UNACCEPTABLE CARE FROM FORD This past Saturday, the battery light turned red 3 times at different stoplights and my car stalled each time. I drove to the Carrollton dealership ( This past Saturday, the battery light turned red 3 times at different stoplights and my car stalled each time. I drove to the Carrollton dealership (which is where my Escape 2017 is being leased from) for assistance and was given an appointment to return for servicing and a loner car on Thursday, February 14th. This is unacceptable Customer Service and I'm disappointed that the latter was my only option. At least ... offering me a ride to a rental service as well as leaving my car at Five Star Ford for repair would be expected. My car was just checked two weeks ago and there weren't any problems found. I understand a loner car was not possible on Saturday due to not being able to provide one to me. Consider taking one off the lot for situations such as this. I'm hesitant to drive my car because I do not want to risk being stranded. Five Star must first consider its loyal customer and not ever send one away without an immediate solution. I was willing to wait at the dealership while a technician examined my car and was denied the latter. My prior service visits were excellent. Mr. Sam Pack should review the process of sending a loyal customer home without an immediate solution. After all, the push to purchase an auto moves faster than a thoroughbred at the Derby. I'm sure the gentleman assisting me in the Service area was compliant with Mr. Pack's policies and didn't have a choice. However, chancing that my car might break down any time, I'm without mobility until Thursday and I hope I won't have to be towed to the dealership. Moving forward, I will not recommend Five Star. I expect Five Star to be prepared to give me a loner car at the time of my 9:00AM appointment on Thursday. Thank you. More
Recall Gone Wrong But Mgmt did good fixing it. I took my focus in for a recall on a Monday at 10:30 AM. No one called me so I called them at 4PM on Tuesday(today) and that's when they tell me they I took my focus in for a recall on a Monday at 10:30 AM. No one called me so I called them at 4PM on Tuesday(today) and that's when they tell me they had to order parts and my car wouldn't be ready til maybe lunch time Wednesday. I am a working man that has a job to go to. They refuse to give me a rental car or reemburse me for an uber. That is insane. The problem I really have is a communication and customer service issue. Im really perplexed how no one thought it was important to call and communicate with me that we wouldn't be getting the car back and that they had to order parts and it wouldn't be ready til the following business day. A simple phone call saying, "Sir this is so and so and I just wanted to let you know that unfortunately your car won't be ready today despite me telling you yesterday it would and we will have to order parts to fix it. It wont be ready until tomorrow around lunch time. Im so sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you. Unfortunately we wont be able to provide a rental or reemburse you for uber. I do apologize." INSTEAD no one called at all and I had to call myself at 4PM and get attitude like sorry about your bad luck man! I work in customer service and do not understand why there was no communication or ownership for the issue. Just attitude and figure it out buddy is all I seemed to get. If I had known sooner or had been communicated with properly, I could have arranged a ride. Now I have to pay for an uber. I understand customer service can be hard because I work in it as well but customer service issues can be avoided 99% of the time if there is proper communication, sincerity and ownership(even if its out of your control) for the situation. I hope this helps for proper further training of employees and that they are more open minded to customer satisfaction. This caused me to give a one star. Update to this review, customer service reached out to me and paid for my Lyft Drive. My recommendation would be to over communicate with the service department. After Drew reached out to me I've upgraded them to three stars. More
Scheduled Service Kevin actually remembered me from a call I had place and new of some potentials delays with parts for my car and was transparent around potentials len Kevin actually remembered me from a call I had place and new of some potentials delays with parts for my car and was transparent around potentials length of time my car would need to be at the dealership. Easy drop off and "Pete", the gentlemen that provided a ride this morning, was extremely friendly. No one likes to have their car worked on, the Five Star Ford Carrollton Team understands this and you can tell customer service is a top priority for this dealership! Jeff Jannereth More

Had I been hit by a pass by car while stuck in the street or hospitalized or on news for being put on road in car with NO OIL to take to a orginal shop....STILL DISSAPPOINTED & I have been a customer to that shop for years while living in ADDISON 10 YEARS.....VERY DISSAPPOINTING, NO EMPATHY, PROFESSIONALISM OR PROPER COMMUNICATION in sending a woman on road in a car you know leaked oil after diagnostic, having me pay & saying to me, you can make it there, it's ready.....IT WASN'T READY, IT DIDN'T MAKE IT & THAT WAS NEGLIGENT!!!! To Ford workers this is not about your egos, listen TO PEOPLE & DO WHAT'S RIGHT!!! BE ACCOUNTABLE WHEN YOU'RE WRONG & TAKE THE DEFENSIVENESS & EGOS OUT THE EQUATION!!! More
Simple oil change I have been a loyal Sam Pack customer for several years. 3 new pickups! I have been attempting to get an oil change. Each time I am being told 1 1/2 I have been a loyal Sam Pack customer for several years. 3 new pickups! I have been attempting to get an oil change. Each time I am being told 1 1/2 to 2 hours, wether you are first thing in the morning or later. This is unexceptable. New facility, more technicians ect ect ect??? I have continued buying my pickups because of the way I was treated by the personnel. They tell me there is nothing they can do about the situation. Well, they have one more time slot because I won't be coming back! More

We I came to Sam Pack 5 Star to service my f-150 FX. Reuben Krause met me outside to see if I needed assistance. He was very friendly and respectful. We just had a good conversation about trucks. My wife joined us and we asked him to run numbers based on our needs. Reuben had it all worked out in less than an hour. It was the least painful vehicle purchase in my life. I love my new Ford truck. Thanks Reuben & Sam Pack Ford Sincerely, Bruce & Kelli Todd More

Argumentative From start to finish it was a struggle. It started off with an argument with an analogy about one of the issues with my car. Then without notice or From start to finish it was a struggle. It started off with an argument with an analogy about one of the issues with my car. Then without notice or warning, I had to wait about 40 minutes for a shuttle to take more 3 miles. If I would have know the wait, I could have had someone from work pick me up. After 20 minutes, I inquired and was told another 10 minutes, which turned into 20 more minutes. At about 2:45 P.M., I realized that I never heard back about my car which was dropped off at 7:20 A.M. I called and was once again met with resistance and an argument. Moody was not able or willing to tell me when my car would be done or if it would be done that day. This was concerning because I would need to find alternate transportation home. I also inquired as to why my car was just starting to be looked at in the mid-afternoon after making an appointment for 7:30. This was met with another analogy and argument that ended with him saying and I don't think we can get the inspection done. I could go further, but in the end they finished my vehicle just after 5:00 P.M. Although, Sam Pack is closed to my work, I am going to start using Westway Ford to see if their service is better. More
