It didn't end up being the right timing for me to buy a car, but Tony Boehmer was good to work with and would have given me a great deal on the vehicle I test drove. I never would have heard of them if my car, but Tony Boehmer was good to work with and would have given me a great deal on the vehicle I test drove. I never would have heard of them if my coworker hadn't recommended them, but I'd be willing to go back next time I'm in the market! More
If I could give 500 stars I most certainly would. I purchased a vehicle from these guys a year ago for my wife. We had a service need after my wife hit a very large pot hole. The repair at the local Fo purchased a vehicle from these guys a year ago for my wife. We had a service need after my wife hit a very large pot hole. The repair at the local Ford dealership was almost $900. After seeing a Facebook video that Footh Auto now offered a full repair department I gave them a call. Patrick in service was a gem to work with and even offered a loaner car while my vehicle was getting fixed. I requested that they only use original Ford parts and the repair still came nearly $300 cheaper! On top of this when I came to pick up my vehicle was washed and vacuumed along with a fresh bottle of water in the cup holder. I will only bring my vehicle to Footh's moving forward. More
It pains me that I cannot give this place zero stars, and although I will not deny total liability for my lack of research into Footh auto: I still wanted to tell my story in hopes that no other gullible/eas although I will not deny total liability for my lack of research into Footh auto: I still wanted to tell my story in hopes that no other gullible/easily influenced high school graduate will be taken for a ride. In high school Ben sat in front of my class and preached highly of his character. After hearing by word of mouth what a great guy he was I was so sure I wanted him to be my dealer. How foolish to trust a man I didn’t truly know who sells cars. I can tell you that I’m certainly paying for my naïveté and that Ben Footh is not the man you think. Here are the facts: I bought my car in late 2019 at the beginning of our pandemic. My specific dealer was a man named Alfonso - someone from who’s own volition - told me he would make sure I was taken care of and that he would ensure I left happily with a quality car; he even stated a veteran rarely used it and traded it in for something flashier. He sold me a lemon. The car started to have issues only months in. The first to fall apart was my lock case - they said it had water in it. Next a couple days hereafter two of my “new” tires popped. I paid for them myself because my warranty - that Alfonso preached would cover everything - did not in fact cover tires. Mind you reader that at first the employees at my dealership were kind to me. It was only after I attempted to be firm with them of my displeasure that I started being treated differently - colder, condescending, and clipped in their responses. My last time dealing with them something went wrong with my transmission days after I’d replaced the tires and That’s the last time I was ever in possession of my car. After that I was over being timid and letting them take advantage. I asked to talk to Ben and instead was passed around between three different employees, and a dope of a manager that decided not relay the fact that I wished to speak to Ben and not him. Evidently he was out of town. Frustrated I turned to my parents telling them everything seeking their advise and only managed to unintentionally rial them into posting negative comments about Footh for which I can tell you finally got me a phone call saying that Ben would pay for everything. I was so happy thinking a weight was lifted until I called to check on their progress and was told Ben was going back on his word. Evidently my parents had angrily posted more comments that I had asked them to take down and not post so I called Ben trying to explain to him that their words were not mine and I had went through them rather than myself. He was less than swayed and we ended up getting in a heated discussion resulting in my having to cut the call short because it resulted with me in tears and him losing his temper on me. I’m very proud of myself for not swearing and screaming - for not allowing such a fowl vindictive man to bring me down to his level. Unfortunately still I do not have my car and have decided to get an attorney. Please do not go to Footh if you were spun the same lies I was. He couldn’t care less if you’re having car problems the only thing that matters to him is his business that I was screamed at for supposedly slandering. I just wanted my first car - that I’m paying for still - to be a happy experience. I didn’t ask for the mental strain on an already tough year. More

Wasted my time! Completely wasted my time! Went in April 26th got “approved” told me they had to go get a car from the auction, so I would have to wait until they wen Completely wasted my time! Went in April 26th got “approved” told me they had to go get a car from the auction, so I would have to wait until they went Tuesday and then gave the car an inspection. And to not go to apply anymore because they were putting me in a car for sure... Okay fine, I’m okay with that.. Texted me on April 29th asking me what can I put down despite the fact I was in there on the 26th told them what I had to put down, and was approved for that.. I texted back and told them what I had again, no reply.. Fast forward to May 4th because I hadn’t heard from anyone I contacted them asking them “what’s going on” I got the response of “oh sorry, we did get something in that I think would work but it has to pass inspection” mmmmmm so you mean you guys are just NOW getting a car for me? When were you guys going to contact me? Considering I’ve been the one having to reach out.. I ask him how long for the “inspection” he says “tomorrow”. Again keeping my cool and my patience I say “okay”... So I contact and tell them that I want to do a lower down payment.. now remind you when I first got a approved it was for $1000 down.. But when I asked for a specific car I had to put down $2000 but waiting the week and half for someone to contact me back, I spent some of the down payment money paying for rides (told them I needed a car ASAP for that reason) so he tells me “he would have to see what the bank says” which didn’t make sense to me because if I was already approved for $1000 down, I wanted to put more it wasn’t required why would the bank have a problem? So I tell him “okay that’s fine”.. Now today May 6th I’m supposed to go in and get a car... Now it’s “we might have a car for you but it won’t be ready until tomorrow or the next day after inspection, if you have to go somewhere else it’s fine” OMG!!!!! Now I’m at the point I’m pissed!!! Excuse me? “If I have to go somewhere else that’s fine”?????? You mean after you guys had me sitting around waiting for over a week!!!!!! I tell him that he replies with “the bank wants more money” how all of sudden do they want more money when they already approved me for $1000 down? “It’s going off your credit” he says You mean the SAME credit I had when I came in and got approved a week and half before???? This is the worst experience EVER! Completely wasted my time, gave me the run around! If I could give zero stars I WOULD! More

We drove all the way from rochester because we saw a video on Facebook a year ago where t I bought a chevy suburban from footh auto and am very happy. We drove all the way from rochester because we saw a video on Facebook a year ago where they were giving food away to homeless people. I told them a year ago that when i was ready for a new truck that i would by from them and i kept my promise. Me and my wife were very happy with tony the sales guy and got to meet the owner ben. I will tell my friends and neighbors to drive to the cities because footh auto sales runs a goof honest busness. More

The pride themselves on being able to get anyone a car no matter what, an that no matter what may mean selling someone a car that is going to put them further behind then they already are or leave them on the side of the road. For example selling a vehicle that has a mechanical problem, promising to fix it and then not. Another example selling a vehicle that is considered a gray market vehicle, then selling an extended warranty on the same vehicle knowing that the warranty company would reject it due to being a gray market vehicle. To top it off when this was brought to the attention of Ben Footh, the owner himself he turned his shoulder and decided to be ignorant about his wrong doing. I received lots of rude text messages as well as voicemails form Ben Footh and his general manager Ken. I was told that they would take care of the problem as long as i signed a document stating i wouldn't post any negative comments in regards to the dealership. Instead of making sure that i was taken care of as a customer they were more worried about their reputation. Think twice before ever going to this dealership! They will xxxx you over any way they can just to get a sale.... More
