    The warnings I began to receive after literally taking my car in for a routine oil change.

    I'll start by saying that my Salesman, JZ, was awesome. 5 stars for him. I have been having issues with my car since October, 2024 after taking it in for a routine oil change. On October 21st; 3 days after the oil change, my car began to overheat and I received warnings that the engine coolant was over temperature and the engine had overheated. I was unable to drive the car and had to get it towed the next day. I was told by my service provider, Allan, that there was an issue with the filter and that it needed to be replaced. There were no loaners available at Avis Ford, so they arranged for me to get a rental car from a nearby rental place. On Monday October 28th, the service was supposedly complete and I was able to pick up my car on October 30th. On November 1st, my car shut down again. I received notifications via the dashboard and app stating the exact same issue: Engine Coolant Over Temperature. I waited a few hours for Allan to confirm whether or not there would be a rental for me to pick up when I dropped off the car, which there was not. I had to wait until Monday, November 4th to have the car towed and to be able to pick up a rental from the dealership. On the 4th, I was notified that the engine needed to be replaced on my car because the "antifreeze and oil are mixing inside the engine and leaking out the side of the engine block". This seems very odd as I had never experienced any type of issue with the car ever before October. The car is only 3 years old, needing the engine to be replaced leads me to believe that whoever serviced my car during the initial oil change did something incorrectly which caused a series of destruction to the car. It took over a month for the engine to be replaced. I was notified on December 13th in the afternoon that it was ready for pickup. Being that I was at work and the dealership is closed on the weekends, I was not able to pick it up until December 17th. I literally had the car back for 4 days before it once again began to break down. As I was driving on the highway on December 21st (Saturday), I began to hear a loud scraping noise. I pulled over and underneath my car, the shield or a very large part of the car was literally falling out. I have photos of everything. I had to pull over in a location I was very unfamiliar with to once again, request a tow as this issue is extremely dangerous and the car was unable to be driven. I called the dealership to speak with Allan first thing on Monday morning to let him know the car was at the dealership and I texted him photos of the damage. Allan was EXTREMELY rude and condescending, and completely dismissive. He basically told me that I was overreacting for having the car towed, and that it was fine to be driven although the shield was literally scraping on the cement and falling out. He told me that "people drive their cars like that all the time". We are in Michigan, and have been experiencing inclement weather consisting of snow and black ice on the roads. I told him that I did not feel comfortable driving the car in these winter weather conditions with it falling apart, and he told me that was "my choice" and gave me extreme push back on registering it to be serviced. I asked to speak with a manager and that's when he finally said he would look into it. He sent me a text message saying that he spoke to Grace, not sure who that is, and that they would either have my car fixed by EOD or provide me with a rental car until it could be fixed. In the meantime, my dad went to the dealership to drop off the key as I did not feel comfortable leaving it in the car while it was stranded and waiting to be towed. The wait time was over 3 hours for the tow and I was unfamiliar with the location, so I did not leave the key out of caution. They "fixed" the issue the same day and I have been back in the car since that day, December 23rd. The car is jumpy and I would not be surprised if another issue arises before I turn it in. I do not understand how every time I picked up my car from being serviced at Avis Ford, I received it back in a worse condition than it was in before and with a new issue that is even greater than what it was originally in service for. The car was towed three times since October. The way I was spoken to by Allan was unacceptable, he acted as if I was a nuisance to him and as if I was inconveniencing him when I am the one who has been inconvenienced and placed in dangerous situations multiple times due to the neglect of the technicians at Avis Ford who carelessly worked on my car. The service team and technicians were neglectful which caused me several major issues in the long run. I am extremely disappointed in the service I've received at Avis Ford and quite honestly believe the service team and technicians need to be investigated.

    Giving this a generous 3/5 stars…read more I'm hoping that lessons were learned after all the issues we had using our credit union for the car loan. I've never had such a hard time getting a car in the past. In the end, we got it done and my husband got the car he wanted. Personally, I did NOT like at all how my husband was spoken to on the phone. It was very very disrespectful but we wanted the car so we just took the rude communication. We were scrambling to make this work but being rude doesn't help ever. Sometimes when my husband asked a question and the immediate response was one thing (such as an abrupt "no way."). When he asked a clarifying question and they double checked, they would realize they were wrong and then give the correct info. When we were in person, everyone was fairly friendly. The boss did occasionally speak to us on the phone and he was very respectful and good. The main dealership was clean and the signing of documents was smooth. The person who helped with the paperwork was nice (which was appreciated because I was very upset about the events leading up to this). I feel like communication should have been much better. We did end up getting the car and my husband really likes it. We learned from this experience and hope they did too.

