If you value you sanity steer clear of this dealership! I bought a car off the last December picked up the car on a Saturday afternoon and started my drive home within minutes of getting on the motorway I realised there was an issue with the steering. I called them first thing Monday morning and was told the soonest they could get the car in would be Friday as they didn't want to upset clients ( I don't know what that made me). Took the car in Friday morning went out with an engineer who alluded the problem was down to condensation in the tyres ( complete b***ocks) anyway left the car with them had a call Saturday afternoon and set off to pick up the car, they had changed the front tyres, 5 minutes on the motorway same issue after having an engineer take the car out and finding no issue ( probably on crack or something as the fault was so obvious). Called them on Monday and asked for my money back under the 2015 consumer rights act. I was offered by the salesman Kieran another car same model that was a year older and had 15,000 miles more on the clock but I would have to pay a further £4,000 ( i think this time he thought I was on Crack), declined this marvellous offer, the spoke to Omar who said he was willing to give me a part exchange however my car was now after a week £3,700 less than what I paid for it.(again he thought I was on Crack). Eventually after numerous calls I was contacted by Jodie Evans the manager and she point blank refused me a refund, and that was it! At this time my daughter had been in hospital 7 months and the stress was getting to me so I decided to send an email asking for the car to be fixed, no reply didn't answer my calls either, I had to call Mercedes Benz UK to get them to book me in for another garage visit, I opted to go to MB Huddersfield who had the car in 4 times replacing drive shafts, steering rack and various other things without fixing the issue which was getting worse, the last visit I had there they said they couldn't do anything more and I would have to contact MB Wakefield after several calls and emails one of which I literally begged Jodie Evans to get the car rectified nothing no return calls or emails. Therefore I started a facebook campaign and posted how I had been treated on every post MB Wakefield made, and called Mercedes Benz Uk twice a week for two months till I hade a response and they took the car in turns out the rear differential needed replacing, knowing how dangerous and lethal this was I was shocked, took a month for this to be replaced. Picked the car up drove home the initial fault was still there and the engine warning light came on drove back to Wakefield another week in the garage, and they never fixed the initial fault. I now drive an Audi. Do not go to these people to buy a second hand car you will regret it.

have had 3 dealings with this garage regarding repairs and I shall summarise each on: First repair they carried out was a new door actuator on the passenger side door of my 2016 G-Wagon. Fitted then brought back in and since it was fitted the door knob that pops up and down when the car is locked / unlocked sticks out an incorrect angle and obviously hasn’t been refitted correctly . Brought this to attention when the car was brought back in however on collection it was not resolved. Issue 2: brought my vehicle in to be assessed for rust under MB warranty. They told me they had a specialist who comes in, assesses it and does a report. What I actually got was a verbal quote from Evan’s Halshaw accident repair on the cost to fix it, with no details of what rust would actually be repaired. Neither the girl in the garage or the main service bloke knew how to interpret the quote to tell me what I would be paying for. How can a garage like MB expect a customer to agree to work with some half assed verbal quote. To this day I have received no documentation regarding this rust assessment. Why? Issue 3 : Brought my car into Wakefield for routine service covered by my service plan. In the days following collection i found a huge oil leak coming from under the car. They urged me to bring it down immediately. The issue was a split fuel line and they repaired it “free of charge” with no explanation on how this has happened or how the car was released back to me without anyone noticing this. Now this is where the main issue starts. Since the new fuel line has been fitted my car no longer turns over and starts like it did before. It can take up to 5x longer for the car to start to the point it takes so long you think it’s not going to start. I’ve taken the car back down 2/3 times since and they are adamant there is no issue and basically imply I don’t know what i am talking about. My final dealing the main service manager got heated and he basically said if I’m not happy maybe I should find a new garage next time. I didn’t manage to get his name but he is a rude, arrogant, piece of work who likely is able to fob a lot of customers off however I won’t be fobbed off on this and shall escalate it as high as I can if needs be so someone is held accountable for returning my vehicle in a worse state than what it arrived when all it needed was a routine service. If you want reliable repairs carrying out on your car I strongly advise you to take it to a better dealership than Wakefield as they truly are terrible.

