"Rushed, Dismissive, and Lacking Transparency"
I've visited 4 out of 5 Audi dealerships in the Lower Mainland, and OpenRoad Audi Boundary is by far the worst experience.
On November 3rd, we went in to test drive an Audi Q7, a car we were highly considering purchasing. We had scheduled an appointment with Sia, but he was busy with another customer, and we were handed off to his colleague, Kenny Poblete.
From the start, we felt rushed. Instead of seeing the car first, we were presented with paperwork. Kenny initially withheld the inspection report and only provided the CarFax. When I followed up, the inspection report revealed an issue with the Emergency SOS system that the dealership knew of yet chose not to repair.
During our brief time with the car, we didn’t have enough opportunity to familiarize ourselves with its features, and our test drive was limited to just a few minutes around the block. When I asked about our trade-in multiple times, Kenny brushed it off, refused to look at our car, and only provided a very rough estimate.
Before we could gather our thoughts, Kenny pushed financing options and repeatedly asked if we were ready to buy. Feeling uncomfortable, we requested more time and hoped to speak with Sia again, but despite assurances he would follow up, it’s now been two days without any contact.
Overall, this experience lacked professionalism and transparency. I find it hard to see myself returning for a second appointment, much less buying a car from them. We had a much better experience at Audi Richmond and Audi Langley.
