Good luck booking a service
Just trying to get a service for my car is a nightmare, I have phones like 4 different branches that either tell me they don’t do services anymore or they don’t have service kits for the Beijing, try booking a service and then I am told the service department has gone home, this was at 5 , site states they close at 5:30, managed to get through then I have to provide a whole vin number , even though it’s not my first service it makes no sense why don’t the branches share a database. I didn’t have any issues with my first 2 services
