Experience with Moses doing my oil change was very good, I was a little dissatisfied with having an additive to the oil, which I felt I didn’t need, and was too expensive.

I recently took my F250 in to check for an oil leak and a few other items. I just wanted some checks done and an estimate for repairs. That was last Wednesday the 23rd. I was told to bring it back in Monday few other items. I just wanted some checks done and an estimate for repairs. That was last Wednesday the 23rd. I was told to bring it back in Monday the 28th which I did . Later that day was told to come back Tuesday that they had not gotten to resulting in having to rent car additional day. To shorten this when I got the estimate they charged me $458.12 to do diagnosis. I've written to the service manager no response. I don't mind paying a fare charge but this was way out of line. This was a rip off for doing nothing but checking for estimated repairs. Do not recommend doing business with them. Doug Williams More

The service dept is run like most in the nation, "problem is going to take several visits before we can figure this out and narrow the solution down" . Fairly new truck with less than 4000 miles, starter wo is going to take several visits before we can figure this out and narrow the solution down" . Fairly new truck with less than 4000 miles, starter won't engage. 3 trips to their service dept and the problem returned within 2 weeks each time. They told me the next fix they were going to try was a $2500 new wiring harness. Went to Advance Auto Parts store and they recommended a new starter relay ($ 23 ) which solved the problem. These folks cost me many wasted hours and $ 560.00 dollars for absolutely no resolution to the problem which I'm thinking they knew how to fix all along. When the counter guy at the auto parts store knows more about fixing a Ford truck than the supposedly "factory trained" ford mechanics, Auto Nation Fords service department deserves a minus rating in my opinion.
