      I would give them zero stars but that is not an option. I took my 2012 Ford Explorer to World Ford on May 9th with a leak in the rear hatch area, It is now been over three weeks and I still have had no communication with World Ford (service advisors email does not work) except for some secretary (when I call to get an update) that tells me that there is no one available to talk to me concerning my vehicle and that some one will have to call me back. And guess what that call never comes.

      While examining my husband's account for a Mazda he purchased from this dealership, I noticed several excessive fees, notably a $599 charge labeled "Pre-Delivery Service." Dealerships often impose unnecessary and questionable fees, attempting to extract extra money from customers. Unfortunately, this dealership is guilty of such practices. I urge everyone to research thoroughly and consider alternative options. I recommend watching Chevy Dude's YouTube channel for valuable insights. Avoid dealing with this unethical, greedy, and dishonest dealership at all costs. It's essentially "extortion." Labeling it as a pre-delivery fee is just another method of exploiting the buyer. The response from the owner to my husband via email was simply, "That is a fee that a dealership charges." That says enough about this company!

      WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. WORST DEALERSHIP IN THE US THAT SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN FOR HOW HORRENDOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE IS (I WOULDN'T SAY THAT EXISTS AT ALL HERE). Made an appointment over a month before taking it in (as they recommended), dropped it off and they told me 2-3 days to diagnose (even though I had the diagnosis from my last dealership that I moved away from a few days prior), and my truck disappeared into the abyss. Over a week go by before I'm able to get a measly text saying my truck hasn't even been looked at.....prior to that text I called the dealership well over 35 times. The service department didn't pickup a single time. Didn't matter if I waited on the line for over an hour or not. Never once received a call back, voicemail, or anything. I left messages with service managers and advisors, but again...not a single communication back. Now, I need my truck back (as you've had it for a month) because I move to a different state in 24 hours and the service advisor has yet to contact me on the status of my truck. I've sent 10+ unanswered texts to whatever number finally reached out (very sparsely with worthless and incompetent information) and have had my truck being held hostage ever since. Literally, holding my truck hostage. Even the GM won't answer the phone or return voicemails.

      Completely not the truth,   We had parts on order for a transmission repair.  The parts came in and was in line to be repaired.   Mr. **** know that.   He removed the truck from our service center because he was moving out of state per his voicemail to me.  It was his choice.    Also have records of return calls and text message sent to the Mr **** to update him.   As for not returning call to the GM,  100% lie.  As the GM received one call from him.  Have the voicemail saved and where I returned the call and left voicemail.

      I as the GM of this store have done nothing but help Mr *****. He has been threatening all over $600 gap coverage cancelation process. All documents have been sent to him in email with confirmation of him opening the email. The lender that Mr ***** financed the car with has the balance from the cancelation.

      So I purchased a new F-150 in early May 2023. The sales rep Chris exhibited professionalism and represented his dealership well. The problem is the upper management - general manager. So they messed up the military rebate. It’s going on three months to find out through the rebate center that the dealership took the rebate for themselves. A message was left by the supervisor at the rebate center for the GM at Ford to call her back and myself. I find out this morning after never being called by the GM, the GM has refused to callback the supervisor at the rebate center. Again I said almost three months of owning this new vehicle and I am driving around with their dealer plate because the dealership can not get my pickup registered. Three times I have requested they give me the paperwork because I can do their job and get it done promptly. This has literally been the worst nightmare a new vehicle owner could experience. They refuse to callback. They offer no incentives for their problems and now I have to resort to getting my pickup registered by submitting paperwork it to the motor vehicle services. This dealership is not a customer service friendly company but a get the money and run approach! My next step will be to reach out to corporate Ford and give them a breakdown of this dealership. I wish an experience like this on nobody. And one last item. This dealership hides their sales managers behind glass and a high desk. First time experiencing a cold approach and even after the sale not one single manager came out and personally addressed himself and showed any type of professionalism. I have purchased 7-8 new pickups over the years and every sales manager has confronted me, introduced himself and offered any type of assistance. That adds a lot to a big ticket purchase. No hometown feel or experience at this dealership!

      OK, here you go. I purchased a 2017 Ford Edge Titanium with ALL the bells and whistles, paid well over $50K, had everything possible in my Edge, and she had only 4 miles on her. The 2 - (two) salesmen I spoke with were good; the first one had an appointment (he told me at the beginning of my meeting that he had someone coming in), so halfway through, I was switched to the second salesman, and he finished my deal. Going into my ONCE YEAR after purchasing my Edge, I had a "ghost in my truck" what are ghosts - when your sensors keep going off when they shouldn't, BUT when they should go off, they don't? I had my truck in World Ford 12 times, and all they kept saying was, "they could not find what was wrong with my truck." So, I got outraged, so I went into Ford again, and there was a serviceman, Jerry, and I asked him to come for a ride, and he did. His words, "You just gave me the ride from hell," only proved to him that something was wrong, and it was NOT in my head. My sensors would go off for a stop sign or the metal poles on the side of the road, BUT not for vehicles coming toward me. I know everyone knows how much a Ford Raptor cost per "road and track. The 2023 Ford F-150 Raptor R Will Start at $109,145", and while I was at the dealership, there was one in front of me, so I pulled right up to it, and the sensors never went off. I was less than 2" away. Jerry got out of the truck and checked and was amazed. Then we went on the road, where the "fun" started. I pulled up to a red light, and there were vehicles all around me, and the sensors did not go off, so when the light turned green, we all went, and I got closer to the vehicles, and still nothing, and THEN I pulled 5' - 6' away from a STOP SIGN and guess what the sensors went off. Jerry was amazed, and then when we got back to the dealership, he called corporate (which I already told them that I did called corporate) and they had them put new sensors into my truck, and the ghost was gone.

