I would honestly rate Tri-County dealerships zero starts if it was allowed on this site
I purchased my vehicle and the extended warranty from Tri-County on January 20th, and unfortunately, my experience with their service department has been frustrating and deeply disappointing.
My first mandatory service was on July 5th. The invoice stated that all fluids were topped off, but just three days later, on July 8th, my vehicle had to be towed back because there was no coolant. I was later told that they didn’t top it off because my vehicle uses blue coolant, and they only had green — something they failed to mention when I picked it up.
Even worse, I was told they couldn’t properly diagnose my vehicle because it was made by Ford, and they lacked the right equipment. I was without a vehicle for eight days, and at no point was I offered a loaner or rental.
When I picked my vehicle up on July 17th, I spoke with the service manager, who was dismissive and condescending, offering no real solution or acknowledgment of the inconvenience.
One week later, my check engine light came back on. When I called to schedule service again, I specifically requested a rental vehicle, which I was told would be noted. But when I dropped my car off on August 1st, there was no rental arranged, and no record of my request.
Finally, when I picked up my vehicle on August 2nd, I noticed multiple scratches on my trunk that were not there when I dropped it off. I take pride in maintaining my vehicle, and this added damage without any explanation or accountability is completely unacceptable.
Overall, my experience with Tri-County’s service department has been marked by poor communication, a lack of transparency, and a complete disregard for customer care. I would not recommend them based on this experience.
