Columbia Ford/Kia is an easy and convenient location to get to. It is a relaxing facility and has a cafe if you are hungry. The customer service is great as well. More

Bad experience wasted to purchase a 74k truck no transparency with the dealer or finance dept. No helpful did not keep appointments on time, what a mess. I’ve never had such a bad experience. More

Columbia Ford Kia responded

Good afternoon, I want to sincerely apologize for the experience you had while shopping for your truck. Purchasing a vehicle should be an exciting and transparent process, and it’s clear we did not deliver on that promise for you. You mentioned issues with transparency, finance communication, and timeliness of appointments — all of which are fundamental to how we strive to do business. Unfortunately, in this case, we fell short, and I regret the frustration this caused. On behalf of Columbia Ford, I want to assure you this is not the standard we hold ourselves to. We are addressing your concerns internally so that every customer is treated with the professionalism, clarity, and respect they deserve. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at the dealership so I can personally work with you to restore your confidence in us. Sincerely, Eric Gates General Manager
