Excellent service with integrity and kindness! They always let us know when a job is an emergent…read more"must" or could wait a bit, and they just assured me now that based on my description of the behaviour of the car, my appointment for tomorrow morning wasn't necessary and didn't charge a cancellation fee. These people are lovely.

$950 spent, 1.5 weeks without my car, unnecessary parts replaced, and no solution…read more I previously sold auto parts, so I'm not unfamiliar with automotive repairs. This was the worst experience I've ever had. I don't like writing negative reviews, but I feel people should know about my experience before trusting this shop with their vehicle. After approx. 10 days and a $950 charge, including a $300 diagnostic charge. I was given the car back with the exact same problem I originally brought the car in for. The shop misdiagnosed the problem, replaced the wrong part, then said the replacement part was defective and replaced it again. When that still didn't fix the problem, I was told they didn't know what was wrong and that I should take the vehicle to a dealer. I later identified the problem with AI assistance, and my neighbor fixed it with an $80 part. I strongly recommend doing your homework and reading the LOWEST reviews before choosing this shop. Some customers may have had good experiences, but mine was extremely disappointing. I'm posting this so others can make an informed decision. According to AI a reputable shop will return your money. Didn't happen here.

My car's steering system failed in Victoria, and the vehicle was towed to Glenoak Ford on…read more15/7/2024. A new part was ordered, but Glenoak refused to track it after it was shipped, and I was refused any info to track it myself. I was initially told it would be 10-14 days for the part to arrive. On another visit, I was told it might be 20-25 days, plus 2 days to install. It was critical I be notified when the part was delivered so I could adjust my travel plans. I was promised several times by the service department manager and employees that they would definitely notify me when the part was in. Despite my pleas and their promises, they never contacted me with that information. Actually, I heard from the service department only twice after my car was towed there; first, telling me what was wrong with it, and, second, that it was repaired. I was given a "courtesy car" for two weeks but was charged half its cost. They attempted to charge me $350 more than the initial quote, but relented when I protested. I was told there was a 2-year warranty on the new part, but this was not on any paperwork I received. Service techs did not secure the splash guard to the bottom of the car, so it fell and dragged for several kilometers before it could be taken off. Despite numerous letters and emails, Glenoak Ford has made no effort to acknowledge the company's lack of communication and its dismissal of my requests. There has been no offer to reimburse me or negotiate any unnecessary financial expenses I endured because of their broken promise to let me know when the part arrived. There has been no apology nor admission of wrongdoing from them. I do not recommend anyone, especially a senior, single woman, to take her car to Glenoak Ford for servicing because of its disrespectful customer service, broken promises, lack of compassion, and outright deceit.

I arrived at the dealership not expecting to leave that same day with a new car, but the excellent…read moreservice and explanations from the staff at Glenoak Ford, specifically Ben and Sam, made me feel confident in both my new vehicle and my decision to upgrade. Ben was very personable and understanding of my situation and was able to answer any questions my son and I had about the different options available. The coordination between Ben and Sam, who managed the financial aspect of our upgrade, was also seamless. Sam worked very quickly to get me approved for a vehicle I really liked and also got a good value for the vehicle I had to trade-in. Furthermore, he got me an even better rate a few days later for my lease as well as a warranty. Finally, he was able to arrange an ICBC representative to come in that same day and finalize the changeover of insurance and drove away feeling great about my new vehicle. Overall, it was a great experience with knowledgable and helpful staff that work quickly. I would highly recommend Glenoak Ford for anyone looking for a new vehicle. Lorie
