Be careful as this sales store uses deceptive pricing practices! Thieves When buying items in person. This exact gasket was priced at $64 in the store. However, when I showed the item to the employee at the desk on Saturday at 1:50 PM, he mentioned that I could order it online and pick it up on Monday for less. It would have been a $88 difference. Pay $140 or order online and pick up for $53.43. read more

Capitol Ford - You can pay $140 at capitol Ford or buy online and pick up for way cheaper. - Car Dealers Near Me - San Jose, California

Bad experience at this dealership. I'm a very black and white, no BS type of person. Transparency is key especially in having all the information to make a decision like purchasing a new car. What I got was the exact opposite. DO NOT LIE TO A CUSTOMER. DO NOT ask your finance guy to come over and lie to a customer. If you don't know the answers or you're not sure, get someone who is. Don't waste my time. Curtis, you act like a 12-year little girl. You were beyond annoying, catty and acting as though you and your time is so important. News flash buddy, I'm the customer. I'm one one making the purchase. MY time is what matters here, not yours. You are there and paid to do a job. So do it or pass me along to someone else who can. Don't like me, too bad. Had I of decided to come back to finish purchasing here, it would have been with a different sales person but since I didn't feel like my business was wanted or appreciated, I actually went ahead a took my business elsewhere and thank GOD I did because It was a great expereince, NO BS, and I love my new vehicle. read more

Capitol Ford - My 2025 Mazda ! - Car Dealers Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm always honest and tell it how it is. I wait a few months to see how things go post purchase, to gauge the total experience. Shopped around regionally for a new F150 to replace my Lemoned 2023 Ram 2500. To say I wasn't thrilled to be shopping again is an understatement. I knew the price I wanted to be at, as well as how low other dealers were going on similarly optioned models. Contacted the dealer and started to negotiate via text with Dale (great communication) to see if this dealer would be worth my time. I ended up driving an hour to the dealer a few days earlier than planned and started the process with Edgar (very nice, professional, and a good sense of humor). I recommend everyone start their process with him. MVP! The only part that rubbed me wrong (hence 4 star) was the demeanor and a few things said by another employee while negotiating. That was reflected in my after purchase survey and rectified by their stud of a Sales VP Scott! (I still owe you that tequila). 4 months and 10k miles later I'm mostly satisfied with my purchase. I had 1 "break down" around 3k miles due to software issues (no fault of the dealer) that resulted in a tow and 5 days out of service. Normally I'd understand new cars having quirks, but after my 2023 Cummins needed a new motor at 6,000 miles it definitely struck a nerve. That said, Dale, Edgar, and especially Scott are class acts. When the time comes for another vehicle for myself or co-workers, CapitolFord or another DGDG dealer will be our first stop. read more

Great experience all around! My husband and I came to this Ford dealership after visiting two others beforehand. We were on the hunt for a specific truck -- a hybrid Ford Maverick -- but the previous dealerships didn't have it and kept trying to push other models. As soon as we arrived here, we were greeted and helped by Dale, who was extremely knowledgeable and clearly knew what he was talking about. We mentioned we were just looking and planned to come back later once we decided, but that didn't change his level of customer service. He still gave us the opportunity to test drive, view different color options in person, and never once made us feel pressured. By the end of our visit, we were so impressed with his professionalism that we decided to make the purchase that same day. The whole process was smooth and easy -- the staff was friendly, personable, and even offered drinks while we waited. We highly recommend this dealership for your next Ford purchase. Thank you, Dale, for making our experience so enjoyable! read more

