Superb Service As Always! Another superb service as usual! Definitely Rob Bender is the BEST of the BEST! Always service with a smile and gives that personal touch that makes Another superb service as usual! Definitely Rob Bender is the BEST of the BEST! Always service with a smile and gives that personal touch that makes everyone feel special. It keeps me coming back. I have to say though, today service was even more so extraordinary, along with getting an oil change, replacing air in the tires with Nitro and installing a front license plate done by Julio Rodriguez, who did an exceptional job, Thank YOU Julio, I also had my vehicle detailed by Pat. The quality of the detail was totally Awesome, looked like a new car both inside and out. But what was even more Awesome is when I got in my car to leave, I noticed 2 5$ in the cup holder. A feeling of great gratitude came over me, like WOW, how amazing, this doesn't happen too many times. It was very heartwarming!! I looked for Rob, but he wasn't in his office, so I headed back home and called him. I asked who was the person who found the money and he told me "Pat was and he called me to tell me he found it and I asked him to just place it in the cup holder". I expressed my extreme surprise and deep appreciation and ask for him to please pass it forward to Pat. Thank YOU Pat for your true honesty, integrity, professionalism and superb workmanship!! Many Thanks to Everyone! Teresa Touchton More
My wife booked the 2012 focus in for a parking break repair for 8 am on a Saturday, what a waste of time, parked the car in the line and stood in a queue for 20 mins while any one in front that didn't h repair for 8 am on a Saturday, what a waste of time, parked the car in the line and stood in a queue for 20 mins while any one in front that didn't have an appointment was served before me, mentioned this to the service rep and got a whole lot of attitude , poor service as well, left without getting repair done while the service rep still shouting at us, disgraceful service dept , shame on you karl flammer ford , this will be the last new car I will buy from you..

My first experience with this dealership was in October of 2013. It was extraordinarily great; I told my friends at work that it was wonderful. My experience in February of 2014 was the exact opposite. of 2013. It was extraordinarily great; I told my friends at work that it was wonderful. My experience in February of 2014 was the exact opposite. The interior hood release was broken, so I took it in for repair. I arrived at my appointment time (7:30 am) and was ignored for 10 minutes. "Service" individuals walked all around me, yet no one asked if I had been helped. One individual stated "they are coming in droves today". Nothing like hearing that to make a customer feel like she is an annoynance rather than a valued customer. When I finally found someone to help me, my "service advisor" was rude, even suggesting that I had abused my car resulting in the broken part. Despite being a previous customer, my name was spelled wrong, making it difficult to find my reservation for service. After 2 1/2 days, the appropriate part finally was acquired and my car was released to me. The windshield wiper fluid had not been replaced as I had requested. The car was dirty. At least I wasn't charged, for the repair was covered by warranty. Will I return? Maybe, but only for the convenient location of the dealership. At least this time, I know to expect poor service and won't be disappointed. More

As always every body there have been friendly, courteious and genuinely appreciative of our patronage. I always go into the show room to talk to may salesman Doug Gerhart at each visit. I did so this time, and also requested to speak to Mehgan Flammer which I did. She not only came out of her office to meet me, but spent probably 10 minutes chatting with me on a variety of issues, as well as the dealership and Ford cars in general. We really like dealing with Flammer, as it is a smaller dealership, so the feeling of being not only a customer, but part of the gang is awlays prevelant. Thank you to all for taking care of our service needs, and rest assured our continued patronage will be for many years to come. Sincerely, Ted and Marci Paige More

You can purchase a car or truck anywhere but great service after the sale is what's important. Service at Karl Flammer Ford is excellent and working with Rob Bender in the service department is always a pleasure. Having professional sales people such as Tom Saffero on their staff to assists with your buying decision is a real added bonus. Their finance department is invaluable when it comes time to select a finance plan that is best suited to your budgetary needs. Follow up after the sale as well as after each service visit is excellent. Over the past twelve years I have purchased three vehicles from Karl Flammer Ford. In each case I was always treated professionally and with respect. I have purchased many vehicles in my lifetime however, the most pleasurable transactions were with Karl Flammer Ford. The sales experience is always a pleasure but the service is what keeps me coming back. Oh, yes there really is a Karl Flammer. I have met him and had lengthy conversation on a variety of subject matter. If you have the pleasure of meeting him you'll understand why his dealership operates the way it does. All of the aforementioned reasons are why I prefer to do business with Karl Flammer Ford and also why I will continue to go there for my future purchases and service. P. Dove, Hudson, FL More
