But, after getting home, I had no owners manual, never saw that before. Second key was not provided so a new one is $400 plus. OnStar module NOT working has to be replaced. Hours spent trying to figure stuff out with no manual. 800 number Ford provided to talk to a person is out of service. BAD just BAD

They do not respond to messages, do not take the buyer's
needs into consideration, and they make promises they can't/wont keep.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to notice those efforts and for leaving such an awesome review! If you have any additional needs or questions, we will be more than happy to assist you! Safe travels!

friction; however a business is defined not by the absence of problems, but by how its leadership responds when issues arise. The GSM, Kyle, stepped in and turned my experience around. He connected me with Justin (a knowledgeable, professional salesman), worked with me through a difficult situation, and helped reach a fair resolution. Moreover, he has stood by his word ever since.
The service department was also supportive throughout the process, specifically my advisor, Jennifer P. She provided updates, connected me with the correct level of management, and kept me in a loaner until everything was sorted out.
I now have a reliable vehicle titled in my name, which is a major accomplishment and provides much-needed stability for my family.
As a woman purchasing my first vehicle after a major life transition, I especially value this level of integrity in the automotive industry. Because of Kyle and Jennifer, Elder Ford has earned my trust, and I’ll be returning for future servicing and trades. I recommend them for anyone in the market or in need of servicing.

Justin and Zaire were an absolute pleasure to work with.
Very nice, explained things and treated me like family. The facility itself was clean, manager Kyle was super nice and they all greeted with smiles.

Elder Ford has now gotten my business for any new purchases and I will definately recommend them to others! It was hassle free, smooth going and was all in all quick proces and easy. Thank you to Zaire and Justin for being so kind, smiling, laughing and making the whole process of buying a vehicle a pleasure. You two really deserve an award!

The finance person and sales manager were very unethical and changed the price of the vehicle on the documents they tried to get me to sign. Had I not caught the increase, I would have financed $6,000 more than I had agreed to. Worst car experience I have ever had.

The Salesman never delivered on the promises made when I bought the Ranger. After several attempts, to get the Dash Cam that was promised, I finally gave up. Apparently Anthony Serrano no longer works for the company.

It's been three weeks since I signed the papers. I still don't have the papers. They said they were emailing to me. Nobody will call me back. I have a warranty issue. I need to get taken care of. Talk to my sales guy he said he'd call me back. He never called me back. Left a message with Finance who was in the middle of the deal promised they'd have just called me back. He hasn't called me back. I would like a phone call back to discuss some issues I have with my new purchase.