My recent experience with Capitol Ford began last week when we test drove a used Ford, the car was not ready to be driven as it has been in past experiences with test driving a vehicle. This a pink flag, not quite red yet. Then when we went inside to consider our options, Angelo was going to run my credit with asking and we only knew when my husband asked what he was doing, so my husband immediately said no. Then I found a a car I wanted to purchase and was in touch with Angelo again to come in on Sunday after he told me to come see the car. When we arrived, a completely different salesmen had to tell Angelo that the car was not even on the lot, but that it had been given out as a loaner and had been gone for 4 days, Angelo had no clue. This was extremely disappointing and after reading other reviews, it seems this has been the same experience for many people, it's just BAD BUSINESS. In the mean time sales managers from the dealership had been keeping me updated by texting me, first asking how they can get my business on the Ford Explorer I looked at( didn't look at an Explorer), then corrected to the car I was going to see, then later that day I get another text saying "Hi Peggy....were gonna get the car back tonight" (my name is not Peggy). I let them know they weren't speaking to Peggy, they had a long day. These things may seem insignificant to some but I've been a part of others car buying processes and these are not professional interactions and are somewhat off putting. But I still wanted to buy this used vehicle so I put it out of my mind, hoping for better. Hopes be damned. They got the car back in a day later, washed it and I arranged to come see it . I went fully prepared to buy the car based on the "out the door" price I discussed with Angelo and including a slightly lowered price which he "talked with his boss" about. When we sat down to sign papers we were presented with a completely different price, that they weren't willing to move on even with us showing the the prices that Angelo said he talked with his boss about. When the manager came over he put a paper in front of us in a very matter of fact way that showed other fees (ok, fine) and a fee NOT listed on their website or ever mentioned face to face, a "Dealer Installed equipment Fee" for $795. They couldn't even tell us what they fee was or what they installed on the USED car I was going to buy. It's a vague fee that they said is on every car. It was clear they were not going to work with us even though the price miscommunication was on their end and was due to unprofessional practices and lack of transparency. The photo attached is from their DGDG site that lists other fees that aren't added, no where does it say a possible Dealer Installed equipment fee of almost $800 (not chump change). All in all, I do not plan to do business with Capitol Ford and suggest you don't waste your time either.. read more

I've now taken my car to Ford Capitol Service Center twice, and unfortunately had the same experience both times. While the staff is friendly in person, this service center appears to struggle with scheduling, capacity, and clear communication. Unless you actively and repeatedly follow up, your car does not seem to be prioritized, and updates are rarely provided without prompting. Most recently, I brought my car in for a Ford recall software update. What was scheduled as a same-day appointment turned into multiple days with minimal information, shifting explanations, and long stretches with no proactive updates at all. I experienced issues only after the car was in their possession, yet communication remained vague and reactive. If you value timely service and consistent updates, I'd strongly recommend considering a different Ford service center. read more

I came in to Ford looking for a part for my Explorer and I had no idea what the part was called. Rafael took the time to explain to me what part I needed to get. His patience and thorough service was excellent and I was able to order the correct part in order to the get the job done right. Rafael really made the experience less stressful. read more

After driving over two hours to pick up my new to me truck and going over pricing with my sales person, Capitol Ford pre-installed VIN etching on the vehicle and then presented it as a mandatory charge during pricing, even though it was not clearly advertised upfront. The finance manager specifically stated the etching was already installed on the car and could not be removed. However, after getting home and inspecting the vehicle, there was no VIN etching sticker or indication that the product had actually been installed. Under FTC CARS Rule transparency requirements, mandatory add-ons should be included in the advertised price -- not added later at the dealership. This felt misleading and deceptive. The only reason I kept the car is because I know I won't find another one like it and it was not my sales persons fault, she was great. I will be submitting complaints to the DMV and FTC regarding these practices read more

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE! I went in ready to purchase a Ford Expedition King Ranch (nearly $95k with taxes/fees). I expected basic respect when spending that kind of money, but Ryan (who called himself the sales manager) was beyond rude--worst attitude I've ever seen from a salesman. Customer service was awful. After leaving, I did more research and found the same car much cheaper elsewhere. This dealership is adding unnecessary costs on top of their cars. Save yourself the headache--go somewhere else. You'll save money and deal with people who actually want your business. read more

