They are the best - hands down. After extensive searching, this was our 3rd time buying from this dealership. Getting ready to go check out the electric focus for mom searching, this was our 3rd time buying from this dealership. Getting ready to go check out the electric focus for mom More

Worst "attempted" used car buying experience of my life. Wired a large deposit to hold a sports car I found on line (I live 700+ miles away). When I wired my money, the car was available. Next m my life. Wired a large deposit to hold a sports car I found on line (I live 700+ miles away). When I wired my money, the car was available. Next morning I get a text telling me "sorry, the car sold late last night" (after the money exited my bank account!) All I got was a "sorry" from the salesperson, Nate. I wanted this car and tried togiveMr. salesperson my debit card to move it off the "for sale" row and he wouldn't take it, nor would he have anyone contact my bank (same large bank that they use too!) to verify my funding, which should have protected my purchase of this vehicle as all this, including the wire transfer happened many hours before he said it got sold from underneath me. Unethical and dishonest business practices...salesman either was playing two hands and sold it to a local buyer, or too incompetent to move it off the for sale row and let another rep sell it for him to someone else. And go figure...the same car, after more than two weeks... is still for sale on their website! What a well run dealership?!?! Guess they don't really want to sell anything especially to anyone out of state? You tell me, pretty mind blowing. I got my $1K deposit back...took over a week, and frankly thought they were going to try to keep it because I could not get any answers from Nate, Corina, or their General Sales Manager Jim Elder via two online surveys. Gary Sommer did return my voicemail regarding the status of my $1K deposit being returned but it was VERY obvious that he did not want to hear my side of this "failed purchase" story. And frankly, that was okay with me because I was so sick of dealing with his employees and their games, poor communication, unresponded auto generated internet surveys, etc...I just wanted to get my money back and have the following thoughts: 1. NOT endup buying a car from this dealership. 2. NOT end up buying a non refundable one way ticket to Detroit to get the car. 3. NOT have to file a complaint with Sterling Height's BBB, and Michigan's Attorney General since their check (my deposit) has cleared my bank. 4. Knowing who the owner is of this shabby Ford Dealership and how to reach him with this story, knowing Ford Motor Company would like to know additional details not even discussed in my review (above), AND... 5. Hoping...this company takes a close look at the way they do business, clean some house, fix some internal policies, get real about prospective buyer communication, and remove dishonesty and poor ethics in their organization. I am certain they owe me and many others a pretty large apology. 6. Knowing I have several other online surveys I can take about this experience with "SUBURBAN FORD OF STERLING HEIGHTS" and their "PEOPLE" in hopes of helping some other consumers to avoid this dealership and their games. Hope this "whining" helps someone avoid these people. More

Working with Mike Smitley is a great experience. This is the second time I have worked with him, I was referred to him by a friend after having a less than enjoyable experience while leasing a vehicle. Mike the second time I have worked with him, I was referred to him by a friend after having a less than enjoyable experience while leasing a vehicle. Mike is very conscientious and non-demeaning - I am a single woman and have previously dreaded the car buying/leasing process before meeting Mike. He got me a great deal with a vehicle that is more than I ever expected to get --- I LOVE IT! Thank you Mike, Sincerely, Amy Mittelstaedt More

My total exsperience at Suburban Sterling Hts. was fantastic. I was greeted at the door on a nasty winter day with a handshake and a smile from Mike Smitley. He inquired what type of vehicle I was fantastic. I was greeted at the door on a nasty winter day with a handshake and a smile from Mike Smitley. He inquired what type of vehicle I was interrested in and the options I wanted and needed to build the truck of my dreams. And he kept with me until we had it right. After the F 150 Lariat arrived I recieved a few follow calls from Mike to find out how the vehicle was working for me. That really impressed me. I would deffinatly return to this dealership for my next purchase and I will be using the service department also. More
