Good initial service, bad follow up (follow through) I purchased a used vehicle. After a couple days I noticed it had a few problems. Wiper blades were broke, drivers side windshield molding was coming o I purchased a used vehicle. After a couple days I noticed it had a few problems. Wiper blades were broke, drivers side windshield molding was coming off, the drivers side window wouldn't close properly because of molding and the vehicle needed an alignment. **Additionally the transmission slips at 70MPH+.** The dealership has not responded to these issues. I would recommend a different dealership for used vehicle sales based on poor follow up. **Update. I was contacted by the dealership and my vehicle is currently being looked at. My biggest concern remains the transmission. It slips at 70mph+. This would have been difficult for the dealership or myslef to spot during a test drive. I hope with this being a "new" vehicle to me, we can come to a resolution. I will update this post upon completion of whatever action is taken. I'm hopeful the vehicle will be totally fixed. More

Great Experience! I had been shopping around for a new vehicle for about 2 months before just stopping in to wander the lot full of cars. Chris Andreas was out on the l I had been shopping around for a new vehicle for about 2 months before just stopping in to wander the lot full of cars. Chris Andreas was out on the lot and was helpful educating me on the different vehicles, models and options...and the fast way to ID the model I was interested in. I was looking at the EDGE, and wanted the sport version,...and he was able to help me out!...It's the "black-out grill" that is the mark of the Sport Edge! LOL! Since I was there at the end of the day, I set up a test drive with Chris for the Weekend. It was great! Nice long drive in traffic and the highway....and then we switched seats and he demonstrated the different "parking" and "safety" assist functions...It was a no-brainer for me. Chris was on-top of the process, got the paperwork started and this was a fast transaction. Smooth and really easy. Easy to contact and keep in touch with Chris... very friendly, professional, and honest. When I asked questions that he didn't have answers for, he got the people that did...and fast. Namely, Brian Driver in the parts and accessories area was definitely a big help. I was replacing a VW diesel that was part of the buyback program, and had tried many cars and trucks and different makes...I was very close to purchasing a GM crossover from a neighboring dealership...and for some odd reason, never thought to try Ford, The biggest selling points were the great people in the showroom (Chris and Brian), the awesome car, competitive price, solid feel of the vehicle, lots of "technology, engineering and toys"....and this car was built in the USA, not China. I like having a home built, high quality car....And it is AWD and loads of power from the twin turbocharged V6....great in the snow and rain...and my 80 year old mom was able to get in and out without being boosted or pulled up and in...and she felt safe and comfortable....That's a HUGE win for me ...all around! Thanks again to Chris and Brian...I stumbled in on a fluke and left very happy!...Also wanted to give kudos to the personal familiarization with the features of the car before leaving the showroom. The young lady that helped me with the technology and toys in the car...and the touch screen dash...everything was wonderful...I am so sorry I don't recall her name, she was very helpful. Big plusses all around! Gary Penn More

Good service, good follow up. Nice vehicle. Average price. Response from initial inquiry to close of deal was very good. No waiting on either visit which was great. Sales Consultant Kris Crawford was easy to d Response from initial inquiry to close of deal was very good. No waiting on either visit which was great. Sales Consultant Kris Crawford was easy to deal with and helpful throughout. Ultimately it was his follow up with information regarding vehicle maintenance history which was key to the deal. If not for that I had planned to walk away based on price. My only two "cons" is that there was little to no concession on the listed price and no attempt to sweeten the deal. I feel I paid an average price but not a spectacular deal by any means. Only other "con" was that it is a nice vehicle but interior detailing left a little to be desired. Exterior detailing was good. They were able to handle my insurance changes as there is an Allstate agent on-site, and accepted my rental car return which saved me a trip. Both were nice full-service features. More
