"When the time came for me to trade my 2007 Jetta, there was no question that I would return to O'Steen. I have been an O'Steen VW customer for almost 10 years and have always received outstanding service. Harry Nesbitt was incredibly helpful, patient and flexible as he walked me through the process and answered my questions. He bent over backwards to accommodate my schedule and made sure I had everything I needed. I continue to be thrilled with O'Steen and look forward to driving VW's for many years to come." – Anna from Jacksonville 


 



"This truly was a great experience. It was quick and simple. Richard Hoch did a super job. He listened to my needs and requirements and did a great job of meeting and exceeding them. Richard also helped me to make the right choice and upgrade the type of vehicle without any pressure or force. Although there was some price negotiating, we did not go through the usual nonsense of going back and forth and holding back. Tom also helped out and did a great job of following up and keeping me in the loop" – David from Jacksonville 


 



"Exceptional attention from ordering to delivery. Your salesman delivered car to a hotel where my family and staying for XMAS shopping - the car was a present for my daughter and your salesman and staff pulled off a surprise delivery that worked to perfection - GREAT! GREAT! GREAT! Thanks to Brian and David at O'Steen in Jacksonville for a once in a lifetime experience!"       – John from Savannah


 



My buying experience was exceptional in all respects. This is a dealership that really focuses on customer service.       – Jane from Jacksonville


 



Fabulous experience. Cannot praise enough our salesperson (Harry Nesbitt) who is knowledgeable, honest, responsive, and personable. York was excellent - both knowledgeable and thorough with the financing details. Truly a wonderful experience. I have purchased personally 3 cars from O'Steen and would not hesitate to purchase another car in the future. I am really impressed!       – Grace from Jacksonville


 



Everyone, receptionist included, was very friendly. I came in the first time to test drive, didn't feel pressured at all.

After test driving other vehicles, I came back for one last comparison of the Golf. I thought it was the best car I had driven, but wanted to be sure... filling out this survey proves it was :)      –  Samuel from Jacksonville


 






You have an excellent staff on Phillips Highway. Brian Blanchard is truly an exception salesperson. He keeps the process light hearted, yet always ontrack for the next part of the transaction. Everyone was extremely nice and accommodating to us. It was a real pleasure to make this lease happen.      – Gerald from Jacksonville


 






I tried 4 Dealers and O’steen was a winner by a large margin. David Schomp excels in quickly developing a winning interpersonal relationship. Thanks again David, will be back !!!!!!! - Orla from Jacksonville


 





I live in Savannah GA and first went to the dealership here for the 2012 Jetta Sportwagon TDI. When I told them exactly what I was looking for they said they couldn’t find it. I then called O'Steen in Jacksonville and they found exactly what I wanted in 24 hours. VERY PROFESSIONAL. Brian who was the salesman was EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the car. Great experience and would drive a 4 hour round trip again tomorrow for a car if it was to do business with O'Steen. THANKS – Zachary from Savannah


 





We were so impressed by the entire Osteen operation that our next new car will be a Volkswagen from the same dealership and hopefully the same salesman. – Louis from Jacksonville


 




The salesman (Chip) was extremely helpful in all aspects of my purchase. He was able to answer all my questions, which were many, and also was able to obtain the specific car that I requested. His attitude was outstanding. Also, the financial person and his assistant were extremely helpful and went out of their way to answer all my questions. I purchased the cleaning package and an extended warranty a few days after taking delivery. I look forward to an outstanding relationship with your company. – Robert from Jacksonville, FL


 



I truly enjoyed buying this car. I don't really like it when I find the car I want to buy at the first place I go to but that is what happened. Working with Ed was great and I look forward to doing business with him in the future. – Brian from Jacksonville, FL


 



Best experience I have ever had, purchasing a new car. – Bartley from Jacksonville, FL


 



Our salesman, Thomas Little, was outstanding. He was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and instructed us as to how to operate all of the different options. We can truly state that we have never had a more professional salesperson in our 50 years of car buying. Not only would we return to O'Steen Volkswagen but we would also return to Thomas. You are fortunate to have him! – Frances from Jacksonville


