I had a great experience with Koons Ford. I got the truck I wanted for a great price. Everyone was friendly and willing to work with you. I got a free bbq dinner there one night too.

Before I moved to Annapolis, I always had service on my vehicle performed by the local dealership in their in-house oil/tire center and what not; thus, in Annapolis, I naturally sought out Koons to perform vehicle performed by the local dealership in their in-house oil/tire center and what not; thus, in Annapolis, I naturally sought out Koons to perform similar work on my car. I was not impressed. Here's the list of things I noticed. - There were a lot of workers standing around and chatting inside of the drop-off area. Now, they may have been on break, but none of them seemed to care that I had driven my car in. - The head service guy there that day came off as a "used car salesman" type, trying to rush me through things. He took my keys and sent me to the waiting area. - The waiting area was very disappointing. Compared to other dealers, this one was a dump. - The service took three times longer than what the head service guy told me it would. - After the oil change and tire rotation was done, the head guy came to me with a list of things that his mechanics noted needed attention. I am not conversant on car parts and equipment, and he tried to get me to have most of these taken care of in this visit without explaining what any of it was. I denied it and had a mechanic friend and a separate service center look at my car, both of whom said that Koons was trying to get me to schedule some unnecessary work. - My car is white, and there were smudges from dirty workers' hands all over the front of my car when completed. My impression of Koons Ford is that it is the service center you hear the commercials criticizing where they find/make things to work on with your vehicle just to make a quick buck. I will not return. More
Noticed that there was a 2002 Cadillac Deville DHS so called the dealer and inquired about the availability and the price of the car. I was informed by Bruce, one of the sales rep that after checkingwit called the dealer and inquired about the availability and the price of the car. I was informed by Bruce, one of the sales rep that after checkingwith the manager was priced at $6900(which for this vehicle is almost $1700 more than the KBB value for this vehicle in excellent condition). Anyway, I told Bruce that I would either try and come pass the lot on my lunch break or after work. When I arrived at the dealership I asked for Bruce, reminded him that I had called earlier about the Caddillac and that I was there to look at the vehicle. He told me to wait and in the process walked over to I guess was one of the other reps/manager's office and inquired about the car. He (Bruce) came back to me and said that the manager was going to take the car home and see if his wife wanted the car and if so he was going to buy it. This was really irritating because: 1. You could have provided me this information when I first called, thereby eliminating an unnecessary trip and complete waste of my time. 2. Being a customer service rep, and seeing that there was a potential buying customer onsite, I have would given the customer the opportunity to purchase the car first. (Since I work in Services, my customers always come first. I WOULD NOT have told a potential customer that an employee/employee's wife IS THINKING about buying the vehicle. I thought this was very unprofessional. You won't have to worry about me purchasing a vehicle from this dealership. More
I'll give them a 4 rating overall because everything turned out to be relatively easy. I made sure that the salesperson understood immediately that I knew what I was doing and was not interested in "pl turned out to be relatively easy. I made sure that the salesperson understood immediately that I knew what I was doing and was not interested in "playing the game." I've done my homework so show me the car, quote me a price and let's see if we can make a deal. They tried a few of the usual tricks, like the four square deal presentation...stop them immediately and make them present it to you the way you want to see it. The price we agree was fair; the financing process was easy, there were no hidden or deceptive charges, and the car was ready when promised. Our sales person was very pleasant and respectful. More
Car was brought in on August 2nd with a locked up engine. I was told the car needed a new engine. Today is November 18th, and the car is still not done. Phone calls are not returned. When I do get someone on I was told the car needed a new engine. Today is November 18th, and the car is still not done. Phone calls are not returned. When I do get someone on the line (they screen calls with Caller ID), I am told outright lies. The first round of delays was not entirely Koons' fault. The warranty company dragged its feet getting the car diagnosed. After that was done (about 3 weeks), I had to wait 3 more weeks for a new engine to arrive. Once the new engine came in, it took about 12 days to get the old engine out. When I asked, "Why didn't you guys pull the old engine out while waiting for the new one to arrive?" I was told that's not how it's done. So, it took about 2 weeks to get the new engine in. After that, they determined that the engine was making a funny noise. "One of our service guys will take it for a road test," I was told. That took 2 days. "It's still making a noise, I'll take it for a test personally." Their "road test" involves taking my car home for the night. So each "test" takes a day or two. The first guy "didn't live far enough away" for an accurate test. The second guy did. When I asked if there was any way to conduct these test other than taking my car home for the night, I was told "No, that was just wasn't possible." So, they decided that the brand new engine was faulty. A new one needed to be ordered. Three more weeks. We're about 2 and a half months into this ordeal. A new engine arrives. I'm told it will take a week and a half to install. Meanwhile, I watched my neighbor drop a new engine in his truck over a weekend with an engine lift, hand tools and a six pack. A week and a half goes by. Still no car. My calls are avoided. When I ask for someone in particular, they are magically "in a meeting about my car at this very minute...they'll call you RIGHT BACK." They don't. Because this ordeal was dragging so far along, I asked about the possibility of a loaner car. It took 24 days to get a response to that question. The response was "no" ... but why 3 weeks for an answer, despite that I called to ask about it several times per week? Not sure. I was given many different answers, not sure which one is has the lessor amount of lies. They tell me the car will be ready this Saturday... Or maybe Monday, just shy of my 4-month anniversary with Koons Ford of Annapolis. "Why didn't it take a week or so to put the new engine in?" I asked. "Well, that part of our service department was really busy this month. He's but in 3 or 4 new engines this week." "WAITAMINUTE!" I replied. "You put in 3 or 4 engines ahead of mine ... a car that has been in your shop for nearly FOUR MONTHS?!?!" "Well, they did those cuz they had all the parts...." was the weak answer. "What parts were missing from my repair job?" "..." That's the kind of stalling lies I've been getting. The car broke down at the end of July.... It is Thanksgiving next week. Think about that before you try the service department at Koons Ford of Annapolis on Riva Road. More
I took my 2005 Mustang GT to have body work done at Koons Ford's Body shop. My car has been worked on 4 times now and it still has not been done right. First there was a hazy residue underneath the clear coa Ford's Body shop. My car has been worked on 4 times now and it still has not been done right. First there was a hazy residue underneath the clear coat. Very noticeable throughout the whole side that was worked on. Bob the manager said he never saw this before in his 30 plus years. They tried to cheat and buff it out with no avail. So, they tried to fix it by removing the clear coat and re-clear coating it. It looked ok when I first picked it up after they re-clear coated it. Two days later somebody or something chipped a small piece of paint off on the driver's side (this side that was worked on) door in a parking lot. While looking at the damage my wife and I noticed that a large paint chip came off the bottom corner of the door all the way down to the primer. Looking a the chipped area I noticed the paint had a rough texture running the bottom of the door approximately one inch high. This was only on the door not the fender, quarter panel or rocker panel. I took the car back and Bob the shop manager could not give me an explanation again. He put touch up paint on the chipped area and said come back in a few weeks. I came back after a few weeks. I had to wait for Bob to finish a conversation about politics for 10 minutes or so before he cam and saw me. He said he was going to sand the whole door down and re-paint it. After the car was done, I picked it up and noticed that they painted over the small pain chip from the parking lot. I found that disrespectful after they have messed up several time now. He did say he was going to sand the whole door down which would of course include the small paint chip. But, technically they are not liable to sand that chip out. So, I let it go. Looking over the car later at my house I noticed small bumps on the door about the size of a small grain of sand. There was only a few so I did not care. However, a few weeks later these small bumps/bubbles showed up all over the door. So, I spoke with the Manager Joe Koons about my car and got it in to be worked on again. Hoping that Bob's manager Joe would motivate him to do the job right. But, no luck with this. The door has sanding marks in it. Smudge marks in it, pin holes, some bumps/bubbles, and you can see where the bumps where removed and not sanded out smooth. Bob said he had Dupont out and that the bumps/bubbles where from wax being applied prematurely. He claims that the wax sealed the paint. For one thing I did not wax the side that was worked on and a clear coat seals the paint anyways. Now, I have to fight them for a refund because the clearly cant do the job right. More

