Rear differential.

My F150 FX4 had an issue with the front brakes. I took it to the service department, told them the right front caliper was locking up on occasion, even was smoking one time. They diagnosed it and told me I need all new pads and rotors, front and rear. I said wait the problem is with the front locking up and there were new calipers and rotors put on 20k miles ago. So NO, that's not the issue. Even had to go by there to look and the truck and explain it to them. They think they figured it out as failed brake line that was not replaced when the calipers were replaced previously from them both locking up. We will see in time pulling the boat. Also the truck needed a rear diff pinion seal. I asked them to replace the seal and change the fluid in the diff. They then proceeded to charge me for 4 units of oil and sealant. Well they never removed the differential cover. So no sealant was used and the diff only holds 2.6 units of oil. Now they claimed they can pump out diff gear oil through the fill hole. Now I have changed diff oil in my life and always remove the diff cover. Provided pics of the rear diff, you can see the cover nor bolts were touched. So if you know anything about cars, READ the bill before paying it!! Probably will never use Jim Hudson Ford again.

Marijuana in the driver's front window gasket

Jim Hudson Ford sold us a certified pre-owned Expedition that had marijuana in it. We bought the vehicle on a cloudy day and it smelled fine. We got the vehicle home and, after it sat in the sun with the doors closed, the smell of marijuana became overwhelming. Upon further inspection, we found residual bits of marijuana leaf in the glove compartment and on the dashboard. We took the Expedition back to Jim Hudson to get it cleaned again, and they did. In the meantime, they gave us an Explorer to drive that smelled like cigarettes. We were just grateful to have a vehicle so we appreciated the Explorer regardless. We got the Expedition back and it smelled like they had cleaned it... after it sat in the sun, however, the smell returned... We searched the vehicle and more marijuana was found in the window gaskets. After this, we decided we had spent too much money on the vehicle to have to keep fighting this problem. Also, the smell was so strong that we were concerned with it affecting our children and/or our professions. We met with Jim Hudson Ford and decided it would be best to just sell it back to them. Too much time had elapsed (20 to 30 days) for us to get our trade in back, so they would have had to sell it back to us. The sale of our vehicle would not have been even, and we would have lost money on it and then have to resell it again. All-in-all, we lost close to $10k on our trade-in and left Jim Hudson Ford with no vehicle. I don't care about red tape or sales rules... when you sell a vehicle with an illegal substance in it, you should at least allow the customer to break even on departure. That did not happen​, and we went elsewhere. Maybe this is isolated (the spare Explorer suggests that it isn't) but we had a bad experience

How much does an oil change cost?

Looking for a good Ford dealer that can change the Oil changed. Got a 2019 Ford F3 50 brand new at Lugoff Ford and carried it back to them to get the oil changed and was very dissatisfied with their service?

Jim Hudson in Lexington. I take my F-150 and Explorer there. They've been good.

***BUYER BEWARE*** I purchased a golf cart and specifically asked if the batteries were new. I was…read moretold everything on the cart was "re-done" and new. I immediately had problems and contacted them. They just kept telling me other things I needed to buy. Finally, feeling desperate, I called the manufacturer of the batteries and they told me how to find the date stamp. Turns out, the batteries I was told were "new" were five years old and had no life left in them when I purchased them. I spoke to the owner, Kevin Stillinger, (respectfully giving him the opportunity to "right this wrong") and he refused unless I paid $150 for him to pick up the cart, another $150 to bring it back and then pay for whatever they diagnose the problem to be. I have opened a complaint with the South Carolina Better Business Bureau for unethical business dealings. Palmetto Kustom Kartz saw me as an "easy target" because I am a woman, they lied to me about the batteries, and didn't like that I called the manufacturer to find out the truth. This business practices fraudulent dealings and refuses to stand by their employees word. #CORRUPT.

