After a car service at Knox Ford, I noticed a big scratch across my windscreen which I assumed had been caused when my car was being cleaned. I pointed it out to the service supervisor who told me they would replace my windscreen at no charge at my next service. The next time I booked a service I reminded them that they were to replace my windscreen and was told that they had no record of the scratch being reported or the promise the service supervisor had given me. Conveniently, that service supervisor had left the business.

Customer Service Not Included
We bought a Ranger in 2016 which came with a range of supposedly “Genuine Ford Parts”. After 6 months, the tornneau cover we had would not seal and was not fit for purpose. After further investigation, it turned out it was non genuine part however Ford Australia stated there was nothing they could do to assist (it took four weeks to get a phone reply).
In addition, every 15000km service has resulted in delayed repairs or damage to the vehicle (of which they attempted to cover up). Zero customer service across multiple levels of their corporation.

Warranty
Eden Motor Group
Took my Ranger for a warranty claim about surface rust on the chassis. I was sent a email saying that it would be repaired at no cost to me and covered under warranty. Ford customer service was involved and agreed. Since then case managers have been changed. The service department doesn’t return emails as no point in calling as everything they say is a lie. Now the owner of the dealership is involved he just writes nasty emails and denies everything he’s a disgrace for the Ford Motor Company. Have bought close to 30 new Fords and never had a dealer as bad as this.

Rip Off overcharging staff and thuggish behaviour - Titan Ford Melville Service Centre
Overcharged on the servicing and over nearly twice the estimate on pickup of the serviced vehicle. Additional charges were never advised before the car was ready and I had told them I was on a budget. Some labour was taken off but I had to pay the balance to be able to take my car away. Or an option of refitting the defective parts was another option provided by [name removed]…. Ridiculous.
When Consumer Protection investigated lies were told by [name removed] and [name removed] (Staff who quoted estimate) that I was advised of additional cost...Read more

Warranty claim
, I purchased A warranty replacement from McCarrol Motors Mudgee.
I have taken my Ford Ranger in to have the carpet replaced under warranty. While the car was in the shop it had wires for our aftermarket headrest DVD players burnt out and fuses blown under our bonnet. Since we have had the car back we have called and spoke to [name removed] about the service that we are unhappy with. We have also had to replace the DVD headrest and the fuses as they try saying it was after market and not there problem. It was working when when in and they also said it happened there as the wiring is dodge what a load of crap.

Protektiv not as tough as nails
Smooth as glass, tough as nails
The information is misleading do not buy Protektiv paint protection or the Smart cosmetic repair membership. The information in the smart brochure is misleading as well. The cosmetic company will only be polishing your car under the smart program I been told I should have got the gold membership which was never mentioned by the dealer when I bought this package.

Buyer beware!!! (Binks ford Victoria)
I had been contacted by my finance company to say that settlement had cleared with the dealer and everything was finalised for me to pick up my new car in the afternoon. Then after lunch I received a call from the dealer demanding an EXTRA $1100 cash on top of the contract price, when I said this was not in the contract and I would obviously not be paying it I was abused by the dealer principal down the phone to the point that I told him if he continued I would have to hang up, he then continued the name calling and abuse so I was forced to han...Read more
g up the phone (regardless of your view, nobody deserves to be spoken to in that way). I was told several times that the contract meant nothing and the car would not be released to me unless an additional $1100 was paid within the next 2 hours. Unfortunately the dealer principal, knew that I would have no option other than expensive legal fees as I was already locked in to a finance contract and the dealership had already been payed. Horrible experience and wish I had of purchased my vehicle elsewhere. If anyone is considering buying from Binks Ford I would suggest they consider other options. Apart from the sales team the rest of the staff at Binks have been helpful and a pleasure to deal with, it’s unfortunate that the way management decides to run their business will no doubt effect them, and Fords reputation in the future.Similar opinion?

Very poor service
My son took his Ford Territory into John McGrath Ford for a checkup as the gearbox was playing up. John McGrath quoted approx $6990 to replace the gear box. So we decided to get a second opinion. It was in fact the “Heat Exchanger” had split. So “Heat Exchanger” and a gear box flush, total cost $897. John McGrath never mentioned anything about needing a new “Heat Exchanger”. Their service techs don’t really seem to know what they’re doing. Or there just trying to rip people off.

