I had visited 7 Ford dealerships before coming to Key Scales. I arrived at dark just before closing. Saw a truck I liked and went inside. This is when I finally got a break and met Breanna. We went outsi More

Michelle, On Thursday August 24th, after picking up Luke's vehicle, the General Manager and Dealer called you and you kept her on the phone for almost two hours cursing and complaining about your experience at our dealership. Michelle, you were screaming at the General Manager while you constantly used profanity at her. The General Manager told you she would follow up with you on Friday on all of your questions and concerns. The General Manager listened to your complaints and concerns for almost 2 hours, that surely is a sign of someone who cares for their customers. We were committed to get resolutions to any of the questions and concerns. The General manager emailed you by 10AM on Friday addressing all of your questions & concerns. We have audio and video of the interactions between you and our staff. There was no profanity used towards you by any team member at Key Scales Ford. You acted rudely towards the staff members. Brian tried multiple times to explain to you that the supplement included all the original parts and that you don't add the parts together from each estimate. You kept contracting him and acting like you were correct. You were incorrect. Yes, Some of our team members did become defensive towards you when you were acting so rudely towards them and refused to listen to what they were trying to tell you. We addressed the staff accordingly. It was unfortunate that the Service Manager was not available to intervene at that time. No one tried to force you and/or Luke to do anything. We listened to the phone call where Brian told you the recommended services you needed, you declined, he said ok. Brian was nothing short of kind and soft spoken. A complete different version you told the general manager how rude he was towards you both. In trying to address your concerns and questions, we found out you were lying. You lied about the adjuster telling you to question the estimate. You told us we were trying to scam the insurance company and he needed you to question the RO VS estimate. The adjuster had ZERO questions regarding the estimate and said he had never spoken to you and for me to tell you to call him with any questions you may have. He completely agreed 100% with the repairs and estimate. You lied about the phone call between you and Brian. You lied about profanity being used. We have audio and video of your interaction with the team. Here is the recap email i sent you , which in all the emails that were sent to you on Friday, NEITHER you OR LUKE NEVER RESPONDED. Here is a recap of all items we spoke about last night. 1. Full copy of the repair order- emailed to you both at the XXXX gmail account. 2. Full reconciliation of the repair order to the final estimate from Farmers- done and emailed to you both at XXX@gmail.com and Scott @ Farmers. a. Scott at Farmers called me and said he had no questions on the repairs or antifreeze and was not sure why I was sending him the reconciliation. He said to call him if you have any questions. 3. Fuel- explanation sent in an email to you both at XXXX@gmail.com 4. Rotors/Brakes- explanation sent in an email to you both at XXXX@gmail.com 5. Ford Pass- emailed you both Ford pass information on how to earn and redeem points, emailed to XXXX@gmail.com 6. Phone call with Brian- still waiting on you to confirm that this was the call you were referring to last night, where you mentioned Brian had inappropriately spoken to you.? 7. Waiting on you to send me the recording that you mentioned you had recorded yesterday with your interactions with the staff. I need this to discipline the employee(s) properly. Having them cursing at you is COMPLETELY inappropriate and I will address them accordingly, but I really need this because our video/audio does not show them using profanity towards you. All the items have been addressed on our end, I will wait to hear back from you both on items 6 & 7. We HEARD Nothing back from you!!! Then today we receive a 1 star review. As far as a survey, Brian was so frustrated with you he responded to you go ahead and bomb the survey against me. He just accepted the poor survey he would get from you. We never said we were going to send the survey to someone in the dealership to give us a favorable review. Those days of trying to scam surveys, are long gone, and we have NEVER ever done anything to avoid a bad survey. This review is full of deceitful lies by the wife of the customer. We worked with Farmers Insurance on behalf of Luke and never once dealt with Michelle until pickup. The adjuster never dealt with her either.

There would be no reason to fabricate any lies the time it took to generate. This complaint was done for a reason, and that reason is your dealership is dishonest, you are dishonest there was no cursing at you. Your service rep did, in fact, try to force us to get work done on the vehicle that wasn’t even necessary to this day we have not been providing any paperwork paperwork that I should’ve been able to leave with the day. The truck was picked up yet you insist you guys did nothing wrong. Your service rep was rude and thought he could bully my husband a tactic I’ve seen many departments due to the elderly and people that do not speak English And shame on you guys for allowing this to happen as for you, the general manager and the owner at no time did you guys offer any reason why we could not leave with the documentation that you now say we were entitled to yet it had to become an argument to get it The fact that this bad asked for $50 cash to be paid back to him yet we picked up the vehicle on empty and the laundry list of other complaints we have regarding our experience should be enough but I will leave the public to read this if they want a problem if they want to be bullied if they want to be insulted and if they want to have someone force them to do something, then they most certainly should go to your dealership, but anyway, with common sense that would want to avoid it should avoid your dealership as well

Ma'am, with all due respect, just so you know, we have audio and video and our calls are recorded. I can send you a copy of your vulgarness if you would like. Audio & Video DOES NOT lie. Humans do.

I am happy to show any future or current customer, the video and audio of our interactions with you.

Are you also calling your adjuster a liar and dishonest. He told me you were lying.

c2cqhs responded

I think the fact that you are constantly willing to bicker back-and-forth over what I consider to be a horrible experience speaks volumes no real GM or owner of any dealership we go back-and-forth like this publicly I think you need to read other reviews regarding your dealership and experience with your dealership, and both sales and service and I think you need to work on things internally and spend less time responding to me

Key Scales Ford responded

When you are trying to publicly hurt ( your words to the GM) a hard working dedicated employee and the company with no validity to your claims, The company has a right to protect its staff and state its position. If we had done all the things you state we did, the staff member would have been severely reprimand and a public apology would have been given to you. We watched the interactions again on video to ensure we were not incorrect, NOT once DID He curse at you EVER in all your interaction with him. We will let all the great reviews stand for themselves. We fall short and when we do, we are humble to apologize and make it right with the customer. We pride ourselves in honesty and integrity and treating our staff and customers like our family. Treat others the way you want to be treated. We do not tolerate abusive customers who curse and treat our staff inappropriately. There is no need for this behavior in today's culture.

All anybody has to do is read your Google reviews and they will see my complaints are the same things that others are complaining about and making sure to leave reviews regarding their experience …. there are so many untruths that you tell but the bottom line is I did not leave my itemized receipt like I requested, and was entitled to the bottom of the page said one of three and I never got pages two or three it was obviously some thing to hide why you would not give us paperwork regarding what was done, and I question whether or not the repair was done correctly . And the fact that your employee so that they put $50 gas in the truck and we were on empty with 6 miles to go before running out for gas. This was another lie and your employee telling me he doesn’t have to discuss xxxx with me because the truck wasn’t in my name and that is the furthest thing from the truth because the truck is in my name and I should’ve been given an explanation, so you see if anybody looks at your Google reviews there are many many complaints regarding both you and your service department and you might want to take the time to read your responses because everything you do is deny responsibility on everything and there’s a pattern of it
