Foreign Traffic has performed work on my vehicle. I own a 1994 Swedish car. Because of the age of the car I don't want to put a lot of money into repairs. Also finding a place that understands how to diagnose problems with this car is not easy. When I bring the car in for service they diagnose it quickly. I had a problem with an obsolete part and they worked very hard at fixing the car without replacing the part. I had other problems with some connections to the ABS sensor and instead of replacing the part they fixed the existing part. That saved me money. I am happy with their service and as far as I'm concerned have never been over charged. They are courteous, the place is clean. I will continue to bring my import to Foreign Traffic.

This business does not only try to rip you off, but they don't even given a reliable diagnosis. We've had yet another problem arise due to their lack of competence. Initially they told me we might need a new battery, I told them we had already purchased once because we had some battery concerns & could bring it over to have it installed. Once they learned they weren't going to profit by selling us a new battery, they back pedaled and said they retested it & it tested just fine and battery replacement was unnecessary. Low and behold, the car battery is now totally dead & in need of replacement. BEWARE OF THIS BUSINESSS!!!!

After years of taking my car to the dealership (and getting admittedly good service), I received a HUGE repair bill estimate on my 110k+ mile A4. Enough that I seriously considered getting a new car. A friend recommended getting an estimate from Foreign Traffic so I took her in. PC at Foreign Traffic explained the work that needed to be done and the prices for each part+labor. Their estimate beat my dealer's. So rather than junk my baby, I went with the repairs. They were done in a couple days and meanwhile, I was given a nice A6 loaner to drive. I also asked them to do my annual state inspections and while that resulted in additional needed repairs, I can vouch that the dealer would have charged way more. PC was very straightforward and honest with me about the things I'd need to do in order to extend the life of the car for (hopefully) years to come. In short, my baby's got a new lease on life. I had never really thought I'd take her past 120k but now I'm hoping for even more than that. While I have nothing negative to say about the level of service and professionalism at my dealer, the lower cost of work at Foreign Traffic combined with their also excellent work means I think I've found a new service partner for my car.

BEAUTIFUL CARS BUT THIS IS A VERY SHADY DEALER AN EXPERIENCE YOU WILL NEVER WANT TO ENCOUNTER Read our epic nightmare below: Stopped into this dealer with my partner who was looking to purchase a 2008 BMW 335xi. The car was advertised online for a great price and it was still in warranty. We ended up deciding to buy and started talking about our trade. The business owner made the sales person check the entire trade in vehicle (a 2008 Audi Q7) with a paint meter. All four corners (fenders) were one thickness and everywhere else was another. They insisted that all of the fenders were repainted (on all 4 corners never the less) even though it had never been in an accident. They ultimately left it at "well the car must have been damaged when it was transported and the dealer you bought it from repainted it". Even then they had no qualms about buying it, it just seemed like a ploy to low-ball their trade offer. When we first arrived the sales person told us a price of $31K. When we got to the paperwork it became $32K. We were certain he'd said $31K, I pulled up their website on my Smartphone but it said $32K. I had also seen the ad on Autotrader before we arrived but now it was gone! We battled over this and they finally agreed to honor the $31K price. THIS PRICE GIMMICK WAS FAR WORSE THAN WE SUSPECTED, PLEASE KEEP READING. We finalized the deal after several hours of being at the lot, drove about 5-6 miles and the car literally died and would not start back up. This was totally unexpected as we weren't buying a junker, this was a $30K+ car. Once we got a hold of the business owner I was livid, I probably cursed a handful of times. He was still very eager to help and said he'd arrive shortly. I was very upset between the hassle with the trade, the bait and switch with the price, and now the fact we were now broke down on the side of the road in pouring rain. When he arrived he threaten to "knock me the f*** out" because I swore at him on the phone which he claimed his young daughter heard. Unless his daughter has extraordinary hearing I doubt she could hear the details of that call. The other 2 people with me deescalated the situation with the business owner and we all agreed to just cancel out the deal completely. The absolute topper was once we got back home I opened my laptop up and the ads were still there from earlier. The car was actually listed for $30K and these shadies went on and changed their website once they had interested buyers to reflect a $2K higher price. They also removed their Autotrader ad completely but again I still had the page from earlier showing a $30K price. All I can say to others if this is the experience we got from this place, I can't imagine what else goes on here. I guarantee this was not the first time these 2 jokers went on their website and ads to change the price. The salesperson raised the price $1K to $31K when we first arrived and we didn't notice. It took the second $1K price increase to $32K before we noticed and they had still "got" us for $1K. It's easy to be a victim when your dealing with pro-scammers.

Had an unexpected brake problem with my Honda. Called in advance to see if they could look at my vehicle that day. Had it towed in and it took them two days to put new brakes on. I never received an estimate. Every time they gave me that it would be completed they missed. They called at 4:45 and said it was almost done. When I arrived one hour later it still was not done. And as I pulled out of the parking lot I noticed my clock and radio were not working and need to be reset. How can a brake job affect your radio?! I wouldn't trust these fools to put air in my tires. Overpriced, under deliver, disrespectful and incompetent. BEWARE!