Cardiff Ford- fantastic price and great service
I bought a Ford Ranger from John at Cardiff Ford in June. Although we are from Southern NSW, John gave us the best price we could find on a Ranger. He was very helpful with helping organize a long distance pickup. Sonia from finance was also great to work with. We are now halfway through a 5,000km roadtrip and loving our Ranger.

Good service overall
I had a service done at Metro Ford Woolloongabba yesterday.
They gave me a loan car as promised - Ford Escape, which was a nice car to drive.
They went through everything with me that was done, plus a couple of small things to sort out with my car.
The people at Metro Ford Woollongabba were pleasant to deal with.

Ford investigations
Don't bother with contacting customer service as I did. They'll just tell you some rubbish about wear and tear if they (mcinerney ford) break something. Good car, bad service.

service centre relocation
For all those people wishing to take their Ford to Brad Garlic Ford, be careful, it has relocated to an out of the way location at Melrose Park. No buses, not enough loan cars and not enough courtesy buses. The move has taken them further west. I think, or should I say they didn't think about the access to and from. You either have to walk over a kilometre or wait for an hourly bus service to get you back to the city. Don't forget about a courtesy car, you'll have to make a service booking months in advance for one of those! so much for their a...Read more
dds on TV? and bad luck if it's just the run of the mill breakdown, you'll have no hope. I purchased a new car through the dealer group at Ford, I was on their service list and have been for many a long year (with a current email) and I was told nothing about the move at the time of the sale nor was I notified by text, mail or email. Extremely poor customer service, will never be going back to Brad Garlic, that breaks a 45 year relationship with Ford going to that site (originally Fury Ford). We're all better off going to the NRMA service centre at Gladesville. My service their saved me more than $200.00 for a log book service. Bye Bye Ford.Similar opinion?

Stay away
Just had my Ford Territory Serviced at Newstead Metro Ford, as I work 400 meters away, so they were convenient.
Was advised the cabin filter will be replaced multiple times and the receipt showed this also (and verified when I picked up the car). Today I checked and found the old 3 year old cabin filter in place with mould and dirt, and I am absolutely annoyed.
Now I have to get an oil analysis done on my transmission, to make sure the fluid was in fact replaced (not just re-used), when it was done recently.
Stay away from this place.

Dishonest
I drove over 200 miles to purchase a car that turn out it had been wrecked. After having the car inspected by 2 other ford dealers both agreed that the car had been wrecked.
Long story short, the hood wasn’t bolted on straight,There were a lot of new parts that were bolted on the car still, with shipping labels on them, the exhaust manifold was leaking exhaust, the Oil pan was leaking oil, & the rear end was leaking oil as well.
The car only had 34000 miles,3 years old.
The original dealership shipped me the owner manual for the car, & s...Read more

Questions & Answers
Matt222asked
I signed a deal with a ford car yard. I wont name and shame just yet. Took it (kugar) for a test drive drove well and negotiated a deal i think was good for myself. Vehicle was in stock have not heard anything from the salesman coming up to 7 days. Apart from the contact initiated 2 days ago asking when i could collect my new. No real answers given other than ford had to release it. How long should i have to wait is my question and am i being unreasonable to think more contact should have been made?

They have asked my wife to pickup 5:30 pm ... it was dark in AUG 2016. She couldn't check properly. When I saw the car i have notice rings have damaged badly and it was issue with front tier and also break issue (making noise) and wheel alignment require.
We took some photos and send them by email a day after.
When they have checked in workshop their mechanic told me who give this car road worthy? when i said your company they kept quiet and that mechanic never came back to us.
After 6 month still we have issue with break and it is the disk issue, also rings and tires never replaced same issue, they just did wheel alignment.
I love ford territory this is my second territory but I told every one and I recommend everybody "Never ever buy from BAYFORD IN EPPING. They are NOT trustworthy and NOT honest".

Ok. Has anyone paid for a quote on a vehicle? This would be the first. mmmmmm after reading these reviews. I feel my dad was been scammed.

Hi, You never pay for a quote on any repair on any car. You should promptly go back for a refund and report this person to fair trading. No work was undertaken so this is a con.