 



Mr. Little was outstanding and never pushy, but always up front and realistic. Not only would we HIGHLY recommend OSteen, but make sure our family and friends work with Thomas in the future. We are very very happy with our experience. It was more like working with a high end dealership than what we experienced at Nissan and Toyota. Made all the difference in what we bought and how we feel about the car now. – Lance in Jacksonville


 



I am truly satisfied both with my car and with my buying experience. Harry made it very easy to decide on a car that was right for me without the pressure I have experienced in other dealerships. I am very happy with my car, and I definitely feel like I got a deal compared to other cars in the market that were not even close in quality to my Jetta. An overall great experience. – Paul from Jacksonville


 



Really made leasing a new car a fun experience. Was my second transaction with the dealership and salesman. Vastly better than some of my experiences with other dealers in the past. Oh, it's a great car too. – Richard from Jacksonville


 



Please commend Tom Little and the finance department for a job well done! Tom's concern for our complete satisfaction, from the minute we walked on the lot until the final signature was conducted in an extremely professional manner. O'Steen's image as a family oriented dealership was truly evident in all departments and made our granddaughter's "first car" experience most delightful. Thanks for being professionals in a business that seems at times to have forgotten who the customer is. – Stephen from Jacksonville


 



From the sales people to the service department, Osteen VW was the first time I truly liked purchasing a car. There were no scams or hidden fees and agenda. I made the purchase for the first time on my own without having to drag my husband in to negotiate on my behalf. When I got home and told him of my deal, he hi fived me and said Great Job Honey. Thank you Chip and all the other service and sales people. This was the first time I ever left a dealership without having a massive headache. – Jill from Jacksonville, FL


 



They did more for me deal-wise and service-wise than ANY other VW dealership. I had contacted 5 other dealerships in FL and were not satisfied at all! Response time, customer service, and the deal itself were absolutely horrific! I would never recommend most of the VW dealerships in FL, however Osteen VW was awesome and I will be doing business with them in the future! – Gary, who drove 4 and ½ hours from Jupiter, FL


 



I came in looking at the Toureg and Tiguan, not knowing which one would suit my needs the best. After speaking with Chip and Dan we determined that the Tiguan was perfect. I appreciated that there was not high pressure sales and the sales manager did everything he could to get the price just where I needed it. I would definitely recommend O'Steen and my husband will be purchasing his next vehicle from O'Steen as well :) the financing paperwork was also very speedy and we certainly appreciated that. Thank you. – William from Jacksonville


 



Brian was very knowledgeable and helpful. Returned calls in a expeditious manner. Very enjoyable experience. Great job Brian. – Michael from Jacksonville


 



If not the best car buying experience it was in the top two. My wife and I will come back to O'Steen and our salesman David Schomp to buy again when we replace her vehicle. – Robert from Jacksonville


 



Dave and everyone at the dealership were great to us. They wowed us over enough 11 months ago and that is why we came back for a second car so quickly! Thanks guys :) – Jamie from Jacksonville


 



This was a great experience for me in the purchase of our family’s new CC. We traded in our old VW and Osteen, and everyone in the process exceeded my family’s expectations. We will use Osteen for all our future service needs, and recommend them to friends and family. – Justin from Jacksonville




It was indeed a pleasure dealing with Chip on the purchase of my new vehicle. He was very knowledgeable and always responsive to my interests and needs. Zero pressure, never trying to sell me something I didn't need or want, but always responding thoroughly to my questions.

