My 2013 Ford Focus had two recalls. I contacted Columbia Ford a week in advance to make an appointment to bring it in. The service guy told me to bring it in on a Wednesday before 9am. As I was driving there that day the low tire pressure light came on. I arrived at 8:30am and decided that along with the recalls, I would also get new front pads and rotors, and to check the low tire pressure light. I understood this may add more time to the wait but I was never told what time to expect the car finished. My mistake was assuming since I had an appointment, it would be done same day. Before coming in, I was prepared to take their free shuttle home while I waited for the car. This was a convenient service. After dropping the car off I was told to wait and I will be notified when the shuttle gets back. This was my first time here so I was unsure of the process. I waited almost an hour when I asked another service advisor if I can expect the shuttle soon? He went to call the driver when the shuttle coincidentally arrived at the same time I inquired. I would have appreciated a little more transparency while I waited. The shuttle ride home was pleasant. I received a phone call at 2:52pm from the dealer. I was told my car hasn’t even been brought into the shop yet and if I could leave it overnight. I was disappointed but I had no problem waiting a little longer. I asked what time tomorrow can I expect it to be finished? The service advisor told me by noon. The next day I received a call at 11:22am. Thinking my car was finished, I excitedly answered the phone only to find out it was not finished, but just being brought in and it should be done “in an hour or two”. Finally, I decided to call the dealer 3 hours after they told me it would be finished in an hour or two. I was conveniently told it was actually just finishing up when I called and the shuttle can come pick me up and by the time I get there it’ll be done. Then the shuttle driver called me confirming where my house was located. He couldn’t find me so I asked for landmarks and what is around him. As we talked I realized he’s not even in the correct town. The service advisor sent him to the right address, wrong town. The town he was in was 40 minutes away. I finally arrived back at the dealer a little over 60 minutes later. Back at the dealer I was handed the invoice and paid for it. The price was surprisingly slightly less than I expected. The service advisor did not explain in detail what all the charges were. He did say one of the recalls the website was down so they couldn’t confirm if my car needed repairs or not. He said he entered all the information so if he finds it does need repair, he will contact me. If I don’t hear anything, then no news is good news. I asked if he could please contact me either way so I can confirm things, he obliged. It’s now been 8 days and I’ve heard nothing yet. The brake pads and rotors repair does seem adequate and the tire had a slow leak that has been repaired. Overall, I did not find my experience pleasant. I can safely say I will not be recommending this dealership service to friends and family, and I will not be returning.

My experience at Columbia Kia was great. Quick service, friendly team, impeccable dealership...they were more than happy to help me get into the vehicle I've been looking for EVERYWHERE. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Johnathan was my sales guy...gave me up front info and made the buying process quick and painless. Alysa helped me with a tutorial of my new vehicle..no rush..no pushy sales gimmicks.

I have recently bought a Ford F250 pickup Truck. Andy Caldwell was my sales man. Andy was a excellent and professional at his job. Andy answered all my questions and if did know what he would look them up and answer them after he has checked into it. Andy has done everything that he said he would and more. I will use Andy again in future purchases. I would recommend that if you ask for Andy . He goes the extra step for you. Thank you Andy

Bought two cars from here. First experience was fine. Second time not so much. Went to look into maybe trading in my car. Well I did. Was basically told not to wait until the next day to see about a better interest rate. The salesman. Told me he would take 3000.00 off the price if I took the car off the lot that night. So I did. Go to refinance. Nope I was 3000.00 dollars upside on my loan. My problem. But never again.

Had a great experience without complications! Everyone was friendly and not pushy; I was able to drive off the lot with Hector's help. He stayed late with me and made it an enjoyable time, we had some very nice conversations. The site was phenomenal with a waterfall at the entrance, complete with koi fish! I highly recommend, if not just for their food station :)

I just bought a brand new car from Columbia Ford and Darius Banks was my salesman. From the moment I contacted the dealership to the time I left, they were great!!! I couldn't be happier with Darius Banks and Jimmie Bletsch who was the sales manager. They made my purchase easy, smooth, and fun. I would highly recommend Darius if you are looking to purchase a vehicle in the future.

I went to this dealership to refinance my car. The main reason why my experience was so good was because of Darius. He was very friendly. All of my questions were answered. He gave us a tour around the building, which no dealer has ever done for me. I felt very comfortable working with him. He gave me more options other than just refinancing my car, like trading it in. I didn't end up trading my car in, but that was not because of anyone at Columbia Kia/Ford. Darius is easy to work with and goes above and beyond to find exactly what you're looking for (price range, interest rate, etc.) He stayed well past closing time, on two different days, just to help and work everything out. If anyone goes to this dealership, I would absolutely recommend to work with him, you will not be disappointed.

This is the second time we have been back to purchase a car from this dealership and the service just keeps getting better! Darius Banks was not your average sales person, he was personable, attentive, and best of all... KNOWLEDGEABLE! New cars today are so packed with new technology that they can be daunting. But Darius made it all simple and straightforward.I will be buying my cars from Columbia Ford for as long as am a driver! :)

I contacted Darius via e-mail about a vehicle he had in stock. He was quick to respond and gave me everything up front. I asked him to do better and he did. He really worked hard to get me the best price and responded to all of my questions quickly and professionally. Unfortunately I ended up going with a vehicle that I liked better at a different dealership, but I was impressed at how Darius handled himself and I'll definitely contact him again the next time around.

I called from the highway after hearing a loud noise from the front of my truck and it started shaking at highway speeds. This was a 4:30 pm and I asked Columbia Ford if they could schedule me for an appointment the next day. They asked me if I could be there at 8:30 the next morning and I said I could be there. I arrived and they checked me in and within 30 minutes the tech came and found me and explained that he had test driven my truck, found the vibrating at 62 mph, and that he felt I had thrown a weight from one of my tires and that was the loud noise I heard. He recommended that I balance the tires and that should take care of the problem. He throughly checked the under carriage of my truck and stated he saw no other issues. I was in an out in an hour and back on the road. This is the kind of service that you can expect from Columbia Ford.

My experience with Columbia Kia was great they tried to fix my issue with the Fiesta. However the problem is not fixed this is not there faults it's Ford I am completely disgusted with Ford and I intend on giving them a piece of my mind when I speak to them on Monday. How can you sell a car that has problems and not do everything in your power to fix it. This is my 5th time getting my car serviced for the same issue. It is still happening so now it's the 6th time. Columbia tried there best and they were accommodating to my needsweet however Ford is awful and I am very disappointed in them.

I have had some good and not so good experiences with Columbia Ford. My husband recently took our car in for its first oil change. The service men were goofing off when pulling our car into the garage (one guy kept opening the door halfway and then closing it). My husband didn't have all day for them to service our car. When the car was ready for pickup, my husband noticed a line of either dirt, grease, or oil on the front driver's seat. That was the worst part. I e-mailed our salesman, Matt Milici, but have yet to receive a response. Just some unprofessional behavior mixed with unsatisfactory service that left me with a somewhat bad experience.

He asked insightful and intelligent questions to be sure we got the car we wanted, with the services and features we wanted, at the price we wanted. He went the extra mile, for sure. We talked finances with Jake, who made it understandable and painless. He even unscrambled a glitch at the DMV in order to register our new car! Columbia Ford is the best!

I scheduled an oil change for Monday October 17, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. Approximately (70) seventy minutes later, the vehicle was ready. After waiting an hour, I decided to inquire why a simple (scheduled) oil change had exceeding an hour. There was no explanation. I assumed since there was such a lengthly wait, the car was vacuumed, washed, etc. The car was never touched. Customer service needs some adjustments!

Tim was very patient, as was Jimmie with all of our questions and both worked really hard getting the answers and best price possible for us. Jake made all of the paperwork easy and seamless and was quite entertaining. Between the three of them, my wife and I had an enjoyable experience and will definitely recommend to our friends and colleagues.

We went in at 1 with no appointment and the intention of buying a used SUV for $15-18K with about 50,000-75,000 miles. We worked with our salesman, John Senick, looking at all our options. John suggested we look at a lease of a new car and when we reviewed the finances we were able to get a new leased car for a smaller monthly payment than the used cars in our price range. Not a surprise, John has sold us several cars in the past and we trust his expertise and judgement

I first dealt with Timothy Bassett and found him to be genuine and careful to listen to what I was seeking. He was very informative and spent the time to find the exact vehicle I was looking for. It was so easy to work with this dealership and you can quickly see they employ a "team" concept to insure the customer comes first and they certainly let you know they appreciate your business.

I personal want to thank a great man that works their in the service dept named Gary! Gary helped me today when I realized that opppps my sunroof was left open all night long and my car was soaked with water. I was really upset when I got in my car and realized that the rain did more damage then my husband and I thought!!My whole electrical system was not working, the radio, the heat, all the buttons on my center control panel was done!! I was crying so upset at this point! I didn't know what to do, so I called my friends down at Columbia ford in Columbua CT and spoke with Gary from the service department. I couldn't be more satsified, Gary is sincerely a great person, he helped me at the last min. Went out of his way to get me in there same day and looked at my car. What do you know 2min later my radio was working and all of the buttons on my dash working:-) I would recommend Coulmibia Ford to everyone and anyone that needs work done on their car! If possible ask for Gary he's great, professional and knows what he's doing. Great work Gary, your a life saver. I can't thank you enough! Thank you again,Rosalind

This service took longer than expected. I was in for a oil change and was told there was a recall and it would take about 1 1/2 hrs, so i waited in the waiting room. After 2 1/2 hrs my car was finally done. I was disappointed that nobody came to tell me it would be longer than 1 1/2 hrs, after 2 hours i had to go ask what was taking so long. This was the first time i have experienced disappointing service, usually the service is excellent and everything is done in the time they say.

Also only had the vehicle for 5 weeks and am expected to pay $100 deductible on repairs when first time I spoke with dealership was 3 weeks after purchase.

For over twenty years I have bought Ford cars, Taurus' except for the Fusion that I bought last week. All of these cars have been bought at Columbia Ford, a great place, where I a happy to do my car shopping. All of the people that I have dealt with there have been friendly and very helpful. The person who has sold me all but two of my Ford cars is John Senick. I feel very comfortable dealing with him and trust his judgement. When it comes time to purchasing another car, I will gladly return to Columbia Ford and once again, ask for John. One other thing, your restrooms are great. They are spotlessly clean and welcoming. I have never been there when they haven't been in tip top shape. I just wish that bathrooms in other places could be keep in the same condition that Columbia Ford keeps theirs!

