This update is for the Volvo service department only. While my buying experience was the best I've in buying as vehicle, the service department leaves much to be desired. I have taken my Volvo in for regular maintenance and oil changes as per Volvo schedule. I noticed that the paint on my passenger's side door was peeling and had a friend who owns an auto body repair facility to look at the damage. He told me that the vehicle had been wrecked and repaired (previous to my buying it, obviously). I was disappointed that I had not been informed of this by anyone at Volvo, but being such a "reputable" company, I knew I could trust them to fix the vehicle. I called the service department and was told to bring the car in. I had to take it to the repair facility and was given a loaner vehicle do drive with the assurance my vehicle would be fixed and would look like it should. (Mind you, there were several areas on the passenger's side that were flaking paint). Weeks went by and I finally had to start calling every day. The (really nice and HONEST) secretary at the paint facility indicated there might be a problem with fixing my vehicle (remember, it's been in the shop for several weeks at this point). I informed her there would not be a problem and that I would forward the information on the damage to my family attorney. My vehicle was fixed within days, but only AFTER I spoke to several people at Quantrell Volvo and demanded to speak with the owner. Promises were made that the owner would call me back, that he personally wanted to apologize for the inconvenience and misunderstanding. Months later, I'm still waiting. I have had maintenance on the vehicle since then and every interaction seems strained and the staff is rude. Also, they confused their buyer records and filed MY information as another customer with a similar name. Now, a man whom I am NOT married to has my information and I'm listed as his wife. I'm also listed as the owner of a Subaru (I've NEVER owned a subaru) and I was emailed THEIR information. I called to express my concern about the security breach and requested that they update their record. Yet, I continue to receive Subaru emails AND I still have the OTHER female's middle initial. In addition, THE MALE is listed under some of my maintenance records.
I called to make an appointment recently and was met with the same rude demeanor and have finally decided that I will no longer use Quantrell for ANY service-not to buy a vehicle, service a vehicle or any other effort on my part. I have had a MUCH nicer interaction with another company that maintains foreign autos and I'll be using them for my future needs. It's a shame that Quantrell doesn't have a better customer service etiquette AFTER the buy and that their record keeping is flawed to the point of being a security issue. But, you have options in Lexington and the surrounding area. I urge you, if you've had the same experiences, to look past Quantrell. read more
