I have bought several cars in my life but none has ever given me the service that South Bay has. Ricardo is my service advisor and has taken care of my service since I bought my new Jetta in 2012. They care about you and give great service. I miss Eric, service department manager. I will never buy another car from any other dealer. 

Business response:

This is what we love to hear, Janice! We can't tell you how much we appreciate your continued support.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE. This has to the worst dealership in San Diego. I bought a 2018 VW Tiguan from them in February. My car has so many problems and they do not care at all! The service team is awful and rude. Never resolved any issues, they don’t even want to help you. My car doesn’t start half of the time. I’ve spoken to the owner multiple times he doesn’t even bat an eye. He directs me to VW of America and they don’t help. Now I’m trying to get rid of it! Buying a car from this dealership was the worst ... read more

I just bought a second vehicle from South Bay Volkswagen. I had great customer service with my Jetta, so went back when I wanted to trade in for an SUV. AJ was the salesman. Professional and efficient young man!!!! 

Business response:

Thank you for choosing South Bay VW again, Heidi! We're happy to hear that AJ provided you with a professional and efficient car buying experience. We hope you're still loving your new SUV!

This is the second car I have bought from South Bay VW. They know how to sweet talk u for sure!!! Then u bring ur car in for service and ur treated like sh!$! I WILL NEVER EVER OWN ANOTHER VW because of South Bay. Their customer service is THE WORST!!!!! They are famous for not fixing warranty issues and saying can’t duplicate the problem, even when the service advisors says yes he sees the issue. Good luck to everyone that takes their car there... and if ur looking to buy DON’T!!