My wife and I recently went through some hard times financially and when our main vehicle broke down at the beginning of summer and our back up vehicle had no AC we were devastated. When a friend of ours said that he only buys Fords and only from John Senick at Columbia we were skeptical that we could afford to purchase right now, but we gave it a shot. John called us immediately, he listened to what we were looking for in a car and what our max payment needed to be. John was able to find us a fantastic car in our price range with more features than we thought we could afford. Eric worked with us and got us a good interest rate and affordable payments. There was no pressure and none of the usual "car salesman" shenanigans you find at other dealers. I highly recommend John and the Columbia group for your next car purchase, I know we will be purchasing our next vehicle from there.

We walked away from Columbia Ford with a great car at a great price. Ed Carpenter was our salesman he asked us a few questions and zeroed in on a perfect choice for us, he didn't try to sell us more than we needed. The team of Ed, Jake and Jimmie really cared about our situation, it truly felt like we were dealing family. They worked to get us low interest rate financing with a low monthly payment. These employees were Happy, Friendly, Honest and Caring which says a lot about the Gates brothers and how they run a business. This is our third purchase from Columbia Ford and it won't be the last.

I knew what type of car I wanted, and, as luck would have it, a car with exactly the features I was looking for was delivered shortly before we arrived. It was a perfect match. There was no pressure. It was low-key, and Andy showed a lot of patience with a difficult insurance agent when they transferred my insurance. They were kind to my children and kept them happy during the whole process of purchasing the car. They made the whole process pleasant, and for that, I am grateful.

I would recommend to anyone looking for a new vehicle to start at Columbia Ford. This is my second vehicle with the dealership and the staff and service is always amazing. Daniel's father should be very proud of him, he raised a wonderful young man who works hard and cares from his heart in every aspect of his life.

I had my 2005 E250 van towed here after coming in and talking with Joe Berube and one of the mechanics about the problem i was having with it. I explained that the van would start and run at low idle but sputtered and bogged out when it was in gear under a load. It was also showing the code for "Fuel rail pressure sensor" they did inform me that it most likely was not a bad sensor but a fuel delivery issue. Joe told me it would be approx $120.00 to have the computer diagnostics run on it, and that would pin point the problem. I was afraid to bring it to a smaller shop figuring they would simply start changing parts until they found the problem and then I'd be on the hook for all the parts swapped. They started first thing Mon morning with the computer diagnostics. The first hour went by and I got a call informing me that "They are having problems with the communications connection to the van ????." They said they still didn't have an answer and did I want them to continue with the diagnostics into the second hour as it will now be an additional $120.00. At this point what choice do I have so I OK'ed the additional hour. The second hour goes by and no call. So i call the service dept. and spoke with Shyann. I explained what was going on, she put me on hold and went out and spoke to the service tech assigned to the job. When she came back to the phone she told me "He was going to get back on it" that he was waiting for the OK to do so, which i had already given over an hour ago. It was only 15 minutes later I got a call from Gary Steady. He let me know that it was a bad fuel pump and with my OK they could have it done and ready to go by the end of the day. I told Gary to go ahead and fix it which they did and so far no problems. To sum it up, everyone I dealt with in the service department was very nice. I was a little soured by the "Additional Hour Charge" ($120.00) on the diagnostics as it was my understanding from the get go that it would only be an hour and they would have their answer.

Steve was very helpful from the beginning of the sale right on through the purchase of the sale. I ordered my truck and Steve always kept me informed the status of my truck and when it would be at the dealership. Once I picked up the truck, Steve contacted me to make sure I was happy with the truck and that if he could be of any further assistance. It turned out that I did need some assistance because once I got the truck home I noted one of the rims had been damage. Steve did not question the damage and advised me to bring the truck back so he could look at it. When I returned to the dealership Steve met me at the door(which is a "big" thing in my opinion) he immediately brought his Sales Manager, Jimmie Bietsch out to look at the damage. Jimmie did not question me about the damage, but apologized to me(this made me very happy) about damage, that they didn't see it before before I got the truck and that they would repair the damage which they did. I'm extremely happy with Steve in his handling of my purchase to repair of the rim.

I spent a couple days at a local Chevy dealer talking about a new Silverado. Although the sales guy was very nice, the sales manager was playing "the bad guy". Undervaluing my trade, playing games with the numbers and the usual BS. I was not impressed.I came back to Columbia Ford where I've purchased 8 previous trucks from John Senick. John knows me well. No drama. We took the truck I wanted for a drive and I loved it right away. Beautiful truck!The dealership did not play any games with me. They found the "right deal" for me ... telling me that a lease would work well with this truck. The numbers were spot on. The monthly payment was less than what I was paying and I got some cash back, too. John even picked up my old truck.This is why I've purchased 8 previous trucks from John and Columbia Ford. Never disappointed with the service I receive. Thanks !

When I called to make this service appointment I was told that this "We Owe" visit included tire rotation. When I brought the car in the morning of June 1 I requested verification that this visit included tire rotation. I was told that it did. When I reviewed the documentation of the service provided there was no indication that the tires had been rotated - only that tread depth, wear pattern/damage, and pressure had been checked. I would have paid for the rotation if I knew this service was not going to be provided. If the tires were, in fact, rotated, I will change the answers to this survey.

Brought my truck in for a belt replacement and oil change,belt was diagnosed during previous oil lube service along with a brake job that was recommended, I decided to wait for this next oil change to make repairs due to cost of labor and parts,mainly labor.when I made the appointment I asked to have the oil and lube done along with the belt that had been previously diagnosed,the brake job was done at a local repair facility far less then your price quote at previous visit with your service department,using the best rotors and pads that I could buy. I asked Joe Berube the price of the belt that would be required as I could not remember the original quote,he gave me a price which I suspected was much more than I was originally told,I waited to get home to verify this, I was correct in my suspicion.I called Joe and asked him again the price of the belt in question,he put me on hold and checked with parts,came back to me and the price of the belt was almost 40.00 less,a high estimate is as bad if not worse than a low estimate,i. E.my brake job.During this service being performed,Iasked to have my A.C. checked as there was no cool air coming from dash,thinking it may just need a freon charge,much to my disappointment and shock,Joe as a matter of fact told me that the tech found that a blend air door was not functioning properly and was the reason for A.C. not working,Was told it was at least a 2000.00 dollor labor repair,and that I should replace all the blend air door motors while they were doing repair since they were right there anyways,this I knew was not a necessity,leading me to suspect the tech is not sure of which one it might be,so let's just replace all ,I did not receive a estimate of these parts costs,but with 15 years as a parts man and parts manager I can guess.So in my mind I was probably looking at a 3000.00 or more A.C. repair. I really had the feeling that Joe was shooting estimate cost from the hip.As I have not had the time to bring my truck elsewhere for a estimate for this repair, I doubt if I will be told to replace 4 or 5 blend air door motors but I will soon be bringing the truck to another facility for another estimate.There was a 3rd issue concerning a engine light that was on when I brought the truck in and still on when I picked up the truck,but I don't feel like getting into it at this time.This was not my first time in your service department, I have bought vehicles from Colombia Ford in the past,but with all your frills that Colombia Ford has to offer I can say that I will no longer be a customer.

Received an E-reminder of 30K check on 4 x 4 Pickup. Called for appointment. Initially told I needed transmission flush, cabin filter replacement, oil change, tire rotation, engine air filter and safety check (~$460). Checked owners manual and no transmission flush required. Called another dealer AND there is no cabin filter in my vehicle. Took advantage of a front end alignment, tire balance and rotation special at local TIRE store, replaced my own engine air filter and thus when I got there only needed an oil change & safety check. Out of there for <$45.Mistake reading requirements? Overselling of services? Bottom line - trust but verify.

They arranged for me to have a rental during the time. Enterprise was there when I came in to drop my vehicle off. The process was seamless and staff there were great. It was a very welcoming site when I arrived there as I recognized most of the staff from 13 years prior when I had a major accident. They did a fabulious job then with my vehicle and did NOT disapoint me with their work this time around. The fact that the staff has been there for so many years, I feel as a customer, Gates and Columbia Ford take care of their employees and in turn they are top knotch with thier customer service and delivering on expectations. Cudos and Thank you for a great experience.

The entire staff that worked with us on this car buying experience was perfect. They matched me with the perfect fit for my budget, needs, and taste. It was a different experience working with the staff. They all wanted to make sure we were happy and satisfied. The price was right but the people made it a remarkable experience. I wish everyone could have the experience we had while buying our car.

John Senick took the time and had the patience to answer all my questions no matter how inane they were because I was a nervous wreck buying a new car. My older car was totaled early one morning as it was parked in front of my condo so I was making an unexpected purchase and totally unprepared to do that. Originally John was instrumental in getting me to try the Service Center there for the regular maintenance of my older car - and I appreciated the time they took with me in explaining the work being done to my car. It was worth the 30 minute drive even though there is a Ford dealership 5 minutes from my home. John made my purchase as stressfree as possible and he took the time to sit in the car and go over all the 'bells and whistles' the car offered. Eric took the time to go over the financing aspects of it and answered all of my questions about that too.It was just a good all around experience that I went thru - and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another car from John Senick or to refer my family or friends to him.

We went in with what we thought was an impossible situation. We have a baby coming in a couple months and had an impractical F250. We told them our financial situation without a specific car in mind and Matt went above and beyond and got us into a 2015 Optima, perfect family car that's safe, reliable and has plenty of room for all the things a baby requires as well as getting us out of a car we had a lot of negative equity in without having that negative money following up forever! These guys were great, I was apprehensive about car shopping because I've had quite a few bad experiences but I would recommend them to anyone and in fact already have to quite a few people! Thanks so much Matt!!!

We brought our 2015 Dodge Grand Caravan for a radiator repair and a couple of weeks later had an overheating issue. We dropped it off without an appointment on Saturday and got it back on Wednesday. I'm not sure how long it should have taken, but thankfully it ended up only being a bad cap and an air bubble. I understand that it needed to sit overnight to verify the bubble, so maybe the time it took was okay. There was no charge which always makes me happy. I really like the service team, they are always pleasant and I see how they try to keep the customers happy.

