My calls are never returned, once while I was getting my car fixed I was hit on by an employee. I get calls from them at my work number, which they told me they googled. Very disappointed with my experience, out lots of money. More

In addition, when i got it back, the windshield cracked due to leaving the windows shut in summer heat, the inside stunk, and to boot, it needs an alignment for the new tires. More
Bart Rice employs bait and switch tactics Albuquerque’s Rich Ford Sales Manager, “Bart Rice”, deliberately misrepresents his contractual product offering, by his “bait and switch tactics” wher Albuquerque’s Rich Ford Sales Manager, “Bart Rice”, deliberately misrepresents his contractual product offering, by his “bait and switch tactics” where my $500 deposit and 12/15/15 contract ordering a 2016 Ford-C-max Plug-in was intentionally delayed without notifying the client until after the fact and revised delivery date after my lease ended, where a more expensive, less desireable substitution car and leasing terms were forced on me negating our contract, and other specific stretchings of standard business ethics by “Bart Rice.” More

Takes a couple of times to get it right We purchased a new 2013 Ford Escape from Rich Ford and have had a few mechanical issues. Last year, when the vehicle was a little over 2 years old - i We purchased a new 2013 Ford Escape from Rich Ford and have had a few mechanical issues. Last year, when the vehicle was a little over 2 years old - it began leaking oil. We took it in for repairs because it was covered by the warranty but after keeping our vehicle for a week they thought they fixed the problem but did not. So when the car started leaking oil again, we took it back for repairs - which they then kept our car for 1 month. They very nearly had to replace the entire engine to fix the leak. But they did fix it. However, here we are 6 months after that and I recently had to take my car in again because the check engine light came on. This time it took them 2 times (keeping my car for 4 days each time) to properly diagnose the problem and eventually fix it. (Replace the EGR Valve). By the way, our warranty just expired 3 weeks ago and the car only has 23,000 miles on it. So we had to pay for the diagnosis and repairs out of pocket this last time. To be honest the repair work was pretty sloppy this time and my car was returned to me with a big crack in the windshield that wasn't there when I dropped it off. The mechanics did not put all of the parts back together after the install, there were several plastic rivets missing, they spilled anti-freeze all over the left side of my car (you could visibly see it dripping down the front of my bumper). I was especially upset when I picked up my car, when I was paying, no one mentioned it to me that they cracked the windshield. No one apologized or made any notes on the repair bill. I had to call the dealership multiple times until I eventually got a hold of a manager (Julian Armijo), because my service advisor (Christine Doane) did not return my calls. Julian requested that I bring in my car so he could photograph the damage, which he then wanted to compare to video footage of what my car looked like when i brought it in, which is fair. I did have to follow up with him a couple of days later though. When I called again he said he couldn't see the crack in the windshield prior to the service being done and told me "we will just go ahead and take care of the windshield for you." He also said that he would have someone call and schedule a time for the repair, but after a week later, no one called to schedule the repairs for my windshield. I called again but this time left a message for another manager Bart White. Bart returned my call right away. Had me bring in my car, same-day and scheduled the repairs right away. Bart explained to me that over the past week they lost their primary windshield vendor and that it has taken them a while to find a new vendor. He said that Julian did follow through with his word and had approved my vehicle for the windshield replacement at no cost in their computer system, however he did not call to schedule the replacement yet because he got called out of town on business. We have had a few hiccups with the service department but, we have found that if you follow up with them they do make it right for you. My only other observation is that they do a high volume of repairs and sometimes the wait time to have the repairs completed is much longer than if you schedule an appointment with a smaller repair shop. It can take up to a week just to have your car diagnosed here, and that is a long time to be without your vehicle - if it is your primary source of travel. I would recommend you use this dealership if your are covered by your warranty - they will work with you until they fix the repairs. However, now that the our warranty is expired I may shop around for repair cost comparison before we come back here. More
dealership/friends I just wanted to thank you for the attention you have always shown me and my family. I have dealt with Wayne Cook for over twenty years and from the f I just wanted to thank you for the attention you have always shown me and my family. I have dealt with Wayne Cook for over twenty years and from the first F150 we purchased from him to the latest F150 he has always taken our needs very seriously when looking for the perfect vehicle. Wayne is a true gentleman and a man of his word. Rich Ford has always been the dealership of choice for us and we will shop there as long as we are able to and will recommend friends and family whenever possible. The Service and parts department are both top notch with extremely knowledgeable employees. The finance dept. saved us quite a bit of money by finding us cheaper financing compared to our pre arranged financing through our credit union.Thank you Rich Ford and Wayne for always making all our new car purchases stress free and enjoyable. Your friends always. More
Went in ore approved and left with a lower interest rate We had purchased a truck from our then new salesman and someone was nice enough to have stolen it just a few months after we took her home. After clea We had purchased a truck from our then new salesman and someone was nice enough to have stolen it just a few months after we took her home. After clearing up that unfortunate incident we followed our salesman to Rich Ford instead the dealership we went to in the first place. "Doc" had already known what we liked and found the truck we purchased within 3 minutes of hearing our story. He set us up with a xxxx fine finance officer and got us from our pre approved loan from our bank with an 8.99 interest rate and was able to drop it to 5.74 at the same bank. If any if our friends and family bought cars from big dealerships like Rich Ford we would send them to Patrick "Doc" Burk. Thank you for all your help. More
Best Ford Dealer in NM!! I would like to take a few minutes to discuss the dealership.

They are top notch in all aspects, and the service department is the best Ford Service Department around! They will go above and beyond what should be expected. I left another dealership for this one and I am willing to drive from Rio Rancho to have my Ford Flex serviced! I did not even purchase my Flex from this dealer, but that does not bother them - they treat me with the "red carpet treatment!" I briefly worked with the sales department and they were courteous and helpful without being pushy. I highly recommend this dealership!! More

First it was the sal When I decided to buy from Don Chalmers instead, they would not leave me alone. I had to become really firm not to call me again. First it was the salesperson, then it was the next person up the chain. I must have received at least 6-8 calls. It just didn't stop! Then the emails started. I unsubscribed 3-4 times, yet the emails persist. I finally had to block them. They would email me at work and my personal email. No matter how many times I would unsubscribe and change my preferences, every month it was just the same! I would not go back. More
