Started with an unpleasant buying experience, felt rushed and ignored and not taken seriously when going to buy a truck from here. But we brushed it off because everyone has off days right? So maybe this salesman was wanting to leave or having a bad day. Okay, no worries. But then we needed to get the truck serviced. Made an appointment. Go on the day and time of appointment and the guy says 'it'll take the better part of the day', okay no problem, we understand. We call them at the very end of the day since we hadn't heard anything. The guy says 'well we don't have a diesel mechanic right now so we can't look at it and we're closed for the next 3 days and it's going to cost this much'. Why wouldn't he tell us that from the beginning? Glad we didn't sit at the place waiting. Okay, fine. Annoyed but we'll manage. Then two days after having been closed, still no word. We call them, 'we still haven't gotten to it yet but it'll probably cost this much now'. What was the point of the appointment and why was the price changing??? Frustrated at this point. The next day they call and say 'we found the problem but to look at it and diagnose the problem it's now going to cost this much and to fix it will be this much' (don't waste your money on their warranty, we knew that but felt pressured when we bought the truck, salesman doing his job). We're over it at this point. We pay the money for them to finally "look at it" and just get our truck out of there. We'll go to Hemborg Ford since we have much better experience with them. All of this to say, we won't be going back to this place to purchase a vehicle, nor will we recommend it to anyone we know. So disappointed. read more

Driver side door latch was broken, simple plastic replacement part. Dealer had the vehicle all day, we had to call to request status. Was told different stories. Dealer representative called and left message; they couldn't provide time & phone number called. Then the Service rep. went to a funeral and my vehicle fell through the cracks. Dealer stated they would need another day to evaluate the problem and then it would take an additional 3 days to order and receive the parts. Nothing was done to the vehicle. I stated that I was going to take the vehicle, they stated there would be a $100 service fee. I refused to pay given they couldn't tell me what was broken and the cost for the parts. I went online and found that the broken part was $75 and I ordered from another dealer. Once received I fixed the handle and it is working fine. read more

Need a good deal? Hit up my guy Ron. He made sure I got the best deal possible with the best warranties. Thanks Ron.

WORST experience ever ! I ordered the 21 F150 back to May and was delivered just yesterday. I thought I finally can have my truck, however, they asked me to pay MSRP and lie to me I was accept before order. The manager even threat me that everyone would love to buy MSRP or even mark up. Is this the way you talk to the customer who willing to wait for 4 months to get the car? We have prepared to pay higher price than usual because of the chip shortage. They thought it is seller's market now and won't give any dealer discount. And this is how they treat their customer ! read more

Went in and Purchased a 2023 Mustang, our salesman was Ron and he was GREAT! Thank you Ron. The only negative thing was Fritts had 3 add ons worth about $700 but of course they mark it up to about $2500. I know they make their money on these add ons but they don't even give you the option to decline them since they are supposedly already installed. We had to haggle to get those down in price but other than that they were good. Raceway Ford didn't have the add ons but they didn't have the exact Mustang we wanted. read more

Moved to Riverside and wanted to support my Local FORD dealer....... What a waste of time. Dont order a new truck or car here. You'll never get it!!!!! Lies Ow to look for a good dealer to order a F350 and a Bronco. read more

If you want to go there to get an oil change, don't! They take forever. I showed up at 8 this morning since on Saturdays it's a first come first serve. I was fifth in line. I told them I'd be waiting and I was told it'd take about 1 1/2 hours. It's been 2 hours and they told me another 40 minutes to finish. If I went to another place it's less than 30 minutes. They get down to business. At Fritts, they don't. They waste your time. So, don't go there unless you like wasting your time in their lounge. It's not worth it. read more

We recently purchased a 2022 Ford F250 from Danny Delfin at Fritts, with support from his manager Mike. We were originally scheduled to meet with a representative from their internet sales department. Danny greeted us when we arrived and we were a little hesitant when he said he'd be covering for Brittany. As we continued through the process, viewing some of the different options on the lot, we quickly became more comfortable with Danny and his easy, yet consultative approach. My wife and I both research extensively prior to making any major purchase so it's rare we meet a sales person that knows as much as we do. Despite trucks not being Danny's specialty, he knew quite a bit and was very helpful. We were pre-approved from our financial institution so the financing piece was fairly easy. I would definitely purchase again from Fritts and seek out Danny to help. read more

