My Dealership, Greenway Ford, participates in the DealerRater.com Certified Dealer Program. We are committed to providing high quality customer service, but based on your DealerRater.com review, you did not share that experience. That is very disappointing to us, and through this program we have the opportunity to work with you to resolve any issues with your experience at our dealership. I welcome that opportunity.

Janine, I appreciate your contacting me as well as Arsene calling my son. I was going to e-mail Arsene directly with some final thoughts as during his recent phone call to my son he told what I believe to be falsehoods. IE: He told my son that he did not know I was in the dealership Wednesday, the second day I had come back to actually purchase the car. I cannot imagine how this can be as my son had to e-mail his power of attorney and proof of insurance to Arsene's e-mail address. I know for a fact Arsene received these e-mails as Rick Jordan came out into the show room WITH the hard copies of each informing me they had finally come through. Unless Arsene has other people checking his e-mail unbeknownst to him he had to have known I was there. That was also at a point in the day that I had been there and already signed several copies of legalities that Rick quickly disappeared with and as Arsene was the one "doing the deal" I would have assumed he would have to have had possession of those papers that I signed. Arsene also told my son that he did not in fact recall telling my son that the misunderstanding about the price quoted and the out the door price being different was totally his problem. Arsene had told my son in a previous conversation (taking place Wednesday via phone from Germany as I was in the dealership waiting to finish the purchase process)that it was completely my sons fault that he did not understand the difference between a quote and an out the door price and that it was his fault not Greenways. Upon stating that Arsene had little else to say and basically hung up on my son. At which point my son called me and told me to go ahead and go home. I returned the car key to the receptionist as there was no one else who had been dealing with me available. I thanked her and apologized that I simply cannot deal like this then my daughter and I left. I am traditionally not the human to broadcast negativity and I absolutely make a habit of praising publicly and correcting privately. However after trying to reach Arsene while in the same building with him and being unable to do so. All the while dealing with a situation that I believe could have been remedied between my son and himself had it been handled a bit differently I did not feel anything I had to say directly to Arsene would have been heard. On that line of thought my son informed me today that Arsene has called him back offering him the car at the “quoted price.” This again proves my point below. I too am a business owner who values input both positive and negative. I am always quick to remedy in as much as it is within my power any ‘situation’ with a patron understanding the power of viral communication. I also understand there are times when I as a business owner cannot give in full the end result a patron expects or desires. With this in mind I go to great lengths to communicate with them in such a way that even though they did not in fact get the end result they desired they still go away from the situation our friend. From my observations after ten hours time over two days spent in Greenway I believe it would serve Arsene very well to be in control of his environment thus be in control of his mental/emotional faculties. It seemed both times we were there he was rushed/pressed/hurried. I am not sure if this is created by him or by the business environment itself. Maybe he has no control over “the five directions he gets pulled”. If he had actually taken the time Wednesday to apologize for the misunderstanding regardless of whose fault it was and pursued trying to meet even in the middle of the two prices that would have been wonderful. I can promise you even if the dealership could not have come down enough to make a deal the effort and grace given would have been noted and we would have walked away satisfied and my son would have learned a valuable lesson in financing language. Instead I had to broadcast negativity to get a response. That is something to note. Having purchased many new cars myself I understand the stress of the whole deal however in every other transaction I have participated in I knew, even when I walked away without the car that this person was there to make sure I had a positive experience. That is what was missing. I am sorry I was unaware of the language barrier between Arsene and my son before I was sitting there signing papers noting the difference between the check in my hand and the out the door price or I could have rectified it earlier. All in all, whether it is Arsene himself or the work environment of Greenway that is the issue some time management and people/communication skill efforts may be in order. Best Wishes, Elisabeth K.

I recently had a water pump replaced and was satisfied with everything but the price. If a timing chain only cost $345.00 and more work has to be done to get to it then why does a water pump cost $800+ to More
