We purchased a 2021 Ford Expedition Max on 12/20/2024. Our salesman, Julian, was top notch, very knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating. The whole experience took a turn in the finance area. We met with Michael Mallory, and agreed to add a Vehicle Service Contract for $3,995.00. We paid cash. Once we got home, we noticed that he had added in 2 items that we had never discussed, much less agreed to - Recovr Vehicle Location and theft recovery device agreement, and Paint and Fabric Protection and Limited Warranty Contract for a total of $2,298.00, both of which are not required to purchase a vehicle.
We emailed him twice asking for an explanation, which he completely ignored and never responded to. We were very disappointed, as we thought we had a decent rapport with him. We never imagined he would pull a stunt like that. Even worse, we wrote an actual letter to Kevin Gordon, the General Manager, and he never responded either. That just goes to show you that not only do they ignore that type of behavior, they actually condone it. Poor ethics from the top on down.
If you buy a car from this dealership, be very careful -- they may try to slip something past you as well. I would have given them zero stars, but the actual sales experience with Julian was excellent. Everything that happened after that was extremely disappointing and frustrating. It smacks of stereotypical sneaky car salesman tactics at best, complete deliberate deception at worst.