This was my first visit to Columbia Kia. My Sorento was due for its first oil change/service and I was dreading bringing it in, fearing the usual "up-sell" techniques of most dealerships and service centers as well as inflated prices. I was pleasantly surprised to find such friendly, honest and helpful service in such a wonderful service center. Bobby greeted me right away, listened to everything I had to say and made me feel comfortable and welcome. And when I checked out there was no attempt to sell me anything extra, or scare me into buying more service than I needed. And I felt the prices were reasonable, and Bobby even noted that there are often coupons available online for my next visit. The dealership/service center is the nicest one I've ever encountered with all their amenities! A cafe! Clean, gorgeous bathrooms! A koi pond and play area! Next time I won't need to arrange for a babysitter when I bring my car in! Comfortable, lovely waiting area. Dare I say I'm actually looking forward to my next service appointment? I wouldn't go anywhere else. I wish I had leased my Kia there instead of the awful dealership that I did.Can't say enough good things about Columbia Ford Kia. Highly recommend!

We knew exactly what we wanted in a car and had shopped around. Due to the great location of this dealership, we figured we'd give them a call and see if they wanted to make a deal. Our salesman answered all of our questions and didn't waste our time. He even drove the car to our house so we could see it in person due to a tight schedule we had that day. The credit application was completed on line, which was a great time saver and the physical paperwork signage was done very efficiently at the dealership where everyone was very pleasant and helpful. It was probably the best car buying experience I've ever had.

I was here for my first oil change, when I arrived there was a woman at the desk but she didn't actually start my paperwork until I was waiting for about 7 mins. I don't think she worked in service, but no service dept employees were around. My oil change was scheduled for 515 and I didn't leave until after 6, which is too long to wait for a simple service. Finally, the Ford website and my truck's internal tracking both say the oil change interval is 10,000 miles; however the technician have me a sticker stating the interval is 5000. In fairness I didn't notice the sticker until I got home and didn't get to ask the service writer. I'm not sure which is correct. Those negatives aside, the staff was very polite and professional and the shop and service area were very clean and comfortable. By fast the nicest waiting area I've been in.

I arrived early, was greeted quickly with a friendly smile and warm hello. We reviewed what was going to be done, signed the required paperwork, was told about the free coffee in the Thunderbird Grill, and asked to have a seat and they would come and find me in about an hour. An hour give or take, and two cups of coffee later, my representative came and found me. We went over what had been done, recommendations of the technician, and collecting of payment, I was asked if I wanted to make a future appointment, wanted to receive an email or text message reminder, handed my paperwork, which was stapled together, and wished a good day. This is the way service is supposed to be.

This dealership can do that because the product speaks for itself. I knew what I wanted and if I wanted it I'd come back for it and they knew that too.

I had found the truck I wanted. It was absolutely perfect for my needs. I had financing in hand when I went to speak with Steve Murphy. He could see that I was enthusiastic about this vehicle. But instead of ramming the sale through he, and the Columbia team took the time and found a better financing package for me. Steve was very good to work with. He was upfront and honest and if he didn't know an answer he said so and found the answer quickly.I was also impressed with the dealership itself. Very clean and nicely appointed. But the most impressive thing to me was that members of the Columbia team that I hadn't even talked to greeted me by name when I walked through the door after my first visit.As far as I'm concerned, I'm a customer for life.

My oil change and tire rotation was completed. The recall work was completed though I received an email prior to the service and it indicated that there was a $14.00 charge for the piece. I didn't think that it would apply (and it didn't) but that could upset some people. I arrived at 7:10 a.m. for a 7:30 appt. An hour and fourty minutes later I stepped outside to make a call and my car was outside. I went into service and asked if the work was completed. The young lady started to look through paperwork on her desk-area. A serviceman to my right perked up and said that my car was done which left me wondering how much longer I would have waited for someone to tell me that my car was indeed ready ! The paperwork's time was 9:11 a.m.

This was my first experience with Columbia Ford and I was completely satisfied. I informed the salesman Andy that we new exactly what vehicle we wanted to purchase and explained we just wanted their best drive away price and we would make a decision within 24 hours. Andy's manager worked the numbers and provided us with the information we needed. Although they wanted to close the deal and rather us not leave until so, they were both courteous and respected our wishes by not significantly trying to pressure us. We called back later in the day and accepted the offer.

Was properly surprised when entering such a clean, modern and professionally staffed dealership. The staff were knowledgeable of their products and also treated us with respect and good will. After dealing back and forth for the vehicle I wanted to lease we came to a agreeable conclusion. There were no points of conflict and I would recommend this dealership to all. If your in the area check out this dealer if your looking to buy or lease, new or used. To get started right ask for Andy Caldwell to receive prompt and courteous service.

I was very nervous about selecting the right car for me and my kids. However with the help of John Senick, Jimmie Bletsch, Matt Milici, and Jake Gurzler, I can say I made the right decision and feel a huge accomplishment in myself for coming and kind of stepping out of my comfort zone and buying a minivan. However it doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles but it has the seating I needed, the space I was looking for and some other things that sealed the deal for me.

Had my wife's 2015 Sedona minivan in for simple oil change and tire rotation. Driving home it felt kinda bumpy but with the roads in CT, that's par for the course. Next day (Saturday) my wife takes the kids to the store and comes back reporting the same. I go out and check the lug nuts and its amazing that they were all still there. Not even hand tightened. Just started. Luckily it didn't cause and accident but I'm not much for relying on luck. I called service department but of course they're closed on weekends. Left a message for someone to call me Mon morning but I'm writing this at half past noon and no one has bothered to call. To be fair, the people there are friendly and helpful but then again, so is the guy who bags my groceries. Not sure I want to put my family's life in his hands either.

Third new Ford truck over the past eighteen years; different CT dealer each time. Columbia Ford was the best experience so far. I found them to be very friendly and well organized. They moved at my pace and were responsive to my needs. I knew what I wanted right down to the options and color. When we couldn't find those exact features, they placed an order from the factory. Three visits in all; one to shop, another to purchase, and the last to pick up my new truck. No pressure, no hassles and no surprises.

I brought my C- Max in for its regular oil change and service as part of the service package when I bought the car. The people are friendly but the reason I would not choose this service outside of the fact that it came with the purchase is because of the limited number of things that the service includes. NO window cleaning or vacuuming is included. I know that may sound petty but with all the other oil change places in the area it is part of the service and just makes the customer feel like the car had something done to it since everything else is basically "under the hood" and you never "see" any of those results. On this particular visit I had an addition service scheduled to look at a stain on the passenger seat cleaned that I could t remove myself even though I had bought a treatment package with the purchase of the car. I talked to the sale an who I bought the car with and he arranged for the detailing people to work on the seat while I had the car in for service and I asked specifically if I should vacuum the seats and floors and he said no that they would take care of it. When I picked up the car ONLY the one seat was cleaned even though there were other dirty spots on the back seats AND as I said no vacuuming or anything else was done. I was disappointed to say the least.

I just happened to stop in on my way back from another dealership in the area and am so glad I did ! Columbia Ford is very different from most dealerships that I've dealt with in the past. The staff is very professional and personable and I can honestly say that I will never go anywhere else. Matt and Eric were wonderful and I'm very happy with my purchase and excellent customer service !!!

When my wife and I purchased our expedition at Columbia ford we paid for upgrades, warranties, etc. which caused the truck to get taxed at a higher state percentage then the norm, so the purchase was not a small one. Upon receipt of our upgrades to truck (not Ford parts, items sold at Walmart) I had to write the dealership and complain about the bait and switch tactic done which ultimately resulted in the Ford parts being installed in a brand new vehicle vs. aftermarket Walmart quality parts.Today, 12/12/15, after calling months ago (about 15k miles on truck) to discuss what I felt was a problem with the truck, I brought the truck in for tires and alignment. I had expressed my concern that the tires were wearing very unevenly and my doubt to a major alignment problem as there were no signs of it. I had called several tire places, including my hometown Ford dealer, and decided since the truck was purchased at Columbia Ford that if there was a problem its best to have the tires / alignment check done there (even though it was more expensive). The appointment was made for 12:30 with a 2 hour time to complete provided to me when scheduling visit. I took time off from work (unpaid) and brought the truck in. Rather than sitting for 2 hours my wife and I went to lunch and returned 2 hours later. When we saw the truck I was amazed that it hadn't even been touched and was in the same parking spot we left it. I visited the service desk and spoke to the person that scheduled our appointment on the phone. What I was told left me speechless when they stated they were unaware it was here. As I had taken time off from work (unpaid) and I had an appointment an hour away which required me to leave Columbia by 4 PM I was rather mad as the service folks attempted to state it was my fault they didn't know it was there. How anyone that had my keys could say that is mind boggling. They stated they would start it soon and I would be able to leave by 4 PM, at this point much less than the estimate I was originally given. I stated ok but expressed again that I was very concerned about the alignment and / or what may have caused the tires to go bald from middle to the outer side of the tires. When I was told it was done, in a little over an hour, after discussing payment, I asked the obvious question of the day about the alignment since nothing was said. I was told everything was fine. I looked through the receipt and saw no report for the alignment statistics (pre and post). It was for this one reason I brought the truck to Columbia ford (recall my earlier statement). I was told everything was ok and when I explained again why I brought the truck to Columbia I was told that the printer for the alignments had just broken. When I asked what the settings were the service advisor said they had been deleted. When I asked to speak with the service tech that performed the work they stated they were too busy. No offense, I don't believe anything I've been told and I am told to "trust" Columbia Ford. The ONLY other time I was told that I was blatantly lied to and had to point out how a bait and switch tactic that I paid handsomely for was performed. I honestly feel that the dealership is covering up something that will result in further premature tire wear costing me more money then I should be spending with such a young vehicle with so few miles. In my mind I have two options. First, take it to another place of business and have a full 4 wheel alignment be performed ensuring they know why I'm there. Second, have Columbia Ford perform another 4 wheel alignment, free of charge, and provide me the paperwork / report that I made blatantly clear was the reason it was at the dealership today.If I don't hear from Columbia Ford by the End of Day, December 29th, a week away, I will pursue option 1 above and then submit my bill to the dealership for reimbursement. I will also be reaching out to the better business bureau on 30th to submit a full report of the initial non-ford parts being installed in a new truck and this recent "trust me" experience where I feel like I was being lied to my face.I don't write reviews like this ever, oddly enough the only two I can recall are both revolving around dealings with Columbia Ford.Thank you,I'm sure you have record who had a 12:30 PM appointment for 4 new Continental tires with 4 wheel alignment.

