I was able to take the vehicle overnight to test drive it. She did everything in her hands to make sure I got what I wanted. The management had changed and the dealership is much better! I had a disappointment during a service request and after communicating the concern to the sales director; he was able to accommodate and exceed my expectations. In another note, please make sure that your vehicle doesn't have any open safety recalls before taking it home! They surely LISTEN and try to accommodate any concerns you have. More

We began talking and he set me up with a test drive in a 2.3 4 cyl Mustang. It was the best test drive I ever took. It was relaxing and I was able to choose the route. We talked about cars and football. Back at the dealership we kept talking and a few hours later I left with that Mustang. McDouglas was very professional, polite and he listened to my wants and needs concerning this car. He is a credit to your organization and a gentleman. I will highly recommend Big Star to my friends. Additionally all of the other people involved in helping me get the car were very professional also. Regards, Don Mullett New Mustang Owner- 1st time and this is the 6th Ford I have bought from a Ford Dealer in this US of A." Don Mullett More

Great experience We bought a Ford Fusion from Christian Danford. He is very friendly and helpful. Low pressure, which we really liked. We stopped in late on Friday and We bought a Ford Fusion from Christian Danford. He is very friendly and helpful. Low pressure, which we really liked. We stopped in late on Friday and made an appointment to come back the next day. He had the Fusion ready for us to drive, and was helpful in explaining the features of the car. Back in the showroom James Jackson, the Sales Manager, worked hard to get us the exact vehicle we wanted. This took some doing as he had found one at another dealership only to find out that it had just sold, and he scrambled to get us another one. I had done extensive price research and knew what a good price was, and their first offer was right on target. My one issue was that they added on a $400 warranty package that that they were not up front about. I was watching the paperwork very carefully but didn't notice this until the next day. They were good about letting me cancel it and refunding my money, though. Overall a very good sales experience, great price, and a great car. More

Horrible Customer Service and Service Department Service department is absolutely horrible. I had a service done on June 8th 2015 and afterwards I noticed that fluids were not topped off and grease m Service department is absolutely horrible. I had a service done on June 8th 2015 and afterwards I noticed that fluids were not topped off and grease marks on inside panels of car. I then needed some more items fixed so I made an appointment for today June 19th at 8 am. I arrived at 7:45 dropped the keys off and asked how long it would be, the reply was a couple of hours so I told the service coordinator I would wait. At 9:50 I noticed my car was still parked and I inquired how much longer it would be. I was told the technician was working on it. I informed him no one is working on it because the car is still parked. The service coordinator went and asked the technician who came back and told me he was still waiting on some parts. Eleven days and they still did not have the parts for the job and they just left me sitting in the waiting area. I asked for my keys back and left. When I asked what is the purpose of having a 8am appointment I was told that was for the advisor not the service. I had the advice on June 8th. Absolute waste of customers' time. The Service Drive Manager asked how things were going when he walked by and when I told him he didn't even come back to me to give an update after he checked up on the problem. Another customer asked what happened and when I told him he mentioned he was having similar problems. I purchased both my vehicles at this dealership and have all services done there but over the past few years customer service and trustworthiness have declined significantly. I even had items stolen from my center console one time. I will no longer bring any of my vehicles to this dealership for service and will definitely not be purchasing any vehicles from here. Best advice is to stay away. UPDATE: I was requested to call the General Sales Manager, Mr. James Jackson, back in response to my YELP comments. Over a 3 day period I have left 2 voicemails, was transferred back to operator once, left a note with the operator for him and still no response. When I inquired about who the owner of Big Star Ford was and their contact information the operator told me they did not have any information for them and that I could look it up online. Another example of the poor customer service at this location. More

Conditional Purchase of a 2010 Ford Focus I purchased a used Focus from Big Star in a conditional sale as the vehicle had a vibration. At first the mechanic at Big Star said it was the motor I purchased a used Focus from Big Star in a conditional sale as the vehicle had a vibration. At first the mechanic at Big Star said it was the motor mounts. The motor mounts were replaced, the vehicle continued to have abnormal vibration. We took the vehicle to a different service center for maintenance and were told the motor had significant motor movement and that the motor mounts likely needed replacing. We took the vehicle back to Big Star, after a couple of days we went to Big Star and were told the transmission was the culprit, even their mechanic came out and told us the transmission pressure was off causing the vibration and it was the problem all along. Big Star said they were going to put a new transmission with a 3 yr warranty and that we would be better off with the deal. After almost a month and many calls to Big Star for updates, we finally got the vehicle back. We requested documents on the work, but had to go back to Big Star to get them. Within a few days the vehicle started making noise once again, and began getting worse. Upon inspection of the documents we had to go obtain, I noticed the transmission was obtained from Parts Unlimited, once I looked them up I realized they were a Salvage yard in Pearland. I called Parts Unlimited and asked if they sold re- built or new transmissions, they said no were are a junk yard! As it turned out, it was obvious Big Star had put not one but two junk yard transmissions in our car, the first one burnt up on the mechanic when hevtest drove it. That's probably why they had the car for a month to do the repair. With all of this, we went to Big Star and asked for them to take the vehicle back. And refund if not all , but a acceptable portion of the purchase price. The Sales Manager understood, however the GM would not agree to taking the vehicle back, unless we were willing to get another vehicle from Big Star. I explained we no longer had trust in Big Star Sales or the Service group and wished not to do business w them any longer. Big Star still would not agree to take the vehicle back that they touted had gone through their Service center for inspection prior to being placed on their lot for sale. Ultimately, I elected to take a loss of about $4 on the Focus and went elsewhere to purchase my wife a replacement vehicle. I am sharing my story as a simple caution to those considering Big Star used vehicles or using their Service center. More
