Overall great experience
byon 05/16/2018
I recently purchased GLC300 from this dealership. My sales person was Jose Severino. The sales and delivery process went very smoothly. Jose explained all new safely features of the car and patiently answered all our questions. Overall a very good experience.

Don't go here. worst customer service
byon 07/11/2017
I bought a C300 2015 , car has had a world of problems & the service manager & reps are the worst. I brought my car back so many times & they never fixed the problem, I had to bring it to another dealer for them to actually fix it. Also had tickets sent to me because they drove through ez pass. The service manger basically told me the rep paid it & they didn't tell me till weeks after I had kept calling & asking about it. They made it seem as if I did something wrong. Completely disrespectful & unprofessional. Don't buy a C300 or any car from here. Worst benz dealer in North Jersey.

Excellent Car, Very Poor Delivery Experience
byon 04/27/2016
I rarely take to the Internet to express negative experiences but this one bears telling. I purchased a CPO 2013 SL550 from Open Road of Bridgewater and took delivery on March 22nd 2016. My salesman was Jarred Manzone. Because I bought the car out-of-state, I conducted the negotiation for the purchase via telephone and email, ultimately agreeing on a price. I took care of financing myself through USAA's car buying service so the dealership provided no services to me vis a vis financing. They were paid for the car, extended warranty, taxes, and state fees almost 7 days before I picked it up. I flew up to Newark from Indiana the morning of March 23nd, and was picked up from the airport by Jarred, who took me back to the dealership to begin delivery (the gesture was much appreciated.) The process took all afternoon during which the finance representative, Nick Powell, attempted to upsell me various third party warranties and services (I had ALEADY purchased the maximum duration CPO extended warranty through Mercedes Benz and given the dealership my money for it). Throughout the course of the delivery experience, I had to remind Jarred several times about items the car should have been delivered with (keyless GO adapter, owners manual, floor mats, SiriusXM and Mbrace activations etc). In the interest of fairness, I would like to mention that Jarred was attentive and professional throughout the sales process. Because I was out-of-state, I pestered him with questions remotely for a couple of weeks and he was always polite and helpful. Ultimately, after spending the entire afternoon in the dealership, I was forced to accept the car without working Sirius and no MBrace. Instead of activating these services for me ahead of time, as the local indianapolis MB dealer does, they left this until the last minute and discovered the car would require at least another hour in the dealership's service department. It was already the end of the day and I was on a tight schedule to get the car back to Indiana. These two items had to be repaired and activated by another dealer in Indianapolis after I got home with the car. This left me without the use of the car for two days. Because Open Road took responsibility for registering my car with the state of Indiana, I took possession of the car with a 20 day New Jersey "Drive Away" tag that expired on April 10th, 2016. As that date approached and I still was without Indiana plates for the car, I contacted the dealership and was given the run around for over a day until my salesman texted to inform me that they were missing a document (VIN Clearance from Indiana State Police proving the car wasn't stolen). This I had already provided and have a return receipt for it signed by an "R. Cofield" at the dealership, well in advance of the temp tag expiration. I did get another original of this document signed by a Hendricks County (Indiana) deputy sheriff and overnighted it to the dealership via FedEx, who confirmed delivery. On April 11th, I lost the use of my car because it would be illegal to drive it on the expired temp tag and Open Road has still failed to register it. I have made numerous calls to the dealership that go unreturned, including to the General Manager, Michael Tedesco, who has been completely unresponsive. The last communication I've received was a text message from Jarred Manzone telling me that the process was in the hands "of the Service". It is now April 27th, 2016 and the Indiana BMV has no record of any attempt by the dealership to register my car and I cannot drive it. They have had my money with which to pay the sales tax and registration / license plate fees since before I took delivery of the car. I did elevate my complaint to MB-USA, and while they were attentive to my problem, they were unable to offer any assistance other than contacting the dealership on my behalf. The representative, Royce, spoke with the pre-owned sales manager, Issac Morgan, who promised would contact me, but absolutely did not. With no other options apparent to me, I've been left to retain a lawyer to sue the dealership so that I can regain the use of my new car. I've been driving Mercedes Benz cars exclusively since a w126 560SEL saved my life in 1993 and have since owned 9 of them. My w140 S500 has over 325,000 miles on it. My r129 SL500 has almost 200,000 miles. I have no issue with the brand; Mercedes Benz makes world class automobiles. This dealer, however, has proven unworthy to represent the brand. I would not recommend this dealership to an enemy, much less a friend of colleague.