Bought for explorer and paid extra for the Xbond and used it when we got small paint chips and scratches on black paint and they did not honor it. Although third party service I wouldn't recommend it since doesn't cover road hazard issues. Just environmental. Explorer is good except recall on warpped luggage racks and the dealerships never have them in stock or care to call or help us get them replaced as it's been over a year now. Wish they had better service. read more

Best customer service! Highly highly recommended coming here for your next car! As soon as we arrived we were greeted (which was great because we saw a listing online we wanted ) by a very friendly Austin, who helped us graciously locate, test drive and inspect the car we had in mind! And through out our car buying experience! Took his time never rushed up or made us feel like our money wasn't going to get us a car that day. Considering we are "younger". So we appriciate that a lot! We also encountered Nick K. off referral to help us with our contract, who also was amazing at what he does! He helped make the process painless! And our last encounter was with Ray! He was just as friendly and helpful as the others and very efficient and organized with all the papers, while explaining it all to us! Drove off the lot probably within 4? Hours. Which by dealership hours is pretty fast! Will be returning in the future for a new car which that time comes and telling family/friends who they need to go see! Thank you! read more

Fritts Ford - 2019 mustang - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

I'll never buy a Ford again!! And if you're reading this, you shouldn't either. The sales process should always be great, they're trying to get your money... duh! We bought a brand new 2016 Ford Explorer Ecosport and we've have nothing but issues with it. First, their service department takes DAYS to just LOOK at it. They don't offer loaner vehicles even when you're still under warranty and the repair isn't a normal service. Now, we are about 12k miles over our warranty (how convenient!) and they're telling us we need a new transmission ($5,800 in case you're wondering). On a 3 year old car, under 90k miles... I still haven't paid off the damn thing! I vow to never purchase a Ford car again, this was my first and will be my last. I'll quickly go back to a Honda or Toyota where I know I can easily get to 300k with nothing but regular service and tires. Found On Road Dead is pretty accurate for my experience. read more

When I shop for a vehicle, it's not just the vehicle I look at. Every one is smiles when they think/want you to buy. But a dealership is much more to me than that. The service department and the parts department are equally as important. I bought a nice truck from Fritz, and the salesman Danny D. Was amazing! Three days ago I got a flat and had it changed. I brought the tire to Fritz's service department. The look less then enthused to even come and see what you want. You have to get out of your vehicle knock on their window. They're all talking to one another and finally to get somebody that will come out and see what you need. Explain to the service advisor about the tire that was in the bed of the truck and then I need it fixed and put back on the truck and if they would be so kind to put all the stuff back behind the backseat, including the jack and all the equipment we used to get the tire changed to begin with. 2 1/2 hours later after much probe to find out where is my truck at what's taking so long I get charged $20 and I get on the truck and see that they didn't put it in well. The guy that help me had gone to lunch. The guy that fixed the truck had gone to lunch and there was nobody else to help me put the jack in, if you're buying a car like I do how the service department is, I would think about looking elsewhere other than Fritz Ford. I'm very disappointed to say the least and now I can't get the other things done that I need to do because I had to sit there and wait for them to fix a simple tire. read more

Stay away from the service department. I dealt with Greg and brought in my truck with complaints of a rough ride. I asked him to check the 4-wheel drive or determine what was wrong. The rough ride began abruptly. I was told it was the tires which they replaced for over $2,000. I picked it up and it was still running rough and there was a check engine light on. I called and they said they noticed the engine light, but did not mention it to me or diagnose why the light was on. I asked why, and Greg said he normally would not mention this or check for an additional problem unless specifically asked to. Really? I asked that they diagnosed the entire problem, and they charge me over $2,000, change the tires (which could have been done less expensively elsewhere) and leave the truck running roughly. Even just changing the tires took two days. He says he has been doing his job for 8 years and knows what he is doing. I asked to speak with someone else and he said he is the only one to go to for repairs. Beware. read more

Went in to Fritts this weekend after inquiring about a truck online. Guy named Nick Arfman greets me and literally in 2 and a half ours I was out with a brand new truck. My credit was a lot worse than what I thought it was, but he and his boss made the deal and still kept me within my payment range. First time Ford owner but these guys made it to where I will consider Ford again! Thanks Nick. You're the man!! read more

Fritts Ford - 2020 Ford Ranger XLT - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

