I own a local business, and started bringing our whole fleet of vehicles here for regular…read moremaintenance, repairs, and upgrades. One of our vehicles ending up blowing the engine with just over 70,000 miles, and Ford covered most of the cost as there was a known defect with these engines. We were still forced to pay about $2,000 out of pocket for a replacement engine. I disagree with having to pay any amount for a known defect, but we needed the vehicle so we paid the $2,000 portion of the new engine. 1,000 miles later, the brand new engine failed, again. I had to tow it from southern Illinois back to Elkhorn Ford. After a few days I stopped in to check on it and Joe in service told me when they replaced the engine, they put old parts on the NEW engine, and those old parts, caused the BRAND NEW ENGINE to fail. Joe stated I now needed to pay almost $10,000 for a brand new engine. I was shocked... I asked to speak to Scott, the owner but he was on vacation. I left and said I would talk to Scott when he returns. When Scott returned, he said the same thing, that I am on the hook for the full repair. He also said that Joe claimed I was yelling, swearing and making a huge scene in the service department which is a complete lie. I was frustrated, but I never once raised my voice or said anything. This vehicle sat in their yard while they claimed to work with Ford, and the owner son in law, instead of contacting ME, sent a Facebook message to an employee of mine, saying "Remove your car before snow flies or we will tow it out of here" We had another vehicle in for an oil change prior to this and when we went to pick it up from their parking lot, every light on the dash came on saying check engine, check ABS, check battery etc etc. They brought it back inside to look at it. They said it needed a new ABS module for about $1,000. I disputed that and a month later they said "Oh never mind, we fix it, we found a loose wire we must have bumped, its fine now" Steer clear of this dealership, they have a high turn over in their shop and do not stand behind their work. I try our best to support every small local business in the area, and I've waited almost year before I spoke hoping Scott, John and the rest of their employees would do the right thing, but they choose not to.

I cannot say enough positive about the service department at Elkhorn Ford Motors. Joe, Ira and…read moreSteve all went out of their way to make my experience positive when my 2020 Ford Escape started having a few issues. Steve went out of his way to diagnose the problems my car was having, then replaced needed parts and finally tested everything so I can be confident with the results.

I went car shopping today, and looked at what stock they had available, plus checked out their…read moredeals. I have dealt with Kunes Delevan before, and purchased my current vehicle here. Great staff and very "low pressure" while you're shopping. Someone is always available to talk to or answer any questions you may have. Nice service department and lounge while you're waiting for your vehicle to be serviced (they even have a massage chair). Definitely a very professional and courteous dealership. Highly recommend.

Where to start? First of all, the negotiation process was slow and painful. Numbers would be…read moreshared, and then I would sit and wait for 15 minutes. I get negotiating prices for vehicles is never a fun process but this was brutal. On the drive home, I started to realized the AC wasn't working even though the window sticker said it did. I live 3 hours from this place so I couldn't just swing by and bring it up, I had to call. Getting a hold of the used car manager and the general sales manager took forever. It took 3 calls before they finally agreed for me to bring it in and check it out. After a 2 hour diagnosis, they quoted me $2500 for a new air compressor to be installed ($1000 in labor). They wouldn't agree to help at all with the costs even though they said the truck had AC when I bought it. Not to mention, I took it to a different shop and was quoted $1200 to get it fixed. Instead of working with me, they wanted me to just buy a newer truck with less miles on it. Would never recommend this place to anyone. I had a bad feeling about the place when going over prices during the negotiation and I should've trusted my gut and walked out of the dealership. Now I know for next time.
