    6/10/22 FORD REPLACED MY BREAKS ON MY CAR. PER THEIR POLICY THE PARTS AND WORK ARE COVERED FOR 3 YEARS OR 36000 MILES. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL DIFFERENT CARS SERVICED THERE AND HAVE ALWAYS USED THEIR SAVINGS COUPONS FOR WARRANTY ON SERVICE WORK PERFORMED THERE. ON 4/27/23 THE SAME CAR NEEDED A WATER PUMP AND THEY TOLD ME THE BREAKS NEEDED REPLACED. I TOLD THEM THEY HAD JUST REPLACED THEM THE PREVIOUS TIME THERE. THE TECH CLEARLY DIDNT KNOW THAT AND SAID HE WOULD HAVE TO CHECK AND SEE AND CALL ME BACK. POINT IS THEY NEEDED DO THEIR PART AND HONOR THEIR WARRANTY FOR THE PARTS OR SERVICE. WHEN REACHED OUT AT A LATER DATE AFTER WOULDNT PASS INSPECTION FOR THE BREAKS I ASKED IF THEY WOULD REIMBURSE FOR THE BREAKS HAVING TO BE REPLACED AND THEM NOT HONORING THEIR WARRANTY, *** ******* SAID THAT SHOULDNT BE A PROBLEM. I THEN EXPALINED THEY HAD PUT A NEW WATER PUMP ON 4/27/23 COSTING THE AMOUNT 624.52. I THEN TALKED WITH HIM ABOUT REIMBURSING THE CHARGE FOR THE WATER PULLEY THEY HAD PUT ON AND HAD TO BE REPLACED 6/6/23. HE SAID HE WOULD SEE AND TO COME IN AND TALK TO HIM. WHEN I GOT THERE HE MENTIONED A BAD CHECK WRITTEN FOR THE SERVICE WORK 624.52 AND SAID HE WOULDNT DO ANYTHING UNTIL PAYMENT HAD BEEN COLLECTED. THE CHECK WAS BAD. THE LADY THAT COLLECTED THE CHECK HAD SENT AN EMAIL STATING THE CHECK WAS WRITTEN INCORRECTLY AND I NEEDED TO GET IT FIXED. SHE GAVE ME UNTIL 530 CLOSE OF THE BUSINESS DAY ON 4/27/23. AT 400PM THAT DAY I WAS PULLED OVER AND ARRESTED FOR THE NON PAYMENT OF THE CAR, FORGERY, AND STEALING. WHILE TALKING TO *** HE TOLD ME THE CHECK WAS RETURNED ON 6/5/23. WHICH IS AFTER THEY HAD MADE CONTACT WITH THE POLICE AND SENT IT TO THE PROSECUTING ATTORNEYS OFFICE FOR COLLECTION. WHICH IS NOT RIGHT FOR BOTH CANT GO FOR COLLECTING THE PAYMENT.

    After being loyal customers and purchasing 5 new vehicles in the past from this dealership. We had a 2018 Ford Escape and received an offer stating that they were paying top dollar for trade ins, what a joke. We went to their dealership trying to trade. We were insulted and talked down to by the sales manger, and the salesman we caught in two out right lies. Not only did they try to low ball us on the trade in value, they were asking $3000 over the sticker price of a 2021 Bronco. We have never been treated as bad as we were with them. Customer service means nothing to them. We went to another dealer in a different town and they treated us great. Great customer service, laid back, no pressure, just open and honest service. We ended up buying a 2021 Bronco from them. They gave us $6000 more for our trade in than Joe Machens. We even got a rebate that the sales man from Machens lied about. It is a shame that you have to go out of town to get an honest deal. They do not care about the customer.

    I am sorry to see this review for our dealership, especially from someone who is a previous customer. I apologize if we insulted you with our numbers or if anyone on our staff was not professional in any way. Current market conditions have made pricing vehicles and evaluating trade ins more challenging than anytime in recent history. We strive to be competitive on every deal, it is clear, in this case we were not. We will use your feedback to help evaluate how we are pricing vehicles as we adjust to a changing market.
