I own a 2016 Ford Edge Sport which I purchased new in 2017 from Lander's Ford in Collierville, TN. All scheduled maintenances and recalls were performed in a timely manner at Landers Ford in Collierville, TN. My last oil change was in February 2018 with mileage around 9600 miles still 1000 miles from my next recommended oil change. I was in route from Collierville to Oxford, Ms on August 2, 2018 when I noted the "check oil pressure" light briefly alerting me. It only stayed on for a few seconds. It again alerted me when I arrived in Oxford. I checked the oil level myself and the oil was not even touching the dip stick. I immediately took my vehicle to the nearest dealership (Belk Ford in Oxford, MS-less than a mile). In route, I called to Landers Ford and spoke with David Craine. I explained the issue I was having with my Edge and his response was "And what do you want me to do about it?". He offered me no assistance.
On arrival at Belk Ford, I was warmly greeted by Salesman, Cameron Halbert, who asked how he could help me. He immediately spoke with the Service Manager, Pam, who promptly had her service team check my auto for leaks, (noting none) and added 5 1/2 quarts of oil. Pam recommended taking my auto to Landers-Collierville, TN for them to further investigate oil consumption. Cameron, Pam, Steven, and service staff at Belk Ford in Oxford, Ms went above and beyond to provide exceptional customer service even when I had never purchased a vehicle from this dealership.
Long story short-I took my auto to Landers Ford in Collierville, TN, Aug 2 in the afternoon, ended up speaking with three (3) different service managers (Bill Austin, David Crane, Robert Johnson) up to the general manager (Don Kitchens) that assured me they would begin maintenance on my vehicle to determine why my vehicle was consuming oil. I had to return with my auto on Aug 3 in pm due to dealership not having loner vehicle available on Aug 2--After a week with no one returning my calls, or updating me on the progress of my vehicle maintenance, Aug 11, I went to the dealership in person to discover maintenance had never been initiated. So, needless to say, I asked for my keys after no response from Robert Johnson as to why maintenance had not started, nor having my calls returned or updates.
If considering purchasing a new or used Ford, seek out another Ford dealership other than Landers Ford in Collierville, Tn. The current management of the Service Department was rude and has no concept of the true meaning of Customer Care/Service. read more
