Management Failures The GOOD: - Low-pressure pricing and sales approach - Vehicle delivered on time and in excellent condition - Friendly helpful staff members (but no The GOOD: - Low-pressure pricing and sales approach - Vehicle delivered on time and in excellent condition - Friendly helpful staff members (but not management) The BAD: I wish I could end the review with those compliments, but the low rating results from management’s poor attitude and responsiveness in addressing a relatively minor issue: Two days after taking possession of my Escape, I noticed that the nav system maps were not the latest available (new maps had been available for more than 3 months). I brought it to the attention of my sales associate, who referred me to the sales manager, who referred me to the service manager, who was unavailable and was to call me back. After 3 days I called the sales manager again and left a voicemail indicating the service manager never called me. After 4 more days with no response (7 total), I called again and was able to finally get through to him. I attempted to convince him that my NEW car with a NEW nav system should absolutely come with current maps. He stuck with an “I just resell what I get” argument, dismissing my concern. Had the vehicle sale depended on it, I’m certain he would have been more imaginative in resolving the issue. He again transferred me to the service manager, who was still unavailable and again never called me back. After 3 more days (10 in all), I gave up on Bowen Scarff and contacted Ford Customer Service directly. A manager called me back promptly, immediately recognized my concern as valid, and within 2 hours had arranged to have the nav update added under my vehicle warrantee. Kudos to Ford Customer Service… not so much for the dealership’s management. What shabby treatment for a first time new Ford owner! How can I possibly recommend Bowen Scarff to friends and family after such poor behavior from both Sales and Service management? They should take a tip from Ford Customer Service, and even from their own staff when it comes to how to treat new owners. More

They don't pressure you into buying, they follow through on their commitments, they are friendly and courteous. The finance process was pain free and fast, no wasting my time trying to sell me add ons like other dealerships. I recommend BSF to all of my friends and family. More
