Not only did I drive off with my DREAM Fusion a year ago, my boyfriend just purchased an F-150 from them last night. Ryan went above and beyond what we could have ever expected in purchasing a vehicle and Anthony made the transaction completely painless. I highly recommend them both to everyone I know. I have ALWAYS been a GM girl and even grew up in a strictly GM family. That all changed when I saw those brand new Fusions come out. I decided I had to change my ways, and have one of those for myself. I shopped around a few times and just couldn't find what I was looking for and in the payment range I wanted. I stopped in Auffenberg North one evening and spoke with Ryan Beyer. Not long after, I was leaving with the car I wanted and in the price range I was looking for. The place was nice, the people were great and everything went smoothly. I didn't feel like I was just another transaction. I felt like an actual customer. More

He was a very down to earth guy and made the car buying process painless. If someone I know is thinking about buying a car, I'm definitely sending them Jeff's way. I think what sets him apart from other sales people is that a week from and a month from when I drove off the lot he called me to see how everything was going and to see that I was still satisfied. I've purchased 4 other cars in my life and no other salesman has done that. Thanks Jeff! More

Please don't waste your time going here!!! I bought a jeep from them November of 2014. By February of 2015 it was already in the shop. The spark plugs had never been changed. Eventually the veh I bought a jeep from them November of 2014. By February of 2015 it was already in the shop. The spark plugs had never been changed. Eventually the vehicle started to idle weird whenever I started it, warm or cold. We changed the spark plugs. Now it's March of 2015 and the engine has a freaking tick and knock. Had to have it towed to my local jeep dealer to be looked at. Thank god I bought a warrenty when I bought the jeep. I'm 30 weeks pregnant dealing with a crap vehicle they sold me. The car I traded in I owned her 3 years, kept regular maintenance, and had NO problems with it! Will never go there again and will never recommend them to anyone! More

They Lost Me As a Customer Here's the email I just sent them: I wanted to write a brief email to let you know why I won't be buying any more vehicles at Auffenberg and why I Here's the email I just sent them: I wanted to write a brief email to let you know why I won't be buying any more vehicles at Auffenberg and why I won't use your company's repair services. When I purchased a 2008 Ford Focus from your company, I was very satisfied. Your salesperson did an excellent job. However, every interaction since then has been frustrating. I've organized it into the points below. 1. Buying the car took about four hours of my time from the moment I decided to make the purchase. At one point, I'm pretty sure the underwriter forgot that I was waiting. He also kept pushing your oil change service, and I kept declining -- eventually he threw it in for free. Maybe he gets some sort of commission from that service? Anyways, I did insist on a warranty as a condition of sale; I'll take my share of the blame for not reading the fine print on the policy (more on that in a minute). 2. In August of last year, I noticed a creaking sound from the front of the car. I made an appointment at Auffenberg Ford O'Fallon -- it took them two weeks to get me in, which seemed excessive. The issue was front sway bar bushings, which was a covered service. The repair took more than two weeks, if memory serves -- it might have been "just" two weeks, but that's a ridiculous amount of time. When I got my car back, it wouldn't start initially, apparently from the battery draining. I should also note that I wasn't contacted with updates, which would have made the situation better. Eventually, you guys even rented me a car for two days, which was nice, but it doesn't explain why a relatively simple repair took that much time. The invoice also seemed high, but I paid it without reading through the itemization (it was probably on point, but if I can find it, I'll have to check through it after what happened today). 3. Recently, the noise came back. Today, I took the car to Auffenberg Ford Belleville and got some bad news -- the issue is front sway bar links, which aren't covered under my warranty. Again, it's on me for not reading the warranty thoroughly, but the $130 diagnostic fee seems excessive. They wanted somewhere around $350 for the work. That's a very high price for that repair (then again, you're a dealership, so whatever), and I asked for the car back. When I went to pick it up, there was a $10 "miscellaneous" charge on the invoice -- I asked about it and they quickly took it off. It seemed sketchy, to say the least. That was the final straw for me; I've lost all confidence in your company's services. Any one of these issues on its own would not be enough to drive me to write an email like this, but I've felt like a sucker after every interaction I've had with your service department. I've actually never written a letter like this, to be honest. In the future, I'd advise better communication with your customers. Good communication and a little quality control would have prevented every issue here and I'd still be a satisfied customer. I'll be posting about this experience online and looking for a new dealer for my next vehicle. Thank you for taking the time to read this. More

Chevy Avalanche Robert Stevenson was very helpful in the purchase of my truck. We had some issues on the drive home and we bought it as is. They let me bring it in an Robert Stevenson was very helpful in the purchase of my truck. We had some issues on the drive home and we bought it as is. They let me bring it in and fixed all the issues with no hassle. The truck was a little dirty, the brakes felt weird and the check engine light was on during the test drive. I asked to have these issues fixed. On the drive home one of the brakes were sticking and the check engine light came back on. They were repairing the mirror and forgot to reattach the passenger side door handles. All issues were fixed and I am very happy with my purchase. Overall I would rate my experience good.
