“Well, I just got off of the phone with Ford “Customer Service”. My car needs a transmission module that for what it seems is a known problem for my 12 Ford Focus. Guess what? The warranty for this expired on 05/26/2021. The supervisor told me that everything has a time line and the warranty expired and he could not do anything for me. He told me about the pandemic and they do not have power over the production. Which I get, but how it is my fault? So, I asked the supervisor: And how it is my fault? I understand that everything has a time line. So lets do this, if everything has a timeline can you please tell me what is the timeline for the part? So, again I asked him. I see that everything has a timeline. (he told me everything has a time line and the one for my car has expired). So tell me, what is the timeline for the part for my car? This way I can make the math and calculate how much I will need to gather to pay for a rental out of pocket because Ford can not deliver the part. Because how is that my fault that Ford does not have the part? Told him, !ok I will pay the repairs. Tell me what is the timeline for the part if everything has its timeline…. Kept asking and he did not have an answer… He hang up on me and sent me directly to the survey. I will fix this and will get rid of it and #fordneveragain. My boyfriend was planning to get a Ford Explorer. Already told him that never… ever… ever… again a Ford vehicle will get into my garage. Too bad. Here I go, pay who knows how many months out of pocket for a rental.”

“Purchased a used 2015 Ford F150 in 2020. Bought the "bumper to bumper"/"full coverage" extended warranty. One year later, the drivers side catalytic converter went bad. Apparently my warranty doesn't cover catalytic converters. Very bad service and company for selling a scam to people.”

“Purchased a new 2017 Ford Explorer and the paint started peeling off the front hood in 2019. The dealer acknowledges that the cars were not primed properly. And there has been a lawsuit. Ford Motor company's response."There are no active programs at this time to repair the auto" The worst customer service correspondence I have ever seen. And it appears to be a cover up that the company does not want to address. This car has been kept in a garage and has never been in an accident. Save yourself the time and stress of dealing with a company that has ZERO customer service.”

“Ford took my fiesta in for repairs under warranty. They spent a week with it no word on what was happening. I called and they told me they needed it for a further week. They offered me a rental car .the company they use thrifty car hire are rip off merchants. They told me there were scratches on the alloy wheels when they dropped the car ,but days later told ford I did them .have looked at reviews for them and they do that all the time to customers. They wouldn't return my deposit and ford have been no help .I cant believe ford use such a bad company they should be called shifty not thrifty .I am now having to go through small claims court to get my money back .”

“Booked a ford in for diagnostic, booked for 8 am today, approx one hour job, 4 hours later both service staff confirm its in the work shop and the mechanic is still plugged in working on it, i wait outside with my partner and spot our car in the rear of the car park, we wait another 30 mins watching it eagle eyed, we go back in, ask how the car is doing, they confirm its still in workshop been worked on, "so many faults" i ask for the manager, told no, i ask again stating ill call the police if needed, service manager comes out i ask again where the car is he points in opposite direction, states still in garage running checks, needs more time, i finally after 3 different people stating they are working on my car and with a witness point to my car at rear of car park, he hands back the keys and tells us to leave!!!! Caught them out big time, who else have they done this too! Been in the motor trade 25 years, unbelievable behavior, also to add they refused toilet use after 1 hour drive to them at 8 am, refused use of chair after been walking and standing for 4 hours waiting for them!!!. Update, Police advised go trading standards. I suggest people rig their cars with hidden cameras!!!!”

“Ford continued to delay a warranty repair on my car for months. Until coincidentally, I managed to get hold of an internal email from Ford showing that she was deliberately opposing the repair. The internal document outlines Ford's policy to postpone warranty repairs for as long as possible, along with a list of possible excuses for their dealers. Only after the intervention of a lawyer was Ford willing to repair my car. Customer service 0/10 - so far my worst experience with a company ever.”

“My sat nav stop working after 3 years, funny thing is it's working in other countries like France, Germany, Holland,Belgium, Poland UK is the only country where is not working. So we went to Ford show them the proof on video like there is no problem outside UK. All tot Car was still on warranty Ford wanted me to pay £190 for them to check. According service man that could be antenna connection under the roof. We had Peugeot which get us 230 000 miles and never let us down. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND FORD CARS. IF YOU HAVE FORD AND YOU HAPPY YOU MUST BE A VERY LUCKY.”

“Feeling completely ripped off Feeling completely ripped off. I was enjoying my brand new Ford Fiesta Active. That is until the service warning and oil change came up 6000 miles early. The dealer said it was a mistake and said to take it in. So I joyfully took it in to get sorted only to be told that it was due for a £250 service, 6000 miles early and that it was not a mistake. What a total rip off. That means if every 18000 mile period I loose 6000 miles its going to cost me a small fortune in additional services by the time the car is even paid for. Totally and utterly ripped by Ford, I have gone for loving to hating this car. I will never ever buy another Ford or ever recommend them again. As a driving instructor my pupils often buy cars that I have been teaching in - I will 100% be warning them of this issue and how this con seems to work. If you want value I would recommend avoiding Ford at all costs.”

“Con artists, avoid!!!!!!!! If I could give minus stars that would be a better review. Quoted me £700 to replace a unit in car, I was travelling for weekend so took it to my local Ford when I was home. Another Ford dealership were able to fix software for Nothing! That's right, tried to con me out of £700 for work that was unnecessary. They should be ashamed of themselves! Disgusting!! AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

“Terrible company, took car in for a service and update. Nearly five weeks later car still not sorted, finally got it back still not updated so not fixed. To top it all the front of my car has been DAMAGED whilst in the garage. Would not recommend Ford customer service either as when we contacted them they didnt want to know, could not help us and had no information on my car. I would never take my car back to Fords in Speke ever. So disappointed in the whole experience and my car is still not fixed and is now damaged.”

“Non existent Customer care. After 14 calls and an email over 3 days I walked in to pick up my car (expected service an MOT) that had a host of problems, not repaired, that I was never told about - went to an independent dealer. This following the year prior where my car developed a 3 panel scratch which needed respraying after a service.”