Theresa checked the truck history to find that since the tires had been rotated at last check, they'd be rotated next at 30K. The truck was taken in on time and oil change and safety check were completed in ~ 25 minutes. Theresa made check-in & checkout easy.

To begin, I came in for the oil change with tire rotation special $40 offer. When I arrived I specifically asked to have the antifreeze topped off. When I later took the time to review the paperwork, the tech never marked that he even looked at the level of antifreeze. I knew it was about empty walking in and had to fill it myself after my visit to Columbia Ford. The tech also marked off that all of my lights are fully functional. Again, he didn't look at the car because he would have noticed both parking lights and license plate light were out and I would have had them replace. He also stated my tires need to be replaced and marked that they are in the yellow zone, therefore he decided himself that it wasn't worth it to rotate them because the service desk would be talking me into new tires. When I cashed out, that gentleman told me my tires were in the red and there was zero tread left, as if I wouldn't be looking at them myself to see this was all wrong. The tires have used tread in their 18 months but they are clearly not bald. Regardless of when I plan to purchase new tires, a rotation is what I asked for and a rotation should have been completed. Neither the service desk nor the technician obviously cared to even look at my car in the manner of the paperwork they handed me and therefore I will likely not be returning for any services unless it's a basic free of charge recall. I also waited over an hour for this nonsense before I had to find out myself if the car was finished. No one thought it was necessary to leave the desk and find the 8 month pregnant woman uncomfortably waiting just around the corner.

We had been getting service from Columbia Ford for years until we retired in 2009. Our town then got a Ford dealership which became more convenient as it was closer to get to. We travel all over the US with our F350 diesel truck & Redwood 5th wheel. So we have had had opportunities to have service in many Ford dealerships. We know good service. After several services not done to our expectations at our local dealer, we decided to go back to Columbia Ford, and we are very satisfied with their work.We have had two service visits to date, one for 30,000 miles and another for adjustment on our additional fuel tank that was not properly installed by dealer we purchased vehicle from. So far so good with the repairs to our tank.

I called the Ford Dealer for an appointment to do scheduled 40K service on my Escape. When I dropped off the vehicle I was told several items were recommended at 40K. Subsequently when I checked the owner's manual the transmission flushing was not due for over 100K more miles and a filter wasn't due for another 40K. Fool me once- next time I will make sure I read the manual and not rely on "Ford Dealer Service recommendation". I should have been informed about what was recommended by the manufacturer.

I had a very good experience with Columbia Ford's Service Department. I had recall work taken care of, my 40,000 mile service and lastly a problem with rodents nesting somewhere in my engine. The rodents died and created not only a very unpleasant odor but a potential health hazard as well. I must give great thanks to Paul one of your mechanics. He was so incredibly nice and VERY knowledgable regarding mouse problems with automobiles. He personally came out to the vehicle to discuss the problem with my husband and I. My husband had done some preliminary investigation and believed he isolated where the nest may have been and wanted to discuss this with a mechanic. I was concerned that the nest would not be able to be located or it would be incredibly time consuming and expensive for the labor to locate the problem. Much to my surprise the car was done quickly with all the work being completed. Paul located 5 dead mice and a sizable nest which he removed and cleaned the accessible areas. I was so relieved and thankful for all his hard work and expertise not to mention dealing with an unpleasant situation. Much thanks to Paul & Rachel for thier friendly service!

I only went here for an oil change because I had a factory recall. I made an appointment for 1pm and ended up waiting for 2.5 hours and watched my car sit in the parking lot for over an hour. I had to change my childrens after school arrangement because of the time I spent waiting at the dealership. When I inquired about the wait, I was informed that there were two recalls instead of one, but that still does not account for the HOUR that I sat watching my car in the parking lot. The only reason I got my oil change here was because I required a factory recall. Any other time the service is just as professional at other service center in the area.

I went to Columbia for the first time about three weeks ago to look at a truck I saw advertised online. My salesman (Matt), was very knowledgable of truck, and very polite. Unfortunately, it was a little out of my budget, and we were unable to make a sale. They were tenacious in trying to make the deal work, but were not pushy. When we weren't able to make the deal work, they understood. 3 weeks later, Ford offered better incentives and they called me, and said the truck was still available, and it might be in my price range. The sales manager (Chris), quoted me a price over the phone, honored the more then fair price they had earlier offered me for my trade. I went in the next day, and he honored the price he had quoted me, and was able to get me out of the door in the truck I wanted in a very timely manner. I was in and out of there in about 2 hours. In summary, the dealership was professional, polite, and honest.

I have two young kids and I can't believe how much they enjoy going to the dealership. The service is amazing and when they say you will be out in an hour, they are not kidding. I had my oil change scheduled for 9:30am. We dropped the keys off at the service desk and went to the cafe. Not only does Columbia Ford have wonderful staff, but the cafe staff is just as wonderful! I have only been to the dealership 3 or 4 times in the past year and everyone remembers me and my kids. We sat down at in the cafe, I got my free cup of coffee and chatted with the cook. He is probably one of the most genuinely nice people I have ever met. After we completed some school work and had a snack, we wondered the dealership looking at all the new cars and even fed the fish. Yes, they have a mini indoor pond and allow the kids to feed the fish. Right at everyone was getting antsy, Rachel brought me my paperwork and told me I was all set. No fee for this oil change and tire rotation, so we hopped in the car and it was just 10:27am just about an hour as promised. Love this place! Thank you to all the staff who make the oil change experience so wonderful!

The service department at Columbia Ford deserves the highest ratings! The friendly crew goes above and beyond the call of duty allowing me to drop my car off on a moments notice, and servicing the vehicle promptly and accurately each time. After being notified of a recall, I was given the opportunity to return my car the following day; and not only was I given a ride back to work, but the work was done quickly and professionally, as well. I can always count on Columbia Ford! Thank you, guys!!!

First let me say that I bought my truck from Columbia Ford three years ago. Sales was fantastic. I never had any issues with the service department until this time. I brought my truck in because I was having an issue with my brakes. When you pump the pedal up it would drift to the floor. (I had just had the pads replaced four weeks ago.) I received a phone call and they told me that the pistons in the calipers were pushing and warping the brake pads and in-turn warping the rotors. Thing is, is that it was doing this prior to the brake job. I questioned whether they looked at everything and she said yes. They recommend pads, resurface all four rotors. Not really sure that it would fix the problem I authorized it. I picked it up around closing time. It came to $921.00. They charged me a diagnostic fee but they also said they found a bad caliper and replaced it but didn't charge me for that because they never called me to tell me about it. Whatever! I paid, hopped in my truck and checked it. Guess what? The pedal was the same. Pump it up and drift to the floor. I went back inside they came out looked at it, never pumped up the brakes like I explained to them and they said it was normal for that truck. It never did that when I bought it. Started 3-4 months ago. Anyway they told me to drive it for the weekend and see if it feels different after I drove it for a couple days. I know a few great diesel mechanics. I had two independent mechanics look at it over the weekend at separate times. I never told them what the other said. They both agree that the diagnosis/repair that was done was not the right diagnosis/repair and they both said that the brake pedal drifting to the floor is wrong and both said the same thing as to what they found as the problem. I am now out $921.00 on a repair that didn't need to be done and my truck is not fixed. Monday I will be right back down there. Do I recommend bring your vehicle to the service department? No!

I did some online research about the car I wanted to buy and then found a great match on the Colombia Kia website. My husband and I arrived and were immediately welcomed. Tony listened to what I had to say and brought me directly to the car I had described. We took a leisurely test drive while Tony described the features to us. He assisted us with every step of our new car purchase without pressuring us. Buying a new car can be very stressful but not here. The facilities are beautiful, the staff make you comfortable, and the service is extraordinary. Processing the purchase with Eric was also efficient. Tony knew what I wanted and he and Eric delivered it. I test drove the car late Saturday and drove off with it on Monday. It was the most comfortable new car purchase I have ever experienced.

I always get good service when I go to Columbia Ford. I was not sure they would hear the noise I was concerned about in my car and not only did they hear it, they discovered it was a wheel bearing. They put my mind at ease about the cost of the repair by determining it would be covered under warranty and ordered the necessary part. The part came in within a couple of days and my repair was done quickly and efficiently.

Recently I was in the market for a new car. Having bought from the Gates Dealerships before, my mind was set in that I was going to once again give them my business. This time around I had peek interest in buying a Kia and as such I had the pleasure of working with Steve Murphy. Simply put, Steve is a no pressure salesmen. At no point did Steve try to push me in the direction of a car that I had no interest in just because they wanted to get it off of the lot. Steve was patient with me as we looked at the Kia lineup. During what was a 2 week process of car searching for me, Steve was always working for me even when I wasn't at his desk. I would receive check-in calls from Steve about new cars that he thought I would be interested in as well as trying to get me more money back on my trade-in. In the end, I fell in love with a 2016 Red Kia Forte. It was the perfect balance of appropriate upgrades for me with a sporty car look. I know that if it wasn't for Steve truly listening to me and my needs then I would still be on the market for a new car. Once Steve was done, the baton was passed to Eric Gates who helped with financing. Eric presented me with two strong offers for financing; each one presented to me had better terms than I had with my trade-in. Eric took the time and explained to me everything that I was signing and even had made copies of everything that I requested. In all, my experience with Columbia Ford Lincoln Kia was top notch. The Gates family really does have an eye for exceptional employees who really make the process of car buying so much simpler. I think it is safe to say that I will be a committed lifetime buyer to the Gates family.

Columbia Ford made the experience of purchasing a car very quick and easy. No hassle and honored the agreed upon price before my arrival (I was located 2 hours away). I have purchased many cars out of state and it is usually a hassle getting the car registered and temp plates. They took care of everything no trips to the DMV. This is a first for me and I would recommend anyone out of state to consider purchasing a car from Columbia ford. I dealt with both Steve Murphy and Eric Gates and both were very professional and excellent. Some of the most honest people in the business. I have dealt with. Its also nice to see family members working in a business together. I also recommend that columbia ford keep using Autotrader/Cars.com for selling vehicles. I never look at dealership websites its just much easier to search using these websites. And I know many others that do the same.

