STAY AWAY FROM MAINLAND FORD DEALERSHIP. WORST auto service I have experienced, including accounts of warranty stalling, vehicle damage, potential vehicle tampering, dereliction of resp WORST auto service I have experienced, including accounts of warranty stalling, vehicle damage, potential vehicle tampering, dereliction of responsibility and a general lack of integrity. I brought in my Ford transit under warranty for a broken USB plug and warning lights on April 17th to this dealership where I purchased my van. They informed me on April 18th that the broken hub caused damage to the rotor, both covered under warranty, and the ordered parts would arrive in 10-14 days. After retrieving my vehicle however I discovered that the vehicle's braking was faulty, a very scary condition to drive back home on the freeway. I later discovered that the hood was also unable to open with two dents that was not there in the photo taken just prior to service. I opened a case and reported this issue to Ford CRC. However, Mainland Ford advisor Nash simply denied ever having touched hood during two days when my van was at the dealership and the hood albeit the photo evidence clearly suggesting otherwise. However, Nash booked an appointment for me on May 7th (the last day of my warranty coverage) and fixed the hood latch “under warranty". The dents however are still there to this day. I spoke to their "team leader" Michael Jobse who refused to even look at the photos. After one month of waiting around for unfulfilled updates on the "untraceable" parts, I sent an email to Ford CRC case manager demanding answers and then miraculous again, half an hour later, I get a message from the dealership that my parts suddenly arrived! Wow, the coincidences! FINALLY, on May 22nd I took my van in for the last time I will ever be getting serviced there, and all xxxx breaks loose. Firstly, I waited over 6 hours for them for a 2-3 hour maximum job to replace the wheel hub. Beyond their massive dishonest and unprofessional, Fazia she called herself a manager was extremely rude and bully. Fazia refused to show me the parts arrival date for the shipment, even going as far as saying that "parts information gets wiped immediately upon arrival." An absolutely ridiculous sentiment. They could not provide one single piece of proof that the parts took a month for arrival. When Fazia handed me a bill of $1548 for the replacement of two rear rotors and brake pads, I said I needed to make a phone call to Ford CRC because rotors supposed to be covered by warranty. Fazia was immediately met with hostility urging me to make a decision or they would put old rotors back on even she addressed earlier"unsafe driving condition," a classic mechanic fear tactic. For safety Ford “pro” recommended me to leave my vehicle there for overnight until my case manager returned to work the next morning to discuss the situation. However, mainland ford only offered me a ride to the BUS STOP. Again they broke their promises that advisor Nash offered me pickup &drop off at home on May 7th. And again! Fazia was disturbing and arguing while I was talking to manager Michael Jobse for this issue. Being a woman, it was incredibly overwhelming to be ganged up on by multiple people of the branch with such hostility when they are the ones playing the games. Finally, I told them to just put old rotors back on so I could drive my van to home. This entire process was beyond appalling and it bewilders me how such people could call themselves professionals when they are actually professional scam artists, manipulating due process to milk warranty money while screwing over customers without second thought! All in all it was such a nightmare of dealing with those manipulative people. Ford cooperation needs to hear this if still care the business! Especially Fazia needs to be fired. The way she treated customer was absolutely unacceptable under the name of Ford. I would seriously recommend going to a different dealership if you can. More
I had a horrible experience with this service center. They made me pay for unnecessary repairs on my F150 truck.

