I recently bought a 2014 Mustang V6 Premium. My whole experience from start to finish was enjoyable, I knew right away that I was in good, trustworthy hands. I started researching online and had a good experience from start to finish was enjoyable, I knew right away that I was in good, trustworthy hands. I started researching online and had a good idea of what I was looking for so decided to call Palmetto Ford, where I had bought my original Mustang in 1994. I spoke with Dan Lentz who impressed me from the get go - he was warm & friendly as well as professional, he established rapport right away & I felt that he sincerely cared abut finding me the car I wanted, it wasn't just a 'sale' - he certainly is an asset to Palmetto Ford! He spent time searching inventory throughout the South East and came up with the perfect car. Dan went the further mile giving me all the options and price differences depending on my choices, showing a lot of patience and also being prompt in emailing me all the details. The price he quoted included matching another dealership coupon plus a further cash incentive, thank you Dan! I had initially requested a woman sales person, as I wanted to support women in business, so Dan then introduced me to Molly McFadden who immediately impressed me with her friendly, warm professionalism. Molly took me for a test drive and was most helpful in pointing out all the 'bells and whistles' - the 2014 Mustang is certainly quite a car! I really enjoyed working with Molly, she was most supportive and understanding about my concern for my 1994 Mustang buddy that I was trading and assured me that she wouldn't go off to the 'chop shop!' Molly negotiated the final sale, I never felt 'pressured' in any way and I was pleased with the finalized deal which I thought was very fair, thank you Molly! At all times there was an atmosphere of helpful, friendly yet professional service. I also enjoyed working with Ron Austin who took care of all the paperwork, he too was so helpful and prompt in finalizing all the legal details. Overall I can certainly recommend Palmetto Ford, it has the sincere, friendly and trustworthy service of a family business with a high standard of professionalism. I was very impressed with Dan and Molly and Ron, their attention to detail and warm professionalism made all the difference to my experience - 5*****! Thank you all! And I love my new Mustang, she is a silver beauty and a joy to drive! Sincerely, wlallison More

I was contacted by the sales manager concerning the below experience. He went out of his way to rectify the situation. Thank you. Went to the dealership this evening to purchase a new escape, because the int experience. He went out of his way to rectify the situation. Thank you. Went to the dealership this evening to purchase a new escape, because the internet price was very good. The salesman was very nice and helpful, unfortunately when it came time to crunch the numbers the trade in value offered was $2500 below NADA trade in value. I expect to have to do a little negotiating when making a deal so I asked for pay off for my trade (payoff for my vehicle is $600 over NADA). I did not ask for a price reduction on the escape because the advertised price was good and I was prepared to pay the difference between the payoff amount and the NADA trade in value. He went back to the sales manager and came back with a number that $1500 below trade in value. When I pointed out that I knew what the values of my car were for trade in and retail his response was " well, our vehicle is not priced at retail". The dealership made a choice to price this vehicle below retail but then tried to make up the difference buy offering the a low amount for my trade. The difference between the trade in offer was almost exactly the difference between the retail price and the sale price of the new vehicle. Unfortunately for this dealership I had a bank draft with me and was prepared to buy the escape tonight until they made the poor decision to offer such a low amount for my car. This is the second bad experience I've had with this dealership, and the only reason I decided to try them again is because the owner rectified the issue quickly during the first bad experience. This will be the last time I attempt to do business with Palmetto Ford. More

We are out-of-state volunteers at Edisto State park. We had a problem with the door latch on our 2011 Ford Edge. Took it to Palmetto on October 7. First they made me sign a paper saying I would pay $125 to had a problem with the door latch on our 2011 Ford Edge. Took it to Palmetto on October 7. First they made me sign a paper saying I would pay $125 to run diagnostics on it. I told them the problem so a diagnostic was not necessary. Met a man in waiting room from Charleston who said they did not make him pay the $125 on his 2009 Ford F150. Gary Ferguson came in later told me the car needed a door latch. I had already told him that. He said it would cost $400-$500 to repair it. Gary insisted that we pay the $125. When we checked out AR the cashier charged us $150. I was busy talking to Gary, who said he had ordered the latch, that he would call me the next morning about when to bring it in because it would be here the next day. The part was in the warehouse. Called him the next day about 11 since he had not called me. Told me he could not get the part. I explained to him that since he could not get the part & that the other guy from Charleston was not charged a diagnostic fee so he should refund my money. After a long discussion he said he MIGHT be able to refund half of the $125. I told him I was charged $150. He seemed surprised! Later I called my home dealership, BF Evans in Livermore, Ky to see what they charged for a diagnostic. He said usually it was ONLY $69 & we should have received a copy of the diagnostic. I called Gary Ferguson again & requested a copy of the diagnostic report be e-mailed or mailed to me. All the information is in Ford's system as he told us he found it. What have I learned from this experience? Gary Ferguson & Palmetto Ford have some ethical issues with one lie leading to another. Don't do business with CROOKS. More