Recently I decided I wanted to upgrade to a newer Escape, and loving my past experiences and the excellent way I have been taking care of by Columbia Ford, there was absolutely no question that I would return to Columbia Ford. The sales dept has gone above and beyond to negotiate an affordable pricing package for me so I was able to get the vehicle I wanted. The salesman Mike Howard was very compasionate and listened to me and my request. I never felt pressured into this purchase. The entire experience was an enjoyable one and I am now loving my new 2016 Escape.

I have been having many issues with my vehicle that I purchased in JanuaryJanuary from Columbia Ford. The first time I brought it in for service for check engine light on, jerky transmission, stuttering and clicking noise in engine they told me everything was fixed with an oil change. Brought it back in July for the same issues and this time they found a bit more wrong with the car. This was after we had to help them with their diagnosis and show them we knew a bit more about car repair then they thought. We got the car back again the first week of August after them having fixed it 100%. First week in September and the check engine light is back on again. This time I dropped it off on a Thursday and they looked at it on Tuesday. They told me the check engine light wasn't on and they couldn't find anything wrong with the vehicle. It still has transmission slippage, backfiring and jerking. I used to think highly of Columbia Ford but will never be going there to fix any of my other vehicles or for purchasing another vehicle. They have lied to me numerous times and am extremely disappointed.

We went to Ford for the first time in 2000 when we owned a motorhome with a Ford chassis. We found the service excellent and Mike Pahlas (a service advisor at the time), a person to be trusted. When we needed to change our Jeep around 2006, we bought a used Ford Freestyle, and in 2013 replaced it with a Mercury Mariner in order to accommodate Robert's electric scooter. Each time we purchased a Ford product so that your service department could take care of it. Mike and Joe are the two people we have worked with the most.Personally, we are sorry to see Mike leaving, but hope that you will replace his position with someone as pleasant and trustworthy as he was.

If you dread the dealership woes of haggling and going back and forth thus is the place for you. Never have I seen salesmen, managers, and the finance department work together so well to meet your needs. Customer service is just outstanding and they truly tell you how it is and it feels like one big family. Not to mention it but you don't have their finance staff pushing hard for the extended warrenties they will show you the break downs and explain everything to you. If it make sense they feel like it will benefit they tell you just that but they don't pressure or push you into them. They are also always looking out and trying different rebates or discounts to get you the best possible deal. Yet it doesn't end there, they take you through everything about the car you could possibly want to know, that is if you want to, as well as they follow up with you to make sure everything is going alright and you are happy with the car. Overall this is an amazing dealership with even better staff. Ask for Aaron or Allen and you'll know from the start that you picked the right dealership.

I gave this review 5 stars for many reasons. 1) I was treated extremely well by everyone. I was handed a water bottle by a gentlemen I wasn't dealing directly with. Amazing. 2) Matt Milici was my salesman, and he did an extremely great job overall. I absolutely have to give him a shout out for everything he did for me today. He gave 200% effort, not just 100%. I was in a difficult situation and he was sure something could work out. And he was right. He is professional and down to earth which is pretty hard to find these days. 3) I felt a very positive vibe from everyone there. Great senses of humor, a mega bonus. 4) Eric Gates really put in over-the-top effort when going over the numbers. He's down to earth and professional. Conclusion: I didn't have a single bad experience. Not one. These guys took care of me, and I was more than happy to have done business there at Columbia Ford and Kia. Cordially, -Byron Morgan

Everyone went out of their way to make sure I was a happy customer. Steve even went to the UHaul dealer with an Explorer to discuss different hitch options for me. Jimmie worked with me for a good trade-in and Eric spent extra time going over all of the warranty options. All of my questions and concerns were taken care of.

He went above and beyond any other sales associate I have ever met. I wasn't a easy customer, and he was always right there to answer my questions with understanding of my needs. I could tell he actually cared,and wasn't just trying to sell me a truck. Highly recommend Steve for anyone looking for a Ford, or Kia vehicle. Eric Gates in finance was very friendly and explained all my options slowly so I could understand. No tricks or games. This is my second truck purchase from Columbia Ford, there were many other Ford dealers closer to me. Columbia Ford is worth the trip, even if your not close to them !

Just leased my second F-150 with Columbia Ford. This was one of the best experiences Ive ever had either leasing or buying a vehicle. From the time my wife and I were greeted upon entering the dealership through the completion of all the paperwork Columbia Ford has been top notch.Our salesman Steve Murphy was fabulous he listened to what we were looking for and never tried to push us in a different direction and ultimately came through with the right deal on the truck we were interested in.Eric Gates did our closeout paperwork quickly and never push us to take the typical last minute closing items as a courtesy he made us aware of our options at closing but that was it when we showed no interest in adding additional cost to the deal. I have bought over 6 New Fords since the last time I purchased a vehicle from Columbia Ford and I can honestly say they treat their customers better than most of the dealerships in Eastern Connecticut and hold a good inventory of vehicle choices. I currently plan to keep my business with Columbia Ford for my next Ford whenever that may be.

The service was great as usual and my only concern is that I was quoted 165 over the phone and to my surprise when I arrived the charge was 200 dollars. This has never happened before to me. Normally the price quoted is the exact price. The amount of the tire was not what I wanted to pay. I could have gotten a cheaper tire elsewhere and paid for the diagnosis.

I recently purchased a truck from Columbia Ford. This was my first visit to this dealership. I was very impressed with the relaxed atmosphere. When I first got there I wasn't quite sure what I wanted. My salesman Matt Milici was very professional putting up with my indecisiveness. Anyway I walked out of there with a great deal and I'm very happy with the truck. After a week I found a problem with the truck. I went back to the dealership today and talked to Matt and Chris Ledoux. They are going to fix the problem for me! This is the way it should be. Not forget about you after the sale. My wife will be looking to replace her vehicle in the fall. It's a little bit of a trip but we .will be backthanks! Bob Teslof

I have been coming to this dealer since 1992. Have bought vehicles here. I deal mostly with service and sometimes parts. Mike Pahlas and his service team are the best in the industry, and I have been to a lot of dealers even in other states. Not only is the service great, but they treat you like one of the family, with respect. They go out of their way to accommodate customers, and make sure my vehicle is fixed right the first time.Technician Paul Danieluk is an absolute genius! His working knowledge and attention to details of vehicles is simply amazing. The building and customer accommodations are awesome, buts its not about the building, its the people.

I was told it would be about an hour to change the oil and rotate the tires on my Edge but it turned out to be less than that. That also includes the multi-point inspection they normally perform.

John was a great dealer. I am 20 years old and I went to Columbia Ford looking to buy my first car. I was originally overwhelmed by the process because I just moved out of my parents house and the idea of spending every penny I had saved since I was 16 was daunting to say the least. My parents came with me to help because I don't really know much about cars. The days before I went to Columbia ford I had gone to other dealerships but I just didn't feel 100% comfortable and taken care of at any of them (honestly I was met with a lot of dealers who spoke down to me as if I was in infant). John Senick at Columbia Ford was nothing like that. He made me feel comfortable and well informed but also treated me with respect and acknowledged that I was the one ultimately making the decision. Not only that but John really did his very best to get me the best deal on a great car. He came back to me with an offer that was far better than any expectations I could have had and I simply couldn't refuse. He was great about working around my work schedule when coming to pick up the car. When dealing with the paperwork and finances Eric Gates was also very friendly and down to earth. I couldn't be happier with my 2011 Hyundai Elantra. In all I had a wonderful experience at Columbia Ford and I would encourage anyone to request John Senick when buying their next car. You won't be disappointed!

I brought my car in to have new brakes installed. I was due for new brakes so I purchased aftermarket upgraded drilled and slotted brakes to cure the morning squeel. These are advertised to reduce this issue. Like a lot of cars these days my 2012 Taurus would get a slight coating of rust on the rotors over night and I'd hear this squeel backing out of the driveway every morning. The new brakes have been installed. The squeel is gone. Columbia Ford did it for slightly less than was quoted over the phone even with the oil change added to the service. As usual everyone was very nice and the service was excellent. There are a few Ford dealerships closer to me than Columbia but it's definitely worth the trip.

Everyone at Columbia was very pleasant to work with but my salesman Matt Milici was great! Matt went well out of his way to make sure everything from the price of my car to service to putting my plates on it was done correctly. Also followed up to make sure I was happy with everything. I looked for the right car for almost three months at all different dealers around CT. I was sick and tired of sales people trying to get it over on me one way or the other. All car sales people are the same! That's what I was sure of till I met Matt! A real man not a salesperson looking to screw you. I felt as ease thru the whole process. I can't thank him enough! It was the way it should be at all dealers but IT'S NOT. Thanks Matt for everything. I'll be glad to recommend Columbia Ford thanks to you and I never thought I'd say that! Thanks, Tom Casso

I was introduced to Steve, who promptly made me feel comfortable and made a search for the vehicle which suited me best. The car was brought from a nearby lot so I could look it over and test drive it. I was not rushed and was able to drive the car home to show it to my wife as well. I was treated respectfully and the negotiation involving my trade-in was quite smooth. I appreciated the low pressure sales manner I experienced.

They are courteous, patient and friendly. You would be hard pressed to find a better purchasing experience, imo. The facility is pretty great on it's own, complete with a waterfall and Koi pond (my kid loved it), living room w/ fireplace. And the food in the Cafe is very good (i recommend going for service in the AM and hanging out in the cafe for breakfast). Good segway.... Service dept staff are very polite (which is a rarity at most dealerships I've been to). The crew doing the work are fast and clean.

There was no game playing and they worked hard to make sure that we were satisfied. It is well worth the trip to Columbia and I will highly recommend them to all my friends.

I have had a couple issues in the last few months w/ a vehicle purchased.1. Came in for my first oil change. Waited one hour, then was told they ordered the wrong oil filter and I had to wait longer. Total weight time was 2 hours.2. Scheduled appointment for my check engine light, was told when I came in that I was also scheduled for an oil change, communication issues here as I just had an oil change a month prior.3. Came to have check engine light fixed on 5/1. No sooner getting to my location i received a call asking if my light came back on because the service tech forgot to put a part back on my jeep. (Thank you for coming to my house and putting it on) but the point is, it was forgot while at the dealership.4. Today 5/4 my check engine light is back on....