      I purchased a brand new 2022 Ford F-150 Black Ops limited edition truck from World Ford of Pensacola Florida. At the time of my purchase I was an employee at World Ford in the service department. I have been in the Automotive service industry for over 25 years. It's all I know. I was able to use the "D" plan that Fotor Motor Company extends to their employees. I wanted to represent the brand I was working for so I decided to trade in my 2016 GMC 2500HD Denali. Nothing wrong with it at all. Like I said, I wanted to represent the brand I was working for. I decided that if I was going to buy a new truck I'll buy what I wanted and price wasn't an issue. Here's the skinny. From the very first day there were issues with the vehicle. From trim concerns, to electrical concerns, brake concerns, and so on. You would think that because I work at the dealership I would be able to have concerns addressed quicker. And it's a BRAND NEW TRUCK. But my salesman blew it off. Oh it will be ok. Just gotta let everything settle in he said. So I went with it. The truck I purchased had all kinds of cool upgrades to it. The truck was a beast. I had to ask several times about the warranty of the truck. I was assured by everyone I spoke with that everything is covered for 3years/36000 miles. 100 %. The deal is that the upgraded eqp is actually warrantied through another company that did the work. I wasn't made aware of that. In the days and weeks to come the issues that were there were worse. And new ones started. One of which is my overhead speakers turned into shower heads. My truck got soaked, speakers shorted out. I was furious. So I made an appt for service. It took 30 days to get an appt. And when I arrived at the shop for the appt I was told by the service advisor it's going to be another 3 plus weeks before it even gets touched. I don't have a lot more space to write. The short of it all is that my truck has been at this dealership 83 days as of 2/20/2023. This is the worst dealer!!!

      i had a accident and state farm is my insurance company well world ford is on their recommend list so i call them and doug tells me that their is no waiting so thinking that they should fix my 2009 chevy silverado pretty quickly i let them do it. after 30 days i finally get my vehicle back now the damage i had was my bumper hood and maybe front of the dog house left panel. i did notice that i had a a leak of antifreeze, now i did not have any mechanical issues and i was able to open and shut all doors regularly meaning no issues with anything. also i had a receiver for towing my trailers on my truck. my wife picks up my truck and she starts to head home she gets a warning saying low oil pressure shut engine off. she call doug and he tells her it’s a safety feature that she should be ok. well she finally makes it to me where i was working after she being stressed from this issue, i get in the truck and first thing i say what happened to the door latch can’t open door from inside of truck secondly engine light is on service air bag is on oil pressure gauge saying 40 which is where it stays at i start to drive home and oil pressure goes to zero and warning light come on low oil pressure stop engine, now i did not have these issues before the accident and now i am which should be token care of by the insurance company which they would have but world ford did not do so. they told my insurance company that i had a oil leak ok but my oil pressure gauge never went to zero or i never got a warning saying stop engine and my door all worked fine, now why did this occurred only one response is the accident that happened, cause these issues, now to the repairs that was done all they did was the cosmetic repairs oh and why would someone change a headlight assembly and leave the other one not working properly? and where is my receiver for my trailer? and why is my door not working? why is my engine light on? why did you all tell state farm that you repaired the truck and didn’t

      I was given an appointment to have my car serviced because it will not start. I had to pay $156 to have it towed to World Ford. Once they received my car they called me and told me it would be 3 weeks before they could even look at it. It seems like kind of a scam to give someone an appointment for a car repair and then, after you have paid $156 to have it towed, they tell you they can't even look at it for almost a month.

      My car has been in the shop for over 3 weeks after I had it towed to the car lot. When I got it back thier was a suspension fault so I had to give it back. When I gave it back the had me wait in line for 2 weeks before they ever even looked at it the gave it back telling me thier was no fault I drove no more than 5 miles and the fault came back it has sat in thier shop for another week before they looked at it again. Friday I went to puck up my car to take it somewhere else to be worked on the very next morning they called and told me I'd be next to be looked at after 8 hours of the next day they told me that they had to sensors that they had to replace and one was a day out ordered and the other 2 or 3 days out. After 3 days I call back and they said they would go check on it and they said 5he part just came in and they will see when the technician will be able to work on it. Now mind u I have had a car for about a 3 weeks now and I'm still jot priority to be worked on. They gave my car back 3 times and told me the car is good to go and it hasn't been it has had this fault popping up over and over,mind u after bringing it back the service manager keeps telling me I have to wait for other people to be worked on first. I asked them for a rental car and they acted like they didn't want to give me one. I payed for the extended warranty that covers rental cars and they still gave me a hard time. After going back up thier to talk to the boss lady manger I got one the next day when I went to pick it up it was the bottome line cheapest car they have I got a 70k car from them and they put me in the bottom line p.o.s. I am very disappointed and damn sure will not ever bring my car back thier to be serviced again. Mike is the name of the service manager that Handel my car and I want it to be known that Pensacola ford has no morals as to priority. Once I had to bring car back I should have had been first right away to be looked at why was I penalized and made to wait after th
