Default DO NOT GO TO ANCHOR AUDI! WORST EXPERIENCE!

I bought a car there because they had the car in stock... the worst shopping experience I had, anyways, the after sales service is even worse. "Sue me!" thats what the manager (Mark) there said responding to my complaints.

I do not suggest anyone to go there to buy a $40k car with that kind of customer service.

Default it's really pathetic that between biener, anchor, riverside, etc..

they are absolutely DISMAL dealerships with NO IDEA of how to treat customers.

I remember going back to Detroit last October, and helping my mum buy a B8 A4....and the dealerships in detroit were SO SO nice....so helpful, and without these attitude games and annoying conversations that you get out here....

Biener is the worst i think. Just terrible.

Default Thx for the warning - I find that most NY-area Audi sales people are effing

clueless about their products and act as if they're doing you a favor by spending a smidge of their "valuable" time with you. I've had much better sales experiences at reputable wholesalers.

If I were AoA, I'd be very concerned - but until we stop buying their cars, they probably won't give a sh_t.

Default Can you elaborate, what were your complaints?

I had 2 minor post-sale complaints (rear brake pads and wipers) at another tristate dealer; both were replaced without charge.

Default Re: What were the issues with the car?

I bought this car online and exporting it to canada, I paid for the shipping charges and the dealer shipped the car to the border. When I picked up the car, found out the following:

1. the car which was listed as 7400 miles on the website/invoice, when I checked in person, it is 8100 miles. Mark, the manager, told me that people test driving the car.... so I paid the car in full and he let people to test drive my car?! he said he could write me a new invoice with 8100 miles...

2. The sales rep told me he will provide me with the temp plate so I could drive the car after I picked up. No temp plate at all. I could stop by US custom and Canadian custom by driving without plates... Mark said too bad...

3. I was told by the sales rep (Sanjeev) that the body has no stone chip, no dent, no scratches. I actually found a stone chip on the hood. Mark told me it could happen when transporting, I told him I already checked with the transporter, the stone chip was already on when he picked up the vehicle (signed off by Anchor Audi). Mark then told me if I have any written document to prove if the sales rep told me the car has no stone chip watsoever... I said no, I called his rep on the phone, I took his words. Mark said I wasted his 17 minutes on a used car and hung up on me with the "sue him" comment.
