No after sale service, despite warranty I bought a 2014 Ford Fiesta three months ago. We soon noticed that the driver side front tire had a slow leak, but we had things to do, so we just mad I bought a 2014 Ford Fiesta three months ago. We soon noticed that the driver side front tire had a slow leak, but we had things to do, so we just made sure the tire was aired up. Yesterday, I called the Automax Service Center to schedule the tire to be looked at. I called in the morning, but was told someone would call me back shortly. I waited until 4 p.m., then called them again. They said someone would call me - which did not happen. This morning (Tuesday) I called them again. They put me on hold for about 5-6 minutes then I got disconnected. I called back immediately, and was on hold for about 10 minutes, after which I hung up and called back. I explained to the operator that I have been trying to get in touch with the Service department for two days and I wanted to know why I could not get a simple tire fixed, and she replied with a crappy attitude, very snippy, "I don't work in the service department," after which I hung up. I spent thousands of dollars for a car, but when I need them to do a repair for a few dollars I can't get any assistance. If I need warranty work done, I will go to another Ford dealership.

Worst car buying experience of my life Bought a vehicle for over $30,000 within 2 months it starts falling apart. I'm stuck now paying for the $3,000 plus for repairs. All they can say is i Bought a vehicle for over $30,000 within 2 months it starts falling apart. I'm stuck now paying for the $3,000 plus for repairs. All they can say is it's not in their policy. The salesmen are unprofessional and dishonest. Actually had one stop talking to me in the middle of a conversation to check out a female coworker. Save yourself the time and headache. Worst car buying experience of my life. Never Ever again More

WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!!!! I AM PLEASED WITH AUTOMAX As you may see my other review on here. I was called in to Automax today to discuss things with the finance advisor Brandon Ming. Let me just say that As you may see my other review on here. I was called in to Automax today to discuss things with the finance advisor Brandon Ming. Let me just say that Brandon did everything in his power to allow me to drive away in my new 2014 Hyundai Sonata, trading in my 2013 Ford Fiesta. Terrence Wade was my sales advisor, he is wonderful, if you are looking for a new car, anything is possible with Terrence I promise, and Jamie Gentles which is the finance department, is also wonderful, he handled all of my paperwork with care, made sure that I fully understood everything before I signed the paper work. I am pleased with Automax, this is my third car buying from them. Thank you Automax! More