I had such a great experience today buying a car for the first time. I found a 2014 Corolla online…read morefor an amazing price that was a manager special. I showed up after right the dealership opened and was greeted by Baron. He was extremely friendly and funny and put no pressure on me to buy anything other than what I was looking at. He made the trade in process painless. The appraiser looked over my car and had a number for us while I was test driving the new car. The finance manager, Jason, was great. He and my husband have similar hobbies to him so it made for a great ice breaker and made an otherwise tense process anything but. I was out in a little over 2 hours.

I took my vehicle to DSN for evaluation of several lights that had come on in my vehicle. We were…read moretold to bring the vehicle in at 8 am July 14th and they would run diagnostics on the vehicle and let us know the issue. We had already showed them which lights were going on and off along with a speedometer issue, and giving all of the fault codes showing. We were told it would take a few hours and they would let us know. We called at 430pm that day to see what they decided was wrong with the vehicle. We were told that no one had looked at it yet, that it would be the next day instead. On July 15 we were called and told that the issue was sensors. These are the same sensors they had told us a year ago were an issue with a different set of codes and light combination. We had already replaced those sensors. We did not have DSN replace them because they wanted $1300 for parts and labor that we could have done for less than $500. We told them the sensors had already been replaced and that was not the issue. They stated the sensors had gone bad and that they needed to be replaced. We finally agreed to let them replace the sensors, but they then let us know they had to order the parts and it would be at least the 16th before my vehicle would be ready. Late the afternoon of the 16th we received a call to let us know that the sensors had been replaced, but the lights were still coming on. Now they believed the problem to be ABS actuator that needed to be replaced and parts and labor would be at least $1400. They already had us for sensor replacement that had not been needed for $1300. So now they are wanting $2700 to repair the vehicle and they can't guarantee it will be fixed. After much discussion we did finally get them to admit that the sensors had been fine. That one had a lower voltage than usual but that they had not been the problem. However they would not put our original ones back on and that we still owed them for the $1300 unnecessary repair they had already completed. They said they would have to order the other part that was needed and it would be at least 3-5 business days before that part would be received and it was a refurbished part because Nissan no longer makes that part. They were told to put my vehicle back together and I would come and pick it up on Friday morning. On Friday morning I argued again that I should not have to pay for a repair that wasn't necessary, but I wasn't allowed to have my vehicle back until the bill was repaid and they would give me a $150 discount. This discount basically covered the taxes and credit card fees that they pass on to the customer when you pay with your card. I paid the bill so I could have my vehicle back. I did not get the original parts back, I can't even confirm that they actually replaced the sensors that they say they did. I did however order the exact same part that they told me needed to be replaced for $350 and we replaced it ourselves. Magically all the lights are gone, all the codes are cleared and the vehicle is working as it should. So no I would never recommend DSN to anyone. I am out over $1300 for repairs I am not sure they did, can not prove they did, but they did admit were not needed.

I usually wait longer, didn't mind so I thought that was quick. When I went to pay I was told my total was $101 & change. I had gotten a mailer, NOT a coupon from Abbotts days before & brought it with me. it said among other discounts, oil change for synthetic oil was $54.95. it also noted that oil change included tire rotation & multi point vehicle inspection. I showed them the mailer & she said she would adjust the price. she then told me that they didn't do the tire rotation. I looked surprised since I always had it done before with oil changes. The young man behind the counter said "there's no charge for tire rotation so you weren't charged for it, it's included". I replied "but you didn't do it". The woman behind the counter said that she could have someone bring my car back to do the tire rotation. I told her no, that's ok. I was annoyed at this point. I was going to initially be charged $101 & change for oil change but no tire rotation. When I got in my car to leave I noticed my "info screen " that usually showed the speedometer, was left on screen where it showed input for next service. I started changing the screen back to where it should have been & noticed on the tire screen, 3 tires were at 32 & 1 was at 38. So they didn't even check that. Something's changed there. it seems like they just want to get cars in & out quickly to bring more business in. I'm definitely not happy.
