Hemborg Ford

Negligence, Lack of Accountability, and Zero Transparency — Proceed with Caution I brought my vehicle to Hemborg Ford in December 2024 to repair a leak. They diagnosed the issue as needing a transfer case — Proceed with Caution I brought my vehicle to Hemborg Ford in December 2024 to repair a leak. They diagnosed the issue as needing a transfer case reseal, oil pan reseal, and CV shaft replacements. While in their care, my vehicle sustained over $8,000 in physical damage — reportedly due to the hood not being latched during test drive or the wind catching it while in the garage, depends on which of their conflicting stories you believe. What’s worse is that I wasn’t notified of the incident until 03/01/25, only after I noticed my vehicle was no longer on the lot and contacted them. I later found out that the repair documentation was created on 02/28/25— meaning they had moved the vehicle and started repair process before even telling me it had been damaged. Due to delays from defective parts and backorder items the repair took nearly a month. Even more alarming: on the day of the damage 02/27/25, my vehicle began issuing several system alerts: - Powertrain malfunction - Service steering - Charging system fault - TPMS fault - Service engine soon (multiple) None of these alerts were acknowledged or documented by the technician. When I picked up the vehicle on 03/27/25, I made it less than half a mile before it began shuddering severely. I returned immediately and was told it sounded like a transmission issue but was told it was unrelated to anything they had done. At Ford Corporate’s suggestion, I gave Hemborg Ford another chance. After a test drive with the Service Manager who noted the issue right away as well took it in and informed me it may be a program issue, after a few days at the dealership I was later told I’d need to authorize $6,000 for a transmission teardown and $800 to reprogram the TPMS. The TPMS warning itself specifically stated that this issue could result from battery or camera replacement — both of which were performed during service. Also worth noting: over 50 miles were added to my vehicle during their care with no explanation or documentation. When I asked about this, they offered no evidence or accountability. I emailed the owner, Mr. Hemborg, directly — he never responded. Instead, I received a call from the Service Manager who informed me that he reviewed the alerts and confirmed they occurred on days my vehicle was in their care but are unrelated to my issue. I was told their internal records “could not be shared with me.” He also said he spoke with Mr. Hemborg again and that they would not accept any responsibility whatsoever for the damage or ongoing issues. This vehicle was my family’s primary transportation. Due to their delays and mishandling, we missed holidays, birthdays, and business obligations. As a business owner and member of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, I would never treat a customer the way I’ve been treated — especially not after being given every opportunity to make it right privately. If you’ve experienced something similar at Hemborg Ford, please reach out — my team would be interested in speaking with you. Bottom line:There was a clear opportunity to take ownership and do the right thing. Instead, I got silence, deflection, and a vehicle in worse condition than when I brought it in. Proceed with caution. More

Avoid this dealership if you're in the market for a car! They give you a single price online, but once you step into the sales department, they hit you (in my case with an extra $1,800) for mandatory add-on They give you a single price online, but once you step into the sales department, they hit you (in my case with an extra $1,800) for mandatory add-ons like Lojack and some unnecessary tape, claiming they can't be removed. Despite refusing these extras, I was still charged. Now, after getting home and attempting to activate the Lojack, I find out it was never installed! To make matters worse, they expect me to bring the vehicle back to have it installed, even though I already paid for it. Unbelievable! More

Terrible bought a used 2021 ford explorer with 64000 miles in July of 2024. Since them my car has been in the service department longer than I've had the vehicle at home. Multiple service repairs drives miles in July of 2024. Since them my car has been in the service department longer than I've had the vehicle at home. Multiple service repairs driveshaft replacement, differential replacement and now the 4th time a transfer case that's costing 2500 dollars. From my service advisor jose all the way to the supervisor Robert have been lack of communication and 0 customer service. Sometimes a week would go by before I received a call back from Robert or Jose. With this 4th time being told " you should be happy with these repairs" to " well you did by a used car" so I'm guessing the sales guys and the service guys are incahoots one sells bad cars the other takes us for a ride with repairs. No accountability tried talking to used car sales manager still waiting for a call back going on 5 days. More

I can’t quite understand why I was going to be charged $502 to change out a sensor that costs $43 and took 2 minutes to change out. I very pleased with Elias and his great communication! $502 to change out a sensor that costs $43 and took 2 minutes to change out. I very pleased with Elias and his great communication! More

Service dept. manager Robert is not very customer service oriented and is very inconsiderate. He refused to service my vehicle and was very rude. My vehicle had manager Robert is not very customer service oriented and is very inconsiderate. He refused to service my vehicle and was very rude. My vehicle had recalls after recalls since day of purchase. Not once did they try to accommodate me in trying to get me into something different. Rudy in sales, however, was always trying to do his best to help out and accommodate us. But the sales managers were never willing to negotiate a deal. We went elsewhere and got into a much better and beautiful vehicle and had excellent service. Never will I recommend Hemborg to anyone. Don't waste your time going there. More
