Jim Moody and Allen Oltmann both worked with me on the pricing of two new tires, an alignment, and Road Hazard service. Even though I couldn't produce a written quote from another tire company, they work pricing of two new tires, an alignment, and Road Hazard service. Even though I couldn't produce a written quote from another tire company, they worked hard to match/lower the total charges. Great Customer Service. This is why I have chosen to take my F-150 to a dealer instead of other type shops. Thanks Jim and Allen! More

Brought my truck here for the first time in nov of 2023 for a warrantied transmission replacement. It took them 3 months to even touch my truck and i had to drive up there to find out it was still in the s for a warrantied transmission replacement. It took them 3 months to even touch my truck and i had to drive up there to find out it was still in the same parking spot i dropped it off in while they lied to me about what the current status was, saying it was being worked on already. then after having to show up almost once a week, 2.5 months after starting the work, (over 5 months total for a single transmission at this point), they finally finished it and said it was ready. All for it to last me 2 months and now it's right back in the shop with the exact same issue and it's taken them 3.5 months this time and no sign of it being finished soon. they refuse to give me accurate information about when my truck will be ready or about what work they're even doing to it. about 10 months total of it being with them in the past year, and they still can't even do a 12 hour trans swap. would never recommend these guys if they were the last ones in the world.

No respect for customers, no willingness to attempt to communicate vehicle status, no one answers the phone and no one returns calls. Need I say more communicate vehicle status, no one answers the phone and no one returns calls. Need I say more More

This dealership stinks. Had great service while Joe Luciano was there but since Allen Oltmann took over I have no service although I wouldn't know since no one in Service Had great service while Joe Luciano was there but since Allen Oltmann took over I have no service although I wouldn't know since no one in Service Dept knows to use a phone for a few minutes out of there supposedly busy day. My car has been at Palmetto Ford for 4 weeks and had I not got upset and called I would not know what little I do know. I was told that they had talked to my warranty company which at the time they had not and that was the second week. Third week finally talked to someone at warranty company but they say inspector didn't show for another week which is xx because unlike these service advisors I do know how to use a phone and I talked to my warranty company and they told me what is going on. My vehicle is supposedly there for valve cover and a passenger mirror. Warranty company will cover it and reimbursement of at least a week of car rental. If they don't have enough mechanics to cover the work then either hire more mechanics, pay them better so they will want to stay or slow down doing what you cannot catch up with. I really hope they are not holding my car up for the seat belt recall. Now to get in touch with the better business bureau. When my car is released it might go back for new tires since I have lifetime on them and nothing else. The bad thing about all this is I was told by other people not to take it there so I will listen to them next time.!!!!!!!!! More

I want to start off by saying WOW, what an awesome service experience I had this time when I dropped off my 2022 Lincoln Aviator on 30 Aug 2023. Although I had to wait 6 weeks for an appointment, it service experience I had this time when I dropped off my 2022 Lincoln Aviator on 30 Aug 2023. Although I had to wait 6 weeks for an appointment, it was worth it because my service advisor, Bob Pace, was true to his word in securing a loaner vehicle for me. Actually, my entire experience with Bob Pace was absolutely, positively night and day from my last service experience with him on 19 July. He was professional, courteous, friendly, and extremely efficient in getting me in and out of the dealership in a very timely manner. I also appreciated his improvement in communicating with me throughout this process. Another “kudos” to all of the had work and efforts of Jim Moody and the mechanics to get the repairs done much quicker than estimated. Plus, I continue to appreciate Jim Moody’s continued high level of customer service by following up with a phone call, since he was unavailable when I picked up my vehicle on Saturday, to ensure that I understood all of the repairs that had been completed, as well as answer any questions I may have had. This whole experience has restored my faith in my service advisor and Palmetto Lincoln. More
