    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Unanswered
    I had my engine repaired by Twin State Ford in *************, ******* in January of 2022.My husband and I then tried to move to *******, with all our belongings and dog in our **** and on the way, the car broke down in ********. We took our car to: ******************* in ********* ******** and the dealership determined the repair was poor workmanship Al the *********** Service Advisor stated their were metal shards all through the vehicle & the engine would need to be replaced. After a month of being stranded in ** & eventually making our way to AZ in a rental car paid for out of our pockets, arrangements were made between **** Claims & the 2 dealerships to have my car shipped back to the Twin State Ford in *************, *******. The car arrived at Twin State Ford, roughly 2 years after it broke down, in January of 2024. Upon arriving I explained the situation again to **** claims and ****** the Supervisor stated because they had a ton of cars to look at first, they could not diagnose my car right away. **** Claims has tried numerous times to follow up with ****** without being able to make contact. They have tried dozens of times to contact them over the last 2 months to no avail. I have also tried contacting them on several occasions but run into the same issue. I need confirmation that they are working on diagnosing & repairing my **** *** need to know the timeline for that repair. At this point they have basically stolen my car & are ghosting me as I try to figure out the status. At a minimum I need a representative from Twin State Ford to schedule & participate in another three-way call with **** Claims, ********* I also need them to officially diagnose the issue and repair the damage they originally caused, in addition to, any damage that *** have occurred due to incremental weather and outside circumstances while my car was being held at both dealerships. I have been making payments on my car and insurance over this time too, with no rental car offered to me.

    Avoid at all costs!!! ****************** is deplorable. Have had my new truck less than two weeks and had to go back in as AC was not working and check engine light was on They had the truck for eight days, told us it was fixed, and two days later same problem along with a new message saying transmission now has an issue ( this message was dated the day we picked up the truck after being told it was fixed My previous purchase from them had to be returned four times for issues!!! Both before I even made my first payment ****************** manager was snide, rude and condescending and his answer to our problem was it was working when you left , and told us to find a different dealership My opinion is that we were lied to and the truck was never fixed at all They knew we were on a time issue to get the truck back so that we could attend a funeral (I think eight days was more than enough time to get the truck in), as we were also told it was a priority (another lie)I would pass on this dealership
