Santa Monica Ford Lincoln

No Match! I received a True Car certificate for this dealership for a new Ford Edge; I was contacted by one of their internet salesmen and was issued 2 quotes w I received a True Car certificate for this dealership for a new Ford Edge; I was contacted by one of their internet salesmen and was issued 2 quotes which neither quotes included the True Car pricing. The dealers quotes only included the MSRP minus the rebates. My issue is, they are not actually using the True Car price but, hiding behind the rebates off the MSRP. If you are NOT truly participating in the True Car pricing program, please don't waste the consumers time. More

Bad customer service and also unprofessional I took my 2015 Lincoln MKZ in because of a recall and also for the rear camera not working. Asked for a loaner.

I was told that I am not entitled to one, which is not the case according to the Lease documents. I was told that most likely the camera does not work because I pair my I-phone 6 with the car. I left the car there and ask for a ride back to my house. I was told by the driver after giving him my address that according to Co policy the limit is 5 miles. I told him that I am not sure about the exact distance, but I think it is around 5 miles. We got on the highway and after less that 10 minutes he told me that he thinks it is over the 5 miles and he will have to drop me off. I asked him to exist the freeway which he did and I had to continue to walk from the exit back to my home. I was very upset. When I came back they said it is the phone that caused the problem and I should get in touch with Apple. There system is based on Microsoft. He said that they re-set the system and it is working fine now. When I got back to my house and tried to back into my Garage the camera did not work again. I called Lincoln "In Vehicle Technology" Tec. support and I was told by them that this not true. The phone has nothing to do with the camera and that the dealership did not follow protocol. They should have call Tec Hot Line before they reset the system. I leased this car with safety in mind and having the rear camera was one of my main consideration. Don't buy a car from them and never take it for service there. You will be disappointed and upset like me. More

Over priced and as a long time customer felt duped. Over priced,will suggest premature unnecessary repairs. Also had a 3 pm appointment for smog check and Daniel acted like it was a huge inconvenience. Over priced,will suggest premature unnecessary repairs.

A fish rots from the head down Santa Monica Ford (SMF) is owned and operated by a guy named Ron Davis. Personal experience: Our 6-month old Ford Fiesta SFE, which we had leased Santa Monica Ford (SMF) is owned and operated by a guy named Ron Davis. Personal experience: Our 6-month old Ford Fiesta SFE, which we had leased from a different dealer had to be towed to SMF because the engine was overheating. The issue was diagnosed as a defective part. We were told it would take 3-business days to get the part in. The part came in a day earlier than estimated and we were informed the car was ready. When I went in to pick up the car, I informed Mario Rea, the service rep that distance driven showing on the car was in kilometers and not miles - this had caused problems with my previous car when I had to trade it in. In indicating this, I apparently crossed a line with Mario, which I shouldn't have. Realizing Mario was happy to go to the car and get the distance in miles, I offered to go for him. I was told that I should and I did. When I returned, I was made to sit and wait like a child in the principal's office, until Mario decided that he had to finally deal with me since no one else was available. After the change was made, I went over to the cashier to check out. I asked if I could speak to the Services Manager. I was told the Jenna, the cashier that he had left for the day - later it turned out to be incorrect. She asked me why I need to speak to the service manager and if she could help me since she was also the "Customer Relationship Manager". I started explain my frustration with Mario and how he had treated me poorly. As I was speaking to Jenna, Mario started screaming at me across the room and walked over to the area I was standing in a threatening manner. As I told him to back off and that I wasn't speaking to him, he told Jenna to "call the police". So Jenna picked up the phone and started dialing - I assumed the police. Within minutes the Service Manager who had "gone home" came over to the services department. As the manager walked in, Mario said, "xxxx with this. I'm getting the xxxx out of here". At this point, I simply asked for the Service Manager's business card and left. The next morning, I went back to the dealership and asked to see the General Manager. Well, lets just say, my experience with the GM/Owner, Ron Davis made Mario Rea look like a gentleman and a scholar. If you have any option other than Santa Monica Ford - my advice is to TAKE IT. Ford Motor Co should not associate itself with these clowns. Accuracy of my experience & comments: Don't take my word for it. Check out the other reviews here and on Yelp. More

Victor Ramirez was a terrific salesperson I worked with Victor Ramirez and bought a Ford SUV. He was the only salesperson in Southern CA (I went to several) who knew about his product, but who I worked with Victor Ramirez and bought a Ford SUV. He was the only salesperson in Southern CA (I went to several) who knew about his product, but who also went the extra mile to research and find exactly what I was looking for. He always returned my emails, even when I bothered him on his days off, and made the final purchase go very smoothly. I am just so glad he put in that extra effort and I got the very hard to find car I wanted. More

Terrible Customer Service I've called many times and gone in twice, and these people act like it's a huge inconvenience for them to have to fix my car. They are not in a rush t I've called many times and gone in twice, and these people act like it's a huge inconvenience for them to have to fix my car. They are not in a rush to help you, are rude, and make you feel like a nuisance for asking them to fix your car. I mean, really, the gall! Taking my car to the dealership to have it fixed! You're right, Mario. I'm out of line. You're right to treat me like pond xxxx. I recommend going to Star Ford in Glendale. It's far away but they're always super nice and accommodating. More

Excellent Customer Service My experience at SM Ford was absolutely great to say the least. I give 5 stars to Santa Monica Ford for the excellent customer service that was provid My experience at SM Ford was absolutely great to say the least. I give 5 stars to Santa Monica Ford for the excellent customer service that was provided to me by Justin and Tim Kamotto, they were excellent in helping me pick my car which is a ford mustang, [I’ve been wanting this car since I was a teenager and my dreams finally came true]. These two gentleman had an amazing attitude and made me feel right at home I began my process over the telephone with Justin which made things easier and so much faster once I made it to the dealership. I was only there for a couple of hours and was able to enjoy the rest of my day in my new car. The reason I turned to Santa Monica Ford when I was in the market for a new car was because Justin made me feel at ease in initially speaking to him over the phone, many other dealers were calling but Justin was so friendly and didn’t make me feel like he was a salesman he really listened to what I wanted. I found this dealership through the Internet, and I was extremely happy with my choice. I was used to traditional dealer tactics, and I was very concerned with the idea that they might pull a fast one, since I was a lady and my husband was not able to go with me and it turned out to be the best car buying experience I’ve ever had and the most satisfying for me it’s been a really long time since I’ve smelled the new car smell unless. I will definitely look to this dealership first when I am looking to purchase my next vehicle and hopefully Justin and Tim Kamotto will be there because they’re the ones that made my experience so pleasant.
