No like all the other car dealerships. - CaitlinG

My luck hasn’t been the greatest the past couple of months. It has been one bad thing after another. I was involved in a car accident, and my car was totaled out. I was put in a rental until the other persons insurance evaluated my vehicle. I knew the rental was only going to last for so long. I couldn’t let this car accident mess with my every day life. Therefore; I was proactive on the vehicle searching. A week after the car accident, I went to look at a 2013 Mazda CX-5. I educated my self about this vehicle, I read the whole history on that carfax. I got to the dealership, none of the sales people chased me down. I actually had to go inside and ask for assistance. My salesperson was Mark Kleve, a wonderful man. The dealership just got the vehicle, Mark didn’t know everything about the it...which was perfectly acceptable. We took the vehicle out for a spin. I was sold! So a couple days go by and Mark calls me. It was listed for $11,400. Not a bad price, even Kelly Blue Book agreed. Doesn’t hurt to try and knock the price down, right? Well... no budge. I was okay with that, because of KBB. Couple more days go by, and I kept finding myself looking back at that vehicle. I called Mark up, and told him that I want that Mazda. I advised him that my credit isn’t the greatest and I had no co-signer. What were my options? Mark got me in touch with their finance manager; Kim. Straight out of the gates, Kim was awesome. She was very helpful and acomadating. I put a little money down to hold the vehicle, giving the insurance time to write a check. The insurance did everything wrong and it took a few weeks to get the check. Kim and Mark were easy going, helpful, understand, and not pushy. They made this process more pleasant, thank you. And thank you to the Lou Fusz, for holding the vechine for much longer than promised. I will refer your business to everyone and anyone. Thank you! I’m so glad I got to take the Mazda home today!

Love my car! - Soulee98

Chuck is awesome! He had everything set up to the tee, found my perfect car for me right off the bat! Thank you so much!

I have taken my truck to West Plains Morlan Shell Ford - Lisamcgowne

I have taken my truck to West Plains Morlan Shell Ford for the last year on three different occasions for a supposed failed vacuum pump that thank goodness was covered by my extended warranty in the beginning. Fast forward to now on my FOURTH visit for the same failed vacuum pump and a different tech happens to walk by and says that doesn’t look like a vacuum pump, it looks like a valve cover. So this whole time it’s been a valve cover and not the pump. (By their own admission.) But now my extended warranty is out and Morlan Shell Ford says , nope, it’s not our problem we aren’t going to cover this even though they admit they drop the ball.

