Oil change and Inspection. I received a coupon in the mail for "The Works" for $49.00 (I think) so I called to make an appointment and was told to simply come to the Quick Serv I received a coupon in the mail for "The Works" for $49.00 (I think) so I called to make an appointment and was told to simply come to the Quick Service Area. At my convenience I went and, even though they were making major repairs to the parking lot limiting access, they took me right in. About half way through the service the power went off. With no lights, everyone went to lunch. The lights came back on after a few minutes but I had to wait a few more minutes for the Tech to return. They discovered and informed me that my State Inspection was due, so, I told them to go ahead. They went ahead and did most of the inspection and then came out and apologized that they could not complete it because the power failure had knocked out the computer that does the emissions test and that I would need to return another day to get the emissions test and the stickers. I returned next day and they completed everything. Through all this everyone was polite friendly and professional. They got everything done as best they could under conditions over which they had no control. And, even though I forgot my coupon, they honored it anyway. I'll be back. More
Scheduled alignment appointment but work not done Scheduled an online appointment for an alignment on my 2018 Mustang, clicking the box saying I was going to wait at the dealership while the work was Scheduled an online appointment for an alignment on my 2018 Mustang, clicking the box saying I was going to wait at the dealership while the work was being performed. Arrived on the appointment day and told the service advisor that I'd be in the waiting room. An hour later he came back to say that their alignment machine was "out of calibration". He asked for my phone number, which I guess wasn't listed on the service work order he was writing it on, and said he'd call me when the machine was calibrated. It's been 10 days with no call, so I called them and asked if the machine was ready and they said yes, but I did not make another appointment. So to sum everything up, they let me take a day off work and bring in the car when they couldn't do the work, they let me sit in the waiting room for an hour before sending me home, and finally didn't call me back to say the machine was working again like they said they would. Got on their website's chat this morning and asked for the name of the service manager but was told they don't know who it is, can they have the service manager call me? That was the last straw, I won't be going back. More
2014 paint issues My name is Scott Eckrich, I have purchased many Ford products from Kenny Ross Ford, Chevrolet over the years. Have not had to many issues over the ye My name is Scott Eckrich, I have purchased many Ford products from Kenny Ross Ford, Chevrolet over the years. Have not had to many issues over the years. Most were resolved early and met both mine and Kenny Ross dealers wether Ford or Chevrolet. My issue know is that I own a 2014 Ford expedition that my and my wife bought new. ($60.000.00) I took the truck to the Ford dealership in adamsburg ,pa. The issue was the bubbles under the paint on the hood, hatchback, and over other areas. The paint manager said he could not help without talking to the service manage first. He told me that the warrantee was out by a couple thousand miles, but he would see what Ford might do. Three weeks later, No answer and No phone call from the service manager or the dealership. So, I went back to the dealership and to talk to the service manager. I was told that he would have to check with the Ford company. Waited for about 30 minutes, with still no answer. I then told him how disappointed with him and Ford for the lack of concern with my paint issues. You would think because you spend this kind of money, that they would try to help resolve the problem. Well, another week has gone by and still no answer. Thank you Ford! I will remember this when I want to buy another truck. More
CERTIFIED WARRANTY-NOT USEABLE In August I purchased a 2011 Ford Escape off the showroom floor. The car looked great. The salesman was nice because I have excellent credit. I was In August I purchased a 2011 Ford Escape off the showroom floor. The car looked great. The salesman was nice because I have excellent credit. I was told that a CERTIFIED USED CAR meant that there would not be any problems if something went wrong. I asked and was clearly told everything from bumper to bumper was covered. Because it was a used vehicle, I purchased the top of the line EXTENDED WARRANTY through Ford. About one day out, water was pouring out of my tailpipe. I took the car in and they said there was nothing wrong with it. About two days later, I notice one of my tires was low. I put air in it, only to find it low on air two more days later. I stopped and checked it out. There was a tiny pin hole in the side of the tire. I was told I would need four new tires because the wear would not match and it would ride funny. I decided to get four new tires on a one week old car. I bought them elsewhere for price. At five weeks into the purchase, the car started to sound loud and loss of power. I called KENNY ROSS. They said it was most likely my exhaust and it is not covered under the CERTIFIED USED CAR warranty. I said I have the gold package extended warranty. They said it was not covered under that warranty either. Extremely mad at this point, I just couldn't take it to KENNY ROSS for repairs. I got the muffler replaced elsewhere for about $600. You can see where this is going. I spend $17000 on the truck, $2000 on extended warranty, and was told to hit the road. More
