Interesting. The St. Clair Shores dealer is quite new. I believe it opened in spring 2006, not even a year ago. My mom lives just a few miles away.

The general manager was great to work with (he signed my badge apps.) Even the people in the parts department are easy to work with. 15% off parts if your in the MBCA. They stock a lot of fuel filters now (I've went back a few times for them)

The parts manager at MB of SCS is just great. She has chased down obscure little parts for my 73 450 SL and loves the challenge. I have had nothing but great experiences with them. They did my 1985 Service Advisory repair (can you imagine, a 21 year old service bulleting on a 33 year old car !) a couple of months ago and treated me like I was having $1,000 worth of work even though it was a MB recall.

MB of Ann Arbor, MI has new ownership. brand new facility as well. their service dept was rude, and when i inquired about the rusting spring perch problem they said MB USA nor the dealership will EVER touch any MBs w/ original warranty expired. This is after I talked to MB USA and the MB rep told me to contact the service manager for the issue. I wont be going back there again for service.
FWIW, the parts guys there are really nice though.

forget the dealer!
KARL HEINZ AUTO CENTER, MB-BMW-PORSCHE
Royal Oak BOROS Troy 25 years of prestige. MB-SCS may have great service NOW...wait a bit, you'll see that change. they had to get it up & running. don't be fooled by the post regarding all the applicants. they had to temporarliy import the guys with the real knowledge. wait a year. AutoMetrics is a respected collision shop. ******** for your VW/Audi. You'll get no satisfaction from SonicAutogroup. Go to KHAC or BOROS, they'll do it right & they don't need a computer to remember your name. |

What about John Hoelger on 9 mile in eastpointe? I haven't gone to the new dealership on 9 mile in st.clair shores, but I am looking forward to going since now I have a dealership that is only a few minutes away. What a shame no more mercedes of bloomfield for me, there SA's were nice, but there was this younger guy in parts that was very rude.

Years ago I took my 450SL to Boros, he did good work. I had a bit of a personal problem with him. He started doing approved work for free, then didn't want to take the car back.

MB of Ann Arbor has new owners? Guess the Dahm family gave up on the location. I wonder if they still own the BMW store down there. I was on Gratiot last night and noticed Bavarian Motors a Dahm store is only selling pre owned. Also it appears that International Motorworks is moving locations. I wonder where they are moving? Anyone know?

whunter are you currently a praticing technician? When we were at the autocross I got the impression you were, and if so where? If you don't mind me asking I understand from your standpoint it might be self promotion, but from our standpoint it could be valuable info!
