Matthews-Currie Ford Co.

I called about a Dodge Grand Caravan and they had two on the lot marked both, on their website, matthewscurrie.com and on our bank's car location service, as being $17k plus change. By the time we had got t the lot marked both, on their website, matthewscurrie.com and on our bank's car location service, as being $17k plus change. By the time we had got there, they had changed the prices on their website to $21k plus change then the sales manager told me that they had two different websites. When I dared to suggest that I had typed in the same URL both times he basically called me a liar and would not do business with us. They lost a sale. We went to Tampa and bought the same van for our offered price including TT&L. I almost forgot to mention that they gave us three time what Matthews currie offered us on our trade-in. More

I was not happy with the financing department who "saved" me 1000 dollars by getting a 7.2% interest loan via ford motor credit. I was told that I had to keep it 3 months and then refinance it where "saved" me 1000 dollars by getting a 7.2% interest loan via ford motor credit. I was told that I had to keep it 3 months and then refinance it where ever I wanted to. I was told it would save me money. It does not. The front ended simple interest loan (as they all are) have charged me 414.42 in interest since my new car loan over 3 months. When I refinance I will have to pay "used" car interest rates and according to my credit union I will not qualify for the new car loan rate which comes to over 800 dollars on the life of my loan. There are other charges too that add to my "savings"! This dealership gives us the 1000 discount and finances the loan themselves. According to Ford Motor Credit hey then sell the loan to Ford motor credit for a large profit. When Ford Motor Credit heard that they advise to refinance the loans after 3 months they were not happy! Ford Motor Credit pays a premium for a 7.2% loan and then it goes away! At 7.2% I would be they get a premium for the group of loans sold and maximize the profit from you. I dont need to get more specific.... I liked the new car sales person I dealt with but if you are to buy a vehicle here arrange your own financing! More

I gave a great rating for my experience at Matthews Currie. I had the pleasure of working with Ken McMahon who took practically half of his day to make sure I got what I wanted and needed. Ken worked v Currie. I had the pleasure of working with Ken McMahon who took practically half of his day to make sure I got what I wanted and needed. Ken worked very hard on this what seems like a project for me. I had absolutely no credit and almost no bank wanted to give me alone, but with Men's patients we found one. In the end the dealership lost a little bit of money on the 2012 Chevy Kampala I purchased just so I could leave happy in a safer more reliable car for me and my one and half year old son! I cannot think of a better way to thank him!! Due to all Men's hard work dictated them with top ratings. Thank you team!! More

I had a service appt at 10am on 6/15/13. Drove all through sarasota and venice running errands. Came home at 3pm and realized my oil was draining from under my car. The service dept was closed so my through sarasota and venice running errands. Came home at 3pm and realized my oil was draining from under my car. The service dept was closed so my husband looked under car and realized drain plug was not even hand tightened. I am so disappointed in the lack of professionalism of the mechanics ability to perform a simple oil change. My paperwork states job was performed by Marc H. luckily i have husband who has mechanic skills and knew what to look for. Because having it done on saturday and the service dept not opening again until monday - waiting was not an option for me. More

Best car buying experience EVER! I drove down from Jacksonville after I finding a great deal online! I had been in communication with Ken for a few days leading up to my purchase. Ken was going to b Jacksonville after I finding a great deal online! I had been in communication with Ken for a few days leading up to my purchase. Ken was going to be off on the Sunday that I would be driving down, so he instructed me to ask for Chad Westrick. When I got there, Chad was there to greet me. The car was also already pulled up front. I was literally in and out of that dealership in 2.5 hours. The last person I spoke to was Pat Downey. What a nice man. We discussed financing and I was out the door. Everyone was so nice and professional. Thanks Chad, Ken, & Pat! I love my MKT!!! More

My husband and our two girls went to Matthews Currie Ford to look for a vehicle to purchase. We were greeted by a very friendly, knowledgable salesman. They were also having a customer appreciation cookout to look for a vehicle to purchase. We were greeted by a very friendly, knowledgable salesman. They were also having a customer appreciation cookout with delicious cheeseburgers, hot dogs, chips and ice cold water. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Our salesman, Chad Westrick, was very helpful with suggestions for our family. He didn't pressure us and was around just enough to answer our questions, yet gave us the space to browse the selections. We made our decision the same day. Mr. Keith Grening was the Business Manager who was also friendly and made the signing of paperwork so smooth with his experience and knowledge. Danny was the Finance Manager, he went out of his way to compare and find us the best rate and price that he could work for us. We will definitely come back to purchase a first vehicle for our daughter. Thank you to everyone at Matthews Currie Ford! The Klein Family More

When shopping for a new vehicle, our decision was between the Toyota Tundra and the Ford F150. The actual decision was due the expertise of your salesman, Ken McMahon. Ken took the time to inquire what I w the Toyota Tundra and the Ford F150. The actual decision was due the expertise of your salesman, Ken McMahon. Ken took the time to inquire what I was looking for in a truck, instead of trying to sell me something I did not need or want. I explained we were looking to pull a 26’ travel trailer. After asking a few more detailed questions and zeroing in on my needs, Ken then directed me to the F150 Super Crew XLT. Ken was extremely knowledgeable about the towing abilities of the truck. Ken’s total product knowledge of the vehicle was amazing. After speaking with him and driving the truck I went back to the Toyota dealership and their salesman did not know his product as well as Ken. Their sales attitude is high pressure with little product knowledge and he did not listen to what I was wanting in a vehicle, just what they were trying to sell. Our decision was very simple: to go with product knowledge and great sales ability and in the end a vehicle we are extremely pleased with. We feel Ken McMahon is a definite asset to the Matthew Currie team. We will be recommending Matthew Currie and Ken to our friends in the future. Sincerely, Joseph Geick Mary Ellen Geick More

I made an appointment for an oil change. I arrived 5 minute earily. I was told it would take an hour to complete the oil change service. After one hour and fifteen minutes, I asked how the progress on minute earily. I was told it would take an hour to complete the oil change service. After one hour and fifteen minutes, I asked how the progress on my oil change was coming along. I was informed that they had not started servicing my car. They did not inform me that there would be any delays. They did not offer to drive me home or give me a car for the day until they got to my car serviced. This was my first visit to this dealer and most likely my last. They offered me a free oil change if I would come back another day. Come back? I think they were joking. I feel this was very little compensation for the poorest service I have ever had at any service company. More

I inquired about a ford fusion hybrid (2013) on line. A lady called me and we set up an appointment to test drive a 2013 fusion hybrid. It was set for 1pm december 29. Upon arriving at the dealership I a lady called me and we set up an appointment to test drive a 2013 fusion hybrid. It was set for 1pm december 29. Upon arriving at the dealership I asked for Mark (I was not given his last name) The receptionist said she will find him. About 5 minutes later he comes out carryiing a plate of food and said he is busy with 2 other customers and will find someone else to help me.. Another 10 minutes and he comes back and says what am I interested in. I told him I had an appointment to test drive a 2013 fusion hybrid (which on line shows you had at least one in stock) He said we don't have any. I was disappointed and he turned around and left me standing there. end of story. The more I thought about the madder I became. Very sorry salesmanship!!
