    They quickly jacked the price up on a 2019 Tesla Long Range they have for sale. It was originally posted on their website at $35,995. It's still the same price on on their preferred financing site, as seen here. They called me after I made a appointment to see the vehicle to tell me they received 25+ inquiries since. They told me they made a mistake while advertising the price and it's actually $39,995. Obviously, this call was a product of greed and no mistake was made. I obviously objected to this and they told me they will do what they want. The reason the price of this vehicle was where it was at is it has a tow away accident on the Carfax report. Please check the report carefully before you purchase this vehicle. I'm not sure if it's illegal to "bait and switch" in Massachusetts and I'm not going to bother looking into it. I'm glad they called me to inform me they are greedy scumbags and they didn't receive my business. However, I will be informing Capital One that they are using their platform to false advertise. I could see them taking a higher price if offered, but raising the price after garnering attention is bad business. Good luck and shop carefully with these guys.

I waited longer than necessary because they asked/requested Veteran plates, that was my mistake. I ended up having to just get any plate on it and 3 weeks later still waiting for the issue to resolve. Other than that, the service is smooth. People are nice, location is convenient. Meter parking but lots of it. Tons, I mean tons of inventory and its super cool cause it's indoors and just so cool. Beautiful inventory Im really bummed about the 1 negative experience but shouldn't take away from their efforts.

Afterward, I obtained additional vehicle history information that I believe was missing from the Carfax provided at the time. I also later learned information suggesting that the prior owner had experienced similar issues before I bought the vehicle. Since purchase, the vehicle has been back to the service department about eight times and has been out of my possession for more than 199 total days. I was repeatedly told delays were due to staffing shortages, but the problems were never fully resolved. The most troubling part was the ongoing antifreeze and oil leaks, along with antifreeze odor and fumes entering the cabin, which began to make me feel ill and raised serious safety concerns for me. When I asked the dealership to take responsibility and take the vehicle back, they refused. Rather than working toward a fair solution, the matter was turned over to an attorney, which I found intimidating and very disappointing. I expected far better from a dealership selling vehicles to the public. Based on my experience, I would strongly urge others to use extreme caution before doing business here.

Of course it isn't. So learning to live with it when the steering, yes steering, went away. Can't turn the wheel. All power assist is out. Luckily I was parked. Had to have it towed and now stuck without a car. So I paid $110k for a brick and when I asked for a loaner I was told "sorry we don't have any". Amended...they immediately called back after posting a few places and I now have a loaner car.

It was done correctly, and I was delayed by…read morea day when my service advisor was out sick (which has no bearing on my review), but the amount that I was charged for labor was simply breathtaking. Breathtaking. The repairs took 6 1/2 hours by one technician (verified by the service manager), and I was billed for 13 at $229/hr (!) for a grand total of $2,975. I had the following repairs: two new 12V batteries, a software update, a coolant flush, and fluid exchanges in the front / rear differentials and transfer case. This work was approved at 8am on a Wednesday and the vehicle was washed and ready by 3pm. When I complained to the manager that I was billed for double the amount of time that the repairs actually took, I was told these bill out at the average time it takes a technician to complete a repair. There were hourly amounts were included in the estimate, but I took it to be just that -- an estimate. However, when scrutinizing the bill, each item was billed out at a boolean hourly quality (1.0, 2.0, 5.0, etc) even if each item took 10 min, or 65 min, or whatever partial hour increments were allotted. In totality, I am simply astonished. This feels incredibly dishonest and by all accounts appears to be padding the bill. Apparently, this mechanic bills out at $500 an hour, which leaves me wondering which law school he went to. This is absurd. I would not recommend Herb Chambers BMW for car repairs, as I feel that their business practices are not honest or honorable.

    I own a 2022 Polestar 2, and my service experience began in late April of 2026 when Polestar…read morecorporate pushed an over-the-air software update to my vehicle, which ended up bricking the vehicle's software/computer system while it was parked in my garage. The alarm went off. The trunk opened itself. The 12 volt battery depleted itself flashing various lights and warnings -- in short, the update fried my car's brain, and it became absolutely inoperable through the direct action of the manufacturer. Total system failure. I had to have it forcibly dragged by winch out of my garage and taken to Polestar Boston on a flatbed. The next day I received a call from someone confirming the car was there and asking why it was there, even though I had delivered all those details the day before by telephone to the dealer and to Polestar corporate and to the towing company and to the roadside assistance company. OK, they don't talk to each other, fine. Then nothing for several days -- no update, no diagnosis, nothing at all until text from someone who said he will know shortly what is wrong. Then nothing again for multiple additional days. I text the number asking for information and get no response. Finally, I call and they tell me that person doesn't even work there anymore and nobody had thought to tell me. They still don't tell me what's wrong with the car or when it will be fixed. At the two week mark, I finally get someone on the phone who says the car is finished. Still nobody has explained to me what service was performed or to explain what went wrong. The person I talk with this time says, straight out, that they know their service operation is a nightmare. Two points for honesty. I thank him for being the best part of a bad experience, and Polestar gets credit for sending a driver to deliver my car to my home and for not charging me for Polestar wrecking my car. Minus a couple points for not offering a loaner or even giving a crap how I would get around while they treated my car as a "we'll get around to it" level priority. When they delivered the vehicle, they assured me the car was 100 percent operational, all systems good. Says so on the receipt. Three weeks later, I walked in to my garage to discover the car is dead again. Same flashing lights. Same system failure. And now Polestar Boston and Polestar corporate say I am on my own. They will not stand behind the car or the repair. It is on me to pay $500 to flatbed my car for a second time to them, presumably so they can charge me to fix what wasn't fixed right the first time. Did the 12 volt battery die? It's possible. But if it did, it's the same 12 volt battery Polestar knew had drained out during the first episode and put BACK IN MY VEHICLE instead of replacing it. What is the lesson here? Don't buy a Polestar. It's buggy, and the manufacturer does not stand behind the product. Even if you own a Polestar, don't go to Polestar Boston -- by their own admission, their service experience is awful. I write this knowing I still may have to take my car there because it's my only choice within 200 miles, but right is right. And they should not get to treat people this way without anyone saying so. Oh, and they have the nerve to give you a receipt that says something about how truly exceptional service is the only passing grade at their dealership. Truly bad service would have been an upgrade from what they gave me. Don't expect any better for yourself.
