Duval Ford - Service Center

Dwyane, who is supposedly the go to guy for Super Duty trucks, was EXTREMELY rude to me, he talked to me like I was an idiot and like he knew all the answers. What was funny, was when it came to actually trucks, was EXTREMELY rude to me, he talked to me like I was an idiot and like he knew all the answers. What was funny, was when it came to actually knowing parts and stuff about the truck, he claimed he 'didn't know, and wasn't a mechanic' yet he expected me to do his job for him. He never spoke an ill word or gave my husband the attitude he gave me on the phone, which leads me to believe he has some superiority complex when it comes to women. He quoted me a price of $600+ dollars for a repair. I called a guy who isn't a 'Ford certified' tech and he did the SAME job for $160?? How is it possible they could be THAT far off? Then, not only did he fix it for $160, he actually found what the real problem was with the thing all in one day, somehow this 'Ford certified' top dollar guy couldn't find that in a week's worth of 'diagnosing'?! When I confronted Dwayne about it, he basically said 'ok, uh huh' totally brushing it under the rug. I made several attempts to contact Ed Roberts who is Dwayne's boss to tell him about the problem, and apparently customer service isn't in his job description cause he never found the time to call me back. I received a call from an employee, a very nice woman, who took my statement about the problem and assured me she would have Ed Roberts call me the next day. I still, 2 weeks later, have never heard from the guy. I called the tech who had done the repairs and he quoted me a price of around $250 for the repair of the actual problem. I miraculously, got a phone call from Dwayne a day later and he quoted me for the same job, around $80. Which leads me to believe one thing, his boss or someone higher than him told him to quote me cost of the part to 'please me and get rid of me'. They will turn around and file a seperate claim on the part along with labor and make back the money they lost. I ONLY brought my truck to Duval Ford because Dwayne told me it was still under warranty, then once it came to giving me a price, magically it no longer was. I know better than to take any vehicle to a dealership for customer paid repairs, they screw you on the price and the markup for their gifted techs is unwarranted. If you have a Super Duty and you MUST deal with Duval Ford's service dept...ask for someone other than their 'expert'. More
