Poor Service after the sale, No delivery of final paperwork, still no license plates, run-a-round from all parties involved, all they care about is the sale and will do anything and say anything to m paperwork, still no license plates, run-a-round from all parties involved, all they care about is the sale and will do anything and say anything to make it.

First, I'd like to say that this is my 5th vehicle with Covert and I have had a friend buy there based on my recommendation - total of 6 vehicles bought through Covert. I live outside Austin. I drove i Covert and I have had a friend buy there based on my recommendation - total of 6 vehicles bought through Covert. I live outside Austin. I drove in one Saturday and realized after I got there that Sales is closed on Saturday. On the drive into town, I listened to the Carpro show and they recommended Lief Johnson Ford. So I figured I'd go there instead even though I should have known better. I sent email through the Carpro show ahead of time and they were already ready for me when I arrived. It started out good but through the course of visit I was not pleased. They basically gave me a high-pressure sales pitch and didn't listen to my requests or comments. They wouldn't talk numbers and they kept trying to sell me a vehicle that was too much for my budget. They also wouldn't leave me drive a truck by myself or leave me alone with the vehicles to figure out what the options were. I finally had to walk out. That evening I sent email to Covert from their website and told what I was looking for (used or new) and the email ended up going to Paul Roberge. He responded to me (a real email, not a fake one) and we setup a time for me to come in Sunday afternoon. Wow! What a complete difference. Paul listened very well to what my requests were and we ran all the numbers before even looking at a vehicle. We figured out what our price range was and then he printed several options out and got me the keys, walked me out to the trucks and said "have fun!". (Covert has done this every time I've bought a vehicle there!). My wife and finally chose the truck we wanted and then decided on a color. We went back to Paul, told him our decision and we closed the deal. Talk about a completely different experience! Price? The incentives were unbelievable ($7,000) because I was trading in a Ranger. The cost appeared to be comparable to the other dealer but they didn't provide enough details to explain how they got to their cost. Could have had a sale there Lief! Paul lived up to the previous experiences I've had at Covert. Other people I've dealt with were Connie (Covert Saturn), Johnny (Covert Saturn), And Colin (Covert Ford). All of these people treated me like I had a brain and could make logical decisions. They let the vehicle sell itself and only interjected when I didn't understand something. Fantastic experience and I will continue to send all my friends and family to Covert for the foreseeable future! As far as I'm concerned, there is only one Ford Dealer in ALL of Texas... Covert Ford! Thanks Paul!! Mike V. More

Covert Ford provided the best new car buying experience that we have ever enjoyed. During our search for the perfect King Ranch Expedition, we contacted five dealership. They were not even close. There that we have ever enjoyed. During our search for the perfect King Ranch Expedition, we contacted five dealership. They were not even close. There was no high pressure runaround. Covert and our sales person, Philip Robinson, provided quick and painless trading information. Our bottom line price was better by several thousand dollars than the price we were quoted from other dealers. The after market items were added and the car was ready a full day before promised. The entire trade took around an hour. We were introduced to service and tech personnel. Everyone was friendly and helpful and the car is just what we wanted. No hassle. This was a car buying experience out of the 50's or 60's. It doesn't get better than Covert. More

Easiest and best car buying experience I have ever had. They were determined to find me the vehicle that I desired and sold it to me at a fair price.

I completed my trade-in and purchase over the phone and they were very accommodating with my schedule. Following the sale, they delivered my vehicle to me and picked up my trade-in. This is definitely a first class operation. Following the delivery of my vehicle, I got a personal phone call from Philip (my sales guy) to make sure that everything was as expected with the vehicle. I got several follow-ups in the weeks after making sure that I was satisfied with my Ford Truck, and I was. More
I went in Covert, after applying online. I had some credit issues due to a recent divorce, so my expectations weren't too high. I figured I would have to go to one of those "we tote the note" lots. I m credit issues due to a recent divorce, so my expectations weren't too high. I figured I would have to go to one of those "we tote the note" lots. I met with my salesperson, Jackie Yates. She showed me some models and I found an 07 Equinox. My hopes for getting approval, at a decent rate were dim. Jackie really put me at ease though! She not only got me a great vehicle, with low miles and a good rate (considering my credit past), she treated me like she really valued my business. Not the other way around! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Covert Ford and Jackie Yates. They really solved a huge problem for me! More
