Buy your next VW here!

After going to other dealerships and feeling like we were more of a nuisance than a customer, my wife and I visited VW of Rochester. Immediately, Alanah came out to meet us. Not to hard sell us but to sincerely answer our questions and get to know us. Being treated as a person, not a prospect is refreshing in the car buying world. After giving other dealerships a 2nd opportunity, we realized that a 2022 Tiguan purchased at Rochester VW was the right choice. Seamless buying experience. Fair offer on my trade. No pressure. Direct connection with my preferred lender. When it is time to replace my current sedan with a Jetta, this is where I will be going.

Working with Jim Breitmaier was very easy with no high

Working with Jim Breitmaier was very easy with no high pressure sales pitches. He offered several choices and explained the benefits and disadvantages to each. I’ve worked with Jimmy several times in the past and have always been pleased with the results. Additionally, the service personnel at Volkswagen of Rochester are excellent and knowledgeable about the cars sold there.

I love my new 2023 Tsaos!

I love my new 2023 Tsaos! This dealership was wonderful, very friendly and helpful. The staff there are polite and do not pressure you to buy a car, unlike other dealerships I visited. Alanah Bailey is a great sales person. She answered all my questions and she was patience with me. I highly recommend her.

Great Experience

We have purchased many vehicles over the years. Jimmy Breitmaier is by far the easiest and most knowledgeable person to work with. His passion is Volkswagen and has an extreme amount of knowledge in the car industry in general and it shows. I felt that he had my best interest in mind, wasn't pushy or aggressive whatsoever. Highly recommend working with Jimmy Breitmaier at Volkswagen of Rochester to buy your next vehicle.

Fantastic experience!

Fantastic experience! Thanks to Casey Beranger for contacting me regarding a sporty Cross Atlas they had knowing I would absolutely love it! Purchasing it sight unseen as I live in another State, Service Manager Steve Beranger provided me with a complete inspection report to ensure all was in perfect condition. I am LOVING my vehicle, and Casey is not only knowledgeable but such a delightful young lady that is truly genuine. BEST VW DEALERSHIP!!!

A Cut Above the Rest

My experience at Volkswagen of Rochester was absolutely top-tier. From the moment I stepped foot into the showroom, I was greeted by smiling faces and felt like an honored guest. I was warmly introduced to my salesperson, Mark, who joyfully presented their lineup of Tiguans to me, as I had previously asked. He answered any questions I had, and he wasn’t afraid to admit when he didn’t have an answer. The test drive was personalized according to what types of roads I would be driving my Tiguan on regularly, which was a thoughtful gesture from Mark. Once I had settled on a particular trim and color, Mark introduced me to the rest of the team, namely the sales manager (Scot) and the finance manager (Michael). Both were professional and personable. The financing process wasn’t stressful in the least. They were happy to work with my preapproval through my bank, and they additionally—and politely—offered to try to get me a better rate through their lenders. I accepted, and they got me a variety of offers that were competitive and appealing. Even when I decided to stick with my personal bank in the end, they were supportive and facilitated the entire process. On the day I took delivery, Mark walked me through any further setup. At my request, he happily took my picture with my new car and then offered to have the dealership post it on their social media feeds. I was delighted; I want to tell everyone about how great of an experience I had. From start to finish, buying my first ever brand-new car has been a truly wonderful experience. It was fun and not stressful in the slightest. I felt listened to and appreciated by all the staff, even the members of the service department, who I always look forward to seeing when I come in for anything service-related. Volkswagen of Rochester has earned a lifetime customer from me, and I make sure to recommend them to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle.