I purchased a vehicle previously from Aaron which was totally a top notch experience from the beginning to driving off the lot with my new vehicle. I will add that the service and parts departments, excellent service, certainly add great value with doing business at Columbia Ford. Needed to upgrade my vehicle so I contacted Aaron. This time I needed to make sure all the financial segments were meeting my objectives in order to reach a deal with my vehicle of choice/options. Needless to say much to what I expected was spot on and I get to drive off in my new Escape. Like to mention that Chris Ledoux and Eric Gates were great to work with as well. Columbia Ford is friendly, down to earth, great customer service and if your buying a vehicle ask for Aaron.

We purchased a used 2010 Toyota RAV4. After some negotiation, I think we got a really good deal. A wise friend of mine told me to never trust anyone except my mother. Taking that advice, we brought the RAV down to our trusted mechanic of 8 years. He went through the vehicle and pronounced that it was in fantastic shape and agreed that we received a good deal after we told him what we paid for it. So, as far as dealerships go, I would recommend Columbia Ford to a friend or family. I was happy with our experience there. As always, a car dealership will always be a car dealership and you have to stick to your guns when it comes to negotiating.

It's been quite a few years since I bought a new car and I was amazed at how painless and easy they made the process, despite me having some circumstances they might not deal with every day. The shop is very comfortable and accommodating, and put me at such ease, I was able to catch a nap while they worked with the banks for my approvals.

No problems at all with my recent visit.Just a small comment though...I spent many years with GMC. It was a difficult decision for me to moving over to Ford. While with GMC, all of my service had been performed by Scranton Motors. I truly loved their service. The one thing I enjoyed the most was the washing of my vehicle. Every time I went for service and when the service was complete, Scranton motors would bring my vehicle around and the vehicle had been washed. I enjoyed that part the service the most. Scanton Motors knew that whenever one of their vehicles left the lot clean and shinny it was truly a reflection on them. What a great idea. It not only made me feel good but when I drove down the road everyone one would check out the newly washed shinny vehicle. So, whatever little it cost to wash my vehicle was well worth the effort.

I recently went into the dealership to make a purchase but was tight on time so surprisingly the sales person listened and told us he would run the different senerios and have the information for us the following day. What I hate the most is someone who ignores a request and doesn't follow through. I walked into the dealership the following day and to my surprise the information was presented. With a couple of minor obstacles out of the way we made a purchase. So far we have had some additional things come up requiring us to have further contact with the sales team and still they go out of there way to ensure our confidence stays with them. After all we might go back and buy another vehicle right? Guess what we did! There is one thing in my opinion that needs to be addressed and that is access to the window sticker through the web site, Is not available. Thank you Aaron Guilbeault and the Columbia Ford sales team.

They are a family owned dealership who cares about your experience and treats you like a neighbor. Which by the way my salesman (Eric Miller) just happened to be. Eric was great to work with. He listened to my needs and fulfilled them. I went in with a budget for a used car. And he was able to turn that into a brand new car. I never thought I would leave with a new car but he and Columbia Ford/KIA made it happen. I will recommend Eric Miller and Columbia Ford/KIA to anyone looking to buy a car. New or Used.

I never felt pressured or patronized during the entire process, nor was there any sense of impatience on their part as I pressed for additional compromises to close the deal. I was treated very well - even offered lunch and beverages as I waited on the paperwork. The one area that I felt was less than optimal was the wait. Given past experiences, I feel there may some opportuity for process improvements to gain efficienies in this area. Overall the paperwork took double the amount of time I expected based on experiences at other dealerships.

Aaron was fantastic! Friendly, courteous and knowledgable. The deal was fair w/o a lot of back and forth. The car was exactly what my wife wanted , unfortunately, on the way home to MA the car vibrated at 50-70mph, the rear-view mirror couldn't focus because of shaking and is still doing it. We called Aaron immediately and he is working to get us into our local Ford dealer to rectify the problem. We took the car home the same day as purchasing and thus, Columbia didn't have a chance to road test...other than this disappointment, Aaron, Erick Gates and the entire experience were top-notch. We'd buy from Aaron again w/o question....he is an asset to your company, BTW, my wife and I thought your dealership was outstanding and fun. We'll be back for sure.

Great, personalized service. Chris Messier went above and beyond in 2012 to find a car for my daughter. Tony Mauro took her for the test drive and made the sale and delivery awesome. It is a Kia Rio 2012. She loves the car. Service is great. Free oil changes and tire rotations for two years.Just leased a Kia Optima. I have been a Nissan customer for over 10 years. This car is wonderful, with more bang for my buck than the Maxima I owned before. Spoke to Jake prior to arriving at the dealership. With one left in college, I didn't want to use too much of my savings. Again, I sat with Tony Mauro to determine the best car for my money and within a budget to get me through the next two years with minimal expenses. Chris Messier stopped in to say hello and they all made it so easy. Free oil changes and tire rotations for two years, 100,000/10 year warranty. The car drives like a dream and I love it.

I recently emailed two different managers regarding a small problem with my older vehicle; never heard back. Must have been too small of a problem for them to address/ be concerned with. Extremely disappointing--seeing that my late father had done business with them in the past and sent many customers their way. I guess bigger ISN'T always better....

Shopping for a vehicle is something that many of us dread having to do but when we entered the lot at Columbia Ford that feeling quickly left us. The service we received from Mike Howard was excellent! He was helpful and easy going and provided us with enough facts on several vehicles to make smart choices for our family. He took his time and we test drove several vehicles before finding one we loved. The whole purchase process was painless and we bought the car the same day. Our first experience with the service department came with our first oil change and again we were pleasantly surprised by the exceptional service we received from every person at the dealership. I have recommend Columbia Ford to several people since purchasing our vehicle! Even though the dealership is more than 30 minutes from our home we will continue to have our service performed there because of the high caliber of all the staff at Columbia Ford.

I had a few issues with my Kia Optima rental car. They towed in into the shop and after hours of review, they noticed that some wires had been chewed under the hood which affected my waring lights and window washers. Very unusual happening. They repaired the wired and tested the car for hours to make sure that all was ok. All the employees are very pleasant and helpful. I am so glad that I leased from this dealership as I have never had such good car. The facilities are clean and beautiful.

We were unable to ever purchase a car in the Windham area because no one could beat the prices we could get out of town. Even when we would go to a dealership with prices quoted from competitor's it didn't do us any good. One snowy Sunday we decided to just go "look", but the dealership was open and we had an awesome salesman who in no way was pushy. Had that been the case we would be totally turned off and left. Turns out we bought the car we saw, a Sorento, and we were very happy with the car and the whole buying process. Then just two years later we were made an offer on another car. We were given a more than fair price for the trade and then we bought another Kia, this time a Sportage. We love this car for its looks and reliability. The dealership staff was so friendly and the process was easy even though buying a car takes a bit of time. The place is nicely decorated and pleasant to be in for service. We highly recommend this dealership for its fairness in pricing, availability of vehicles and most of all the friendliness and professionalism by all the staff.

I have purchased two Super Duty trucks from Columbia Ford over the past few years. With a Ford Certified Master Technician in the family (now working for the state), I trust his faith in this dealer for both sales and warranty service. As an aside, unfortuaately, the front end customer service experience at the Collision Center (a Gates affiliate) was a different story, and we elected to have our repair work performed aelsewhere following a minor motor vehicle accident with insurance coverage. As for the dealership, kudos!

Last two times I had maintenance done only some was done but there was no charge given by the maintenance manager. Be ready to wait or may even have to bring the car back to have the rest of the maintenance completed. I don't know what has happened to the maintenance department because all the times before the work was completed on time and all parts were always available. All the work that was completed has been very good and the parts used have been top shelf.

Since it was my second I thought that they did not go all out like they did on my first purchase but in the end about a month later they did make it up.

My experience started off very good dealing with my sales person Mr. Tony Mauro, he made the whole process smooth and easy. During the process I shared with Mr. Mauro that the vehicle was being purchased to install a snow plow. We continued with the finalization of the purchase, when Mr. Mauro asked whether I would be interested in a extended warranty, I replied that I would as I was purchasing a used truck. It all went to crap after that!I took my vehicle that I just bought and left for my summer home in Maine where I stay for the summer. On my trip I found the door cover to the gas cap faulty and the CD player non-functioning along with the passenger side window motor not working. At this time I figured that I wasn't going to drive back over four hundred miles to address these issues, that I would do it when I returned to the area which I did. I was told by Ms. Theresa Gendreau the Service Writer that the window motor would be covered under the extended warranty but that the gas door cover and the CD would not be. I then asked why the gas cap cover would not be covered under the original sales warranty? The answer was because I didn't bring it back within the allotted time. I would have had to travel back over four hundred miles and another four hundred miles plus back to have something done about it. My thought was if they would have done the necessary repairs if I stayed in the area that they would do the repairs when I returned. I then was told that I would have to speak to the sales manager whom also told me that there was nothing that he could do. Through all of this never once did they offer any resolution to any issues I was having. The best part is when I actually read the extended warranty in the exclusion section and discovered that it states that if you use your vehicle for snow plowing that it would void any warranty. REMINDER - I told the salesman that I was purchasing this truck for snow removal. I spoke to the salesman about this and he did not recollect that in our conversation and also he would not know what is coveredand what is not covered in a warranty! How can he sell something that he knows nothing about? I was then told that I could cancel the extended policy. Why would I want to pay for something that was worthless? Of course the cancellation would have to be prorated and a fee of $25.00 would have to be charged. Can you imagine my displeasure at this time? Jake the gentleman who was dealing with the cancelation reached in his own pocket to give me the fee because I was so upset. I at that time said that I thought that he was making this out to be a joke which was far from where I was. I refused his offer.Once they got my money and there was nothing left to do or say I departed Columbia Ford - NEVER TO RETURN.Glenn BeaulieuA Completely Dissatisfied Buyer

I have bought my last several vehicles (at least the last four) from John Senick and every single time he has provided an excellent experience. John is very friendly and knowledgeable and has gone above and beyond in helping us find the right match in each of these car buying experiences. He listened closely to the goals and concerns specific to each of the buying events, then applied these in helping us locate a vehicle that met all our goals and expectations. Whether it was a new or used vehicle, passenger car, mini van or truck, he has always made sure to find the right match that fit our needs and our budget. On two occasions he was able to locate a brand new vehicle at a better value then similar used vehicles.I will most certainly, without any hesitation, get in touch with John when it is time for us to replace our next vehicle.