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE/ UNLAWFUL WORK ETHICS I am a 20 year old female, residing in Killeen, Texas. My father is currently in the Armed Forces, and is living in Hawaii with my mother. My mother a I am a 20 year old female, residing in Killeen, Texas. My father is currently in the Armed Forces, and is living in Hawaii with my mother. My mother and father purchased a used 2009 silver Cobalt from Automax in Killeen, Texas. After having the car for about two years, I went and purchased a 2013 New Ford Fiesta, lime squeeze in color. I purchased the car in March of 2013. The Fiesta started having troubles, with the transmission, which should never occur on a new car. I had repeatedly told Automax about the issue, as they continued to shove my issue to the side, stating that Ford has placed new shifters in all of the vehicles. As I am driving my car, with my three year old son, I stalled out in the middle of a four-way intersection. I immediately take the car in to Automax, for them to find something wrong with the car, as I initially suggested. They had to order four different parts for the Fiesta. I ordered the parts in January it is now May, and I receive a phone call in late April stating that my parts had finally arrived. That's three months I had to wait, with no replacement car given, so I am still driving the fiesta with my child inside, and have to navigate to and from to Austin, Texas about an hour away to school. So I finally had enough and went to Automax to see if they could put me in a new car, I was tired of the hassle, After being turned away multiple times, someone finally decided to help me. I was able to purchase a 2014 New Hyundai Sonata. So, after two weeks of driving the new car, I get a phone call to come in to Automax to finalize paperwork before they send the documents to my mother in Hawaii to co-sign. I had already signed the buyers agreement with Automax. When I went in to Automax after driving the new car for two weeks, my interest rate, and monthly payment had changed drastically. I no longer agreed to purchase the vehicle, and neither did my mother, so I end up getting the Fiesta back. The fiesta had not been touched, still had not been fixed, I now have to take the car back down to Automax on Tuesday May the 6th to get the parts put on. This is my only vehicle to get around in. I put 500.00 down towards the new car, I am now requesting my money back on a car that I am no longer driving, I am getting the run around to receive this money back, and still have yet to receive it. I had a loan through Wells Fargo for the Fiesta. Automax never paid off the Fiesta, so payments added up as well as late fees, so a 387.64 payment went to a 420.00 payment, on top of another 387.64 payment, which of course I had to pay. My mother and I were in danger of being turned in to a collections agency, which is not out fault. We have made every single payment on time, my mother's credit is excellent, while I am still building mine, and she was in danger of having her credit dropped dramatically. Automax failed to contact Wells Fargo for their mistake. I am not happy with Automax at all. I also referred a customer to them, which was a mistake, and was due to receive 200.00 for the referral within weeks, I did not receive that until three months after the referral, since they lost all of my paperwork. I also requested that the GAP insurance be cancelled on the Fiesta, they lost the paperwork for that, good thing I had a personal copy. I submitted that in August, and didn't get it refunded until about February. I would never refer another friend or family member to Automax in Killeen, Texas. I may be 20 years old, but I am no fool. My father is military and will be getting higher authorities involved. Automax had their license suspended from selling to military, and has recently gained it back. I have not met one employee in that building that has worked with me, that has been the slight bit of friendly, and caring. They do not care about anything, but the money. They are selling vehicles in conditions that should not be sold in. I am very disappointed and never want to associate, or work with Automax again. I feel that this issue needs to be heard, and known so it does not happen to anyone else. More

Like the right hand does not know what the left is doing I ordered some part first of April. I was told then one price but when the order was complete the price was way higher. Was told they would take less I ordered some part first of April. I was told then one price but when the order was complete the price was way higher. Was told they would take less then a week - as of today April 18 they are still not in. I was very clear and asked three or more times if this did not work could I return them for a full refund. Yes was the answer three times. Called today to see where they were and to cancel the order. Spend the day waiting for a return call. I call back had trouble taking to a manager finally did and he needed to get the refund approved (What kind of manager is that?) Have not heard back so will call the credit company tomorrow to see if I can stop payment on the credit card. More

At 9:00 AM I brought my F-150 in for an oil change and inspection sticker. I was told that it would take 2 hours, ( this is express service). I waited in the waiting area, where they have a flat screen inspection sticker. I was told that it would take 2 hours, ( this is express service). I waited in the waiting area, where they have a flat screen TV right next to the Cashier's counter. The TV had on ESPN, well I am not into sports and I was the only person sitting there, so I asked the cashier to turn the channel to CNN or Fox news, and she told me no. I asked her why she couldn't honor my request and she said the Owner's rules, I asked was the owner watching the TV, and indicated it was a stupid rule. Keep in mind, if there were others watching this TV I would not have made my request. If the TV is for the customer's benefit, then why not allow a customer who is there spending their money the ability to change the channel. Not everyone likes sports. This is just Poor Customer relations. While waiting on my truck, the service tech, informed me that I needed new wiper blades to pass inspection, I said there is nothing wrong with my wipers I just used them this morning. I didn't want Ford blades because they don't last very long. He indicated If they didn't put the blades on the vehicle, I would have to come back for re-inspection. I told them to replace the blades, knowing there was noting wrong with them. He later came back and said he misunderstood the inspector, that the blades pass inspection but that they should be replace due to some minor wear. The service as complete 1 hour and 45 minutes later, really not the amount of time I would expect to wait for an oil change and inspection. About a week later I get a call from them and instead of wanting to know how was the service, they try to convince me bring in my 2010 F-150 for trade because it only has 25000 miles and they need good used cars. I told the guy on the phone, If I wanted a new vehicle, I would have bought one before and hung up the phone.... I don't think I will be doing business with these guys any time soon.. as a customer I just felt as if I was an interruption to their day. More
