My 2013 Ford Escape SEL purchase 2/18/8014 I purchased my SUV and brought it home on February 28, 2014. I was told that it had been sitting "in the back lot" for a while. After about 3 weeks I purchased my SUV and brought it home on February 28, 2014. I was told that it had been sitting "in the back lot" for a while. After about 3 weeks of driving it, the brakes started to grind etc. I brought it back - it seems that there was rust on the brake thing and it would cost me to have it fixed. Well, I mentioned that I had purchased it not too long ago and that it has not sat a day since it was purchased and that the rust was from when it sat "in the back lot". Our salesman was able to take care of that for me. Then there started to be a clunking coming from the left front wheel area (spring perhaps, strut perhaps). It has been in 4 times in the past year and it still isn't fixed. I will be bringing it in for the 5th time in the near future. As soon as it got cold and there was frost on the windows, I noticed that the several of the defroster lines in the back window did not work. The SUV was brought in for that - in fact it has been in 3 times for it to be fixed. Now, it's to the point where instead of no lines, there are globs on the lines where the window defrosts and the rest on the line does not. I was asked by the service manager why the lines were scraped off - how would I know? I know I didn't climb in the back and scrape them off. For one thing, I'm an adult and see no reason why I would ruin an expensive purchase and the other is that I'm not that flexible enough to do it. It will be going back for that again. How many more times do I have to bring in the vehicle to get items complete fixed. What happed with their so many point inspection of a used care? Obviously some items were missed because of the rust on the brake things. As it is now, I am not planning to purchase from them again and I am sharing the information with my friends and family. Each time it the vehicle was brought in, it had to be dropped off the night before because they don't open until 7 - I start work at 6:30 - and a car had to be used that someone else owned. More

work suggested at oil change I went into Brighton ford for an oil change. ,,,after 20 minutes or so I was advised that my 2003 Taurus needed work that would total 1,476.00 dollar I went into Brighton ford for an oil change. ,,,after 20 minutes or so I was advised that my 2003 Taurus needed work that would total 1,476.00 dollars. Wow,, I said okay. .after about 5 hrs or so I was called that I could come and get my car. Over the weekend I heard a thumping sound coming from the right rear break area so I brought the car back to Bribgton. They checked it out and found a "wheel cylinder seized on one side , that shoe is not contacting drum "... $164.00 to fix this problem. So I said okay fix it.. ...Then I asked, I think it was Katelyn Vinzant (service adviser ),,,Why wasn't deduced and corrected at my initial visit. ? She said she'd check into it and call me back.. She called me back and said she spoke with the mechanics who did the work and he / they told her that he spoke to the costumer and that I had declined it ( A Lie ).. I told her the only person I had any contact with was The person at the desk in the oil quick change area and the guy who gave me a ride home. again I told her the shop crew (mechanics were lying . So I asked to speak to her supervisor ,,,Now I was speaking with Justin a service manager I believe. He said he had spoke to the mechanic who preformed the work also and the mechanic told the same lie to him. I told Justin no one contacted or spoke to me about the cylinder problem at my initial visit. He said there was a miscalculation problem ,,I raised my voice because he was try to over talk me I kept telling him and he wouldst listen ,,,(THERE WAS NO COMMUNICATION from any mechanic or any one from brighton about a cylinder problem ,,in person,,by phone OR written. ) THE MECHANIC IS bald face Lying. To you,Katelyn and the Brighton Ford ) Thinking about it, the thumping didn't occur until after I took the car from Brighton the first time.Justin offered to knock off 20 % off the now $200.00 bill. I said how about all the bill ,it wouldn't have happened if it was taken care of the first time. He said no .I said fine,,,and asked if they could send some one to give me a ride back to Brighton Ford, he said okay. I was surprised that when the car came to get me it wasn't one of their two drivers whose job it is to give customers a ride normally. It was the service manager him self (Justin ) I apologized if I had gotten upset on the phone. In the ride back to Brighton Ford we spoke of this mess. I figured he came to get me so I wouldn't bring this situation up again in front of other customers ,especially about Brightons lying and untrustworthy mechanics. I told him these lying mechanics should be talked to if not fired and Josh said believe me they will be... Well the car is okay But how do I know that any of the $1,467.00 worth of work was necessary in the first place after catching them, ( Brighton Ford) in a LIE..... there is no apology that can make up for what happened at my last and I mean last visit. I will never recommend Brighton Ford to any one. Not sure who to send this to so i checked others in the employees worked with and wanted Bill Janssen to be advised also. Bob Terlisner More

Low Pressure - High Satisfaction We purchased a 2014 Escape on Tuesday from Rich Schmitt and he was awesome! He asked what options we wanted in our vehicle and how much car payment w We purchased a 2014 Escape on Tuesday from Rich Schmitt and he was awesome! He asked what options we wanted in our vehicle and how much car payment we could afford, then he showed us the cars that fit those needs. He was attentive thru the whole process keeping us informed while we waited on financing. For the financing we worked with Tony Smebak - he was great too. He shopped for the absolute best interest rate for our purchase. The whole experience was outstanding from the minute we walked in until we drove out of the lot in our new Escape!! I will recommend Rich to all my friends and family!! More