Very accommodating service. Salesperson, Chris Magnano, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and promptly returned calls & texts. Chris invested the time to find the best vehicle match for me. Dale Thompson, affectionately referred to as "Badger", was very knowledgeable about the auto industry and provided good advice on how to deal with insurance claims for damaged vehicles. General Sales Manager, Chris Messier, is a very personable family man who is hard not to like. Columbia Ford Kia has an Enterprise car rental on premises and they made arrangements to return my car rental on my behalf, even though the rental was from an Enterprise in Colchester. On the day of delivery, my bank wouldn't clear the insurance check that I needed for my down payment until the next day. Columbia Ford Kia let me drive home my car with a dealer plate until the check cleared. Also, Chris took the time to explain every feature of the vehicle. He even set up the Bluetooth connection between my phone and the car. Overall, I highly recommend Columbia Ford Kia. The team is courteous, professional, and accommodating. If you're thirsty, they have plenty of cold, bottled water compliments of the house.

100% Satisfied....Excellent customer service level by Allen!!! His sincere empathy and understanding of my situation (negative equity with a vehicle purchased from another dealer) along with his knowledge and experience made my decision to purchase very easy. I appreciate how Allen gave me several options to improve my financial dilemma and how he was very genuine in making honest and practical suggestions to improve my situation. After I reached my decision to purchase, Allen (and Matt in Financing) went above and beyond when processing the sale and my new car delivery great. I felt like my interests and financial complications were taken very seriously and there was no feeling at any time of a dealership just trying to push a new car on me. As a result of the positive experience and professionalism carried out by Allen and staff, I am convinced that Columbia Ford is where I would like to develop a long term relationship with for future car purchases (my kids and girlfriend). Great job by all!

No questions at the moment. I was recommended to Columbia by a friend and am VERY glad that I was. Tony Mauro was extremely professional and went out of his way to make certain that I received exactly what I was looking for. I actually had seen the very truck I wanted at another dealership but purchased from Columbia because of the fantastic service that I was given by Tony. As a resident of MA with a dealership 5 miles from my home it would have been "easier" to purchase closer to home. But, because of Tony and your team I would absolutely make the decision to make the 1 hour drive to get my next vehicle at Columbia.

I had decent experience with the sales staff, however when it came time for service ... completely different experience. I have a leak in the passengers side from the A/C. Brought it in to get it fixed ... had to make another appt because they needed to take it a part and could have it 3 or more days. When I inquired about a loaner vehicle they said they don't have them, but they could get me a discounted rate on a rental at enterprise. This car is 4 months old ... why should I have to pay any $ for a rental when this is under warranty? They wouldn't budge on this ... then I mentioned that I might have to go else where to get it serviced ... they said fine. Apparently my business is not wanted and thats fine with me. I will never have my car serviced here again. Nor will I buy another car here again. Sorry Mr. Gates, but you've lost a customer for good.

From start to finish Ed Carpenter was very helpful with any questions my father and I had about the newer Ford trucks. He showed us total respect and friendliness throughout the deal. Buying a new vehicle has never been so easy. I had done a weeks worth of internet shopping before I even placed a call. I knew the right price to pay, and Ed even made the price better after sitting down with him. Based on past experience with the Columia Ford servic dept., I wanted to buy from Columbia Ford anyway. Owned Fords my entire life. Believe their trucks to be the best, and a great dealership experience makes me a more solid Ford customer.Thanks a bunch,Dennis P. Jolley

I started working with Ed Carpenter in 2012 and leased a new 2012 kia optima SE (totally loaded). Since then, I have purchashed two NEW Ford F-150 pick up trucks for my pest control business, and a used Ford Escape for my Son who just graduated High School. Ed is a Fantastic Salesman with NO hard sell tactics or like any "typical" salesperson. I was just in the dealership today to Lease a NEW 2013 Kia Optima for my mother, AND a NEW Kia Rio for my soon to be son-in-law. If all goes well, I will be in next week to look into buying a used car for my Neice. I have NO DOUBTS that i will continue to visit Ed Carpenter at Columbia Ford Kia for every addtional car/truck that i may ever need. Dean Vatteroni (owner of All Seasons Budget Pest Control)

VERY disappointed!!! I saw a few cars online that I liked. I used their "Black Book" estimater to get an idea of a trade in price on my car. I also used Kelly Blue Book to cross reference my trade in value. A salesman called me and invited me to make an appointment to see a few cars. We made an appointment for that night. When we got there, the car we wanted to see had "just left the lot" (first disappointment) but he was happy to show us more expensive cars. Despite that, we saw a few we liked. We went inside to talk numbers and after waiting about another 20 min, they stated the car we had was worth about 1/2 the KBB and their Black Book price. When asked why, the manager finally came out and told us that he agreed the car ran great and was in great condition, but there are many of those cars at auction and thats all he could get. They refused to stand behind their own website estimate or KBB. They even suggested we should have talked to a manger before making the 25 min drive to double check what the sales person said on the phone?! DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME with a place that wants to rip you off with the your trade in amount. We were there 2 hours!!! The only nice thing I can say is that the decor is nice and my kids enjoyed feeding the fish. What a joke!!!!!

Tony was awesome!! And so was our entire experience at Columbia Ford!! We took a drive from Mystic on our Harley to check out trucks and have lunch at Columbia Fords cafe, which sadly was closed on Sunday. We walked in, showed Tony the 3 trucks we were interested in, discussed the internet pricing that prompted us to come in, and took a test drive. Knowing we were hungry, Tony fed us crackers and candy and supplied us with water. We were very thankful for that! In less than 2 hours we had left a deposit with an agreement to pick the truck up the next day. After shopping for a Ford F150 for a few weeks, we finally found a salesperson and dealership that worked with what we as customers wanted and didnt give us a run-around. No wasted time waiting on negotiations and managers coming over to try to sell us on what we were not comfortable with. We got more than we ever expected!!Well be back soon to check out that Cafe, but the next time we come in to buy, it wont be because of internet pricing, it will be because of the good customer service, fair pricing and ease of doing business. Thank you Tony and Columbia Ford. You have made us very happy customers!!

Eric came in on his day off to accommodate my busy work schedule and was always readily available by phone and email, unlike other sales consultants who were slow to respond to my questions.Matt Rosenlund did a great job getting me a good interest rate on my loan and fully explaining all of the paperwork. Eric and Columbia Ford took what is usually a difficult ordeal and turned it into a positive experience. I will be recommending them to everyone who asks about my new car.

I was very pleased with the attentive customer support I was given by Justin Chaine as I began the process of looking for a car. He allowed me to complete several test drives in order to narrow down the focus of my search. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Kia Soul+ was not only the vehicle I had been searching for, but that Justin, Henry, and Chris were so willing to work with me to bring one home. From start to finish all of the gentlemen with whom I worked were polite, professional, and ready to listen to what I wanted in a vehicle. This is my second purchase from the dealership and I do not plan for it to be the last. I am thrilled with my Kia Soul and love it more every time I drive it. Kudos to Columbia Ford Kia and its team of sales and management personnel who helped to make this dream a reality!

Once we went back to working with Jake ( we had been working with him online and when we came in we were "passed" off to Eric) everything was great. Jake was honest and did everything possible to make the sale go smoothly. I will picking up my Kia Sorento tomorrow, 3/1, and cannot wait! I am very excited to drive my new Kia and work with this dealership. I also meet with one of the general managers, Chris, who was amazing as well. Overall, this experience was good. It would have been great except for the hiccup in the beginning when we first arrived, but Chris and Jake definitely made up for it.

For me, car buying is always a harrowing experience. This time it was not. No pressure to upgrade, no pressure to BUY NOW, patience on the salesman's part, answers to all my questions and a straight answer when he did not have the answer. His honesty was refreshing. Craig Gates has done a wonderful job in putting customer satisfaction and customer service first. The whole atmosphere of the dealership was customer oriented. It will be a pleasure to take a book in, sit in front of a fire on a comfortable couch and wait for my car to be serviced. Perhaps I will have a snack while I wait.Eric Miller was an outstanding customer service person. He is pleasant, engaging and knowledgeable without being pushy or aggressive. He went out of his way to accommodate me and be sensitive to my needs ie: time schedule etc.This was a very different experience, a pleasurable one. Thank you Craig Gates for making a dealership that responds to the customers needs and wants.

The trucks we looked at yesterday were very nice, but that is not what stuck out about our experience at Columbia Ford, it was the people - it was Eric Miller and his professional and friendly, considerate manner. It was Rick, "the Internet Guy" that just made it impossible for us not to come down after his friendly manner on the phone. It was the way Eric took the time to show us around, to explain to us more about the dealership, it was the way he engaged us about our family and what brought us in there. All of it was an outstanding experience! We live within 20 minutes of 4 Ford dealerships and because of their sales people and their lousy service departments, we were actually considering NOT buying a Ford for our next purchase. Because of our dealings with Eric and Rick yesterday, our faith in the "blue oval" has been restored - even if your dealership is an hour away from home. :)

My current car died and I was desparate to get into a vehicle. I do not have much money and I was renting a car from where I work, costing me approximately 30$ per day. John not only was able to find a used car that is in my budget but put me in the car even though I had not qualified for the loan at the time. Chris and Matt worked together to make it all happen with the loan, Chris even treated me to a lunch, while I waited for John to make it all happen. John is coming to my work today to pick up the car and give it one more once over before they give it to me. I have some follow up work to do with money, but my experiance has been great. John, Chris and Matt, all came together to make this happen for me. I would be really stuck if they did not pull out all the stops for me. I really appreciate their service and will have no trouble letting other's know that this is the place to go. Thanks again, for all that you have done. SincerelyJim MellorGM Uhaul of Columbia.

Dealership personnel were a pleasure to deal with. I never like the process of purchasing a car, because I never feel like a "great" deal, and even this time I wonder if I could have done better on the trade in by negotiating harder or selling it myself for a few thousand more. But....it was as pleasant or more pleasant than other sales transactions I've been involved with and would likely go back. The new purchase was 'eased' by my companys Ford X-plan which took lots of the "pain" out. Hal Miller the sales consultant was a pleasure to deal with, as was Matt in finance. Jake was my email contact literally for months and did a good enthusiastic job of following up without being a pest. I also visited a competitor in Hartford, and Columbia Ford just felt much more comfortable. One very minor issue; the truck railing cap has a piece that is not fully inserted and a discerning eye can see that the cap is not fully in. I'll likely try to get that addressed when I bring it in for an oil change.