bad service dealership to anyone reading these reviews, & for the record my name is chris ursiny and i am leaving a legit review for this business on me and my family's beha to anyone reading these reviews, & for the record my name is chris ursiny and i am leaving a legit review for this business on me and my family's behalf. please be aware of the fact that there is a very high probably that many if not all of the quote "positive reviews" are given and done by employees or possibly friends of the company and not actual paying clients like i was. i used to have them do the majority of my work for my past/present truck but quit going to them due to multiple service discrepancies in the past: i will list a few of them here for reference: one of the last times i went to kenny ross was with my old blue f250 4x4 2k5 6.0L truck, i had the "infamous bell housing leak" a lot of the 6.0 leakers had, eng. oil xxxxxxin a small amount on the trans bellhousing from the engine leaking somewhere on the bed plate gasket or on top of the engine, i made the usual appointment since i was still under oem ford factory warranty, i brought it in they "checked it out" the only thing the mechanic did was wipe the oil drip up and said there was "no problem" what a joke, they did not want to even find out where the oil leak was originating from! anyone with half a brain would have put in a UV dye in the oil and had me drive the truck around for a week and come back and shine a uv light to follow the oil trail to pinpoint the leak it's not that hard at all. another issue with their service dept was as follows, i had turbo related issues with the 2K5 6l diesel and after i had them fix it, upon my initial under the hood inspection at the dealer's lot before i left the parking lot, i found they broke my dipstick on my truck (while it was there for turbo cleaning service) and i found out about it and called them out on it the next day because apparently the service staff left already and it was only about 5:30pm!! the dealership wanted me to pay i think 70 for a new dipstick, i told them there is no way i was paying for an item they broke while the truck was in their possession. the 2nd issue was during the same incident, i had my change holder on the dashboard center console had about $10.00 in quarters in it when i dropped my 6l diesel truck off, when i picked it up a couple days later i found all the change stolen by some rat in the service dept., someone in the service dept apparently stole all my quarters i used for the turnpike and toll roads, talk about a classy place!! lastly, the only other reason me and my family ever used kenny ross ford was because of the outstanding salesman mr. jim steen whom my family bought 3 new/used vehicles from (ford focus, ford f150, ford f250) after they apparently fired him it was not the same dealing with the company, my personal opinion and advice, steer clear if you value your truck and your wallet, and never ever leave any kind of valuables, or money in your car for safe keeping.

Still can't believe what I was told even when typing it My 2013 Ford Taurus had the steering serviced as well as oil change and state inspection done. When I picked it up there was an immediate and constan My 2013 Ford Taurus had the steering serviced as well as oil change and state inspection done. When I picked it up there was an immediate and constant squealing coming from the car that wasn't there when it was taken in. My wife called and they apologized and said bring it back and they would look at it and got her a rental car. So far everything was handled great. They said it was because there was a brake clip installed improperly on a rear tire and that was causing the problem. I changed the brakes myself before the car was taken into the shop and figured they looked at it and it must have been a mistake on my end but if that stops the squealing then it must have been the correct assessment. This was all done at no additional cost. After picking it up the car is still making a squealing noise but it comes and goes. I called in a week after picking it up to tell them about it. I had to talk to Ron Bettencort and then to Geoff Jordan. They said since the steering was the only thing serviced, unless there was a part that Kenny Ross did work on it would be my responsibility. I stated that my car left there squealing and Kenny Ross had me bring it back and told me it was fixed but still making the noise, so if they felt "responsible" enough to bring it back in the first time for no charge why is it different now. The response I got was that "WE DID IT AS A GOOD FAITH GESTURE BECAUSE YOUR WIFE HAD A NEWBORN BABY..." I had to laugh and asked if that is seriously a reason why that Kenny Ross does things differently for people that have 10 month old babies? He said yes because they were concerned for safety reasons especially when a baby is involved... I guess the second time around they don't care anymore? He offered for me to bring the car back in and they would do a visual inspection to make sure if it wasn't a