I had to take my truck in twice for the same issue, which ultimately only required a sensor change. I ended up spending over $1,500, and they didn't even cover the towing cost the second time. Either they're very dishonest or they don't know what they're doing. I will never go back with any of my trucks and will find an honest mechanic instead. More
I have recently booked service for my ford bus 2004 model. The service department to pay upfront 2 hours daignostic charges around 400$. They got the list of problems and told me to pay upfront 1520$ f model. The service department to pay upfront 2 hours daignostic charges around 400$. They got the list of problems and told me to pay upfront 1520$ for EGR valve replacement to fix the issue because bus was not exceeding 40Km/hr. problem was not fixed and they asked to pay upfront 223$ again for further diagnostic and then further asked me to pay 500$ upfront again approximately to fix the exisiting throttle body. After all this, they again sent me a link to pay 400$ upfront more to further diagnose the issue. But...Magic happened, they realized that they have ripped me off enough and they called me to pickup the bus saying the bus has so many issues so its really not worth to invest on it. MORAL OF THE STORY...... WHEN YOU HAVE ALREADY GOT TO KNOW THAT BUS HAS SO MANY ERROR CODES AND ISSUES THEN STOP DOING ANY xxxx TO IT AND TELL ME ON FIRST DAY ........ DO NOT PUT MONEY ON IT Finally, bus is received back as is....even their tech or someone in parking lot hit it while backing up as i saw the rear guard dent and misaligned. I have got pics in their parking lot when I dropped the bus which they may not know but I have them. Lesson learned, FORD SURREY.......RIPPING OFF More
You can read my initial fiasco of dealing with their service department and a dead battery on Google reviews but here's the latest. Had a horrific water leak in our 2015 Ford Edge purchased at Mainland service department and a dead battery on Google reviews but here's the latest. Had a horrific water leak in our 2015 Ford Edge purchased at Mainland about 3.5 years ago and had to remove the passenger seat to pull up all the rugs to dry out everything and attempt to stop the leak. Unfortunately didn't realize needed to disconnect battery before unplugging the electrical attached to the seat which included the airbag seat sensor and has now tripped a code for the SRS system which can't be reset simply by a disconnecting the battery or with a diagnostic tool. From reading online it is a simple reset at a dealership. Thought I would give them one last chance at acting like they appreciated our business and explained to their general manager Mike Bradner the nightmare this water leak issue has caused if they could provide a free reset of the SRS system. Exactly as expected he acted like he had no ability to help us out that it was solely on the service department to make this decision suggested I walk over there and explain the whole story to them as well again. I attempted to meet the service manager who at the time was busy and after 25 minutes I finally left asking for a phone call. As expected she claimed there was nothing they could do for me she didn't even have knowledge of how this type of issue is resolved. It's an issue that is written up on the internet in many many forums a common issue when seat wiring harness is unplugged without first disconnecting the battery that takes a dealer to resolve. Just no concern for helping out their customers troubles by doing something extra... Just once you're out the door and you're money is in their account you're of no concern anymore. More
Poor service. I booked a service appointment a month in advance. There were not enough people to check in vehicles so waited 20 minutes. I had to pay for a rental I booked a service appointment a month in advance. There were not enough people to check in vehicles so waited 20 minutes. I had to pay for a rental (Brown Bros is free). I was told I would receive a call with an update. I hear nothing and called at 3.30 pm to be told that there were two items on which they wanted my approval but they didn't have time to do that day - would have been nice to receive a call so I could approve the work and have it done the same day. I ended up going to collect my car with those 2 items not done. I won't be back. I notice they did not ask me to complete the customer service rating - I wonder why. More

BEWARE! !!! I originally had troubles with this dealership when I had purchased my new f-150 and leased it though their leasing company. The sales agent a !!! I originally had troubles with this dealership when I had purchased my new f-150 and leased it though their leasing company. The sales agent and mangers had tried to sign my financing rate at a much higher rate then discussed which would have costs me $5000 over the lease term. After calling them out on the matter they started taking extras away from the deal (oil changes, service credit etc) which they had promised me and then threatened to keep my deposit if I were to back out of the deal. Fast forward 3 years, my lease has ended and I have requested my lease buyout from assistant finance manager Nadine Nieto. After several days she tried to not disclose the buyout statement from the leasing company and send me a BOS for thousands of dollars more then the residual amount that I was supposed to pay. Hugh red flags with this dealership. They are not upfront with anything! If you do not know how a dealership works and or financing, they have the ability and will take you for thousands. No honesty here. Take your business elsewhere More
