Nice people but really low quality of work I bought a new car from this dealership in May 2014. I waited about 3 hours to talk to a finance person after agreeing to buy the car. I have had my c I bought a new car from this dealership in May 2014. I waited about 3 hours to talk to a finance person after agreeing to buy the car. I have had my car into the service department no fewer than 10 times for warranty repairs so far. I really like the car but the quality of work is quite poor. I am always given a ride via shuttle or a loaner vehicle which is nice and industry standard, I am sure. When my car is returned from service, it is always returned with the issue unresolved or something new they broke. I took my car in because the sync voice button would intermittently stop working. I was even able to demonstrate this to them. It was returned to me 3 times without resolution saying they had no idea how to resolve it and hopefully Ford would figure it out sometime. The last time I was told my cell phone is probably causing the problem and I should not connect my phone to the stereo (which is how the stereo is designed to be used). I asked them to fix the plate that lines up to the shift plate in the console because they were not flush. The fixed it but it looks like they did so by banging it with a screwdriver because it is covered in scuff marks and the plastic plate around the shift looks to have been pried up with screwdriver as well because it has a chip in it. I paid $1500 to have navigation installed as an add on from the accessories department. My car was returned with navigation but hybrid features disabled because the software was installed incorrectly. The plastic plate that covers the window switches on the driver side door was warped/not flush with the panel. They ordered a new one and replaced it. My car was returned with the switch warped in a different place and clearly not flush. No one reviewed the work with me to confirm it was performed correctly. Now I need to make another appointment to ask them to fix it again. This does not include numerous un-returned calls, missed commitments on getting back to me. Everyone has been kind and friendly but the poor quality of work and the number of times I have had to take a brand new car in is staggering. More

Ford Edge My 2008 Ford Edge suddenly wouldn't move forward. I had it towed to North Country Ford last Friday am. They diagnosed the issue on Friday afternoon, My 2008 Ford Edge suddenly wouldn't move forward. I had it towed to North Country Ford last Friday am. They diagnosed the issue on Friday afternoon, informed me that it was still under warranty, gave me a free rental car for the weekend and had it repaired on Monday. Dave and Denny could not have been more professional. I had purchased the car two years ago and really hadn't been back since, except for an occasional oil change - they have eared my loyalty and I will definitely be back from now on. This dealership gives great customer service. More

Recall service work I had a recall item on my vehicle and the this dealership took care of it. I also asked about some rust spots and a noise I was hearing while drivin I had a recall item on my vehicle and the this dealership took care of it. I also asked about some rust spots and a noise I was hearing while driving. Denny polished out the rusts spots and told me where could pick up the polish to finish any other spots. I couldn't believe it was that easy! Dave was very thorough in his explanation when asked what was all done. Oh I told the receptionist what I was there for and asked where I was supposed to go, what door I was supposed to go to, she looked at me dumbfounded and said to just walk over there and they'll tell you what to do. There are a lot of garage service doors there and for this being the fist time there I had no idea where to go. Over all - excellent place to go and I would highly recommend this dealership (just don't anticipate the receptionist to really help you out) More
