New Truck is a lemon I bought a new 2013 Ford F150 crew cab xlt with ecoboost. The transmission has been leaking ever since the first oil change. They are working on it no I bought a new 2013 Ford F150 crew cab xlt with ecoboost. The transmission has been leaking ever since the first oil change. They are working on it now for the fourth time and Chris Akin the General Manager refuses to buy it back. It has gotten me in trouble at my job as I have had to call out for repairs. I took a short vacation with my family and was forced to use a loaner vehicle instead of driving in my new truck which would have been much more comfortable than the budget car. When buying a new f150 make sure to look at the transmission gear changes on the dash and make sure that 2nd gear engages when the vehicle shifts down. I was told by one of the service people that the computers have been programmed to skip second gear because of some rough shifting issues that no one ever told me about before I bought the truck.

Dishonest quotes I was quoted a price for a new car by this dealership via email and when I got there they changed the price by a bit more than 2000 dollars. Dishonest I was quoted a price for a new car by this dealership via email and when I got there they changed the price by a bit more than 2000 dollars. Dishonest dealership, dishonest salesmen, at least the one I dealt with anyway. I did not buy the car and would never buy one from this mess of a place. More

I walked into this dealership in desperate need of a new car. I was pretty sure I could only drive away in a used one based on what I could afford. Working with the team at Akins was not only a great exper car. I was pretty sure I could only drive away in a used one based on what I could afford. Working with the team at Akins was not only a great experience but I didn't feel pressured. I felt like they were on my side and wanted to do the best they could for my situation. I ended up driving away in a brand new Ford Focus and could not be happier with both my car and my payment. Not only did they make sure I had everything I needed before we drove away but they took the time a week later to teach me more about my car and answer any questions I had. Thank you to everyone at Akins and especially Ron Marsh for a great car buying experience. I will be spreading the word about how great you all are! More
We were brought into Akins Ford because of an internet sales flayer. We had visited another Ford Dealership earlier that week and did not receive the care and professional treatment that we received from sales flayer. We had visited another Ford Dealership earlier that week and did not receive the care and professional treatment that we received from Ron Marsh and the Akins’ team. We were shown the vehicle that we asked about in the sales flayer and we were given space to inspect and discuss purchasing the vehicle. Once we decided to purchase the car, the process was easy and painless. Ron had all the answers and was able to show us all the features of our new Fusion. We made this purchase on Black Friday and even with all the traffic, Ron was able to give us outstanding customer service. So far we are enjoying our purchase and would buy from Akins again. More
I called Brad Akin to tell him I was going to buy a new f-250, after searching online at other dealers he ask me to come to his dealership. I went to winder met Neil Wray, Mr. Akins had already pulled a tr f-250, after searching online at other dealers he ask me to come to his dealership. I went to winder met Neil Wray, Mr. Akins had already pulled a truck for me to drive. While test driving he called me to review my trade, when I returned he had all the numbers worked out and gave me a great deal. I guess that's why I have bought 6 vehicles in the past from Akins ford. If you don't buy there your paying to much. Great guy. Thanks Brent. More
We were immediately put in the market for a replacement vehicle when our original car was totaled in an accident. Already under a little stress from the accident combined with a previous bad experience wi vehicle when our original car was totaled in an accident. Already under a little stress from the accident combined with a previous bad experience with a different dealership, I didn't know what to expect while visiting my local Akins dealership. I am pleased to report I had a very pleasant and stress-free experience. Alan OMaley has a very laid back approach but very knowledgeable about the products at Akins Ford. I had no idea what type of car I wanted, but I never once felt like an inconvenience to Alan as I test drove quite a few cars.....with two children in car seats!! Once we found a car that would be a suitable replacement, we were concerned about the timing of settling the accident and getting a check from our insurance company to apply to our purchase. Jason McDaniel, who also has a calming presence, assured me that timing wouldn't be an issue and I wouldn't have to worry about the car being sold out from under me pending settlement. Our family appreciates the measures Jason took to create customer loyalty, and Alan's approach to customer service. We are pleased with our "new" car and have every reason to believe it's a good product. If something unexpectedly goes wrong, we have no doubt that Akins Ford will stand behind its product and continue to provide excellent customer service. More
I have to admit, Akins of Winder was not the first dealership that I thought of going to when I decided that it was time for me to replace my car. A co-work gave me a business card for Mr.Leroy Haynes dealership that I thought of going to when I decided that it was time for me to replace my car. A co-work gave me a business card for Mr.Leroy Haynes. Her mother had just purchased a car from there. I called Mr. Haynes and told him what my needs were and what my budget was. Mr. Haynes worked with me to find me what I feel was the perfect vehicle for me. I love my New 2014 Ford Focus! Also, I can honestly say that this was the best car buying experience I have ever had. I drove away truly feeling like I received excellent service through out the entire process. The entire Akins dealership is a pleasure to be in. I would definitely recommend any one who is thinking about purchasing a vehicle to give Mr. Haynes a call. Sincerely, Mike M. Athens, Ga More
After a negative experience at our local dealership, my wife and I drove 35 miles to see the people at Akins Ford. My father and grandfather had purchased cars from them in the past 5 years and enjoyed the wife and I drove 35 miles to see the people at Akins Ford. My father and grandfather had purchased cars from them in the past 5 years and enjoyed their experience and recommended that we pay these guys a visit. We were immediately greeted by Ron and he took our concerns to heart and wasted no time getting us the best offer for our new 2014 Ford Escape. He was courteous, professional and prompt, all while juggling another potential sale. Overall the experience was the exact opposite of the previous dealership and we walked away with the car we wanted at the price we needed. If you are in the market for a new Ford, Dodge, Chrysler, or Jeep, I recommend you go see Ron at Akins Ford. You will thank yourself that you did. More