Bought a brand new car and after signing all the paperwork they suddenly discovered they "lost" the key. They offered to mail it to us when they found it, but over a month later and that hasn't happened. So we're stuck with just one key for a car that should have come with two. They offered to make a new key for us, but only if we came by on a specific weekday in a one hour window. The one day we made time to do that, they didn't have the right guy around to make a new key and have since been largely unresponsive to the issue. read more

I normally don't leave negative reviews, but I feel this experience is important for other customers to be aware of. This occurred in January 2026. I brought my 2018 Mustang to Capitol Ford specifically for ABS / AdvanceTrac warning lights and paid a $325 diagnostic fee. After the inspection, I was told that the issue appeared to be related to voltage (battery and battery cable), and that if repairing those items didn't resolve the problem, I would need to bring the car back for further diagnosis. I was also given a list of recommended repairs totaling over $2,500. Wanting to verify the diagnosis before moving forward, I had a free ABS scan performed elsewhere. That scan identified a left rear wheel speed sensor. I had the wheel speed sensor replaced, and the problem was fully resolved. The ABS and AdvanceTrac alerts turned off and have not returned. This confirmed that the wheel speed sensor was the cause of the warning lights I brought the vehicle in for, which was not identified or communicated to me during the paid diagnostic. While I understand that voltage issues can sometimes affect module readings, the root cause ended up being a specific wheel speed sensor failure that was immediately identified with a basic scan tool. I want to be fair and say that my service advisor was very helpful. My concern is with the diagnostic process and the fact that I paid for a diagnosis that did not identify the primary fault. I also reached out to management afterward but did not receive a response. I wanted to give the dealership the opportunity to review this privately before leaving a public review. My expectation from a dealership-level diagnostic is that the primary fault causing the warning lights would be identified and clearly communicated, especially when it is later found quickly through a basic scan and confirmed by repair. I hope this feedback leads to better diagnostic transparency for future customers. read more

Another bad experience with Ford. Took my truck in 4 times and the transmission problem is still not fixed. I asked the dealership to cover my rental difference given this is the 4th time I'm bringing it in (Ford extended warranty only covers $30/day). They've refused and said they have to first diagnose the problem. 4th time and they still do it right. He then said "why don't you just get rid of it, we can get you a new one" Given the poor experience both in the vehicle and service, how can I ???? read more

Bought a used ford explorer thinking buying a used vehicle from the dealership would run across any issues, not even a week into buying the vehicle check engine light comes on so I brought it back to dealer because not only did I want the maintenance package but also requested extended warranty. Come to find out the extended warranty wasn't added to my vehicle and even though I had only had it for a week and I already had check engine light on I was to come out of pocket for whatever issue maybe, took it to my own mechanic and he told me nothing was done to vehicle and had to pay $700 n repairs plus another $200 to have it towed from the place it left me because car was overheating. All this recall issues on the vehicle keep coming up and I'm told when I set up appointment that I would have car back in a couple hours, came to my appointment at 9am and it's 1:09pm and I'm still here waiting as others have come and gone. Worst experience with a ford vehicle and the first opportunity I have to get rid of this vehicle I'm getting another Chevy or Honda but never again will I trust a ford vehicle or set foot into a ford dealership I can say that this has been my worst experience and I will never again go with a ford. read more

Capitol Ford - Waiting area that I have been sitting since 9am and it's now 1:15pm - Car Dealers Near Me - San Jose, California

Chris at Mazda was amazing! He restored my faith in dealerships. He was patient and worked hard for us.