I am surprised that you keep sending me emails asking for my opinion on your service. It was that bad, I was embarrassed at being ripped off, so wasn’t going to write anything, but seeing as you keep asking, here it is. I’m probably one of many unhappy customers Mercedes of Wakefield won’t want to hear from. I’d sent a detailed complaint via email about a week after I collected the car, about being sold an unroadworthy car. Sorry but I’m not explaining it all again. I was under some sort of illusion that I could have expected higher than average customer service when buying a 30k car. Even though I knew I would not see a red carpet, I expected a red-carpet experience. Instead, it felt more like the rug was whipped out from beneath my feet. It began and finished with a salesman who did not deliver on many things he told us would be happening. I was lied to from start to finish. I did nothing to make the sale awkward, I accepted everything you said, and paid the full asking price. After my email, the absolute shocker was when I had a call from the manager. Although I wasn’t expecting an apology, I would have thought there would be one, but there wasn’t. She admitted we had been let down by your service. Although I could have taken the car back to do all the work that should have been done in the first place, I didn’t want to. If you can’t do it right in the first place, why am I going to trust you to work half-heartedly on this car under duress??! I asked for a good-will gesture, but this was deemed unacceptable so she halved it, and get this, I could only have that bit on the condition that this rectified all the mistakes and I had no future claims! Instead of saying something like ‘let us know if we can be of any further help to resolve any of the ongoing issues’, there was nothing of the sort. Disgusting from start to finish. You deserve to be closed down, and re-apply for your jobs again. Bye bye.
I would like to thank this dealer for an outstanding level of service within the sales team. I would especially like to thank Komal for locating me a car that I was looking for months and she found me a car within a short period of time. Komal was brilliant from start to finish, she was very bubbly, efficient, polite very professional with the result of helping me find a brand new car within an hour, I would also like to thank Kieron for keeping me update and helping me decide which way best suits me to financing this car and also help during the process with the admin side. I would like to thank once again to Omar for his help and not been a pushy business manager which i experience with another dealer that I cancelled my purchase from. Thank you MB of Wakefield for an excellent customer experience during my time purchasing my new C300 Premium Plus. PS I do love my new car and will defo come back if I want to purchase another MB. Highly recommend this dealership.
Very good stress free purchase of a new vehicle, Hashim was very knowledgable and extremely helpful in making it such a pleasurable experience with the transaction. Highly recommend.

After 25 years with Mercedes Benz cars, Wakefield has come top. Bianca our sales executive has been incredibly helpful, very informative and knowledgable. From the moment we entered the showroom, we were made to feel relaxed and comfortable. Very professional and nothing too much trouble. Thank you everyone.

Watch this bunch! Wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them. Paid deposit on £21k used Merc, drove 200mile round trip to view the car and agreed/signed the sales contract with collection day mutually agreed upon. Sold old car & cancelled insurance, took out insurance on new car, day arranged off work and transport organised. Contacted dealership day before collection only to be told they’d agreed to sell our car to someone else! Dealer principle Luke Cairns was completely ineffectual, unprofessional & uncaring as were Pendragon Plc. I wouldn’t even consider buying a toy car off this lot! We will be calling by next time we’re in the Doncaster or Wakefield area to tell you in person ahead of further action!

Always deal with Adam in parts department, the man really knows his job inside out and very knowledgeable. What he doesn't know he will find out for you. Friendly, efficient and polite. Also always a pleasure to deal with Samantha, Service Advisor. Nothing too much trouble and always goes the extra mile to help. When car goes in for service it always comes back like a new pin.

Had the pleasure to buy a used car from Bianca at Wakefield mercredes today nothing was ever a problem no matter how small my query . Such a bubbly personality and nothing like you get buying from London , made a 4 hr train journey for a 4 hr journey home and the treatment from start to finish was well worth the journey , Bianca is a credit to the company and will be recommended to friends and family wishing to buy a mercredes in the future even if the journey is long . Thank you so much for a wonderful experience
