I felt very comfortable as if I was hanging out with my

friends! Although everyone is very knowledgeable, no one is intimidating or too serious. It's what buying a luxury car should feel like!

The guy, CJ, was very courteous and knowledgeable and was

a pleasure to work with. The guy that did the paperwork, I can’t remember his name, did a good job and was fun to be around. Cheyenne did a good job showing me how stuff worked. It was a very good overall experience

From the moment that my son drove me to the BMW of

Birmingham, I was nervous and excited. This was the first time in 29 years that I was buying a car without my husband. Conner came out and was polite, great sense of humor and lots of patience. I drove the X3 and it fit me like a glove. I told Conner that I would think about it, but I was sold. Came back and purchased it. Conner went above and beyond to help make this process as easy as can be. I can’t say enough things about this wonderful dealership and Conner. I am one happy BMW owner for life!

The salesman who helped me went above and beyond.

If I refer anyone it would be because of him. The two managers I met one new cars sales manager didn’t seem friendly he briefly stopped stopped by the salesman desk just to say he wouldn’t give me anymore price break. He seemed okay with losing a buyer and was in a rush to get back to where he came from. Strange. Then there was the used car sales manager I met briefly. Downright rude and angry because I had asked about some deep scratches on the back bumper. He basically said take or leave with an ugly attitude and walked away. This car was demo then a courtesy moder so technically wasn’t a used although it was used enough. Thirty inside with spots and smudges all over. If it was not for the wonderful salesman who had detailed and gave me rubber floor mats. I would have never look back at this place. I’m in my seventies I’ve had fair share of my contacts with dealerships. This by far was my worst experience. The last two purchases I were really pleasant but that was in Houston. I know where I’m going to go for my next car.

We carried my daughter’s car in for a recall repair.

After 5 weeks we finally got it back. We had it less than 24 hours and it broke down. Water pump went out. They refuse to repair it without us paying for it because it wasn’t related to the recall even though they replaced a coolant line they damaged while it was in their possession and the motor sat open for 5 weeks waiting on a head repair. BEWARE! Find a different dealer. They can’t be trusted!!!!

Our Sales Manager, Oleg Ghilan, was very informed and

considerate. He managed effective communication exchange and made our transaction seamless and in a timely manner. Excellent professional salesmanship and customer service. Oleg was a true gentlemen and made our experience one that BMW of Birmingham expects for their customers when they enter their show room! If you’re thinking of buying a new BMW in Birmingham, ask for Oleg! You’ll be happy you did!

When we first made contact with the dealership we talked

with a person on the phone who fields calls. We expressed an interest in a vehicle online, and wanted to talk with an experience sales person who was honest and open minded. Immediately we were connected with Valarie Wallace. What I liked the most about Valarie was the fact that she took the time to listen to my husband who is a "real talker". She explained all the details about the BMW X5 that we saw online, and was so patient as we went through the down payment and financing process. Before we got on the road to drive 3 hours to the dealership, she made sure to secure the vehicle from other salespersons. When we arrived, she made us feel important, and didn't rush us through the process. She showed us all the features of the car, made sure it was well detailed and ready when we arrived at the dealership. We will definitely do business with Valarie and the BMW of Birmingham dealership again real soon; we have a graduating college student. (pray for us she wants a BMW too LOL).

Our experience was as pleasant as it could be.

Our first contact was handled by Taylor who was a front runner for Oleg. Taylor was new but she handled us like a seasoned pro. Oleg was on another level for a Sales Experience person. He knew what the vehicle was and showed us a great presentation on an X7 which covered items we had no idea about. Although they did not have what we were looking for, they found it 4 states away and had it shipped in for us. The delivery process was smooth and easy. I actually did not dislike anything about dealing with Taylor or Oleg. I would 100% recommend Oleg to anyone looking for top level knowledge and customer service.

I recently purchased a new car from BMW of Birmingham and

couldn’t be happier with the excellent service that I received. My Sales Associate/Experience Guide, Karreem Battles, provided exceptional, personalized service, guiding me through every step of the car-buying process. Karreem and the General Sales Manager, Ted Layfield, took the time to understand my needs and preferences, offering insightful recommendations, and made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. Their attention to detail and thoughtful follow-up truly stood out. I highly recommend Karreem Battles for a seamless and pleasant car-buying experience!

