Such a mixed experience we had at Prime. David, the salesman, was everything you could ask for. He was friendly, knowledgeable and eager to help us out. We already knew what car we wanted to test drive so he had it brought inside so we could check it out on a very cold day. Took it for a ride and came back to start our negotiations. Now the bad part. Ian. Ian the sales manager started to insert himself into the picture every time David got up from his seat. If you could picture a slimy, slick, condescending used car salesman....You'd have Ian. After the third time Ian inserted himself into the process we told David that if Ian did so again we were walking out the door. Ian stayed in the back room for 2 more offers while we were negotiating, but just couldn't help himself and came back again. So we got up and left. We would have purchased the car if not for Ian's insistence on butting into the process with his slimy tactics and smarmy demeanor. I feel bad for David and any other salesmen who have their deals ruined by Ian. read more

After Sunnyside in Holden closed, I came here twice. First time I was charged a ridiculous amount for the service done. 2nd time I went in for an AC repair, they charged me $800 and a month later, the AC was not working again. I will not go back here. The prices are extremely high and the service was not great. read more

Three hours for an oil change? Absolutely ridiculous. Send a text half way through trying to upsell products and services rather than have a conversation about it. read more

My wife and I Just Bought a car from here today from Pete Mathieu and he was and IS the most pleasant , un pressured salesman we've ever encountered ( if only they were all like that ) .. we had more fun chatting with him than buying the car !!! I will continue to buy from this place as long as Pete is here. Thank you so much for the amazingly fun experience! Aly & Charlene Prudhomme. read more

FAT Shout Out to Service Advisor Bert Surrell for going above and beyond! What could have been a $2,300 fix (and what I fully planned to pay), he found to be under warranty. (Yes, I should have known that, but I didn't cuz I am forever getting mail notifications to extend my warranty, which makes me assume it's over--so don't call me crazy.) Not sure it's Bert's job to do that research but he did. So, imagine my delight at a $00.00 charge! Plus, he was just aces all around--quick to return calls, at the ready with an update. Thanks for working like a champ, Bert! read more

Brought a car I was given for work in for a quick service once a couple years ago. I now receive mail 3-4 times per month offering to buy 'my' vehicle as a trade and receive a sales call once every 1-2 weeks from them even though I've called on many occasions and asked to be taken off their mailing list as I do not own a Ford. Each time they send me to three different people to talk with until someone tells me they will remove my name from their sales list. I then continue to get inundated with calls and mailings with no interruption. Be warned ... if you go here once, you'll be spammed nonstop from them even years later and after many attempts to stop it. Also, the service price was 30% higher than most non-dealer mechanics. They were the closest spot to tow the car to when it stopped working which forced me to accept the higher price. read more

Purchased a used Mini Countryman from IRA. Was fairly stress free including negotiations and they gave me a fair deal on the car as well as my trade-in. Since the car was only on the lot for 2 days, I had to wait a few weeks for the title to come in. The car was a surprise birthday gift for my wife so I had requested to come in, do all the paperwork and get out the door before a specific time before my wife came home. They took care of everything, car was cleaned and ready to go including paperwork. Steve was fantastic, very personable and made the whole process quick and painless even with having my kids with me. I was in and out the door within an hour and got home to surprise my wife and she absolutely loved the car. Thank you guys again! read more

Made an appt to have my expedition serviced, needed an oil change, the driver side window looked at, a recall completed and to have them look at the sunroof to see why I was getting condensation. Made the appt on Saturday, they said to bring it in at 9 on Mon morning, but it would need to be kept until Tuesday to assess the possible leak, they would order the parts for the recall now. Understood, I rent a car since they have no loaners available and I have to work. Call Tues at 1 to find out when the truck will be ready, only to be told it hasn't even been started yet. Finally took it in at 2:30, never ordered the parts for the recall. Will NEVER go back. Should have learned the first time, this is the third time they have done this to me. Do not recommend IRA Ford. read more

I happen to own the most in-demand vehicle on the road currently, due to a confluence of factors, that I don't happen to have use of. Ira Ford Auburn gave me a competitive bid and as I tried to make arrangements for the sale at the agreed upon figure, suddenly the sand started shifting. Smelling a bait and switch, I asserted that I didn't want to have my time wasted, and ta da! they chose not to continue the deal. Negotiation is a given but honorable business dealings are hard to come by in this neck of the woods, so I've come to learn. Ira Ford did not prove otherwise. So ask yourself before you engage here, is your integrity or desperation for sale? And is it worth what little money is at play over this dealership or any other? read more

