The team got me into the truck of my dreams. Didn’t think i could afford it, but sales and finance team worked hard to get me outstanding deal. Also - The Parts, Service, & Customer Relations Team of Pam / Steve / Jessica, I give them all 5 stars. They all stepped up to help Brand New Customer out. Background: · Glove Box that didn’t completely close. Originally I was told that is just the way it is (not the right answer you want to give to new customer). · Bought Ford Plastic Bed Liner – but didn’t meet my satisfaction (open areas on rails for rocks, dirt, gravel to fall down into). Just design flaw. Fixes · Steve / Jessica / Pam all stepped up, called me, & personally walked me through the fixes until they were completely . · Pam – based on her service is the only service rep I will use moving forward. She has great attitude in very tough job. · Jessica – personally called me, got me to the right people, & aided in resolution. She made me feel important & that my concerns mattered. · Steve – listened to my concerns, looked to see how he could fix them, & made it 100% right. Really appreciate his help to meet my needs even though he could have taken easy out. · New Bed Liner is Awesome. New Glove Box is now correct. I love my New Ford Truck. It is the 1st Ford & Truck that I have bought. More

Scary and terrifying I recently brought in my ford explorer 2001 to have the brakes checked.

They diagnosed it after a three hour wait as leaking brake fluid and needing 4new calipers. To repair it, would be over 1000 dollars. They even said it was unsafe to drive. I took it to another mechanic and after one 60 dollar brake booster and 40 dollars labor it brakes perfectly. I always thought a dealer was the standard for auto repair. This dealer is not just greedy but appears to be bordering on fraud. More

Experience with service department. I purchased a year old GMC Terrain from this Bentonville Ford dealership, It provided a 2 year free oil change. The following is the experience I had. I purchased a year old GMC Terrain from this Bentonville Ford dealership, It provided a 2 year free oil change. The following is the experience I had. On my first visit, I pointed out that it required a Dexos certified oil. I still have the oil stains on my garage floor from the oil filter housing that the tech did not secure properly. I then learned that a Dexos certified oil had not been used. The service manager thought Dexos was a brand, and it took the parts house to make him believe it was a certification and not a brand. It was then changed again with certified oil. Trip # 2 required a great effort on my part to get the right oil installed. Trip # 3 they told me that the Motor Craft oil they used was Dexos certified. I researched and found that Motor Craft does not have a Dexos certified oil. Trip # 4 I brought my own oil, a Dexos certified Mobil 1 full synthetic. Two days later I was going to check my oil, and found that the dip stick was missing. I tried to call the service department and the answering machine said to leave to leave a message and they would return the call at THEIR convenience. I then drove to the dealership requesting my dip stick. I was told that it had rolled under the vehicle. It is obvious that since there was no dip stick that the tech had not even checked the oil level after changing it, and of course I was never called about the dip stick. I have one more oil change paid for, but I will never return to their service department for any reason free or not. Needless to say, I will never buy another vehicle. Lawrence Reeves More
Dealer service with a smile As I had my oil changed today on my 2014 Focus Titanium, I noted that there was no cowl covering the engine and wiring. I voiced a concern and they re As I had my oil changed today on my 2014 Focus Titanium, I noted that there was no cowl covering the engine and wiring. I voiced a concern and they researched the model and told me they were ordering a cowl and it would be installed at no charge. I had stopped at a Ford dealer in Joplin, which is much closer to my home, and they had just brushed me off with a "They don't come with a cowl". This is the reason I have purchase two new cars from Landers-McLarty and drive almost fifty miles to enjoy their service. More

