Has anyone else experience incredibly poor service and serious incompetence at MB Bromley Beckenham branch?
I’ve had a number of poor experiences with them so much so that I contacted MB customer service and reported the appalling service I had received.
The most recent was a simple change of nearside headlight bulb prior to a long distance trip over to the westcountry.
Near side not working after £38 and 60 mins at MB Bromley now both dip beams are NOT working!
That is just the latest in a catalogue of incompetence.
Everything from being told my car didn’t have rain sensors “fixed by a MD dealer in FRANCE!!”
To being told my inlet manifold had an oil leak and would cost £2000 to replace. “When it appears the oil was actually due to oil spill following top up. Jet washed and confirmed at MB Dealer in France”
Also what I am realising is that the MB system of check in with a service reception person and then handing over keys only to get keys back and never meet the technician/mechanic is infuriating as is the bizarre awkward customer interaction.
Also has anyone else noticed how the sales staff fanny around don’t want to talk to customers, I mean I was there for 45 mins looking at the new cars whilst they replaced / cocked up the bulb replacement and not one of them even bothered to ask I needed any info or help they couldn’t even look me in the eye.
My Mercedes experience has over the years got worst and worst.
I’ve complained to MB but I don’t think it’ll make a jot of difference.
What was a surprise was that MB dealers in France actually have been 100% competent and 100 times friendlier.
Maybe it’s just a Bromley South London thing.
Has anyone else got any ideas are AUDI or BMW any better?
After 20 years with Mercs I’ve now pretty much given up.