Oleg Ghilan is a liar!

I had a contract worked out, financing worked out, and was told in writing they would fix the issues that I pointed out last week when we did the walk around. Went in this morning to sign the contract and was told they were not going to fix the check engine light issue. I was told I could take it as is or get my deposit back. Reputation doesn’t mean anything here! Stay away from this dealership!! Habitual liars!!

Quality service from beginning to end.

Friendly, professional, with good team spirit. I especially liked Marion C., Trey, and Kaleb. When dealing with multiple people it can be confusing and dis functional. They were insinc answered all my questions and handled this 75 year old man with care. Let me tell you, I ended up with an electric, I7, 2024 and I am not looking back. The car does that for me.. BMW Irondale. If your looking for an BMW go there, You won’t be sorry.

I traded in my 2022 BMW X3 that I bought from Birmingham

BMW last year for a 2024 BMW X5. My salesperson was Valerie Wallace and she was more than amazing. I was very pleased with my purchase and service that I received on the sales sides. The post sales experience that I have experienced has been horrible, thus the reason for this review. I cancelled the remaining portion of the tire & wheel package that I purchased from the dealership and was told by the finance department (Jarmaine White) that I would receive my refund within 4-6 weeks. After 2 month of not receiving my refund nor hearing anything I tried to contact the dealership NUMEROUS times via telephone with no answer or response to voicemail. I called Jarmaine White (finance person who I completed paperwork with) and I even called the general manager (Kaleb Redmond). I was able to speak with Kaleb once and he stated that he would have the finance department check the status of this and call me back. I never heard back from them. After so many unsuccessful attempts with my local dealership I then contacted BMW USA for assistance. My assigned case manager gave me all the information to contact the third party company who handles the tire & wheel warranties. I agent that I spoke with at Safe Guard informed me that they never received any cancellation paperwork from BMW of Birmingham and asked if I had copies to send to them. I submitted a copy of my documents to get the cancellation processed and received an email from Safe Guard 11/6/23 stating that they have processed my cancellation and submitted a refund of over $2,000.00 to Sonic Automotive (BMW Birmingham) to be returned to me. On 12/6/23 when I have not received my refund I made several attempts to contact Jarmaine White (finance department) and Kaleb Redmond (general manager) to check the status of my refund. Of course they did not answer their phone nor return my phone calls. I called and was able to speak with the service manager (Shay) and he stated that he was going to walk to Jarmaine's office and have him call me by COB. After this I FINALLY received a call from Jarmaine (after 2 months of calls/voicemails) and he acted like he thought this was taken care of and put the blame on the workers in the "back room". He asked me to send him a copy of the cancellation documents via email and stated that he would "expedite" the process and return by call by COB that day. It is now 12/11/23 and I have yet to hear back from Jarmaine. I have contacted BMW USA and am currently waiting for my case manager to investigate what the hold up is. I will say my car buying experience was great; however, the post sales experience that I have experienced has been a nightmare. The post sales experience is just as important or even more important because it is a determining factor for return purchases. This has been my second BMW purchase from BMW of Birmingham and my last. If customer service is important for you I would NOT recommend this dealership. I will make my future purchases at another BMW dealership!

Bought a used Yukon from them and when I got home the DVD

player did not work. I would have never purchased the vehicle if I would have known. I called them and they told me to bring it in. They looked at it and wanted me to take it to a GM dealership to confirm and they would take care of it. I took it in gave them all the information and got led to believe they were going to fix it. They kept making excuses about the part not being in stock. I found the parts local in stock and then they just stopped responding. I will never buy another vehicle there again.

DISHONEST DEALER!

Absolutely the worst car experience I’ve ever had bar none. Management does respond nor care when an issue is presented and refuse to communicate despite multiple attempts to do so through sales people & finance. Bought a vehicle that I was told would be serviced, body damage fixed and tires replaced. Despite writing on the initial WE OWE quick things I noticed and being told they were taking care of them during the paperwork, NONE WERE DONE. Have been mislead and flat out lied to by this dealer on multiple issues and should not have purchased a vehicle with them. The GM Klaeb even tells the staff he’s reaching out to resolve issues and despite MULTIPLE calls, texts for going on three weeks now he has never once reached out. BUYER BE WARE TAKE YOUR TIME & MONEY ELSEWHERE.