Horrible experience Horrible repair experience. John the service advisor was very friendly I will give him that. Their mechanics are completely worthless. If a computer d Horrible repair experience. John the service advisor was very friendly I will give him that. Their mechanics are completely worthless. If a computer doesn't tell them what's wrong they can't figure it out. Day 1 I take it in they call and say it's your cam shaft sync sensor. I told them I know it's not. I have already replaced it along with the cam shaft sync. (They were after market parts so the check engine light was on and has been for couple years.) (Also wasn't doing what it did last time and started just fine.) I told them to check vacuum, fuel and wiring. They said they didn't see anything wrong. Then they say it's the cam shaft sync. Once again I told them it wasn't that to double check wiring and vacuum. They assured me it wasn't any of that. This is where I screwed up and against my better judgement I allowed their ignorant mechanics and John to talk me into letting them replace these parts. Then they call saying your car is ready. Ok be right there to get it. I get there and my car won't start and it's running worse than it did when I took it in. So $600 later problem still isn't fixed of course an as I told them that was not the issue. Tho they say it was still part of the issue due to it was worn. Well of course it was worn the car has 177000 miles on it EVERYTHING in it is worn. I of course was extremely upset an John was very professional while dealing with me. I commend him for that. So they keep the car of course and call me 3 days later. We found the problem. There was a chafed wire (surprise surprise) and the coil pack is bad. Miss fire on 1 and 5 and it will be another $300 to fix this. (So $900 for a $300 repair) since this actually sounded like it could be I aloud them to fix it. Their mechanics just throw parts at a vehicle till it's fixed apparently. An after at least $700+ it's still not fixed completely. What happened to real mechanics that we use to have back in the day. In the end my car will never go back to Landers or possibly any Ford dealership ever. I love this car and till now would have bought another Ford but if their mechanics don't know what they are doing I think it's best I go with a different make. More
I took my Lincoln LS into the dealership to diagnose a noisy rear end. Tech was nice and went for a ride with me to hear the problem. He said it sounds like the differential is going out, I agreed. He noisy rear end. Tech was nice and went for a ride with me to hear the problem. He said it sounds like the differential is going out, I agreed. He put it on the rack and continued diagnosis. He stated that the pinion bearings in the front of the differential were bad. The quote I got was $510 in parts and another $650 in labor. I asked why so high? and was told the differential would have to come out to replace the parts. OK, I said. How much if I bring you a new differential with working parts and you just swap it out? Bill went back to talk to the tech and told me 3-4 hours to swap out the parts. He was sure to state that he could not warranty parts if I was bringing them in. I was OK with that because I knew I could get a used part for around $200, spend another $400-500 on labor and come out ahead. I drove on it for a month or so while I got my part and returned to the dealership for another quote. Again, I talked with Bill in the service department, he recognised me and we talked about what I wanted done. Sure thing he said, it will be a 4 hour job. Add on the fluid change service and we are talking right at $550. Sounded good to me. He scheduled me for the next day. That morning I dropped the car off for repair with the used part in the trunk and again talked to Bill about the work. I showed the tech the part in the trunk and Bill talked to the service manager about the work. The manager confirmed the 4 hour job to swap out the differential. About 2 hours later I got a call from Bill telling me it was going to be an 8 hour job. When I asked why he said they looked it up and that's what the "aldata" site was telling them to charge. I didn't have much of a choice at this time, I needed my car fixed and they had it. I told him to keep track of how much time they actually worked on it and I would pay for it. Bill called me at 8:15 the next morning to tell me it was done. I stopped by at 1:00 to get it and my bill was $1012. I was livid! I asked him how long they worked on it and he showed me the "aldata" printout showing what they were allowed to charge for this work... said it was regulated. "How long did you actually work on it?" I said. "All day yesterday, and till 10... er 9 something today" he replied. LIAR I asked if the "aldata" is available to him at any time. He said it was. I asked why I was told on 3 separate times that it was a 4 hour job when he had the information he needed to make an accurate quote. He did not have an answer. "That's just what it was, 8 hours" he said. I told him straight "If I ever come in here for service again, I want you to pull up that magic "aldata" and make sure your quote is right." I will not be going back to Landers for service. More
