Marsgirl73,
I see you are from Kansas City (as I am). I assume you are talking about Baron BMW. My wife and I bought a 3 series from them last Spring, and we plan to buy a 1 series early next year.
Our experience was the same: the CA was GREAT. The accessories manager I could care less for. She never returned my calls, it took
a lot of prodding for me to get what I wanted... Your story sounds so similar. I'd keep bugging her, and I'd make sure someone else at the dealership knows "the trouble" you are having to go through:smile:
I've never been of the mindset to insist trouble for personal gain, but I'd at least throw a "man with all the wait you put me through I should at least get the mats for free" or something along those lines... a shirt... something.

When we arrived last Thursday to pick up the car, our CA informed us that the Sirius was back ordered and hadn't been installed...she gave us a "we owe" sheet detailing that we paid for the Sirius but it wasn't in the car yet. She said she'd call us "either tomorrow (last Friday) or early next week to arrange for the install."
As of today, I still haven't heard anything. Granted, I haven't called, either, but about the only good experience I've had with this dealership has been my CA. Since it's the only dealership in the area, they are fairly notorious for not cutting deals, and I'll be honest and say I'm not the best negotiator when it comes to cars. I guess my question is this...should I wait it out and call at the beginning of next week (my CA doesn't work on Thursdays), or should I wait for them to call me and then demand-- something, anything-- for my inconvenience? If I do that, what should I ask for?
Oh, and still no word on the snow chains, either.  |