material defect since it wasn't genuine ford parts (If so then I would be responsible.) I asked if that was the case then wouldn't that of been seen when they were looking for it the first time. He told me that not all technicians understand the chemical composition of the numerous compounds used in brake pads and the effects compression has on them and he would have someone that does. I asked him then if he is saying that not all his technicians know how to diagnose a healthy brake pad, to which he told me yes and I shouldn't put words in his mouth. He kept asking me what I expected from Kenny Ross. I told him I brought my car in and when it left it was squealing. When I called back, Kenny Ross felt there was reason enough to attempt to repair the reason, without charging me. Now when it is doing the same thing, just not as frequently, Kenny Ross is saying unless it was something they did service on then they are not responsible for. Which I think is wrong. They told me they fixed a problem and it isn't fixed. When I told him that obviously bringing it back would be wasting both of our times, just that if anyone asks me I would not recommend Kenny Ross, he told me he doesn't appreciate me threatening him. When I laughed and said I am not threatening I am just telling people me opinion and wouldn't recommend Kenny Ross he told me I was blackmailing him... During this call I didn't know if I should be mad or laugh at the stupidity of what was being said. So basically I would not recommend Kenny Ross for anything unless I guess you have a newborn baby. But if you do, don't go for brakes because not all technicians know what a good brake looks like. Also don't mention you won't recommend Kenny Ross because you will be accused of threatening and blackmail... More

This will be a 2-part review. First - the sales experience. A friend recommended me to Kenny Ross when I was looking to buy a new truck, so I figured I'd check them out. Turns out the price I got o experience. A friend recommended me to Kenny Ross when I was looking to buy a new truck, so I figured I'd check them out. Turns out the price I got on a brand new F150 was amazing. The salesman was slightly pushy and was not very knowledgeable about the functionality of the truck (did not know about differentials, 4x4, the stuff that I care about - I go off road often and wanted to make sure the truck was equipped with the parts I desired). He did know about all the fancy new tech stuff thats in the new Fords, so I will give him that. Other than those two negatives, the overall sales experience was great. Financing was a breeze, I did not get pushed to buy all the fancy insurance items that they try to sell you before closing the deal (I told him up front I didn't want it, and he said okay and that was it). I wanted to take a night to think over the buying of the truck, and instead of leaving it on the lot for anyone else to buy it, the salesman and sales manager decided to bring it in to the showroom and take the window sticker down for a day so I had time to decide without worrying someone else would take it. The salesman even followed me home to get some required information that they needed to file.. this might not be considered professional but I thought it was above and beyond service wise (I live 20 minutes away). Anyways, A+ for overall sales experience. Now to part two - The service experience was HORRIBLE. Today I booked an appointment at 11:30 to get a simple oil change and tire rotation. Something I could have done myself in 20 minutes after work but decided the dealership would be easier and I wouldn't have to deal with the mess. I arrived early, and they took my keys and asked me to wait in the waiting room. I decided to walk around the showroom a little to look at the new cars. I was interested in the new Mustang, and had some questions for a salesman. I asked a man as he walked by, he laughed (like I couldn't afford it) and said he'll get someone. Nobody ever came over. After half an hour of giving them my keys, I went to check on the progress. The truck hadn't been touched yet, and the service rep said he had to apologize they were all on lunch. He said it would be an hour.. I thought okay, I'll come back later today instead of waiting that long for a simple oil change. I was slightly frustrated but I'd get over it. Then another service guy said don't worry about the wait, he'll pull a mechanic in real quick to do the simple service. I felt good when he said that.. so back to the waiting room. 30 minutes later I went to check on progress again. No service reps were at the service desk and no mechanics were in the service area. I was beyond frustrated when I saw my keys hadn't moved from the desk, so I grabbed them, ripped the service tag off, got in my truck and left... Oh and the last part of the day - NOBODY ever called me afterwards. What if the truck had been stolen? Sure, they could have put me not being their and the truck gone together and realized I was mad and left, but still.. After that I will never be back to this Ford dealership for service. And the best part was a few hours later, my friend texted me about where I bought my Ford and if I'd recommend them - wanted to trade in his Wrangler on a new F150. I still haven't responded due to how frustrated I am with today. Maybe the good sales experience will lead me to giving them a thumbs up, but at this point maybe not. More
