    Helpful. Friendly. Reasonable--- and most importantly they are also a certified Acura dealership. I…read morewas driving through SW Virginia for the holidays when my Acura TSX service light came on. Given that I was planning to drive to the OBX on the same trip, I decided it would be best if I were to have the car serviced while on my 'road trip'. Mind you: my car has ONLY ever been serviced at Radley Acura and I am very particular about my car's service. Regardless, I got what felt like a square deal: no gimmicks of more repairs that needed to be made, they fixed the recall issue on my car (a minor corrosive bolt issue) and were pleasant in doing so. Plus, the waiting room was clean and well appointed. The only downsides of this place were location: a little hard to find if you're not from the area; timeliness: we were there for nearly two hours to have the warranty 'cover' applied, have an oil filter and oil changed, and my tires rotated (we were quoted an hour). Needless to say if you have an Acura and are in the SW Virginia region--- this is a solid dealership in which you can have your car serviced.

    I recently purchased a 2016 Acura ILX from Parks. I hadn't considered an Acura as my next car but…read moremy partner persuaded me to look at this car during my recent search. I'm glad I did. Working with Jim Thomas was outstanding. He defies every stereotype of a car salesman. Personable, funny, knowledgeable. I did not feel like "just another sale". I felt like a very valued customer. I left with a beautiful car and the knowledge that Jim and Parks are going to continue to be there for me as an Acura owner. I hope to drive my Acura for a long time, but when the time comes for something new, Parks has likely earned themselves a repeat customer.

    I paid a total of $1006.06 for one sensor that cost 147.94; the rest was other crap…read more I had a light illuminate on the dashboard, BMW of Roanoke claims it wasn't worthy of warranty (It was). They said because I had a scratch on my door, it voided the warranty of the sensor in that door? What the f***? Is that even legal? I guess if you have a ding on your hood that your engine warranty is voided????? So just to look at my car, nothing else, I had to pay $208.90. Then I was told on a Thursday that the part will be in on Monday and they will call me. So I call them on either Monday evening or Tuesday and they haven't even ordered the part. So then they make me pre-pay for the part (I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF PREPAYING FOR PARTS AND I HAVE OWNED CARS FOR OVER 2 DECADES). Okay, part paid for, It comes in. Well they said it is going to be $581 just in labor "because it is a 3-3.5 hour job" which somehow became $644.78? They kept trying to get me to drop it off (I'm guessing so I wouldn't figure out how fast they can fix it, but anyway that wasn't feasible for me due to living 3 hours away). So they take my car in for my 11am appointment at 11:14, and thanks to their "track my car" tracking app system, I know my car was worked on from 11:14a - 12:16p FOR 1 HOUR AND 2 MINUTES!!!!! So they charged me labor for the repair $644.78 for 1 hour and 2 minutes of labor (remember, I had already paid for the part). So $644.78 is just 1 hour 2 min labor, tax, credit card surcharge, and "$35 shop cost." Little do they realize, I worked for many years as an auditor and I know this isn't permissible on many levels. Also, the person Mike who purchases cars is horrible. He looked at my car without ever speaking to me, then told the front desk to tell me that he would call me with what he would offer me for it. I called 4x and left 3 messages, he never answered his phone or returned my voicemail. So the second time I was there I asked, and I simply stated if he doesn't want it, fine - I will move on. But this level of unprofessionalism and rudeness isn't appropriate. Just say no if you don't want it! BWM issues aren't Parks issues. BMW will be ranked seperately. This is ranking Parks BMW of Roanoke: (5 being good, 1 bad): Value for service: NEGATIVE 100. I paid a total of $1006.06 for one sensor, that cost $140.49, to be installed on my car with less than 19,000 miles. Friendliness of staff: 4 (kind, but not as nice as they should be for $626 a hour labor) Laziness of staff: 1 (they didn't reply to multiple voicemails left. There was almost always 3-5 people standing/sitting around doing nothing but enjoying food/coffee/playing on iphone while charging me $626 for 62 minutes of labor). They clearly have wayyyy too many employees. The vibe of their waiting room: 1 (there were multiple unhappy people in the waiting room both times I was there) Willingness of staff to help you: 0 (this could have been a warranty issue easily, but instead because of a scratch, guess what, it was over $1k out of my pocket for 1 sensor because my car had a scratch in that general area) Loaner vehicle availability: 0 (I was literally told "if you want a loaner, it will mean that our next available appointment is at least a month out.") Notification that you will be charged a 3% credit card surcharge before you get home and realize it: 0 (I had a check with me and would have used it if I was told about the surcharge) Facility Cleanliness: 5 Atmosphere: 3 (unhappy people, uncomfortable chairs, ample charging electronic stations, quiet, nice coffee and snack station)