Beata Brodal Johnson is the bomb. I had my car stolen on 6/18 and totalled 6/21. I needed a car and was interested in either a Fiesta or Focus. I contacted Beata on or about Saturday, 6/25th. I decided o 6/18 and totalled 6/21. I needed a car and was interested in either a Fiesta or Focus. I contacted Beata on or about Saturday, 6/25th. I decided on a Focus but really wanted a 2012 Focus Se Hatchback Glass Crystal Metallic color (a color not easy to find) and I needed to keep the price down. I met Beata today 7/5 and I will pick up my 2012 Focus SE Hatchback Glass Crystal and my monthly payment (which includes maintenance and extended warranty) on Friday. What a wonderful experience and I know it was to the hard work of Beata and Koons Ford Annapolis that my life is a little brighter because Beata cared, understood and made it happen. Thank you, Beata--all my friends, co-workers, family members and neighbors will know -- check out KoonsFord Annapolis and ask for Beata. More

I traded in my 2005 Jeep Liberty for a 2008 Ford Escape in April 2011. My boyfriend who helped me with the purchase called the dealership prior to our drive up to Annapolis to see if the vehicle we had se in April 2011. My boyfriend who helped me with the purchase called the dealership prior to our drive up to Annapolis to see if the vehicle we had seen online was still available (you never know!) and luckily it was. Beata answered the phone call and was very informative about the vehicle, we let her know we would be there by 12pm. When we got to the dealership, a salesman approached us and greeted us right away. We asked for Beata since she had previously helped us over the phone and the gentleman let her know we had arrived. Even though she was already working with a customer, she came out, greeted us and said she would be right with us. We probably waited about 10 minutes before Beata came back with the key for the vehicle we were interested in and apologized for the delay. She set us up with the vehicle for a test drive while she finished up with the customer she was with. After driving the Escape for about 10 minutes, I LOVED IT! I was really looking forward to making the purchase but was worried about the financials. Beata has just finished up with the previous customer when we got back, so we were able to sit down and talk about the purchase. Beata was very helpful during the negoiations for the purchase, I was able to spend less than I anticipated spending and she even had the finance department look for a better loan than the one I had already qualified for. During the whole process of this vehicle purchase, everyone I encountered at the dealership was extremely and helpful. Beata and Heather in the finance department were amazing during the process. I will definitely keep this dealership in mind for any future purchases. More
