"Dishonest"
1.2 out of 5 stars
Dealer's knowledgeable

Resolving issues

Whilst the staff are pleasant enough, their service is dishonest. There had been a recall on the vehicles for circa 2yrs but in order to still sell the vehicles (the risk is the car catching fire by the way - not a minor inconvenience!) they didn’t show them as recalled and instead as an ‘inspection’ requirement, all the while knowing full well the car needed a replacement part that they now call me and tell me is urgent and I shouldn’t be driving the car! They also sold the vehicle not in compliance with their own approved used checks (AUC) as the tyres on an x drive need to be rated and within 2mm front and rear - failing to do so can cause a drive-train wrap-up resulting in a £5K+ repair bill. Alleged after sales manager Sam Mellor ignores anything he doesn’t like the sound of even when you send him evidence from another BMW dealer and instead puts the blame elsewhere. Been buying BMWs from BMW dealerships for 25+ years and never had a problem before this. My only choice now is trading standards, the media and considering legal options.

"Absolutely terrible."
1.6 out of 5 stars

Nowhere near the customer service I would expect from any 'premium' company and much, much worse after service. I was told not to bother leaving a review unless it was 10/10 as it was no use to them. Sales staff mildly arrogant despite not looking like they owned an iron . Tried to pressure me into an expensive finance deal even though I was a cash buyer. Reception staff were never on reception. Service reception guy was mainly interested in what was going on with his mobile. This maybe explains why the major issue with my car was not looked at despite being reported in writing and verbally. After this they tied themselves in knots to deny responsibility - all their arguements were challenged and proved nonesense. Managers and senior managers were all involved. A diabolical, unethical and untrustworthy company in my experience.

"Thieves and Liars"
1 out of 5 stars
Dealer's knowledgeable

Resolving issues

I had my M5 taken into BMW Stratstone in Leeds, they diagnosed the car as a total loss due to engine bearings failure (and charged me over £1,400 for the privilege!). I took the car to an independant garage who specialise in performance cars, and they couldn't find any engine damage. The found a failed injector causing the piston chamber to fill up with fuel and fail to run. What kind of dealership are you running Stratstone? Do you need to rip off loyal customers to pay the bills? You had the car 3 months earlier for a full service at a cost of over £1,200 - and this is the way you treat customers? I wouldn't trust their engineers with any mechanical work. I have also lost all faith in the BMW brand after being a loyal customer for over 30 years.

"Avoid at all costs"

My partner bought a 4 series (used) from here at the end of June and the second key was dead - it was returned immediately with all ID required to order a new one from BMW. 6 weeks later and BMW UK have no record of a key order and the dealer is ignoring emails. I would avoid at all costs - Williams or Lloyds seem to offer better service. Lloyds are always superb.

Called in to find out more about the IX3. Nobody knew much about anything. Compare that to Tesla who know what they’re selling and how to sell it. BMW need some training in customer service. Woeful effort today. We won’t be going back to Leeds

"David Hannam "

First and foremost if there was a rating under 1 star it would be given. I have a complaint that I needed to raise with David Hannam which he was supposed to get back in touch with me but not heard a response for the last 3 days as promised by the staff that I would have a returned phone call to discuss this further. I am very unsatisfied with the way things have been handled. I have had my break pads done and the system shows from their side that I have had front ones done but they were done last year and this time round it was the rear ones needing to be done and this was all confirmed over the phone when arranged and appointment. I have been called a ‘liar’ not in this exact way but quoted my information was wrong and my Idrive system is not right but their paperwork is what they have to go by. I am very annoyed with the way the business has handled this situation. All phone calls are recorded and I will be pursuing this further until I have a satisfactory answer to what’s happened. This is not what a customer has to go through especially paying premium rates. You would automatically think the staff and the business would be professional but this is hardly the case.

"WORST DEALER EVER LIE APPALLING SERVICE"

Don’t return calls or e mails. Sold me a bmw 4 series, took my deposit, then told the car had drive train issues. I later found out it was sold to a Mr Graham. Robbie Hagon lies and thinks by ignoring customers they will go away, what a donut. He doesn’t sorn trade ins (v5’s) Management don’t return calls either. I’ll keep posting as many reviews as possible maybe these guys will learn not to waffle & fob of customers using drive train issues. I’ll have the last laugh. Well done for playing this little game. I’ve got Plenty of time on my hands. Entering a contract with someone then not completing a sale? what planet are these guys on! I’m going to let everyone know leaving a deposit means nothing at Stratstone as a dealership.
