Dave Syverson Auto Center

A big thanks for Nothing I would like to take this time to warn people about the service that my father did NOT receive at Dave Syverson Ford in Albert Lea, Minnesota. In 1987 I would like to take this time to warn people about the service that my father did NOT receive at Dave Syverson Ford in Albert Lea, Minnesota. In 1987, my father was in a motorcycle accident that left him paralyzed. He has had to have specialized vehicles in order for him to have transportation. He has always chosen Ford vehicles. He now has a full size E250 van. Exactly 3 years and 28 days ago his transmission went out. It cost him $3,600.00 to have a brand new transmission put in. It had a 3 year or 100,000 mile warranty on it. It went out again, like I said, 3 years and 28 days later. That transmission only had 44,000 miles on it when it went out for the second time and would cost him another $3,800 to fix. My father is not asking for the warranty to be honored as it was 28 days expired, but he was trying to get Dave Syverson Ford and FORD Motor Company to work with him. Maybe cut part of the labor bill or give him a transmission at cost. He is a retired veteran and is living on a fixed income because of his accident. My father talked to many people in his search for help, Tim Mann, the General Manager of the Albert Lea store, who said his hands were tied and that my dad would have to talk to FORD. So he called April who was a corporate customer service worker and April’s manager, both of whom told him “Sorry, but there is nothing we can do.” I find this hard to believe Just be aware that if there are problems with your vehicle, you may not get the help that you deserve at Dave Syverson Ford in Albert Lea, Minnesota.

A Great Buying Experience We were quite pleased with the sales department's willingness to locate the exact vehicle we were looking for. Since 1988, we have purchased a total o We were quite pleased with the sales department's willingness to locate the exact vehicle we were looking for. Since 1988, we have purchased a total of five Dodge/Chrysler/Plymouth vehicles. We would rank this dealership at the top; in a virtual tie with one of the other places we've purchased a new vehicle. Features on the vehicle were demonstrated, and explained, to us very well. We are extremely happy with the vehicle itself: a 2014 Dodge Journey. It has exceeded our expectations in every way. Although rated at 25 mpg highway, we have had little difficulty exceeding that figure by 2-3 mpg by using the on-board digital display to modify our driving habits. The vehicle is, by far, the quietest member of our current 3 car fleet, and has a great ride for an SUV. The amount of storage space is amazing. The power of the V-6 engine is also amazing. We consider the price we paid to be good, but not great. That being said, if you factor-in the true cost of driving round trip two or three times to another dealership for a lower price, you'll probably end of paying more overall, as the prices here are not that much higher.

The buying experience at Dave Syverson's is pleasant surprise. Gone are the days of the pushy salesmen when you decide to go here. Nick and Travis were the 2 best people I've dealt with in a dealership surprise. Gone are the days of the pushy salesmen when you decide to go here. Nick and Travis were the 2 best people I've dealt with in a dealership when looking to buy a car. Friendly, courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable. From the time I walked in, till the time I signed the papers, I felt welcome and comfortable like I was at a friend's house. When I decide to purchase another vehicle, I know Dave Syverson's will be the first place on my list to visit, and probably the only one I'll need to. More

Took the time to answer my questions, very friendly. Like the fact that the bottom line prices are clearly marked and that the price will not go up and down depending on who you are.

I am not going to write too much here because I live close enough to the city and do not want to cause issues because I still do business in the city of Albert Lea. However, I have given the rating I ha close enough to the city and do not want to cause issues because I still do business in the city of Albert Lea. However, I have given the rating I have because I am displeased with the sarcastic and disrespectful experience I have received in the past from its sales force and its mechanics. I have decided to finally speak up. I will no longer go there. There is a nicer dealer down the road from them! More

Greg Hanson sold us our 2009 Chrysler Town and Country Minivan and we were very happy with the way he took care of us. My 1997 Nissan Pickup Truck was starting to show its age so my wife and I decided it Minivan and we were very happy with the way he took care of us. My 1997 Nissan Pickup Truck was starting to show its age so my wife and I decided it was time to look for a new truck. I was looking at a 2013 Frontier Pickup Truck on the Dave Syverson sales lot when Greg Hansom came up and asked if I was looking for a new truck. While we were looking at the truck Greg answers our questions and seemed very knowledgeable on the product. He took us for a test drive and pointed out features as we drove. When we got back my wife and I decided that we wanted the truck and Greg took us inside, offered us a cup of coffee, and we sat down in his office. Greg explained what the truck would cost and offered us several financing options. Then Greg introduced me to Bryan Stevens, Service Manager and Mark Raygor, Service Advisor, so that I would be familiar with who I would be dealing with for after sales service to the Frontier. After the truck had been cleaned up Greg took me out to the truck and explained all the buttons and knobs and what their function was. My wife and I are very happy with our sales experience at Dave Syverson Auto Mall and we really appreciate Greg Hanson taking his time to show us our new Frontier to us and explain all the features.

I didnt know exactly what vehicle I wanted but I new that I wanted something with better gas mileage than what I was previously getting. I explained this to Kerby and he had me test drive 4 different vehicles, he walked me through each and every one of them, explained different options and was very thorough. Once I test drove the Altima, I knew that was what I was wanting. Kerby was very kind in getting the answering all of my questions and I was very comfortable in getting the paperwork signed. More

Doug (my s month and everything has went smooth. Truck had brand new tires but came with improperly balanced. Otherwise have had no problems with it. Doug (my salesman) was very nice and helpful. Only negative thing I can think of is they won't haggle on the prices, everything is "Firm" More