READ THIS BEFORE TAKING YOUR VEHICLE TO FRITTS News Flash: QUICK LANE is not quick, it's some cruel joke. I've got an idea, if I show up 2 days in a row, and by 730AM you already have a 2-3 hour wait time for an oil change, YOU NEED TO HIRE MORE TECHS. I've got another idea, how about on that second visit you make some accommodations, how many of those "others" in front of me are waiting? Puzzles me when I only see two people in the waiting room at 730am but ALLLLLLL these cars are in front of me, hmmm? It's particularly discouraging when you tell these folks that you work nights and you do everything you can to get it there in a timely fashion. I have a finite window of opportunity because I have kids I have to get from school before I go out to work. It shouldn't ever be a 3 hour wait for an oil change. This really shouldn't come as a surprise to me as this isn't the first time I've been disappointed by the level of service I've received at the quick lane and Fritts large service dept... I was sold "Extra" load tires for my work vehicle and they put "Standard" load tires on. I found out when one of them blew out. Oh, and I drive people around in a ride-share capacity... I brought my car in for a front end noise it was making, it took them 3 days to tell me there wasn't anything wrong with it and the notes said the tech just reset the onboard computer. I drove it off the lot and the noise was still there. I blew them up in the comments portion of my survey and to my surprise someone called. I brought it back in and I took the service manager for a ride and before I could hit the second roundabout he had it diagnosed as a bearing issue in the front end, 30 seconds is all that took... when I was having trouble with the AC last year I told them that I needed my Freon topped off. I had a service rep tell me that they don't top off Freon because the units are sealed and the only reason you'd need more Freon is because their was something wrong with your unit. 2 days later they gave me the car back and said there wasn't anything wrong, but they CHARGED me to, get this, top off the AC!!! It cooled for that one ride home, and then died. After I brought it back, THIS time they replaced the whole thing... but you said nothing was wrong and charged me for it? I got a free oil change out of that one... Mark knows me by name and face, I called him David Puddy once in a online survey and I got an immediate call back. Well Mark, I tried to give you guys a second chance, and a third, and a 4th. We're done here... read more

We were greeted by Danny D who was very professional and not too pushy. My wife and I knew which two vehicles we wanted to test drive. He helped us and made buying our Ford Flex very easy. Thank you Fritts Ford read more

I just bought a CPO Explorer. The SUV was great. Sales staff was nice and easy easy to work with. The pricing and negotiation was fair. We both moved and found a happy price. The reception ladies where very nice and very helpful. Having great supporting staff really helps. Now finance, wow all I can say these people are GREAT. No hard push on stuff that was not needed. They explained everything slowly and clearly and wrote down everything. This was one of the best parts of my time. I will buy again for sure. This place is clean and folks are friendly. The managers are also not pushy. Everyone just want to help get what we needed, wanted, and could afford. read more

We have brought our vehicles to be serviced by them on multiple occasions. Every time we go, they make it seem like an inconvenience to be there. The quick lane front staff is very rude, and never seem to know what is going on. They seem to have our cars for a longer period of time than necessary, and always seem to find a "new problem" every time our vehicles are there. It all seems very fishy. After this last time, we will no longer be using their services. For the Riverside area, Raceway Ford has more helpful staff and reliable service. read more

THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE QUICKLANE part of this dealership! I waited almost 4 hours for a simple oil change on my Ford fusion! Usually go to Raceway Ford but I HAD to do it here today due to buying my lease out and needing an inspection. PLEASE IF YOU VALUE YOUR TIME DO NOT GET SERVICE HERE! read more

Gooood morning to all your service customers. I bought myself a NEW car and was up for the first car inspection after 3000miles. First; making an appointment with the service department is tough. They redirected me 3 times before the finally hang up (?) on me. Second time I told them that I am not willing to play the game again. So, the dialed me through to the service department only for the lady to tell me that the best chance of coming in and not waiting too long is early morning 7am. Well, thanks, not thanks. I came in this Friday morning 7 am only to find a huge waiting line of 15 cars in front of me! It took me 25 minutes only to speak with the service guy. So, I told him that I haven't any coffee because it was so early in the morning. He said I should just get up the the reception and ask for a coupon in order to get a free coffee out of the vending machine. Guess what? The receptionist didn't showed up before 8am (which is probably her starting time). So, I ended up buying my own coffee and got a estimate waiting time of 2 hours. Wow! As a customer I do not feel appreciated. Before I owned a Ford I was driving a JEEP. Guess what? Coffee and fresh baked cookies were always available in the customer launch. Very very disappointing. I'll check out other locactions. Update: this simple inspection with one simple repair was 3,5 hours long! read more