Valuable Advice with Mike
byon 12/03/2014
I purchased at C300 and took quite some time to make a decision. Michael Vurchio was very patient with me and offered valuable advice. When negotiating, he offered a very good deal and the negotiations went very smoothly. Customer service has been great and would definitely recommend them others.

A Great Experience
byon 11/30/2014
Being a women entering a dealership is a hard thing to do. At the other stores I visited the salesmen there kept asking me if my boyfriend or husband will be coming in to help with the purchase. I was getting very fed up with the whole buying a car situation, but then I met Michael Vurchio. He treated me like I was family, he was not pushy, he just delivered the facts about purchasing a Mercedes. So I did purchase a Mercedes from Mike even though I raised my budget over 20,000 and can not be happier that I met a true professional.

Blown Away by Nick and Open Road MB
byon 11/02/2014
I leased my first Mercedes from Nick Powell at Open Road MB. I could not have asked for a better experience. It was my first ever lease and I had a ton of questions. Nick was patient, caring, honest, transparent, and provided the greatest customer service possible. Although I live almost 2 hours away, I will never go anywhere else for my vehicle needs in the future. My family and I will be customers of Nick and Open Road for life.

A Memorable Experience with a Noteworthy Team
byon 09/12/2013
I was absolutely astounded that I could trade in a vehicle, shop for a vehicle, and depart with a vehicle - all in one afternoon. This required a coordinated and seamless effort by a team of people, each of whom was genuinely interested in helping us find the right vehicle and cognizant of our every need. This polite and polished team could teach a course in teamwork!

An extremely pleasant experience
byon 05/14/2013
An absolute lovely experience dealing with Neil G. This is our first luxury purchase. I/we spoke to a few dealers over the phone before paying a visit and rightfully so. From the moment I had my conversation with Neil, he was very pleasant and very attentive to our budget. We were given 100% no obligated attention with a test drive. Not only did we purchase the vehicle, but they delivered it too with a big red bow (my wifes early birthday present), which I promised that Ill return. Bottom line, when we are financially ready to purchase another luxury vehicle, we will only return to Open Road. Thank you Neil for making this happen.

Great Shopping Experience !!
byon 09/29/2012
Overall I could not be happier with our decision about purchasing my new GLK 350 from Open Road. Bob ( car manager ) and Marks ( Sales) effort in helping us navigate through all the normal questions was above and beyond what we have come to expect from the car buying experience. They are a true asset to Open Road as well as us. To sum it up they were wonderful, we felt no pressure to purchase. We felt they were honest and transparent, people that you can trust. The day we stopped in we had no idea that we would be purchasing a car. We spent 8 hours with them, the dealership remained open after hours for us. Were not there to buy but look, we only went to one dealership; Open Road. In the end we were so satisfied we purchased two autos; one for me GLK 350 and my wife C300. I have a feeling this is something that does not happen everyday.

Best Salesman - Michael Frustaci
byon 09/10/2012
By far the nicest person I have ever met in sales!! My father had purchased a brand new Mercedes for the first time in his life and he was just the happiest person in the world but Michael helped make his dreams come true! My father does not speak English very well and Michael was so patient with him in trying to explain every aspect about the car.. he was a complete pleasure! I felt Michael was on our side throughout the entire process and he even helped work with the price as much as he could.. I cant thank him enough for going out his way to meet my father to explain more stuff about the car ON HIS DAY OFF!! there needs to be more people like him in this world!

Great Experience
byon 09/10/2012
A few months ago I leased my E-350 from Open Road in Bridgewater. From my internet inquiry to the delivery of my car the whole process went smoothly. My salesman Mark G. was knowledgable and the sales managers (Paul and Isaac) were complete gentlemen. When it came time for the delivery of the car another sales manager named Carl helped show me all of the features and spent enough time with me until I felt comfortable using it. Carl told me that he started his career with Mercedes in the mid 1970's (almost 40 years of experience). After all is said and done it's safe to say that they have my business now and in the future.

This dealership was a pleasure to work with during the sales process. There was no pressure from the sales team and they offered a great price from the beginning. Anthony Lire, General Sales Manager, and Jorge Rivera, Sales Associate, where extremely helpful and did their best to get me the best price.
