Review content:
We purchased a BMW from this place and were told the vibration and noise we were hearing on the test drive was the muffler. My husband needed a vehicle to go to and from work right away, so we believed them and bought the car. Afterwards, we brought the vehicle to Kinneys Muffler in Bedford and they said the muffler was fine, but the catalytic converter was shot. They showed us the cat and it was bad, so they replaced it. I drove away thinking it solved the problem of the noise and vibration. Was I wrong. Over the next 6 weeks, the noise got louder and it started vibrating really bad upon acceleration. I brought it to a BMW shop and they looked it over. They said the drive shaft was in bad shape and needed to be replaced and that would cost about $900 to $1000 if they could find a remanufactured driveshaft. I told them about Mondial telling us that it was the muffler. The BMW guy looked at me and said that there was NO WAY a competent mechanic would have mistaken a driveshaft failure for a bad muffler. He told me that he was sorry, but we had been ""taken"". So, this beautiful little BMW sat in our driveway for 6 months while we saved up the money for a new driveshaft and I had to bring my husband to and from work every day from North Ft. Worth, close to Alliance, out to Grand Prairie for months. We got it fixed on Halloween 2008 to the tune of $980. It has been a year and a half since we purchased the BMW from Mondial and it is now a great vehicle. We love it. But, only after spending well over $5,000.00. Between the full retail price of $2750, plus tt&l, and $400 on a cat converter, $980 on a reconditioned driveshaft, $200 on a flex disc, $60 for a new thermostat, and various leaks we weren't told about, etc
Cons: Does not disclose major mechanical problems