Fritts Ford - Poor craftsmanship - Auto Repair Near Me - Riverside, California

Recieved a complimentary 1st oil change and called for an appointment. I was told we could wait with an appointment it shouldn't take long. When we arrived we were informed of a two hour wait because all the cars dropped off were in front of us and that an appointment didn't mean the mechanic would be waiting for us. We are 70's an do not wish to sit 2 hours in a waiting area with a covid pandemic going on. read more

Dwayne president, Scott Oakes, Mike M. and Jordan Hundley all did a very professional and courteous job setting up the sale of a 2019 Ford fusion SEL Hybrid.

Poor customer service. Lack of communication. Had my car for 7 days (nov 27th to dec 3rd) to do a recall, replace defective back up camera, and some other issues. Some issues weren't even fixed (my drivers side window sounded like it was shaking) they couldn't figure out why... (They gave me a rental 5 days later after I had a meltdown over the phone with them, I'm a mother of 4 kids, I needed a car) then yesterday Jan 31st 2021 while I was driving, my side keypad panel popped off and broke and the shaking stopped. I called corporate today Feb 1st, 2021 and made a formal complaint (corporate offered to help cover cost if my warranty doesn't cover the panel) so thank you for that Corporate Ford. Anyway, So if you're looking for good service, don't come here. They told me to call my warranty co and see if the part is covered. I shouldn't have to call my extended warranty company to find out what's covered and what's not. I don't know the part numbers etc,. I feel like I have to do some of the service managers job. read more

So I went to check out used car at Fritts Ford last night, well should I say went to Fritts to waste my time!!! So we liked 2018 Ford edge, since it's a 2018 model it has temp plate on it. On car guru it showed this vehicle is $36,000, however at the dealership they are asking close to $50,000. So I asked try to give us the best deal. Salesman went to the managers office and came out with a great deal of (car guru's cost). What threw me off that it clearly states on the sticker that the vehicle has 86 miles, but when the salesman brought the negotiation paper out, it says 252 miles. That's when I knew it, it's not going to work out since they're clearly lying and I even showed them car gurus sticker price. So we wanted to check out another vehicle, and it has sticker price of $23,000, and I showed him listing from AVIS car sales. AVIS is offering same Edge with lower mileage for $20,000 l. Salesman said even if we were to lower the price, it still going to be $26,000 with tax and fees. That's when I did the math and told him even if you were to lower the price on this vehicle to $20,000, out the door I shouldn't be paying more than $23,000. Salesman couldn't really defend my fact and decided to bump up the price to $26,000 out the door, and I give up and walked away with nothing. In my theory I always thought dealership price match, because in the past every vehicle I bought from dealerships, they've always price matched, better yet they've beat those prices. In conclusion, I'm not going back to Fritts. Update******* Internet Sales Manager FRANK CASTELLON, was a great help. He called us back and took care of the us. He matched the vehicle prices, give us a great deal on extended warranty, matter of fact he showed us few other vehicles that was potentially in our price range. read more

Nick worked with me the intire day via phone so when the time came we just went in viewed the car and made the purchase. And we are so grateful for Nick going up to bat for us!

Danny Delfin was the sales associate that assisted me in my car search. He was a modality of kindness and information. I felt Danny was respectful of my budget and extrapolated vehicle options from our conversation that surpassed my expectations. He was great. My only negative experience occurred when I met with finance. Once I repeatedly declined the additional warranty and Gap insurance I was pushed out quickly. The gentlemen did not inform me of who I'll be making my loan payments to, as well as the lengthy contracts I was endorsing. I will say he was kind and friendly. read more