He got me the vehicle I wanted at a price I was comfortable with - a 4-door Golf TDI - and, best of all, I love it!!! – Ronald from Jacksonville




Mr. Nesbitt was extremely helpful and followed up on everything. The man responsible for the financial paperwork York was equally as helpful, honest, and cordial. I was very satisfied with the experience of the purchase and love my new car. – Tim from Jacksonville




Ed Sheets in sales was fantastic to work with and the German financial manager was very good as well. I enjoyed not being pressured with my decision making to purchase the 2012 EOS. – Colleen from Jacksonville




Another outstanding visit with David Schomp and Osteen Volkswagen. If we ever decide to buy another VW it will be at Osteen. – James E. from Savannah, GA




Entire sales team and management are extremely personable and made us feel like their only customer. – Sylvia L. from Jacksonville




I was truly amazed and satisfied with the service and attention I received. Other dealerships seemed more interested in selling me their vehicle, Mr. Blanchard at O'Steen was more interested in selling me MY vehicle. I really appreciated the experience. Much better than past experiences with other dealerships. – Curtis




“We're an Osteen and VW family from now on”

I'm so happy my director and other colleagues recommended Osteen after they heard I loved the Jetta….We're an Osteen and VW family from now on. I've always wanted a VW but have never ventured in to look, I always just thought they were out of my price range, the Jetta commercial got me in the door and the car sold itself as did the dealership. Easiest decision and process we ever made. I recently went out of town and I texted my husband " I miss my vdub, I have vehicle separation anxiety, lol" It's a great feeling to have!




“Great job, folks. You've made a Volkswagen believer of me”

VW dealerships and personnel have been branded over the years, deservedly or not, as being haughty, uncooperative, high-handed and hard to reason and deal with. When I inquired about a Jetta via the Internet, that perception melted away so quickly even my head spun - wow ... the speed and professionalism of your team was shocking superb, almost too good to be true. While Toyota, Ford and Nissan staffers were slow on the draw and ignored my simple but reasonable and, to me, crucial questions, your guys answered me fully and with, again, great speed. The entire deal was quickly negotiated via e-mail. I then drove to your dealership and picked up the car after meeting the sales folks and taking care of the paperwork. For the record, I have bought a dozen new cars of various brandings over the years from Mercury, Nissan and Saab to Mitsubishi, Buick, Pontiac, Acura and Cadillac and only one dealership has come close to you in terms of honest, speedy, cordial and happy negotiations and sale. I feel I can pick up the phone or drop by for help at any time as you have done an excellent job of bringing me into the fold. I am looking forward to building excellent relationships with your service department as well. I am assuming that the professionalism I experienced in the showroom and your sales offices follows through to your servicing department and personnel. Great job, folks. You've made a Volkswagen believer of me. And, yes, to dot the i's and cross the t's, the Jetta is a terrific car, and a joy to drive.




“Great great dealership!”

Great great dealership! I love the car and Osteen made the experience even better.




Mr. Kelly was more than knowledgeable and professional in his handling any and all of my questions. I must say, this is the MOST pleasurable experience I have ever had in purchasing a vehicle in the 30+ years of buying. Great job to all on staff. I will return!

My experience with Brian was wonderful. In shopping around town I met lazy strange men with poor manners, Brian was a trully helpful well spoken Gentleman who I would feel comfortable sending anyone I know to for a car.

Mark said it was the most wonderful “car-buying” experience he has ever had. I will definitely refer you to anyone looking for a easy, smooth car deal.

Thank you for all your help.

Connie Hawkins





 Our sales consultant, David was excellent and most of all extremely professional. I usually dread buying a car because of the process but our experience was fair and enjoyable.

 
We will recommend O'Steen's to any of our friends. Thanks.

The Foppes

 


In addition Garrett, the mechanic working on my car, really took the time to ensure that I was satisfied with the work, even taking a couple test drives with us to make sure my issues were resolved.

Once again, thank you so much for making what is normally a dreaded
chore into something quick and painless!

Sincerely,
S. B. 


 


Dear Mr. Scheffer:

I wanted to pass along my sincere thanks for the service I receives from your dealership on Monday January 28th.  While my Jetta was not actually serviced there (it was accidentally towed to the Volvo dealership), representative Flip was very professional and located my car right away.  He also called down to Volvo to ensure they were ready for me, and he gave me great directions.

