Any recommended dealers in the GTA?

Fellow GTA 3G owners..

Can any of you recommend a dealer in the area? If any of you have some personal experience with some good dealers that treat your cars as you would expect under service I would love to know about them

Let me know, thanks in advance!

I've been to Markham Acura 2-3 times and they were pretty good. treated me well, but they're a tiny bit more expensive than other acura dealers, but to me it was still worth it.

i will NOT go to Acura of North Toronto

Thanks SG! Yeah I actually heard those guys even replace steering wheel lights without charging that crazy airbag removal fee. Its good to know they are vouched for again. I may take my car there for some warranty stuff.. only problem is I'm at 79900kms I think I will call them tomorrow.

Anyone else have any other recommendations?

I highly recommend NOT using Acura of Sherway.

I switched from Sherway to Erin Mills Acura and have had no issues. I also get 25% off parts at Erin Mills Acura

I USED to work for TRG:CS [we did surveys for Honda/Acura].
Too bad I quit--and we shut down.

I could have gotten you each dealership reports [based on our surveys].

^ I JUST took my car into Acura Erin mills after some recommendations.. they accepted my car for warranty repairs at 80.2k!

They need to order parts and I'll be back in on Tuesday. Still not sure what they ordered and what they plan to do with it.. I noticed when I had it in last week they inspected or tried to get rid of one rattle and ended up leaving some oil/grease marks on the fabric of my A pillar

That's about it.. the customer service and friendly atmosphere was great.. I am very curious to see what they end up doing to my car when I bring it back on Tuesday.. then I will know for sure..

just bought a new car from acura of north toronto -- i got a good deal but the negotiating experience was not fun... do i have the option to have it serviced anywhere else? will this not void my warranty? will another dealer take care of it even if i didnt buy it from them? seems like erin mills is pretty good so i might take it there for servicing... a newbie here so hope you guys can help - first car here in canada/north america

congrats on the new car. what did you buy?

and to answer your question, yes, you can take your car to any Acura dealer. They will all honor your warranty. Just take off the frames around your license plates that say "Acura of North Toronto" b/c it doesn't sound like you want to be advertising for them

If you take your car to erinmills acura you shouldnt have any problems. Ever since I switched they have put more things under warrenty for me that acura sherway denied and claimed warrenty wont cover it.

I have heard nothing but good things about Erin Mills, I believe they sponsor the NSX Club as well and remember them doing a good job on an NSX engine refresh/rebuild.

i've been going to erin mills acura since 2002. I know Ron the service manager and also a tech who is the ONLY person I allow to touch my car.

he also does work on the side :-) hehehe.

and if i need to buy parts I get him to do it cause he gets a 10-15% discount.
