Lexus dealer experience in Westchester
Hello - I'm almost a first time lexus owner. Should be taking delivery of a 2007 LX470 this week. Very excited. I will want to take the car to someone to look it over after I take possession to take care of any preventive maintenance items, etc. Anyone have good/great experiences with any dealerships in Westchester. My other cars are BMW, and I have stayed away from the "stealerships" for sometime now using local indy shops that focus on german cars. Not sure what experiences are like at lexus dealerships for service.

isobar, congrats on the new truck.
Lexus dealers are the same as any other dealer...quality and knowledge of the truck's quirks varies by location. Service writers may know zero as to truck function, but they do share in the $$$ you leave. I'd observe that really good techs either start their own shop, or go to work for an indy shop. You can sign up at the owners section on lexus.com. Input the VIN and you can see any work done at a Lexus dealer. I'd also post your question in the 100 series tech forum on ih8mud.com, I can almost guarantee you'll get a recommendation for a good shop. You should also be able to download a copy of the owners manual there with the maintenance schedule.
Never mind...I did a quick search on mud for a mechanic near you...found one post quoted below...
