Sayville Ford had my 2018 Expedition for 2 weeks to fix a check engine light problem. After I picked up my car after I was informed my vehicle was fixed I noticed driving home the check engine light is still More

*******Update , I recieved phone call's from the Service Manager Dimitri Kreatsoulas as well as the VP Cliff Korade. They were both vey apologetic and explained some of the issues they were facing at this time. I fully understandable and I do not blame them or the service department for issues wth staffing and lack of loaner vehicles because of the chip shortage. I explained that the problems stem from a lack of communication, I would have been more than happy to drop off my vehicle IF they had given me the heads up that the wait would be over two hours, I woud have accepted a ride home IF it was offered to me. The systems are in place to communicate with customers , it is time to use them!!! There are many solutions to this problem and I hope that they take my suggestions and implement them, it will make the service exerience much more positive for both the employees and the Customer. They made a very generous offer to come and get my vehicle and perform the service for free and then return the vehicle back to me. I would have accpted but the Truck it currently at my local mechanic having the service completed. I truly appreciate the attempt to address my problem but hope that it leads to an overall change in the communication, automated system, and general way of doing business in the service department. They have asked that I give them one more chance, at this point I am still unsure, time will tell.

It’s nice to know you care more about my feelings, than damaging my car. I’m a big boy, and can handle my emotions. If you’re sorry, you would DO WHAT IS RIGHT!!!

UPDDATE 9/13/2021 Made the mistake of taking them up on the FREE first service!! HORRIBLE!!! Why did I expect something different? After my previous experience with Sayville Ford Service Department, I was hesitant to give them another try but the Service Manager and General manager both called and explained the issue and asked if I would give them another chance. Today I TRIED and AGAIN THEY FAILED!!! My 2020 Ford Raptor was due for its 5000-mile service, basically an oil change and a tire rotation. My vehicle only has 4100 miles, but it is a year of driving so time for the oil change. The service manager had generously offered to include this service for free after our last “issue” and asked me to give them a second chance because they were just having an off day. I decided it was fair to give them another try so I used there process so that I could write an honest review of my experience, positive or negative. The experience was HORRIBLE AGAIN!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND SAYVILLE FORD, LOTS OF LIP SERVICE NO FOLLOW THROUGH!!!!!!! I made my service appointment the middle of last week on their website picking a time and day that was available. I chose Monday 9/13/2021 at 10:45 believing that it would be after the morning rush and before the lunch breaks. This would also give me he ability to make a fair assessment of the service department. I received three text messages from an automated system, “Thank you for scheduling”, “Appt Confirmation” and “Appt Reminder”. I felt that the communication was good and was the right amount. This morning I showed up 5 minutes early for my appointment and there were no cars waiting so I drove directly into the service bay. I was greeted and asked to wait for a service advisor, it was a reasonable wait for the advisor. She took some information about the vehicle and asked me to follow her into the office. I made sure to wear a mask and to be early for my appointment so that I would not cause any problems with my appointment. I clearly wrote and selected on the automated appointment that I would be waiting for my vehicle. After discussing the service and specifying that I wanted synthetic oil for my vehicle (she did not know if they used Mobil One), the advisor finished the paperwork and then advised me it would be OVER TWO HOURS wait, to change the oil!! I told them to bring back vehicle that it was unacceptable. Then the advisor stated making up stories about COVID, which was very disconcerting. TODAY MAGICALLY COVID IS CAUSING TWO HOUR OIL CHANGES!!!! Another 45 minutes of my life wasted trying to get something SIMPLE completed at this dealership. Here are the Major issues I have with the dealership and this visit: 1) YOU HAVE A WEBSITE WHERE I MADE THE APPOINTMENT, IT COULD EASILY SAY “WAIT TIMES EXCEED TWO HOURS” 2) THAT SAME WEBSITE BLOCKS OUT APPOINTMENT TIMES, IF YOU ARE SHORT STAFFED BLOCK OUT HALF OF THE TIMES SO THAT YOU CAN FINISH WORK IN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AND SATISFY YOUR CUSTOMERS. 3) YOU CAN SEND ME 3 TEXT MESSAGES ABOUT MY APPOINTMENT BUT YOU CAN’T SEND ONE “WARNING WAIT TIMES EXCEED TWO HOURS” 4) AS SOON AS A CUSTOMER PULLS IN YOU ASK, “WILL YOU BE WAITING?” THEN YOU CAN ADVISE THEM IT WILL BE IN EXCESS OF TWO HOURS.” 5) YOU HAVE MY PHONE NUBER, YOU KNOW I AM WAITING FOR MY VEHICLE……..CALL ME AND TELL ME “ITS OVER A TWO-HOUR WAIT, YOU MAY WANT TO DROP IT OFF OR RESCHEDULE” The complete lack of communication is the same issue that existed the last time I visited the Sayville Ford Service Department. Communication, Honesty and Clarity with your customers is the key and they FAIL EVERY TIME!! I cannot relate how disappointed I am in the Dealership as a whole, they asked me to give them a second chance and I tried, I really wanted it to be a great experience so that I could give them a great review. Something is terrible wrong with the management of this facility; the managers need to be on top of these issues and make changes. Give specific direction to your service employees to COMMUNICATE, let people know ahead of time, don’t make it a surprise! I recommend you take your business elsewhere. A Dealer or independent where they value your time and understand how to communicate!
