Wayne Akers Ford - Service Center

Bad service Several months back my 05 F150 started running rough and I took it to another dealer for service. My plugs were changed (at 130,000 miles) along with Several months back my 05 F150 started running rough and I took it to another dealer for service. My plugs were changed (at 130,000 miles) along with boots and 1 coil pack. Last week I started to experience the same symptoms, running rough. Since I work in Lake Worth I took it to Wayne Akers and explained what had happened before expecting another coil to have gone bad. Now there is 155,000 miles on the vehicle. I was called a couple of hours later and told my entire engine was shot, a thrasher washer on the crank was damaged and "slipping back and forth" blocking oil ports and oil from reaching the top of the motor. I told the service writer I would come and pick up my truck. Once there I was greeted by a rather angry and belligerent service writer apparently with a "need to be right" complex rather than listen to a customer. The "technician" also appeared with my truck and explained they don't fix this issue because of the miles on the vehicle, only replacement was offered. At $8100...... He also explained the "thrasher washer" was in the center of the block. I had looked it up the night before and know it to be in the front of the crank. None the less I babied my truck up to Stuart to Advantage Ford, where I had experienced terrific service prior and dropped it off at about 7pm. The next morning at about 9am I received a call from the technician at Advantage telling me there was nothing at all "wrong" with my engine other than a several lack of oil, had anyone at the other dealership bothered to check the oil level? It was due for a change so of course I had it drained and replace and now for a week my truck runs like it always had.....perfect. Having never experienced this truck "loosing" oil in between servicing I can't imagine where it all went. I only had 4500 miles since its last change. The truck does not burn oil nor are there any leaks. There is however a service bulletin on this issue of the thrasher washer which in all honesty should be covered by Ford, but that's another story. This engine is fine! I will never recommend nor bring my own vehicle to this dealership for service of any kind. More

Worst service center support in South Florida Bought a 2014 Ford from here last year. Every time I bring it in for service I am greeted by the guy with the worst attitude. He is just unhappy with Bought a 2014 Ford from here last year. Every time I bring it in for service I am greeted by the guy with the worst attitude. He is just unhappy with his job I guess. He's never in a good mood and everything you tell him about warranty service he blames on you the customer. He never once will side with the customer, isn't his job based on customer service? Also now I am being told that they no longer offer loaner cars for warranty repair. So I buy a 40k car and while it's under warrantee I have to pay anther $150 to rent a car, guess they get a kick back on that rental fee as well because they won't call you back for at least 2 days. STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!! More

Servive Writer and bogus work needed report really suck I have been using Wayne Akers for over 25 years. They have service my vehicles..........Wayne, Jr, (RIP) suddenly passed away from an airplane accide I have been using Wayne Akers for over 25 years. They have service my vehicles..........Wayne, Jr, (RIP) suddenly passed away from an airplane accident. The service department has been gradually depreciating since his passing and now has hit al all time low. When you arrive in the express lane and porter (AJ?) and a Service Writer Charles meets you. AJ lifts the hood check battery. Terminal tape read GOOD. I ask Charles how long to do tire rotation, oil change and look at a hole in tire. Charles says, "Under an hour". Charles writes it up and directs you to a VIP lounge...... Jerry Springer Show is on the TV; go figure. 45 mins later Charles comes back with a list of stuff (like 5 must have repairs) they recommend to be done. I guess he did not check his computer they did some of that stuff 4 months ago. He said I need a new tire but didn't have in stock but wants to put an unmatching tire on for $145.00. I get the same tire for $95.00 installed. He said I needed a new battery and showed me another thermal tape different from the one AJ had. I told Charles to put new battery in since I have 5 electronics in my car that stay on all night but asked him to find the one AJ had. He could not find it and said AJ probably did not test the battery; Chucky lied; he had AJ tape when he wrote up the deal.......................... BOTTOMLINE.............. Another Great company becomes SCAM ARTIST in the Palm Beaches. I wonder what happens to peoples ethics when the almighty $$$ is involve. Shame on you Wayne Aker Service. PS Your Cashiers in service are embarrassed at the Con-Artist and scams too, AJ is a good person whom I do not think was involved with the scam; unfortunately the others are falling for the loyal employee that scams customers.

I, Gloria Soto, took my car to get an oil change on July 13, 2013. They did an inspection and damage my air filter box and will not replace it. The letter below is a letter that i have emailed to the director of sales "Charles Howell" and he will not pay for the part. He will only pay for the labor to repair the part. This is not acceptable. We should have to pay for any parts being that they were the last company to preformed the service work on my vehicle. More

After fleecing us for $1000 to fix a couple sensors, they screwed up the milaege screen in process. The screen was perfect until we brought it to them, and not working when we picked it up.(pretty simple yo screwed up the milaege screen in process. The screen was perfect until we brought it to them, and not working when we picked it up.(pretty simple you'd think) After bringing it back for them to 'look' at, they offered to replace the unit for $600! They refused to do anything about their screw up.....of course "it wasn't their fault"...."they didn't touch it." I told them, if I ran my business that way, I'd be out of business. Just wish we had found this review board before throwing away good money. More
