The customer care offered by VW of Des Moines is out

standing! Emrah is exceptional in taking care of his customers. Ask for him by name and you will be very happy that you did!

I took in for an annual service, oil change.

Rep told they would top up engine coolant. They did not even top up, coolant is just at min level as before. I am not sure if they really took care of my car and have done all inspections as they said

AJ was the best salesperson I have ever encountered when

purchasing a new vehicle! He is so knowledgeable about many vehicles besides VW’s to help in comparison to this vehicle so I could make a more informed decision! I did not feel pressured at all. I have had some bad experiences with car salesmen in the past who didn’t appreciate the fact that a woman can make her own deal without her spouse’s help! I would recommend this dealership to anyone looking to buy a VW. Thank you for making it a truly enjoyable experience!

I service my golf tdi at this dealership.

I have never had a problem with them that they didn’t resolve to my satisfaction. My current service advisor even returns phone calls which is something rare for people his age, typically it’s just texts that folks that age return.

I love this place!

They treat you with respect and go the extra distance to ensure that you feel valued as a Customer. Often people in the car sales and service business seem to look at customers as a “sheep ready to be fleeced”, but this group obviously goes to great lengths to be different, to be your friend in the business, making certain that you understand all aspects of the process and what services are required, explaining cause and effect and viable options.

The dealership worked to finish my car in one day.

They also sent a Lyft to pick me up when it was finished. When I arrived, I was greeted by Noah who made sure I was able to complete the check out process. I appreciated his kindness. The repair was explained to me which will allow me to know what to do in the future.

We even had a salesperson talk through potential options for our daughter when she purchase a vehicle this fall. He was not pushy, just informative & helpful. Great experience.

Noah, our salesman was helpful and knowledgable. We weren't looking to buy that day, but the salesman walked up to us on the lot, and after walking away from 4 other dealers, we took a test drive and drove home in a 2024 Taos.