    Buy here only if you want to lose $4700 in TWO DAYS. @ParksAutoGroup and affiliates:…read more It is worth the read. 1. 1 February 2023 - I was sold a substandard rusty (hidden at the time) Lexus product for $30,350 on 1st February 2023 by Parks Auto Group 2. 2 February 2023 - I was busy and did not get a chance to drive my new to me Lexus. * However, on the drive from where I purchased it to Raleigh the Lexus kept pulling to the right. * I made an appointment at Lexus Durham (my local) to deal with the issue 3. 3 February 2023 early morning - I took the Lexus to Lexus Durham to change the brake shoes if needed (for the pull to the right I felt driving back). * When Lexus Durham got the car on the lift, they highlighted certain significant issues * There is rust everywhere, so bad you could poke your finger through the skid plate...and the rust was hidden under a thick layer of black, sticky rubberizing compound, so even if I looked for rust, I would only see this beautiful rubberized black underside. * I immediately; on the same day brought the product back to Parks Auto Group hoping to cancel the deal, based on these hidden disastrous faults that will impact the drivability and can cause serious safety and big repair issues down the line 4. Despite a robust inspection report from Lexus Durham detailing these issues; the cancellation was declined by Parks Auto Group. * They say it is my fault, and I should have had the product INSPECTED BY A LEXUS SPECIALIST before purchasing. * Essentially I should have driven it to Durham Lexus on a three hour round trip to have it inspected before purchasing * Indicating essentially that you cannot trust the quality of the products Parks Auto Group sells. Everything should be inspected. 5. To 'help' me in my state of disbelief and panic; they offered me a purchase credit of $27,000. * They essentially penalized me $3,350 in TWO DAYS!. * This indicate even they did not want this rusty Lexus back (however I do see that they put it back on their used car website, for $31,000 MSRP. Whoever buys this white elephant better drive to Lexus Durham and have them look at the rusted out bottom....or just take my report I already have from Lexus Durham) * In two days, because I was sold a bad product by Parks Auto Group and decided to Trust them, I lost $3,350 in TWO DAYS! 6. The story should end here, but it does not, listen to this: * I was told that I can get the purchase credit only if I buy something else from them. * They only had crap used or very expensive new cars available. * The only somewhat safe option was a 2021 RAV4 with a moderate damage on its Carfax. At least it had no rust. 7. Subsequently I used my purchase credit on a 2021 RAV4 with a moderate accident on its Carfax as the best of a bad situation. 8. The RAV4 was sold to me at the full MSRP they were asking for the RAV4 ($31,250) PLUS an EXTRA $4,700. Take it or leave it, no negotiation, no other options 9. The alternative was to be stuck with a $30,350 Lexus GX Rust bucket which is my fault for buying because I did not get it inspected as they keep on saying, this is your fault, this is your fault... 10. So, my current situation is that I bought, from Parks Auto Group, part of the Parks Auto Group, a 2021 RAV4 with moderate Carfax damage FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF $35,050. This makes my car the most expensive 2021 RAV4 with moderate Carfax damage in the continental united states. Even CarMax gives you a few days to take a car back, THEY AT LEAST BELIEVE IN THE PRODUCTS THEY SELL. I tried to engage with them and settle without taking this public. The entire management chain at Parks Auto Group declined to help, including a passionate plea to the president of Parks Auto Group; Adam Parks falling on deaf ears. Standard answer, I was stupid signing the contract and trusting them, now go away, we are trying to screw the next customer. I have to forgive them as I'm a believer, but this is a hard hit from a company whose core values supposedly espouse honesty A BIG disappointment!

    After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last…read moreyear, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new stores and restaurants, and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. And Brambleton Imports in Roanoke, Virginia, is the perfect example. After an incident I had with my first salesman there that caused me to loose his trust, I inquired among my friends, community leaders, and business owners, more in depth about their opinion of Brambleton Imports. Every single one of them had a positive opinion and wonderful impression of this car dealership that has been in business for around 30 years and who's founder and owner, Robert "Woody" Woodward, is still involved in its operation. With this excellent background about the business, I decided to return with a retired pilot who was a friend of a good friend of mine, and deal with another sales consultant. For in sales the customer is not owned. He has to be earned all the step of the way. And I am a firm believer of Relationship selling. "Relationship salesmanship, is a sales approach that prioritizes building trust and long-term relationships with customers over simply closing a deal. It involves understanding the customer's needs, offering tailored solutions, and fostering a genuine connection that leads to ongoing partnerships." This second time when we arrived, we found Sales consultant Danny, in his office and went to him. He did an excellent job in listening to both of us, in explaining what they had available at the time, and in taking us for a test drive, first of a Honda Accord and then of the 2022 Lexus ES 350 Luxury Edition, which I ended up purchasing cash, with my 5 years of savings and investing with this goal in mind. After all, I once taught at the university level a very popular course titled: "How to Make Your Money Grow." On the second day, I went to put together the deal. Danny gave me a copy of all the paperwork with the description of the Lexus and one with a photograph of it on top, and a breakdown of the costs and total payment I needed to have the check made. He also gave both my friend and I a Brambleton Imports cap. What is even better, he introduced me to Woody, the owner of the dealership, and wonderful person, who congratulated me for the ownership of my new car, and told me to come by anytime if I needed my car washed. On the third day, Danny understood that it would take some time to gather my high-interest savings and investments, together and transfer the amount to my Credit Union here. As a sign of good intention I wrote a deposit check for $1,000 and handed it to him. Today, we successfully finalized the deal, it was a win/win situation. He not only obtained my business, but what's even more important, my trust and my future referrals. And I received the beautiful Lexus of my dream. His delivery of my Lexus was exceptional. He showed me how some of the basics worked, connected my cellphone Bluetooth with the car, and programmed my home address.
