one of my father's cars is a 2005 Lexus RX330 which has currently 27k miles. It is over due for an oil change but i did notice a hummming either the powersteering or AC... not too concerned about it since it seems a bit minor and i still am within the factory warranty so i email Lexus of Glendale to schedule a simple oilchange and to check out the hummming sound [x] and clicked on the box for a free carwash I get a response email saying oh yeah we schedule an appointment for your 30k mile service its ONLY $499.99 !!! So i emailed them professionally stating i just needed a simple oil change and just to peep out that hummmming sound and i get a response telling me " Oh sorry you are scheduled only for that service WE DO NOT PERFORM JUST A SIMPLE OIL CHANGE SERVICE ANYMORE ??

didnt know my dads lexo was stunna status like a japanese cheyenne or something

WTF?? !!!!


wish we had good service in lexus as we have for our nissans

 

Avoid any of the Glendale dealerships..they're pure crap.

 

Funny thing is, $499 is a good price for the 30k service from a Lexus dealer. Newport Beach and Tustin Lexus wanted over $800 for the same thing. 30k is basically changing all the fluids...what a rip

 

what do you expect stealerships FTL

 

ouch man... only if all the dealerships were as friendly, helpfull as west covina nissan... lol im thinking of staying with nissan just because of west covina nissan and this forum... and honestly, i wouldnt consider any car from nissan except the z...

 

i know about the prices on service and i know for higher end cars it would cost a bit more i didnt mind that i just felt that they were trying to just sell me the 30k service to make money

i think it is pure nonsense that a dealership like them cannot just perform a simple oilchange which i have done in the past over there a few times

it just seems like they want more money

 

Not even the GT-R?

 

lol... cant afford the GT-R.....

 

mmm i want me a GT-R

 

 

Sorry for the 500 dollar oil change.. FTL.. Nice new avatar though.. BTW i got my bumper just waiting on the install.. Havent forgot ya!!

 

I would avoid Lexus of Glendale. Charge alot and still can't fix a simple oil leak on my Lexus GS300 (1st Gen). Hell, even I did a better job myself fixing the leak.

 

I was quoted $550 to change all the fluids (exept tranny, 100k maintenance free tranny ) on my 2002 330i. I then ask for a loaner and the dealer didn't give out "loaners". I can't wait to sale that POS. I want a simple Japanese car. I think I will replace it with a MS6 or a TSX.

 

my parents friend is a lexus factory certified mechanic with his own shop here in la crescenta if you ever wanna take the car somewhere else, ben. let me know.

 

TSX FTW! go baller status and get the TL Type-S thats a dope car!

 

TL-Type-S is a sweet car. When I had my CL Type-S I got the TL-S as a loaner and man was that thing bada$$.

Lexus of glendale FTL for not paying attention to what the customer wanted!

 

That's how dealerships make money, especially when they produce reliable cars that never see the service bay other than for their scheduled services.