    I'm not sure what happened but the service here has changed drastically and is not worth the time…read moreor money. I own a Lincoln MKZ that I purchased from another dealer of a competing brand but decided to come here because it was close and my family went here in the past. All Lincoln dealers promise a top tier experience, but you pay for something that could be done better at a Jiffy Lube or a neighborhood garage. I paid to have an oil change, tire rotation, and 60K mile service which includes a fuel additive, but left not even confident in the oil change. The service department opens at 8, I arrived and checked in at 8:30, and left at 10. The dealership was empty when I arrived with only one person before me but when I left it was crowded. My service report noted that I needed new tires and brakes were good for the moment but that would be required soon, and that I needed a new lever for the hood of my car. I specifically requested with my service advisor that my air filter be changed because it was old (and aftermarket), when I received my car and confirmed, my advisor said it wasn't changed because the technician said it was still good. He then proceeded to try to sell me a full set of tires and emphasized that I received a car wash. It was lightly snowing that morning, so the wash wasn't really urgent or necessary. I told him that I would be back for the tires. I lastly asked him if going forward if it were possible for me to bank my Lincoln Rewards points instead of using them on every visit, the advisor decided to explain to me how earning rewards worked and how he decided to just use them at every visit. I got in my car, and the sticker from my last oil change was stuck to the headrest of the passenger seat - stickers are a no-no on leather seats. I went home and checked my dipstick; there was fresh oil, however, my air filter was filthy. I removed it, and dust came out and then tapped it in the wall and more dust and leaves shook out of it. All of my fluids were low and near empty. I had to add washer fluid, coolant, and brake fluid to my car. I looked, and my tires were not rotated - I noticed this because one of my tires was a newer tire and it had not moved from its original location. I also had to add air to my tires as none of them had the same air pressure, two of the tires were under inflated and two were over inflated. The newer tire was missing the cap for the stem. I went to another Lincoln dealer and had the lever for my hood replaced, for less than half of what Star Lincoln quoted me. My air filter was actually changed - the dealer was puzzled as to why it has not been done earlier. Needless to say, I won't be back, not even for the tires, because why pay for someone to waste your money for two hours and to smile in your face while lying and not doing as you graciously ask and pay for? And why pay for something that you can't guarantee you will receive? I don't volunteer to waste money. Luxurious experiences require luxurious payments, but fleecing is not luxury. I'd rather not have that done at all.

One was so COMPLETELY BALD that the steel belts were visible! This was not disclosed in their listing. Sales guy is like well you can drive it through the lot etc making a bunch of excuses for the situation and then was like oh you'll just need to get new tires. Like it wasn't a big deal?? And then does the pressure thing saying some other mystery buyer wants it? Then he points to their NEW inventory and says something like I'd love to sell you one of those, they all have brand new tires. I was there to see a reliable used TOYOTA - definitely NOT a new GM product. Also how can you offer a vehicle for sale that isn't even safe to go out on the road for a simple test drive? You can't test the suspension, the performance etc if you can only take it through a parking lot. There's no way you could even drive it home. Extremely irresponsible. I don't know how this is even legal - to offer a car that is NOT road safe. What a joke.

I just needed to find a Buick dealer I could trust. Only 1 out of the 3 others I have tried for oil changes or new tires gave me a problem, the other 2 are not close. In this time of Covid-19, they can't give a loaner or give a ride home, so I tried this one. Check engine light was on the the code said cam shaft sensor and that could be bad. When I called to talk to a service rep, I was able to. Instead of trying to scare a woman, they listened and suggested that it could just be a misfiring plug. Just clear the code and see if it comes back. I did twice more and the second time made an appointment. I also had them check the battery and the brakes since the car is 5 years old. I had a use Uber to get home and take a day off. Mid day I checked and the sensor needed replaced and so did the battery but not the brakes. Honest showed. I had a coupon from their website and the service representative told me if that didn't work come and see her. I did have to take 2 hours off the next day since it took to the end of the day. Coupon worked and quickly got my car. That is when the only problem happened. When I turned on the car, the radio came on loud with a very political station that I would NEVER EVER THINK to listen to. Someone must didn't like my social justice bumper stickers. Also the storage between the seats had been pulled out, passenger seat storage gone thru, and what had been the bad sensor throw into storage under radio. When I called to let them know what happened, the service rep was so upset that happened and told me she would have the general manager call me. He did and listened to what happened. He promised to find out who did that. He even remembered my bumper stickers so you know he walks the shop checking on the repairs. Politics have poisoned our society too much in the last 10 years. I will not let the last thing stop me from coming back. I just wish they had Saturday oil changes or getting tires.

I took the 10 AM appointment and when I got there, they told me it would be about 1.5 hours because they were really busy with other vehicles. I said, "Okay, but I have an appointment." They said sorry we are busy. I ended up sitting there until 11:20, almost an hour an half after my appointment, with my one year old son, for them to tell me their computers weren't working and they wouldn't be able to service my vehicle. Wow. I kindly shared my experience and feedback before I left. My feedback: *Don't set the expectation to your customers with appointment times. They don't exist there. You're better off saying first come, first serve basis. *Offer to call me when the computers are working again and fit me in, anytime! Any day! Even if it's next month! You didn't solve the brake recall issue. You didn't make and effort to get me back in your building. You simply gave me my keys and sent me on my way. (After you shared how safe it was to get this brake recall fixed). I was offered a car wash in the future but not my brakes to be repaired. *Don't tell me that my car will be finished in 20 minutes when you didn't even start on it yet. *I'm in the appointment business. I value people's time. I take pride on a smooth running schedule. Have the common courtesy to tell me on the phone that it will be difficult to get you in today and we are running behind schedule. That's all. Be realistic. You have people that only sit next to the phones there. Have that person that only sits next to the phone to call the customer that's on their way for their appointment. They kindly offered a shuttle ride ( I live 2 miles away). When the shuttle got there 40 minutes later, they said you can take it or wait 20 minutes for your vehicle recall to be resolved. I said thank you very much but we will wait since it's almost finished and I appreciate your time. They hadn't even started on it. I sat there in front of my car for another 30 minutes. Just be straight with me. As I sat there for an hour and half, smiling at everyone walking by, I viewed the customers, employees, and service. Everyone was so unhappy or complaining. It was unsatisfactory. The department needs a refresh seminar on customer care, timing, and basic efficiency skills. So now I'm back at square one. Awesome.
