I was in the market for a new 2023 Ford Bronco Sport. Either a Heritage Limited or a fully loaded Badlands. I saw both a Badlands and Heritage Limited on Encinitas Ford's website so I called and inquir Either a Heritage Limited or a fully loaded Badlands. I saw both a Badlands and Heritage Limited on Encinitas Ford's website so I called and inquired about them. The salesperson showed me the Heritage Limited which was advertised on their website at full sticker. When I told him I would buy it - the price was suddenly full sticker plus $10k for market value adjustment which is another term for gouging your customer in my opinion. The next day the salesperson texted me and said he had a fully loaded Area 51 color Badlands with a moonroof that just arrived. I told him I would take it at full sticker. He texted me that it was mine. He then had me text my driver's license and insurance card info so he could start the paperwork. He set an appointment for 4:00pm for me to come in to sign the paperwork and pick up my new car. Later in the day he texted me that that car was no longer available but he had something else in mind for me. At that point I realized that this type of shell game / bait and switch sales tactics seemed to be designed to try and get me emotionally involved in the sales process so I would either pay more than sticker or settle for something less than what I wanted. A few days later I was able to buy the same Heritage Limited Bronco from Aaron Ford in Poway at $2k under sticker or $12k less than what Encinitas Ford wanted to charge. More

I could not be more disappointed in their service department, from top to bottom. 10 days to complete work and 3 days to diagnose a check engine light. Horrible follow-through. Check engine light sti department, from top to bottom. 10 days to complete work and 3 days to diagnose a check engine light. Horrible follow-through. Check engine light still comes on! $100 deductible turned into a $900 + $100 because of delays in service. Service team provided poor photos to Ford Warranty which meant that Ford had to manually inspect the vehicle. Took 4 extra days and only got approved when I showed up upset in the dealership. I bought the extended warranty and learned to never do that again and to never choose Encinitas Ford again. Had to call to get updates because they wouldn’t call. More

Buying a car during the pandemic is certainly a unique experience and Allen Kessler went above and beyond to make it safe and easy. When we arrived Allen showed us the car we were interested in and walke experience and Allen Kessler went above and beyond to make it safe and easy. When we arrived Allen showed us the car we were interested in and walked us through the features. Within 10 minutes we were on the road for a solo test drive. We talked numbers and arrived at what we all felt was a fair deal, but left to take some time to think it over. No pressure and no expectations. A few hours later he followed-up with a check-in phone call and we decided to purchase the vehicle. When we arrived back at Encinitas Ford the car was washed, filled with gas and was waiting for us up front. Allen helped set-up financing with Doug in under 45 minutes and we were on the road shortly after with our new Mustang. We were impressed by the precautions and procedures taken by Encinitas Ford to ensure the safety of all guests and we truly appreciated how helpful, friendly and considerate the staff was during our entire car buying experience. Big thank you to Allen and the Encinitas Ford team! More