Absolutely not they tried to do me dirty today ! I took my car to Chevy down the street to have a sensor fitted. While there Chevy also did some diagnostics work and gave me a quote. I then had to go to Ford for a recall issue to be sorted. While at ford they also ran a diagnostic which came back completely different from Chevy's . Chevy's report had told me that two of my tyres needed replacing and brake pads. Ford's report was completely different it said everything was great no work needed and everything had been given a green mark. I questioned the ford employee and he said Chevy were wrong Obviously I was super pissed and I went back to Chevy to ask they why the two reports were polar opposite! Chevy then proceeded to show me each result manually and Chevy were completely right ! The employee at Ford was happy enough to send me off in what could have been a potential dangerous car ! read more

I do not recommend Capitol Ford for servicing your vehicle. They do not thoroughly investigate errors that other service centers diagnose. Having been dealing with months and months of the same alerts and issues, all documented with the Ford app, they were not able to diagnose the error properly, leaving me with an approximately $7K bill. This dealer and service center does not care about their customers and only care about the dollar. read more

What an awful experience. All sales staff we encountered were untruthful and hostile. I went to check out a used car from their lot with a friend, about a week ago. The car had several sizeable dents and scratches that were completely unmentioned. They did not budge on the price one cent after explicitly assuring we could negotiate "in the hundreds, not thousands" just beforehand. We were offered 9.7% APR in the salesroom. This was promptly changed to about 15% once they handed over the final paperwork, with a sorry excuse about mistaken rental records. They stood by this bait and switch until we showed photos taken of the original offer sheet. When I urged my friend to think over the purchase, the salesman became visibly angry and tried to talk over me. He threatened to not offer the same APR / sales price the next day, which was quickly corrected by the financier. (Who was aggressively blocking the exit.) At this point, we gave up on trying to discuss and promptly left. This entire team should be ashamed of themselves. What an unwelcoming and manipulative buying experience. read more

Took my 2018 72k miles truck in with engine light on. They tell me my warranty expired 14 days ago and it will cost $7,000 to fix and will need it for several days. I said I will get a second opinion and took it back after paying a $325 assessment fee. Went to a local mechanic and he said it was low on oil, changed the oil and it was fixed. What a bunch of crooks at FORD!!!!!! read more

Really good experience with Capitol Ford service department. Very efficient. Received a Ford recall notice. Service advisor Michael explained what was happening with a few vehicles and the relative importance of the software fix. Once service was completed, Capitol Ford delivered my truck to my home.

I wish I had read the poor reviews first. Came in for a simple oil change and it turned into a nightmare. Picked up my car with the check engine light on, had to return it. They claimed to fix an oil leak, but I came home to a huge oil stain in my driveway--another trip back. The techs seem incompetent, and management never returns calls. My advice: go to a different dealer. read more

I just traded my F-150 for a Maverick at Capitol Ford. It only made sense to do this if the deal was good and the trade-in value was decent, and I'm very happy to have been able to make it work - they beat the trade-in value I got from every other quote! And I got many... Andrew and Gustavo were great to work with, no nonsense, no shenanigans - straight to the numbers and a fair deal all around. Thank you Capitol Ford, very happy with my new Maverick! read more

We were shopping around hoping to upgrade to a bigger SUV and I already had my eye set on one. But brand new wasn't really an option so we decided on a used one. The sales person that helped me out was super friendly and I test drove one that I liked but didn't love. We sat down to do numbers and immediately felt super uncomfortable, the manager that came over to show me the numbers was not very nice, he wasn't at all professional. The numbers they showed me were INSANE. There was 0 room for negotiations (that's what he said to me). Something I've never heard before at a dealership.. I didn't even bother after that, I asked for my keys to my current car and we walked out. A couple months later we finally landed an AMAZING deal to a brand new SUV at a different dealership. read more

All the one star reviews of Capitol Ford's Service operation are well-deserved. All the high rated reviews are about buying a car from Capitol and my experience there was good, but once they have you their followup service is deplorable, and they apparently don't care. They overcharge (labor rates are criminal), they recommend fixing things that don't need fixing, they don't keep you informed of your vehicle's progress unless prodded, there is no quality control in the parts department... I could go on and on. Save yourself a lot of cognitive dissonance by avoiding this business. read more