Paul Cerame Service is poor. - Rich

My 2016 Ford Focus, while I wouldn't call it a lemon, is a huge disappointment. It is a car that has had too much work needed within or immediately outside the warranty period. About two years ago when a little bit of time/mileage was left on the 3/36 warranty, I noticed that it struggled to maintain on hills if your foot wasn't on the brake. I'm not meaning for an extended period of time. I mean in the time that you adjust your footing on the brake or shift to the gas pedal. I realize that to some extent that cars can 'slip' a little bit in these situations and I told the service manager at Paul Cerame Ford this when he tried to lecture me on this. I said, I've driven over 500K miles, for 33 years and with multiple cars, so I have a clue what to expect. I said, this car stands out as one that doesn't hold it's position well. Anyway, just over 2 years ago I took it as this was a noticeable problem. It was covered under warranty and it was 'fixed' and I didn't think about it too much. Bad clutch, authorized Ford dealership fixed it. I'm probably good. I didn't think about a warranty on the new clutch. The warranty I found out that I was given was a 12 month/12K mile warranty. To me a clutch is an item that you should have for a while. From https://www.stoneacre.co.uk/car-service-and-repairs-q-and-a/how-long-does-a-clutch-last "Most clutches are designed to last approximately 60,000 miles before they need to be replaced. Some may need replacing at 30,000 and some others can keep going well over 100,000 miles, but this is fairly uncommon." Okay so my first clutch, it went out at around 30K, my next clutch started failing within the first year I had it and I thought maybe this is something that isn't covered? I don't know, I'm driving another car commonly and I don't do excessive hill driving and I don't do excessive hill parking, so you know I might sense I have an issue and I might just shift to my other car or not run into the situation again where it is slipping for another little while and 'out of sight, out of mind'. I'm reading that they are commonly designed to go about 60K miles before being replaced. But, the (Cerame/Ford) warranty on their replacement clutch was a weak 12month/12K miles. It's like don't count on our quality parts/workmanship for too long. I pointed out that having such a weak warranty indicates that you all don't have much faith in your parts/work. If you did, you'd give a better warranty. So he defended it of course and started to cite customer satisfaction since 1995 or that's where he was going. I shut him down as how is that relevant to me. I had a clutch that fails kind of early on the car and their replacement clutch isn't any better, if anything the part/work didn't last even that long. Instead of owning up the fact that perhaps they aren't perfect he went into a defend the dealership mode and deal with it mode. That's a fine way to treat a customer who has gotten work done there on multiple occasions. As I indicated, I wasn't very quick on dealing with this as I have another car I commonly drive, I have a busy life and it's not real convenient for me to drop the car off there. You know time passes and you neglect. It was all: Call Ford if you have a beef. No, let's see how we can keep you a happy and loyal customer. No let's look at it and see if clutch replacement didn't work out well or let's see if you can advocate on your behalf to Ford. No nothing, just a snarky 'what do you expect me to do about it'? I guess if there is a risk that they won't have a nice payout for work they do, then well, sorry buddy, we don't care. I guess it doesn't matter if you've taken your car to them for work on multiple times before. Tough luck, bring it in an you'll or someone will pay out of the butt. First time, there is a risk that they might get a handsome payout, it's screw you, call Ford. So, I said, "Because I didn't report the problem with the replacement clutch soon enough, this is a well tough luck buddy moment." He said this is a Ford problem. I said, how is it just a Ford problem if you did the work on the replacement clutch and it became apparent that the work wasn't taking too well or lasting that long? I rolled back recently when I shifted my foot on the brake for a moment into another car. Now, it wasn't a high speed impact or anything, but it was still annoying. I told him you know if I were driving my other car, I wouldn't have had this circumstance. I said actually in most cars, I've not had this sort of issue. I said, even after your 'fix' I still had the problem, but I didn't address it soon enough. He was of course unmoved and why would he be? Apparently customers mean nothing to the service department unless they get a big fat payout. So, yeah, if you want service or someone to work with you, Paul Cerame isn't the place. If their service treats their customers like this, I can't see a situation in which I'd buy a car from them. Why so when there is a 'risk' that they wouldn't get a nice payout for work, they shut you down? If a dealership treats me right and takes into account the customer experience and customer concerns, I will be loyal to a fault. However, if they are. Sorry buddy, your tough luck, too bad about our work and it not working out well for you. Well, then I have no use for them and I will let anyone who cares know. So, Paul Cerame, consider me a lost customer forever. I probably will never buy another Ford Focus and I certainly will never consider you when looking at cars or considering where to get maintenance work done. Not only have you lost a customer now and in the future, but to potentially to anyone I have influence with they will be aware about how you treat customers in the service dept. Bommarito on the other hand knows how to treat it's customers.

Helpful, friendly service - jeff.mccreary

Service department was easy to access and the staff was helpful and friendly. The service department communicated very well with details. When work would start, assessment of problem, estimated cost to fix and when the vehicle would be ready.

Great service and never any issues - Harley107

I bought my Ford f150 at this dealership and was quite satisfied. This past summer bought a 2014 mustang convertible. Worked with Carl on this deal and felt that they done us good on this car.

Service Department was amazing. - trp06609

Service Department was amazing. They answered all my questions in a timely manner and I was able to schedule an appointment. Granted the appointment was a ways out but I called several other service departments and they were just as busy. Also, I understand this dealership has been here since 1925, must be doing something right.

My car and it's engine made it 17 miles before it overheated - I buy a lotta cars

After having the dealership replace my engine with a used, warrantied engine and Rick Ball Ford-Lincoln in Sedalia, MO said they would warranty the labor for my 2013 C-Max Energi. The car & I made it 17 miles out of town then the engine overheated. I asked them to come get me and my car. They told me to call a tow truck and get a hotel. I finally made it to my hotel almost THREE HOURS after I initially arrived at the dealership to take my car home. C'mon guys. You should have sent someone to pick me up and take me to a hotel or offer me a loner car when I asked. Instead Troy the service department manager just went home early. The general manager, Ryan Ball, told me he couldn't help since Troy wasn't there and wasn't answering his telephone to approve any help aside from paying for the tow truck. I thought his job as general manager was to take care of his customers. In perspective the date was 20/20/2018 please check the Sedalia, MO weather to see it was freezing rain that night and they just left me on the side of the road after spending well over $3,000.00 at their dealership on an engine they promised they would warranty all labor on. The next morning they made it to where my car won't overheat but the check engine light is on, service engine light is on, the car always thinks it's plugged in and takes about a minute or two of menu toggling to tell the computer it's not plugged in. When I called and told the general manager, Ryan Ball, that I expect him to pay for my hotel room in addition to the tow truck bill (which they already agreed to pay for) and fix the service engine/battery lights so I can know the car is safe to drive he told me his dealership is done working on the car. I was polite throughout the entire process which has me baffled why Ryan Ball would talk down to me and call me a liar. Even afterwards I simply let him know that I have written documentation that disproved his reason for calling me a liar and read him the two sentenced he was told about verbatim.
