Land Rover Calgary
reviews and complaints

Land Rover Calgary is the worst dealership to deal with. If you're looking for a Land Rover Calgary review ... read on!

Very deceptive and will try to add hidden fees on the bill of sale. Be sure to go to landrover.com and see what the manufacturer suggested retail price for the model of the car is. Read the fine print on everything you sign with this dealership.

If you are having a hard time getting through to management - call Land Rover Canada and file a complaint at [protected]

Land Rover Calgary is located at 170 Glendeer Circle SE. Would not purchase any Land Rover or Range Rover from them.

WHAT A NIGHTMARE! Deceptive and sneaky lying bunch of people looking to make a bigger cut and profit of their customers!

My fiance and I ordered a new 2014 range rover...we were even purchase buyers. We place this order in June... it was a 4 month wait. So October rolls around and we follow up..then we were told the manager (Dick) "FORGOT" to place our order! FORGOT?! So...without any apologies or even slightest bit of sympathy he said wait till November. "you either want it or you dont, I got a list of people behind you let me know now"

I was shocked.

We really wanted the car so decided to wait until November, November I called in to follow up... and guess what we have to wait until MARCH! They forgot it AGAIN. AND...NO apology, no consideration... Awful people to deal with, awful company, unorganized, poorly run ...THE WORST OF THIS IS...TRYING TO GET OUR $5000.00 deposit back! Can you believe this madness? They won't refund our deposit on a car they failed to deliver..is that even LEGAL?

I joined this blog specifically so I could vent about Calgary Landrover. I have a 2006 LR3 and to be frank the first year or two of this vehicle was the only time it had any real appeal. Since then it has been service issue after service issue and I have never left Calgary Landrover for less then 2000 dollars. I have the vehicle there right now and for rear and front brakes and seasonal service, it is going to cost me 3000 dollars. The annual service for this vehicle is 5-6k and they (Calgary Landrover Service Dept) talk to you in a condescending and dismissive manner when they deal with you. If I am paying 600 a year for service you can ignore me or treat me like I don't matter but if I am paying you 6k a year in service you had better get me damn coffee and newspaper at a minimum because I have certainly paid for it. I will obviously pay their invoice because I have no choice but my Landrover experience is quickly coming to an end and I will do everything in my power to educate people on how poor this product really is and also what a terrible service outlet Calgary Landrover is for the amount they charge you.

I am writing to describe the poor service we have received from Land Rover Calgary, AB.

We purchased our 2007 Range Rover Sport from Land Rover Calgary on November 2006, at the time of purchase we bought extended warranty on the promises of the great service and the reputable brand as sold to us from the sales associate and the management team. We sincerely believed you get what you pay for at the time of purchasing from this dealership and thought we would be loyal customers for many years to come.

First of all when we picked up our vehicle we were told they were all out of the rubber mats and that they would send it to us the next few days (since where we lived 350 kms away from Calgary and there was no land rover dealership at home). A few days came to 2 weeks and since we had a trip planned that required us to drive thru Calgary we advised the sales associate we would pick it up on our way. That day we loaded our vehicle and when I closed the tailgate it didn't latch properly and the power closure failed, we called the service department and he could not offer any advice and suggested to bring it in for service. Upon arriving at the dealership the salesman who sold us the vehicle and a service advisor both pushed on to the tailgate and finally managed to activate the power closure. It created a concern in my head how in the world could I a person weighing 115 lbs can manage that myself when it took over 300 lbs of force to rectify that problem.

On February 23, 2007 we drove to Calgary to fly out for a week of vacation, during the drive on the highway the radiator overheating light came on. The next day and hour prior to leaving for the airport I decied to call Land Rover Calgary and have the vehicle serviced while we were away. Upon calling the service department and talking to Terra Broatch the service adivsor I explained to her the problem and asked if she could arrange for someone from there dealership to pick up the vehicle since I did not have enough time to drop it off myself. She told me it was not possible and that I would have to call Land Rover Road Side Assistance myself and get it towed to the dealership and they would have it serviced prior to us returning and she gave me the 1800 number. I told her about the problem I was having with one of my two keys, how it did not work even when you are right at the vehicle and told her I would be supplying her with two keys to get it reprogrammed or whatever was neccessary to resolve that problem.

On March the 6th Saturday. we had a relative pick up the vehicle from the dealership to drop it off at the hotel where we would be staying, and he realized he only got one key back instead of two. He called the dealership and was told the service department had gone home already and that the customer advisor Ricardo would call me on Monday. Monday and Tuesday came and no call was returned, I called Land Rover on Wednesday and again my call was not returned. I decided to call he next day and spoke to Terra broatch the service advisor about the situation, she told me I would have to call the tow truck company myself and search for the key because she doesn't remember receiving both keys. I asked her if she could provide me with the name of the towing company but told me I had to call Land Rover Road Side Assistance for that information and she could not help me. I made the call and tracked down the towing company the dispatch was very helpful and tracked down the driver who picked up my vehicle and confirmed both set of keys were dropped off at the dealership. I called Terra at the service department and told her of the situation, she dismissed my information and adamantly stating of not recieving the key. She told me I could get a new key and it was fairly expensive (her exact words) and for a price around $500.00 to $600.00 CDN, then she told me she did find a key behind her cabinet but it was in quite a poor condition. I told her it couldn't be mind because my vehicle was only 3 months old and I took care of the keys since I was the only driver. I asked if she could look up the serials on the key to see if it matched mine, she said it was not possible and there was no information to track the keys. Out of desperation she convinced me to take a digital picture of the cut on the key and fax it to her because her email account was not set up. I told her it would not show up clearly on a fax but she still required it, I called her after the fax went thru and as I thought it was not detail enough to compare to the actual key. I decided to email the picture and a brief detail of the situation to the fixed operations manager and the sales associate who sold us the vehicle regarding the situation.

The next day Bob the fixed operations manager called and spoke to my husband and advisedus it was our responsibility since we called the towing company initially and he stand on the fact they never received two keys. However we called Land Rover Assistance and not directly the towing company, and frankly it is Land Rover who should be rectifying the problem. And to make matters worse now Ricardo the Customer advisor who never returned our calls no longer works there and a new management personnel Patrick has taken over the position and wants us to detail our situation and email it to him. How much more time do we need to invest in to this situation?

We went to Calgary on a business trip and stopped at the dealership to speak to Patrick and unfortunately he was not in. My husband spoke to a sales associate and he simply ordered us a new key and asked for our phone number to look up the serial number for our key in there database. He told us we could discuss with Patrick who would be responsible for the cost of the key later and it would only take 2 to 3 days to arrive. Later that day Patrick called us and asked if we bought the vehicle from there dealership and if it was leased or purchased, and how is that information relevant to the missing key? And surely he must have all that information in his database at the dealership. Perhaps trying to find an excuse to pass the buck? Nobody wants to take the responsibility and Land Rover Calgary simply does not care about there customers once you have signed along the dotted line. All we want is for Land Rover to provide us with a new key. We are still waiting for Patrick to return our call from 5 days ago and want to believe Land Rover Calgary practices good business.