STOP!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T DO IT! DRIVE PASS AND FIND ANOTHER DEALERSHIP!!! DON'T BRING YOUR VEHICLE TO THIS LOCATION FOR ANY KIND OF SERVICE!!!! THEY DON'T STAND BEHIND THEIR'S & OR FORD'S GUARANTEE!!!!!! this review is only for the service department. we purchased a Ford Ranger , from another dealership, but had all our services through Fritts. we originally started coming here to service to repair a flat tire & eventually ordering a set of tires because we really liked the tech named Ingrid... she no longer works here... So we continue with the usual maintenance, oil change, brakes until they informed us our engine had blown up. We agree to have it replaced with a brand new factory built engine, with a solid factory WARRANTY! LESS than a year later , it blows up. no clue why, it just happens sometimes they say.... what?? replace ANOTHER one #2 , brand new factory built engine. meanwhile they don't even offer us a loaner or help in a rental cost while my truck again, takes weeks to repair! spent hundreds $$$$ on rentals. their excuse this time was...... wait for it!......... We couldn't provide proof of EACH & EVERY OIL CHANGE AT 3k miles! because we went to other oil changing locations and misplaced a couple of the receipts. .... WTH! WARRANTY never had a clause , demanding all services must be made here! . behind my back to get the truck running my husband agrees to their strong arming him out of his 100% WARRANTY!!!! and again pay aditional $2k , more! WTH!!!! what happened to ford's, backs all their factory built engines 100%!?!!! so this time we bring each and every little minut issues to their service department emeditly. we tell them after the first month we believe it's burning too much oil.... they say it's the brand new engine settling in? what! i'm not a tech , but wth!? settling in, like a house guest, a grumpy neighbor? wth? we continue taking to them religiously for all the services. guess what.... engine #2 blows!! no explanation, no reason, no answers, it just blows! again we're at their mercy of replacing the BRAND NEW FORD factory built engine... now needs #3 . Again hundreds of $$$$ on a replacement RENTAL. no offers from any tech , manager to help out a consumer with a rental! just... we'll call you when it's done. guess what... they called before the 3 week marker.. but not to say it's ready to be picked up.... nope, we want another THOUSAND for other issues we found.. a clutch & other little items! ! WTH!!!!! We had NO other issues before the engine blew!! AGAIN being slammed up against the wall , strong armed, duped, blind sided, smacked in the face with another out of pocket cost, all under them having possession of my vehicle for weeks !! I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT TRUST THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! their so called highly certified service department, has cost me thousands! if you VALUE YOUR MONEY , and time DON'T bring your vehicle to this location for any kind of service! ALL VERY TRUE AND ACCURATE STORY! I GUARANTEE IT 1,0000,000 % !!!!!! read more

Back in October I submitted my number on TrueCar.com to get the truecar value of Ford Fusion Energi. I ended up buying the car from Villa Ford- who was amazing. Since the day I submitted my number, Fritz Ford has been calling my phone obsessively. I blocked their number back in November because I was getting irritated. Just yesterday I was going through my phone and noticed that I had a little file in it that keeps the voice mails I receive from blocked numbers. HOLY COW, I have an average of 1 voicemail from Ricky at Fritts ford two times per week!!! Every three to four days this month, I have a voicemail from him! Why on earth would he be leaving me this many voicemails? Dear Frittz Ford, Based of off this one super obsessive and creepy sales person, I will never step foot on your car lot. Please understand that calling someone this excessively is the equivalent to shoving religion or political views down someones throat, and I or any other human will likely find it offensive and creepy. This is not good business. Sincerely, The once potential costumer that you have officially lost with NO CHANCE of ever gaining her back. read more

I recently went Fritts Ford and purchased a new 2018 Ford Escape. Showing up at the dealership I was greeted warmly. I dealt with Casey O'Shann. I wasn't sure which vehicle I wanted. So first he showed me some cars. I sat in a couple and decided I'd like to see the EcoMax and the Escape. I drove both and really liked the feel of the Escape most. Then we went to office and the process of financing went smoothly. By lunch time I drove off the lookout with my new Ford Escape. It was a great decision top GO To Fritts Ford. read more

The service department is absolutely terrible. Very bad customer service. They refuse to fix my car, and I have taken it several times. They do not even look at the car unless you leave it at least three days or more. They do not supply you with a rental, and after every visit teh car is worse off. I will never buy a ford again. It has not even been a year with the car and the car has been to the service department way too much. All the employees that work there are rude and unhelpful. read more

I was very pleased with my recent experience with Fritts Ford. I had my car towed here late at night, since I didn't know where else to have it towed to. I was a little hesitant about paying "dealer prices" for car repairs but I figured I'd roll the dice. Terry is the person who helped me, she was very communicative and friendly. I had to stop by to pick some stuff up out of my car while it was here, everyone was very helpful, and made sure I was able to retrieve what I needed in a timely matter. The customer service she provides is great, I won't hesitate to bring my car back here. read more
