Hello, everyone! My name is Bret Hines and I am a Service Advisor who has worked in the automotive industry for 30 years. In June of 2009, I became a part of the Rallye BMW team. Known as a nice, honest, and genuine guy who loves to joke around, but always gets the job done. My customers and co-workers can depend on me to help when needed. I am never pushy and always upfront; only sell our customers what they truly need. Making sure the vehicles of our guests are handled in a timely manner is my priority. A little about myself: I studied at SUNY Farmingdale. Enjoy discussions about muscle cars. I’m a big fan of the New York Rangers. Softball is one of my favorite hobbies. I also like going to car shows – I own a classic 1967 Chevy Chevelle. I have a true passion for helping others, which makes this the perfect career choice for me.

I have had to call multiple times for the same issues, I am repeatedly told by Bret Heines and Chris that i would receive a call back by the end of the day, this has yet to happen. Each time I do call the am repeatedly told by Bret Heines and Chris that i would receive a call back by the end of the day, this has yet to happen. Each time I do call the service department to speak with the manager the receptionist sayes they will call his line and before they even do so they say “ he maybe in a meeting”. Only. Once in all the calls I have made there has he answered while I was on the other end and this was after I had expressed my dissatisfaction about how frustrated I am about the lack of respect for a client’s time and handily of the problem at hand. Which presents another issue. I had brought my car for an inspection at my community service station, everything was as it should be. They could not pass iit to bring it to the dealer. Which I did promptly, after diagnosis they said it had an air flow flap problem, which cost me $2018.00. A couple of weeks later I received a letter from BMW that it was covered under warranty., completed the necessary paperwork and a few weeks later received a check for minus $490 dollars The Ken Neil at the warranty department said Rally should have known it? He also said that that part does not need programming ( that’s what the $490 charge was for). I proceeded to call Rally again, spoke with Chris he said it does and he would call Ken and get back me yesterday. He hasn’t. Not only did I have to extend money for what shouldn’t have been, I have used multiple hours trying to rectify Rally’’s errors!!! Extremely disappointed in the service, lack of respect for a clients time and poor customer service…….. More

BMW 2014 328i left for the repair when weather is hot and sunny the car stopped on the way. Rallye BMW charged me $319.30 for incorrect diagnostic. I found the issue my self consulting other bmw experts onli sunny the car stopped on the way. Rallye BMW charged me $319.30 for incorrect diagnostic. I found the issue my self consulting other bmw experts online and local mechanic. The issue is fuel control module. I left the bmw again at Rallye and ask them to reproduce issue in hot weather indicated with all steps. When Rallye was changing fuel control module again they charged me $370 and did not subtracted $319 charged me for incorrect diagnostic. $ More than $800 was paid by warranty plus they charged me $700. I talked to Chris service manager and Bret regarding this. But they did not adjusted $319 charged me for incorrect diagnostic. When they fixed this issue I don’t what happened to driver side and passenger side windows curve. The glue is coming out of it and the rubber on top of it is coming out. I am very upset the way the charge the amount plus charging extra and not finishing the job nicely. Rallye was suppose to provide nice service which they are known for but now they charge too much. They fix one thing and spoil other. I don’t what they are going to do it on recall. I want the job should be done nicely why the side curves glue is coming out. If the back seat was taken out while fixing fuel control module then it should fix the same way. Very upset don’t know what to write more. More
