Kevin Ford

Service department is a scam. I took my car in for a free oil change and they claimed I needed to replace my brand new battery as it was about to fail. I declined, and the next ti I took my car in for a free oil change and they claimed I needed to replace my brand new battery as it was about to fail. I declined, and the next time I took my car in for a free oil change the battery they said was failing previously was magically testing fine now. If you get oil changes here ALWAYS decline the maintenance they try and upsell you. My wife was duped when they said her rear brake pads were low and needed to be replaced. She agreed to have the brake pads replaced. When she picked up her car they billed her $700 for flushing the brake lines, and new pads and rotors More

First, I want to say that I have been a customer of Apple Ford for many years, decades even. My sons were little when they had the popcorn machine in the lobby. They always wanted to go to Apple Ford with Ford for many years, decades even. My sons were little when they had the popcorn machine in the lobby. They always wanted to go to Apple Ford with me whenever I planned to go. Over the years, my sons had grown up. They needed vehicles, too. So, again we have been Apple Ford customers for generations… well, mine and my sons’ generations. One of my sons recently had issues with his Ford Taurus SHO. He diligently researched YouTube videos, ran a FixD diagnostic, and even hired a professional mechanic to run a thorough diagnostic with advanced tools. He tried everything to get the vehicle working, but nothing resolved the issue. He bought a new batter, changed the spark plugs, and replaced the air filter. He bought a couple parts (Fuel Pump Relay Module, Direct Injection High Pressure Fuel Pump) from Apple Ford that cost him about $1,000. My son doesn’t make much money, but he was determined to fix his vehicle. He finally gave up and had it towed to Apple Ford. It took them a couple days, but they told him that 2 cylinders had low compression, and it would cost $10,000 to replace the engine block. Okay, so what are the options? Well, it cannot stay on the lot or Apple Ford would start charging storage fees. Okay, no biggie. He asked about trading it in on a used car off their lot. Afterall, the vehicle Blue Books around $16,000. Surely, subtracting the cost of a new engine ($10,000) would net approximately $6,000 for the good parts of the vehicle. Remember the parts he purchased from Apple Ford remain on the vehicle, and the original parts (which are likely still good) are also in the vehicle somewhere. The very best Apple Ford could do was give him $500 (Yes, five hundred) credit toward an overpriced user vehicle on the lot. Apple Ford mechanics cannot fix cars. They can replace parts. Find yourself a real mechanic elsewhere, and save some money doing it, too. More

Apple Ford Jul 6, 2022 ambientinsider Took us 6 months to locate the struts (none were in stock anywhere in the US), then took us 1 month to set up the appointment only to sit at the dealership. months to locate the struts (none were in stock anywhere in the US), then took us 1 month to set up the appointment only to sit at the dealership. The Service advisor said the service would take 4-6 hours. After the 6th hour, The van was never taken into the shop and no work was performed. I got my keys and left. This makes the 3rd time we've attempted to use Apple Ford, Columbia, Maryland in the hopes of having work done on our Van. This dealership/service center is off limits, permanently. More

Above and Beyond My car wasn't ready by closing time as they told me it would be, as it was a complicated job. I was angry since I had not planned being car less for a My car wasn't ready by closing time as they told me it would be, as it was a complicated job. I was angry since I had not planned being car less for another day and had no way home etc. Curtis Ford went back and got 2 technicians ( Ian being one of them) to agree to stay late and help finish my car that night! I waited an hour after they closed and finally got my car back. While I waited they made me feel comfortable with beverages/TV/music on. They even discounted me on the service prices due to the inconvenience. It was much appreciated, when they could have just sent me away for the night car less. Great customer service made up for the miscommunication! I will return here with future car repairs. More

Five stars is an understatement These two are unbeatable and memorable. Their presence while attending or conversing with you is unlike what you find in customer service anymore. Alt These two are unbeatable and memorable. Their presence while attending or conversing with you is unlike what you find in customer service anymore. Although I have not experienced any reasons for disappointment during any of my visits, sales, or phone calls, these two stand out and are impossible to overlook. Find a reason to have their attendance during your visit; you will be pleased. More

Needed new keys for my 2010 Taurus - and got them! Electronic keys are wonderful -- until you need a new one! But I knew I was in good hands the first time I spoke with Kevin and the parts guys (and I Electronic keys are wonderful -- until you need a new one! But I knew I was in good hands the first time I spoke with Kevin and the parts guys (and I apologize for not remembering their names). After the parts guys confirmed the keys were there to cut and program, they took the time to explain the process to me. Then Kevin arranged an appointment for a few hours later, and we were off and running, Everyone I dealt with was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly ready to get it right the first time. I could not be happier. I definitely will be back, and highly recommend the team there. We're a Ford family, so I am spreading the word. Y'ALL ROCK!! More