We came to this dealership because it had 2 of the exact trucks that we were looking for. We showed up about an hour before closing on a Saturday, took the truck for a test drive and ended up buying it that day. The people at the dealership were wonderful to work with. From the finance gentleman (Greg I think? ) to the manager that Aaron worked with all made the experience a good one. The paperwork took a little bit to process and they ended up waiting for us to finish up before closing but never made us feel rushed. We would recommend Columbia Ford to anyone.

I was shoping for a new F-350 a couple of weeks ago and found one that I liked at a differant dealership on a Saturday. While I was looking through the Sunday paper I saw that Columbia Ford was open. I called and spoke with Hal Miller and was told to come on down and they would beat the other dealerships price. Well after 3 hours of the waiting around game for a price with my girlfriend, they were not even close. They were $10,000 off and said that no one could sell that truck for that price. Well I bought it for $10,000 less at another dealership! So if you want to waste your time, then go to Columbia Ford.

Columbia Ford is probably one of the finast dealerships that my wife and I have done business with. Having purchased numerous Mustangs in our lives some dealerships give you the shudders when you go in. Columbia Ford makes you feel welcome and treats you like family. The atmosphere is one of comfort.Our sales rep, Eric Miller was more than helpful, in fact he bought us lunch. Eric had to make numerous trips back and forth throughout the day to complete the deal.In all our experience with Columbia Ford was GREAT and we plan to make future purchases there.Our purchase was a 2009 Shelby Mustang 500..

The staff at Columbia Ford was exceptional from Sharon at the front desk to everyone involved with our buying experience.Eric was exceptional. Taking the time to show me the inventory, explaining the details of the vehicles. He knew his stuff and was easy to talk to.The process of putting together the numbers and deal went well (only delay was caused because I didn't bring payoff figures). Trade in value for my previous vehicle was right in line with what I researched online.Nothing but good things to say about my experience with Columbia Ford.

The sales staff were very nice with great personality. My problems were with the organization, I am a single parent and I work over 40 hours a week. I was told the staff would take care of everything and I did more work than I was hoping for. My tire light is still on in my car, the inside of the car was dirty when I got it and there was a crack in the winshild (a small one) that I was not told about. My car recieved a "coat" to protect the paint that costs 400 dollars and I never approved that. When I had to sign the papers for it I was told that my father had approved it on the car when he went to check it. The price of the car was great and my parents have bought from the dealership berfore, also my daughter loved the fish and the candy. The intital customer service was great but the rest was not organized.

Ed was able to find me almost exactly what I wanted. Despite my many phone calls and my constant indicision Ed was able to decipher exactly what I wanted and needed.This experience is well worth sharing. Buying a car is not something I do every day.

I was very pleased with my purchase experience at Columbia Ford Kia. Terry St Onge, Sales Representative was knowledgable of the Ford product line and vehicle features. He provided helpful advice for selecting the right vehicle. The Sales Manager, Matt and the Finance Associate were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful as well.I decided to visit the dealership because they had the product inventory of the model that I was interested in purchasing. Additionally, their practice of posting the internet price gave me an indication of what I might expect to pay. The actual price paid turned out to be less than that which coupled with factory sponsored financing incentives made the decision to purchase easy.

I also worked with Chris Messier whom also did an outstanding job. He answered my questions, called me back in a timely manner and was professional. I have recommended this dealership to family and hope that they have the same experience. I look forward to continuing my business in Columbia.

We purchased a 2012 Taurus Limited with Ed Carpenter as our sales representative. While I did mark "No" that we were not given a tour, I wanted to emphasize the reason for that is because my husband has been purchasing automotive parts there for 20 years with respect to an autobody repair shop he owns (Classic Auto East Hampton CT)and is very familar with the layout of the dealership; therefore we self-toured. Ed was very knowledgable of the interior operations of the car, which helped me a great deal as the female owner. He assisted me with navigation, voice activation, sound system, and the informational panel of the vehicle. I drove away thinking I had a pretty good handle on how to operate the vehicle with his instructions. He also assisted me with recognition of my mobile device. Ed was also not a pushy salesman, which is key in my mind. From our initial test drive to our purchase, he was very attentive to finding the exact vehicle we were looking for as we were very specific and his return phone calls were never pushy or persistent, which allowed us to think through our purchase without pressure. I do have one follow-up question on a certain symbol that is displaying on my screen, which I cannot seem to find in the owners manual or the navigation documentation. if Ed could please contact me at my work number, that would be great. The number is 860-580-1810. It was a pleasure doing business with Ed Carpenter.

We have always gone out of town to purchase cars because we were honestly not able to do business with other dealers in town. It was just a coincidence that we should stop by on a Sunday to "look" and see what was out there. Much to our surprise the dealership was open and a very nice salesman, Joe Casoni, came out to assist us. We were quite impressed with the dealership, especially our salesman. He was new, but quite capable of helping us secure a vehicle that was within our budget. Our vehicle was delivered within two days after we had made our requirements known. The overall experience was so positive from beginning to end. We would highly recommend this dealership to family and friends because of the friendliness, professionalism, honesty and the caliber of all the staff.

After some shopping around we feel like we have found a dealership and salesperson that treated us well, met our expectations of service, friendliness, and hit the right blend of sales, but not pushy over the top sales.

Initially, I liked that the email I received back in response to my original email was NOT computer generated. Jake took the criteria of what I wanted and found a couple of vehicles that matched or exceeded what I wanted. He was forthcoming with pricing that was fair, and listened to my concerns about monthly payment and interest rates. When I got to the dealership he was very kind and friendly in person. Again, he listened to all my concerns and addressed each one. Moving onto Sara in the finance department was a little intimidating. All those numbers and all that paperwork can be daunting. Sara took the time to explain everything. She didn't once get frustrated if I didn't understand, she just reviewed it with me again. She also suggested some add-ons like an extended warranty, that I couldn't afford to work into my car payment but that I really wanted. Again there was NO pressure to add these on, they were merely suggested, and she gave me some alternatives that will help me purchase them in the near future. All in All I really felt like this dealership went to bat for me, valued my business, and treated me as the individual that I am, and not just another annoying customer. They won my business, and I would recommend them to anyone and would buy from them again and again.

We live 5 minutes away from two other Ford Dealerships but decided to go with Columbia which is 40 minutes away! Reason for this is that we were so incredibly impressed by Ed Carpenter and Chris the manager on our initial visit to purchase a used car they had. When we changed our mind and decided to order new we stuck with them because of their honestly, personality and knowledge. We were also incredibly impressed by the facility itself, we have never seen such a "cool" dealership~ the design, the cleanliness etc..all very inviting. It was worth the long drive for the purchase.

I spent over 4 hours at the dealership and it was the most pleasant buying experience I have ever had, buying a car. All of the people I dealt with were very friendly and professional. The facility was amazing. It was worth the ride and I plan to bring mt Sportage there for service as needed.

From the moment my wife and I entered the showroom area we were impressed by it's cleanliness, decor, smiling and attentive personel. We introduced ourselves to Chris M who then placed us in professional hands of Tony Mauro. From that point on it was obvious we were with family ( not Sales People). I have always been aware of Colombia Fords good reputation but experience was far beyond my expectation. Cudos to the entire staff.

Allen was prompt about returning calls, and did everything he said he would. He was helpful and friendly, and did not apply a lot of pressure on any extras/etc. He was knowledgeable about the vehicles, the programs, etc.I was quite impressed that Chris, the GM, came over and shook our hands the day we came back to purchase to thank us for our business.Sarah (business manager) was also very easy to work with, explained everything in detail, and didn't try to push us into warranties we didn't need/etc. She was also quick to get information on the maintenance program for us, which we did end up purchasing.

I would highly recommend friends and family members to Columbia Gates dealership. The entire staff was extremely professional and courteous. Arron Guilbeault was a pleasure to work with. Arron was very professional, informative and helpful during the entire purchasing process. Sara Sutherland was also very professional and helpful in the financing process.

I have purchase many vehicles over the years and I must admit that this is the first time that my wife and I had such a pleasant experience in purchasing a vehicle. I attributed this to Allen Guidici professionalism, personality and dedication to service. Thank you Allen and thank you Columbia Ford-Kia.

I enjoyed every minute of buying my new car here. The staff was friendly, the service was remarkable, and and most of all they answered all questions with complete detail. I'm very happy with my purchase and how quickly I was able to take home my car. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pleasant experience.

We will purchase all our cars from now on as the service is the best.The sales men and everyone we dealt with from start to finish were the best. They make the purchase of a vehicle an enjoyable experience. Everyone is so friendly and accomodative. Thanks!

My brother-in-law was looking for a used car. Tony Mauro was the guy to see, he found the car we wanted for the price we gave him. Tony was very friendly, and helpful I'd recomend Columbia Ford and Tony Mauro to anyone thats looking to buy a new/used car.

I would rate this my best ever experience with a car dealership. From the minute I drove onto the lot and stepped out of my car I was treated with respect. I have had other dealers ignore me. But not here. John gave me a few minutes to wander and then approached and showed me what I was looking for. On each subsequent visit I was aleways welcomed. Every person I encountered in every department acknowledged me. I rated price as good because I would always like a better price. But the amount of car I got for my money compared to other dealerships was a good value.

Considering this was a new purchase, there were no services performed other than preparation for delivery. i was satisfied with the condition of the vehicle upon delivery, Sales Manager, John Senik, is quite knowledgable of the features and operation. There were questions I had after taking delivery in which John was more than helpful in answering.

Our experience with Columbia Ford was extraordinary! From our first contact by email until we signed on the dotted line, everyone was professional, friendly, and a pleasure to do business with. Although a little out of our way, Columbia Ford will definitely see our business again when we are in the market for a vehicle. Our daughter is thrilled with her new car! The dealership itself is clean, inviting, and unlike any dealership we have ever visited - a must see even if you aren't in the market for a car.

When I told Doug exactly what I wanted in a car he kept looking until he found it. He also gave me an unbelievable deal on the car and on my trade in. Things moved smoothly and fast. I would definitely recommend this dealer, and especially Doug, to everyone i know.

Both John and Ali were great. I walked into the store asking for a focus car, and in TWO days I was drving the focus I wanted. All the sales people are really friendly and will help you find the right car for you. Highly recommend this dealership.

John Senick was low key/no pressure! It is a pleasure to walk into this dealership. They have a great inventory, and if they don't have exactly what you want, they will find it. This is my 3rd car from them.
