This review is strictly concerning the lack of "customer service" and attention to detail. I…read morepurchased my vehicle April 28 and was told the dealership would send the titlework to the DMV. Well, they waited three weeks to submit the paperwork, and request a copy of the insurance card. I immediately sent the card and told them I had less than a week on my temp tags. I was promised a new set of temp tags would be sent to me. Well, guess what, the tags were never sent. I contacted Jenny Kichinko and was told the tags had not been sent. She said a new set would be mailed that day and also promised a copy would be emailed to me. Well, once again, they failed to come through with the email. I could not drive my car for 4 days due to their procrastination, lack of attention to detail and outright disregard for keeping a "promise." I have NEVER had such poor service from any dealership. All I got was excuses. If they would have given me the paperwork, I could have walked into the DMV and had my tags that same day. They need a complete overhaul of their office staff.

The oil change was significantly less expensive than what I typically pay in Northern Virginia, and it even included a tire rotation. I arrived at 8:30 and was completely finished by 9:30.

On the way back to Falls Church, the repair failed and the car was taken to Falls Church Ford. They fixed it, but said that Hburg Ford should reimburse me under warranty as it was their workmanship. I first spoke with Jason who agreed to refund all but the diagnostic fee (didn't understand that but agreed). I waited 4 - 6 weeks between checking in over eight months to not pester and I still don't have the refund. First, Jason wasn't there any more. Then I finally got to Brian the Service Manager. Long story short, he wouldn't even personally tell me that they weren't honoring the prior commitment and paying slightly over half what I was told previously. A very nice lady was left to that task. At that point, I gave up. I have three Ford Rangers, a Ford F-150 and a Ford Transit in addition to this Ford Fusion. For $187 savings Brian and his General Manager (it was told to me that Brian and the General Manger had discussed) left me with this sentiment. It's laughable that they said if we had returned it to their dealership they would not have charged me. We were 126 miles away so we went to the closest Ford dealer. The fact, that they know, is that we couldn't have brought it back to their dealership because it never would have made it based on their poor workmanship. I've had great experiences with Koons Falls Church Ford and Ted Britt in Chantilly. I recommend going there avoid these people that do this silly stuff. Difficult to understand the short sightedness.

I would not recommend purchasing parts from Harrisonburg ford. They will sell you parts without verifying VIN and claim as a special order. Once you pay for the item it yours, no matter what. They are supposed to be the experts and the ones who should ensure the customer is making a good decision. Instead they are about pushing product, meeting quotas, and not ensuring customer satisfaction. I urge anyone who is considering buying parts from Harrisonburg Ford to take their business to one of the other local Ford dealerships. Joshua D

I'm not sure what to say about Steven Kia... ranking is split between Kia and Toyota…read more. I received a safety recall notice for my car and went to the Steven Kia website. The website said to call or text (a number) to schedule the recall service appt. I texted twice with no response and then tried calling the number with the "response" on the other end says 'The person you are trying to reach is not accepting calls at this time...' I go to the chat on the website and ask for someone from service to contact me and the reason why. I get a text from sales...and explain my issue. She schedules my appt for me, telling me that they'll see me at the Kia location. Another text from that same number 10min later saying someone from service would be in touch with me and that my appt would be at the Toyota location. Then I requested someone from service to contact me and Logan called me within a few minutes. He was able to clear up all the confusion I was going through in that 1hr timeframe!! ------------------ Now to Toyota...Will was my advisor. Once I figured out where I was supposed to check in for my appt, it was smooth sailing. Though I was told (in one of my many scheduling interactions) to allot 3.5 hours for my appt, Will got me in and out in about an hour! WELL before the time I was told! The Toyota service center (failed to get pictures) is clean with plenty of seating. There's even a coffee and pastry area, along with other drinks and snacks for purchase!!

I took my car there to get my car inspected and an oil change.......(I had an appointment and ended up there for 2 solid hours) They want wanted me to pay almost $300 for a seven point type inspection witch I declined... I live on a fixed income and couldn't afford to do. So a little later I got a message from the mechanic and he was trying to to show me, that I needed 2 new tires which they where wanting to charge me over $300 ( that must be the magic number for the day) so I told them to put a rejection sticker on it and I'd take it somewhere else.... Someone had looked at my tires a couple days earlier and was told they should pass inspection! I was pissed. So I took it to Walmart and I had the guy check my tires and I explained to him what had happened and he did say it was a gray area but it should have passed inspection. So I went ahead and got 2 tires for less than $200. I've heard so may complaints about them but I went there anyways! I had even gotten this car from there.... NEVER AGAIN!

We have a Honda pilot that has been well kept by a family member since purchasing it new (this…read moreperson kept every file on each repair down to oil changes and often had Pohanka Honda in Fredericksburg do thorough checks). We have had a year and got the 200,000 mile service on it. When we made an appointment and brought the car in, we had to tell them 3 times to do this service since they kept saying, "just an oil change and tire rotation." They called about 30 minutes later to say it was done - they had only done an oil change and tire rotation. We repeated ourselves saying we wanted the 200,000 mile service including checking the serpentine belt. Later, they said they did it, and we took the car home. The next day, all the alarms went off and the car shut off completely - an electrical short. Thankfully, it did not happen on a main road. The next day it did, and not even jumping the car did anything. Prior to the service, no warning lights were on, no leaking, no overheating, no need to jump it ever, nothing showed any indication of issues. They check the car again - after it needing to be towed - and said there was oil on the alternator. They said it was due to a slow leak, and not their fault. All of those previously mentioned warning symptoms did not occur on this vehicle for a slow leak. While it can occur, most of these leaks (VTEC spool valve leaks) occur in Honda Odysseys, Civics, and some Acuras - not typically Pilots. Also, they said there was too much dirt on the engine and alternator to detect a leak. In reality, there was a dusting of dirt on the engine and a dark, greasy substance (I'll let you take a guess at what that could be) covering the old alternator. When we went to pick up the car for a 2nd time, the service manager said they left the old alternator in the car. Instead, they had left some of their equipment in the car, but not the alternator. So, the manager retrieved it - hopefully it was ours. There is a chance that it could've been a slow leak, but they didn't notice if oil was missing when they changed it, and 4 months had passed from the last change which occurred at a local trustworthy autoshop. None of the typical signs of a slow leak were evident. Also, the only thing the manager repeated was, "it was a slow leak that we couldn't see it to know." He did not present counter evidence other than it has happened on other types of Honda vehicles and that they didn't know to look for it. There was no acknowledgement of how dangerous that issue was to us (who have a baby) or reassurance that it was safe to drive. We had to ask if it was test-driven, who did it, and what the test looked like.

Then the Service desk lady said it was done. But needed new tires and that mine were pretty bad. Well how did it pass inspection then. She said it barely passed. She offered to sell me some budget tires for $80 ea. Which is too cheap for good tires on my SUV. So I went to a tire dealer I deal with often in Harrisonburg. And he said my tires were fine. He could have sold me $600 to,$800 set of tires, but was honest. So now I wonder if they even changed my oil and Actually inspected it. Lost confidence. Probably my last service trip.
