  • My service experience

    5 out of 5 starsby BeemerOBust on 03/02/2024

    Christine was about to go home when the tow truck pulled my car in. After over three hours of waiting on the side of a busy freeway, I was pretty agitated and not in my best mood. That all changed soon after she took over by working her human touch (not business) to get me back on my way to meet my visiting cousins from New York. She arranged the service car and the replacement part and withing couple days, I was back in my beloved i4. She saved the weekend.

  • Overall pretty good experience

    4 out of 5 starsby King7245 on 02/05/2024

    Overall was pleased with my purchase. Was a 5 hour day. A large Part of it was because we were going back and forth on how much my trade in was worth. They ultimately met me on the price I was looking for but took a while to get there. One part I didn’t like was when I signed the contract for an out the door price, and we spoke about the warranty and everything included with the sales guy, then I went to finance and they want to get you on all kinds of extras charges which is good because for paying that price you want ultimate coverage but it added an additional $20-30 to my monthly which I was not expecting. So make sure to ask all the questions to the sales guy about the warranty and what is covered BEFORE you go to the back with finance.

  • NEW BMW i5 M60

    5 out of 5 starsby BMW i5M60 on 01/14/2024

    BMW Carlsbad is my go to dealership in the Southern California area. I have purchased 3 BMW's (2021 X6M; 2022 x3; and 2024 i5 M60) all in past three years and have not regretted a moment since. Service advisor Nick Munoz sold me all three cars and have enjoyed them all immensely. If you are in the market for a BMW, especially an M series, you must go to BMW Carlsbad and request Nick Munoz. Nick is straight forward, honest and he will teach you all you know about your new car. Best genius advisor on the lot.

  • Not A Fan

    3 out of 5 starsby kathy05 on 01/07/2024

    I had an appointment to meet Fred at BMW Carlsbad to cash buy a 2022 Toyota Rav 4, I walked into the dealership, thinking that they would greet me to see if I needed anything. I stood at the entrance of the new car side, there were about 6 white salesmen there, did anyone of them ask me if i needed any help, not one. I was pressed for time, cause i had flew in from Maryland so i was tired. I finally asked them to get Fred, and it took about 6 hrs to complete a cash transaction. I understand that they have to try to sell you the service package but they tried too hard. Don't get me wrong the car was great, but the process and the customer service fro their salesmen standing around leaves me not impressed. That's the reason i hate dealing with car dealerships, and try to do everything before i get their cause i don't want to hear their BS. Fred my salesman was great, but he is new.
  • Don’t buy from Carlsbad BMW

    1 out of 5 starsby PEKelly on 01/05/2024

    Unprofessional sales people. Can’t find listed cars, claim cars are CLO, but at purchase time they are not. 5day 500 mile give back, no flexibility. We took x7 skiing, called them in 2 days, 380 miles we didn’t want it but that it takes 380 to bring back to them. Manager said “too bad”, they will buy back at $13k less than purchased. Bad
    • Hi Pekelly, we regret your experience with us here, but are glad you brought this to our attention. Our General Manager would really like to help turn your experience around. If you would be willing to give us another chance, please contact our GM at (760) 335-6124 to discuss what we can do to help.

  • Oil Change plus

    5 out of 5 starsby BMW 330e on 12/08/2023

    Notices were received from the. Car advising an oil change was due. Had not used BMW of Carlsbad before. Easily booked the service. Arrived at their new facility and found it very impressive. The service advisor was very pleasant, listened carefully to my requests. Since there was slight wear on the right front outer tire, I requested them to check the alignment. An Uber was arranged and arrived in 3 minutes. I returned at the end of the day and picked up the newly washed car. Oil change, brake fluid change, alignment and safety check. No hassle, no attempt to up-sell! Just pleasant, friendly people, good coffee in a spotless setting. What’s not to like?
    • Hi, it is great to read such wonderful comments about your recent experience with us! As one of our valued customers, we want to sincerely thank you for your business and we hope to see you here again down the road!

  • 30 minute wait time

    1 out of 5 starsby Mplsave on 12/06/2023

    The service manager I worked with was amazing and the whole experience of getting our car serviced was great until I had to wait 30 minutes for someone to get the car from the parting garage. It was finally delivered by someone who was out on a test drive. In the meantime there were service people standing around doing nothing. I asked three different times if someone could get my car. This resulted in no change or sense of urgency by anyone. I even talked to the service manager and he politely brushed me off. It is terrible that my whole experience of working with the service group was tainted by something as simply getting my car from the parking garage.
    • Hi, we appreciate you taking the time to respond. The staff at BMW of Carlsbad take our reviews very seriously. We strive to maintain excellent business relations at our dealership. Please call our General Manager at (760) 335-6124 to discuss ways we can work towards resolving this issue to your satisfaction. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

    5 out of 5 starsby Goose66 on 12/04/2023

    Service review. I really liked the service walk around video that was sent via text message. I was able to see my vehicle from a different perspective. The service technician spoke clearly as he performed the diagnostic review of my vehicle. Thank you.

  • Service on my 2021 M3

    5 out of 5 starsby Kavehh81 on 12/01/2023

    I went to see about servicing my 2021 M3 with Stefano Ceccarelli for injectors. Stefano went above and beyond to make sure that my car was taking care of and everything was at factory level requirements. I can not emphasize how great it is to work with Stefano and someone that I can trust with my car. I highly recommend going to see Stefano at BMW of Carlsbad for any car needs.
    • Hi, thanks so much for the warm recommendation of the team here at BMW of Carlsbad. We hope to be of service to you again in the future. Best wishes, BMW of Carlsbad
