Koons Sterling Ford

Getting to talk to a service adviser always takes forever. I was quoted to get a repair done for $1,250 over what it should have been. Another Ford Dealer quoted me at $590 parts and labor. Koons: forever. I was quoted to get a repair done for $1,250 over what it should have been. Another Ford Dealer quoted me at $590 parts and labor. Koons: $1850. Crazy! Went online, I can buy the parts for $60 (Heater Core and Actuators) and do the work myself 6 hours. (Mechanic should be able to do it in less) even at a billable rate of 110 an hour that's what? $720? I know Ford Dealerships usually jack you for all you have, but these guys quoted me at $510 to get my actuators for the A/C (controls vent, defrost, floor, etc) replaced. (Terrible price by the way, but I said go for it, I want my A/C) They didn't have the parts, so I paid half the cost on Friday to use my car for the weekend, took it back Monday, the parts were in. Then I get a call, "Uhhh, the Heater Core needs replaced, it's blocking the actuators..." Me: "How much?" Service Adviser: "1850" Me: "How is the stationary heater core blocking the actuators?" Service Adviser: "The actuators don't line up" Me: "How is the stationary heater core blocking the actuators?" Service Adviser: "The mechanic could feel something blocking them" Me: "How is this so expensive." Service Adviser: "We have to take out the whole dash" Me: "Isn't the car already apart for the actuators to get installed?" Service Adviser: "No, just the front part, the mechanic reached back and could feel something blocking them." Me: "Put my car back together, I got quoted for $590 for this entire job" Service Adviser: "Wow, you should, that's a great deal, the Heater Core is $600 alone" Me: "Thanks! I will, be there in an hour to pick up my car. And by the way, search for a 2007 Ford Focus Heater Core on the internet, tell me how much it is again." More

I also worked with Mr. John A. Bolling who is not listed! I short... Brougt my car in for service / repairs..routine stuff. While there my car was "key" sctratched for the trunk to the front passengers I short... Brougt my car in for service / repairs..routine stuff. While there my car was "key" sctratched for the trunk to the front passengers side door handle. We both noticed this so they took my car in and had the scratch repaired. I CAN'T TELL IT WAS SCRATCHED! In the mean time I was given a loaner car (FREE) for the duration of the repair. More

I dont see the manager's name on here that i worked with, his name was Abraham youself. But this manager has a thing or two to learn about customer service. I went there yesterday to try to buy a new car. his name was Abraham youself. But this manager has a thing or two to learn about customer service. I went there yesterday to try to buy a new car. We had already been pre-approved for a loan with our credit union. we started the paper work and everything however the car needed to be tittled under one of my parents name since it was through their credit union. so the deal could not be finished. I offered to leave a $500-1000 deposit to take the car home and come back the next day to finish the credit union stuff. I have purchased 3 new cars in the past 8 years and this has never been a problem. The salemam went up to the manager and i was sitting 10ft from the manager so i could see the manager just shake his head and say NO. The salesman comes back to me and tells me they cant accept the deposit and that i would have to come back the next day. I ask what the problem was and that i didnt understand the situation? The salesman tells me he doesn't know why either but that the manager just doesnt want to accept it and just said no. This is a complete lack of customer service. Of course this angered me, because i did not know what was going on. The manager should of came up to me, apologized, and explained the situation as to why he couldnt accept the deposit and let me take the car. I received no information from him and the only thing i ever saw from him was a "bad face" and NO! answer when my salesman went up to ask him. So of course i leave pretty upset as I received no explaination and was just told to come back tomorrow with my mom to finish the credit union paperwork. I give my salesman a call the next day asking him if he knew anything more about what happened yesterday and that i was working on pickup up my mom and get her to come up. He explained the situation to me and i asked him if there was a chance they could throw in a free service for wasting my time and the manager not explaining things to me the day before. He calls me back later and explains that they wouldnt do anything and that the same deal was on the table. I call back about an hour later to tell him I am on my way up to finish the paperwork and he tells me the manager accepted another deposit on the car and the car was no longer available???? I was SHOCKED, I have never seen a business handled this way. This manager knows nothing about customer service and i could not believe this had happened. Even the salesman was shocked and told me he had never seen anything like this before either. I was told the manager was fairly new that he had just come back or something, so im not sure if this is just how this manager handles business or if this is a reflection of how the entire dealership handles business. But whichever is the case, i would say away koons sterling ford in my opinion. More

Ricky is a good sales person, but needs to focus on customer service. Everytime we dealt with him he was either on his cell phone or email looking for the next customer.

I purchased a new F-150 Lariat from the team of John Chinn (sales) and Tom Murray (finance) and was pleased to discover how stress free these two professionals were to work with and the fair estimate gi Chinn (sales) and Tom Murray (finance) and was pleased to discover how stress free these two professionals were to work with and the fair estimate given on my trade-in vehicle. I experienced the results of an auto dealership that values and supports respectful and ethical professionals. The easy style of John Chinn enabled me to relax, learn about the vehicles and to think about which one was best for me. Tom Murray took the time needed to make sure I understood the financial side of the vehicle purchase process and answered all of my questions. More