 I don’t live in the Jacksonville area, but be assured I will recommend your name to anyone in that area who is looking for service or to purchase a new car.  I will also keep you all in mind next time my Jetta does need service and I’m in the area. 

 Please find enclosed a copy of the letter I sent to Mr. Stefan Jacoby, the President and CEO of Volkswagen, regarding my overall experience with O’Steen Volkswagen and Volvo.  You all should be proud of the great customer service you provide to us VW owners!

 Kudos, and Happy New Year!

 Very Sincerely,

 Mr.. Clark


 I found myself in a situation of a flat tire on the side of San Jose Blvd, unable to reach any of my friends that would come and help me out. I thought of callin O'Steen where I take my car to be serviced, thinking they would be able to give me the name of a company that I could call for roadside assistance but what happened was they sent Morris out to change my tire for me. He was there within 15 minutes. Talk about great customer service!

 

Thank you so much!

Good Morning Bill,

 

I want to express a very warm "Thank You" to your staff, and to Patrick Mach in particular, for how well they handle the Volkswagen Group of America company lease vehicles. Our employees have been very pleased with the high level of service that they receive when they have vehicles delivered to your store. Word of mouth has spread through our facility that your dealership is the place to go to have a car delievered. Patrick is in communication with the employees from the minute the car or paperwork hits the dealership until it is turned over to the customer (our employee). We have employees drive all the way down from Hilliard and Callahan just to get their vehicles at your dealership. That speaks volumes to the attention and care that they receive from your team. I have worked with Volkswagen for the last seven years and have lived in four different states during that time and I must say that your team truly is "Best-In-Class" with our company lease program. Please thank your staff, from Patrick all the way to those who PDI the vehicles and handle the registration, for providing our team with outstanding customer service and support.

 

On behalf of the Volkswagen Group of America Jacksonville PDC, THANKS!!

 

Best Regards,

John K



Dear Allen and Mike:

 

I am writing to thank you both for the exceptional customer service that I received on my Volkswagen Beetle. As you recall, I was concerned that an engine light was on. I had taken it to a local repair shop here in Brunswick, but wasn't convinced he has my best interest at heart. After a couple of phone calls to your dealership, I scheduled an appointment to bring the car in.

 

When I arrived, you were very professional and explained exactly how the technicians would determine the problem and how much it would cost for repairs. I always felt very informed on what was going on. You also determined that my brakes and rotors were in need of repair as well.

 

Now my car runs great and I feel much safer with the new brakes. Thanks again for all your efforts. I look forward to scheduling all of my car's maintenance with your dealership.

 

Sincerely,

 

Lawaba W

 


 

  To Whom It May Concern:

 

On October 4, 2008 I purchased a 2006 VW Passat from your dealership. I absolutely could not be happier with it. I wouldn't have even though to look at this car had it not been for your salesman Dennis Sandrik. He helped me find the perfect car! He was extremely helpful and a real pleasure to deal with. If I ever need to purchase another vehicle in the future, he will be the person I will go to.

 

Thank you and have a great day!

 

Sincerely,

 

Christine A


 



Dear Mr. O'Steen,

 

Thank you for having Mr. Dieter Shafer respond to my last letter to you. He handled the situation in an expedient and professional manner. I appreciate his thoroughness and am happy to report the problem is resolved.

 

Mr. Shafer is truly a great asset to your dealership.

 

Sincerely,

 

Marcy S

Please forward this to your staff, and give my personal thanks.

 

Sincerely,

Hello Bill,

 

I wanted to thank you for the excellent  customer service your Dealership has provided my family. I have been getting my parents cars shipped to your Dealer for the last 10 years, and in every case your staff from sales to service has handled them with the highest professionalism and courtesy. Recently, I sent my sister over, and she purchased her first new car. Being 3,000 miles away, I wanted to personally thank you, your sales staff and service department, for their professionalism and courtesy.


