    I have a 2009 Audi A3 3.2. Griffin is not only doing the scheduled maintenance, they are helping me with modifications as well. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, the work is always well done and they are guiding me to adventures I can have with my car as well!

    Terry reached out and went above and beyond on my behalf. Being in business is tough. I was told conflicting information about my seat. I am in the Griffin waiting room and my seat is being replaced. I am happy to say Griffin Motorwerke stands behind their products and their service. Thank you.

    Curly and the crew hooked me up right quick! I called in the afternoon to get a Revo tune on my Mk7 GTI and they had me out the door that evening. Had a great time chatting with the Griffin team while I was waiting and learned a lot about what I can do for my GTI in the future. Thanks for the great service, knowledge, and results!

    Hands down the best speed/mod/service shop in the Bay Area. Staff is friendly and honest, no high pressure sales either. They're willing to discuss varying options for your vehicle, from mild to wild. Stop by and have a chat w/Nate or Curly for your next build. They'll explain everything in detail and address any questions or concerns.

    Great work done by the mechanics. Have done work on my last too cars. More so on my Audi S3. Coolant system, brakes, suspension systems, along with harness for track duty.

    Brought my m5 VW R32 to Griffin for a rear sway bar and a Gen2 Haldex controller and couldn't be happier with the performance of the vehicle now. The guys at Griffen are honest, hardworking, and super legit. I'll be bringing my vehicle here for every service from now on.

I purchased a 2012 Jeep Wrangler from this dealership for around $18,000. During the sales process, the staff was very friendly and welcoming to the family. I was told the vehicle came with a 24-month / 24,000-mile powertrain warranty, and I was reassured that if anything went wrong I could bring the vehicle back and it would be taken care of. Unfortunately, my experience after the sale has been the complete opposite. After driving the Jeep only about 2,200 miles, the vehicle broke down and had to be taken to a Jeep dealership for diagnosis. I was then informed that the vehicle needs a major repair to the powertrain wiring harness, which is estimated to cost about $5,000. Despite the fact that this issue involves the powertrain wiring, Berkeley Honda has refused to help with the repair and claims that the issue does not fall under the powertrain warranty. What has been even more frustrating is the lack of communication and accountability. When it was time to sell the vehicle, everyone was very responsive and helpful. But once the problem appeared, that support disappeared. Calls have gone unanswered and emails have been ignored. I have only made three payments on this vehicle before this major issue occurred. Now I'm facing a $5,000 repair bill on a vehicle I just purchased, and I've had to take BART to work while trying to figure out how to afford the repair. At this point I am filing complaints with the California DMV and other consumer protection agencies so the situation can be reviewed. My advice to anyone considering buying a used vehicle from Berkeley Honda: * Have a trusted third-party mechanic inspect the vehicle before purchasing * Carefully review what the warranty actually covers * Do not rely on verbal assurances during the sales process I regret trusting the promises that were made during the purchase. I hope sharing this experience helps other buyers make a more informed decision.
