Nor Cal Service Dealer Options

I have heard that Mountain View is not good for car service. Does anyone have any experience at other dealerships and what would you recommend

PARDON MY LANGUAGE. HELL TO THE MOFO NO AVOID MOUNTAIN VIEW BMW SERVICE LIKE THE PLAGUE.

Warranty Work and Failures :

Metal Galvanized Steering Wheel Trim Bubbles :
What they did : Replaced it.
What they screwed up : 1. Punctured Leather steering wheel between the 5/6 position. Made the heated steering wheel fail by completely discharging the battery while replacing the stupid metal trim....
How they followed up : recharged the battery, then plasterized the leather around the puncture to make it smooth. However the leather is not original and feels rubbery.

HK Bass Failures SIB :
What they did : Nothing except Diagnosis after I have them the SIB. Diagnose that the Bass Booster is the problem. "Supposedly replace the booster" my Bass was Diagnosed today by another BMW dealership that it is weak and not pushing air.
What they screwed up : Never fixed my Bass issue as it's still bad from another BMW Foreman diagnosis. Messed up both Front passenger seat by improperly bolting it back without placing the correct metal trim piece (now another BMW dealer has to fix that). Messed up and scratched my inner trunk and some bumper paint.


So yes Avoid Mountain View Service : I can show you service receipts if your nearby mountain view lol.

Other Options :

Stevens Creek : Closest but also most busy

Fremont : Supposedly better and stands by what they do more then Mountain View even though they are both owned by auto nation region.

East Bay : Apparently most repped.

Peter Pan : Better than Mountain View.