 


Lars, thanks for your quick response. I have a 2000 Passat GL and really impressed with the vehicle. I have owned since new when I purchased in Hartford, Connecticut. I am with the Coast Guard in Kings Bay, Georgia and my wife and I became friendly with one of your service manager's Mike who is a fabulous spokesman for your orginization. Mike has worked on my vehicle several times for general maintenance and had his crew review the entire vehicle with a small list of things to be aware of and I have scheduled your group to work on them.Your service department is hands down thanks to guys like Mike S. and my wife and I are looking for a Jetta wagon for her commute. My Passat has over 140 K and with the maintenance I keep with your group I know it will last me well into the next 5 to 6 years.

 

Please stay in touch with us regarding the new wagons and we will work out a time of appointment. We will be at the dealership next month for some additional maintenance and oil change.

 

Thank you,

Steven  S

 

 


Mr. O'Steen,

 

I wanted to write to describe my recent experience in your service department in particular with Mr. Scheffer. My wife's Passat wagon needed the front turn signal light housing replaced. The part was ordered and I arrived at your dealership to have it installed on Saturday afternoon. Upon arriving I was greeted by one of your staff and he inquired as to how he could assist. At that point, Mr. Scheffer began to enter the service desk but stopped and went away. He returned with the light housing and installed it. After he finished, he noticed that the interior of my wife's car needed cleaning . He took the car to the back of the dealership to vacuum the car without my asking. By the time my bill was prepared, he had returned. The entire experience at your dealership probably took less than 10 minutes. In an age that seems to no longer value customer service, you need to know you have individuals who are still dedicated to treating your customers so good. I will certainly continue to bring my vehicles to you and will relate my experiences to anyone...

 

Sincerely,

 

Jeff T

I picked up my Beetle that You guys had in your service dept. to program a replacement key. When I first got there, I noticed You washed it for me, that was the first blessing, then when I got in and started it to leave, I discovered that your technician had turned off the two "idiot" lights that have been bugging me for several months (air-bag & check engine ).

Thank You, for the extra effort.

 


 

 


 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF, JETTA TDI RECEIVE TOP HONORS FROM KIPLINGER'S

Golf 4-Door Hatch Named Best in Class, Best New Car Under $20,000; Jetta TDI 4-Door named Best in Class for Cars Between $20,000-$25,000

 

HERNDON, Va., May 18, 2010- Kiplinger's personal finance - the highly respected money guide -  bestowed top honors on two Volkswagen cars for their quality and performance relative to price, Volkswagen Group of America announced today.

The 2010 Golf 4-door hatch was named Best-in-Class for cars under $20,000 and Best New Car for cars under $20,000. The magazine also named the 2010 Jetta TDI 4-door Best in Class for cars between $20,000-$25,000.

"At Volkswagen, we are continuously listening to our customers and researching new ways to offer the best cars for the greatest value,"
Volkswagen Group of America CEO Stefan Jacoby said. "The Golf and the Jetta TDI are great examples of how we are achieving our goals. I appreciate the recognition of such a noted publication as Kiplinger's and am proud to accept these awards on behalf of everyone at Volkswagen who made this possible."

Kiplinger's editor-in-chief Knight Kiplinger, presented the awards in person to Mr. Jacoby and Tim Ellis, Vice President, Marketing at Volkswagen's corporate offices here.

The magazine, which annually reviews the newest car offerings against a stringent set of standards, aims to find the best value for readers. In choosing the Golf, Kiplinger's noted "Its zippy five-cylinder engine puts out 170 horsepower and the most torque in this class (but manages 30 mpg on the highway), and the Golf comes with all the safety features we look for standard."

Kiplinger editors further noted that that Jetta TDI ".continues to impress with classic German handling and good looks. It also boasts high resale value, low annual fuel cost and top safety pick honors."

I just want to take a minute to let you know what a wonderful job your service department is doing. My service adviser Mike was truly a pleasure to work with and went above and beyond, with regard to making sure I had a pleasant experience. He facilitated getting me a loaner car so that I could get my young child home for a nap, and also installed my car seat for me!