I tried to buy a Ford Lightning from two other dealerships and had trouble either with sales or inventory. I called Capitol Ford and was lucky enough to have Edgar pick up. He quickly quoted me the lowest (significantly) price I had gotten (within 10 minutes). We met with him the following day, and he was able to answer all our questions, and made sure we got everything we asked for. The whole buying experience was great and we have recommended Edgar and Capitol Ford to everyone who we told about our truck. read more

Marco in the service dept is full of crap and his word means nothing. If you get him as your service agent immediately ask for someone else. I've brought my car there a total of 3 times to get my tires rotated and window jets fixed... none of it has been done. I was promised by Marco that he'll call me when parts and loaner car is available... this was back on May 8th and I'm still waiting. They did however give me free anxiety and headaches... and they don't mind at all wasting your time. Marco will make so many promises and it all sounds real nice if they were true. Over promises and under deliver seems to be the way they conduct business here. I'll take my car to Morgan Hill at the Ford Store. Please don't bother calling me after reading this Marco... you're full of it bro! read more

I came to pick someone up who dropped their car off for service. I am disabled so I generally park in the accessible spots. Luckily another area had an open spot but this truck was parked blocking an open accessible spot as well as another car that is parked in one. There is not enough room to go around them either. EtA: dropping someone off on a different day and the same thing was going on. Please ford, stop parking behind/in accessible spots! read more

I brought my vehicle to Capital Ford because the transmission -- which this dealership had already replaced twice -- was leaking again after just 9 months. I drove two hours to this location as I was told they had six technicians who specialize in hybrid transmissions and that they would be able to get to it faster than other locations, quoting me a two-day diagnostic turnaround. However, once I arrived, I was told otherwise-- that they might have my car for up to a month and wouldn't even be able to diagnose it for at least a week and that the repair might not be covered. I expected this to be a straightforward process since the repair should be covered under Ford's 12-month/12,000-mile warranty, but instead I was met with conflicting and inaccurate information. *****Disclosure: I would be lying if I stated I was calm, cool, and collected during this entire interaction. All patience and understanding went out the door when I was told multiple different answers to the same questions on the same day within the same hour. .******** After checking in, I asked to speak with the service manager to get clarity. Service manager stated the repair I came in for would not be covered because it was supposedly paid out of pocket by the previous owners. Moments later, he changed his story and admitted Ford had paid for the repair -- but still refused to confirm warranty coverage. I ended up calling Ford Customer Relations back from the waiting area, and again they confirmed the transmission should be covered. ****For the record, there is no relationship between warranty coverage and the owner of the vehicle -- the warranty applies to the part/repair itself.***** All I wanted was a straight answer: is the transmission itself covered? Instead, the service manager went in circles, saying he wouldn't know until a $299.99 diagnostic was performed, and made it sound like I'd be responsible if they determined it was "something else." Not only is this misleading, it also showed a lack of understanding of Ford's own warranty policies. To make matters worse, the service manager dismissed my concerns by saying my 2014 vehicle was "old" and that a car this old doesn't have or come with a warranty. That excuse doesn't hold up when the transmission itself is less than a year old. Warranties cover the repair and part regardless of the vehicle's age. He even went so far as to gaslight me by suggesting that "something could have happened" between December 2024 and now -- within only 10,000 miles -- to cause the issue. That's just ridiculous. If a transmission has to be replaced twice at the same dealership and is already leaking again, that points to questionable workmanship, not the age of the car or the driver. At the end of our conversation, the service manager even said that "Ford Customer Relations will say anything to get the customer off the phone." Even if that were true, it is completely unprofessional and immature to dismiss the company's own corporate support team just because I questioned the validity of what he was telling me. I ended up leaving and going to another Ford dealership closer to home, where the staff were professional, respectful, and immediately followed the correct process. I'm sure this dealership will respond and try to disagree with my review, but the facts speak for themselves: a transmission replaced twice, with the most recent one failing after only 9 months, should be enough to make anyone think twice. Everyone beware. read more
