No more loaners???
Trying to schedule service, but I cannot find a BMW dealer offering loaner vehicles Checked a bunch in Florida and even a couple other states. Is this a Covid thing or is this permanent???

i waited for my last service -- just the oil change -- and i couldve sworn i saw someone getting keys at the concierge desk where i've gotten them for previous loaners. maybe call?

Yeah, I'll call the dealer down here in Orlando. Honestly, that is one reason why I buy a BMW or Lexus. I don't have time to wait there for several hours. I need to drop off and continue to customer appointments. I hope this is not the case.

Many dealers also now pick your car up and return it home / office / wherever free of charge. I haven't set foot in a dealership for any of my cars in 2020 and they've all been in for service.

Get this, Fields of Orlando have stated that since I never had a loaner there, they will not give me a loaner, as my service contract ran out last week. Additionally, they will not cover the service, even though I could not get back down to Florida until now due to Covid.
I brought the car in to Fields for new tires last year, but since they did not give me a loaner, I cannot get a loaner now. Seriously. I can't make this stuff up. Now I have to call BMW of North America and try to plead my case in order to get the service covered by the service contract and get a loaner vehicle. I might have to go back to Lexus. At least they take better care of their customers. |
