There comes a time when a business can step up and help a customer in need in a unique situation, and unfortunately Hoffman failed miserably to help to take care of a previous customer. My father purc More

There comes a time when an individual, like [customer name removed], deserves to be called out for a review like this to try to manipulate others into believing his 1-star review of Hoffman Ford…. Much like his other 1-star reviews he gives hiding behind the username of [customer name removed], they too are probably not merited, and it seems he just likes being a keyboard warrior when he does not get the desired outcome he wants, even though we did everything in our power to help him and his mother in their current situation. We attempted to help his mother first. She called in and spoke to our title clerk a few weeks ago. She explained that her husband had passed away, and he has a few cars in storage, and she could not find the title for the ‘07 Mustang GT500 that her husband purchased from us in 2006. She, told us that she thought the vehicle was never titled or registered by her husband and asked us if we would be able to get a Manufacturer Statement of Origin (MSO) so that they could sell the vehicle. (Keep in mind by the original customer not titling and registering the vehicle back in ‘06 he caused a monetary chargeback by Ford to us at Hoffman Ford). We looked up the name of [customer name removed] Step-Father to see if he was in our system, which he was not. (We would find out later that the vehicle was purchased under a Company Name) [customer name removed] Mother provided our us with the VIN, and Ford’s system did not allow us to request a duplicate MSO as it returned an error “Unknown Model Year.” We informed [customer name removed] mother that the system does not allow us to request a duplicate after 7 years. It had been over 16 years since we sold the vehicle, and we told her that all we could do is provide her with the customer support # to Ford and to see if they could help her, and apologized that we at the dealer could not submit a request. [customer name removed] called Ford Customer Relations, and we were alerted a case had been opened on 4/26 regarding the VIN in question and another ‘07 GT500. The case states that customer requested “research” of the VIN and Ford closed the case with the note of “Compliance Letter” sent to customer. This letter is an official letter drafted on Ford letterhead with the associated VIN, that may fulfill the requirements of the DMV concerning the cars' origin. A few days go by and [customer name removed] now calls back into Hoffman Ford on 5/9 and asks to speak with a Sales Manager and informs us that he is the step-son and is trying to sell these cars through a wholesaler, and needs to get a duplicate MSO for the ‘07 Mustang as it has been kept in storage since his step-father purchased it back in 2006. At no time did [customer name removed] say anything about a fire or knowing the original MSO was lost in the fire, and informed us that it was never titled or registered in MD by his Step-Father. We asked our title clerk if the was anything we could do for him, she stated that she already spoke to [customer name removed] mother and that there is nothing we could do. Since the vehicle was purchased by his late Step-Father’s Company, we called [customer name removed] back and informed him that there was nothing we at the dealership could do, but did inform [customer name removed] that it would probably require the owner of the company, since his step-father passed away, to reach out to Ford. We also informed [customer name removed] that he will probably need to get attorneys involved since this is a very complex matter with Titles and registrations for an unregistered car. Even though we attempted to help, we are limited by what we can do. We went out of our way to help in this situation, just to get a 1-star review. Ford likely told him the same info and only issued a “Compliance Letter.” In the future [customer name removed] needs to tell the whole truth and others should probably not take his reviews for face value because this one could not be further from the truth. We at Hoffman Ford truly hope that [customer name removed] and his mother can solve their situation at hand and are sorry for their loss.