Let's talk about Prime Ford. The salesman, who's name I have forgotten, may possibly be the worst salesman on the planet. Not personable, knowledgeable or acceptable. The back and forth "negotiation" that was staged by himself and the manager, was laughable. Said salesman attempted to keep the title to my vehicle, even though I was trying to leave. Salesperson genuinely chased me while I was leaving, trying to get back my business. It was the worst experience I've ever had at any retail establishment. Do not go here. There are other Ford Dealerships. If you need a Ford and have to buy it in Auburn, hire a security guard to come with you, in case that sales guy tries to chase you when you leave. read more

Ira Ford Auburn - Hell on Earth. - Car Dealers Near Me - Auburn, Massachusetts

Horrible experience. I went in with a problem I had already diagnosed that required a $15 part to fix my air conditioning. My intent was to judge their service department prior to buying a car there. Perhaps taking advantage of the July heat, Ira quoted me almost $600 without ever actually inspecting the car. If I was more cynical, this almost sounds like fraud. Moreover, Ira doesn't respect your time. I had a scheduled appointment, but I was told "the guys are just getting back from lunch so it may be awhile." Two hours of waiting is unacceptable. And they never responded to my email complaint. They simply don't care about customers. Do not buy or shop with Ira Motor Group is the lesson I learned. (Fixed the car myself for $15 in under an hour). read more

Do NOT bring your car to IRA for service. My husband and I purchased our car at IRA and brought it hoping to get good service due to an issue with our vehicle and they are terrible with communication, don't call back, and barely give you an update with what is going on your car. Literally had to leave a message BEGGING them to call us back. Save yourself the headache. Haven't had our car in over a week. read more

Had a bad experience trying to do a test drive in the past second time going was treated much better.

Gene is the absolutely best! Very professional, comfortable atmosphere, we definitely recommend this dealer! read more

Recently bought a truck that needed "some work" to get it ready for inspection. Turns out they didn't bother to actually start doing the work until after they sold the vehicle. After finally picking up the vehicle, it has to be towed the first day its on the road. Being polite simply does not compensate for incompetence. This was a customer service fail. read more

We couldn't come to an agreement & the manager called me back yelling on the phone I highly do not recommend this wheeling and dealing dealership ,& they didn't like it when I told them about the manager they hired totally screwed me at herb chambers when he worked there. read more

We had a deal that didn't work out but I HIGHLY recommend salesman Dave Haynes. Incredibly nice guy who's not trying to up-sell. He wants to get you the best deal possible. Honestly wanted the guy to be my friend. He truly is "your friendly neighborhood car guy." DO NOT go to Vince. Total sleaze. Dealt with him for fifteen minutes while waiting for Dave and ended up telling him we'd rather work with Dave. Thanks for everything, man!! read more

Ira ford is definitely the best Ford Dealer in Massachusetts! While there are bigger high volume dealerships around, Ira sets the bar far higher with an incredibly attentive and customer service driven team. My salesman, Ryan Trease was spot on throughout the entire sales process of my new Mach-E. While ford had some delays and recalls, both Ryan and the General Manager, Mike, frequently reached out to provide updates and make sure I had everything I needed to ensure a smooth and enjoyable sales process. The service department has also been great with my other car. While the big dealerships will make you wait months for an appointment, Ira can often get you in same day and are honest about the services you need. I have bought fords from other dealers in the past but Ira will be my exclusive for sales and maintenance moving forward. read more

We enjoyed a Five-star shopping experience on the internet. Lauren is reliable and knowledgeable. She doesn't leave you hanging for information and is back to you in minutes. Prime Ford Auburn bent over backward for us and we will continue to use them as our number one Ford Dealer in the future. Be sure to deal with Lauren and you'll never stress out. Straight answers and no misleading information. I didn't have the opportunity to meet the rest of the staff but look forward to meeting them in the next few weeks as we continue to shop. read more

I talked to a manager Lauren Ostiguy about a 2017 MKZ. she sent me a Ipacket that had pictures and info. She said it was a trade in. then she said they were waiting for the title and it could take two weeks but i could go see it and put a deposit I said I lived 5 hours away. I told her I was booking a hotel for the night. called me just before I left that the car had a coolant hose leak that maybe I should not come. I said would they fix it she said yes. I told her I already paid for hotel and if they would fix it I would look at the car. Once I arrived she sent some elst to talk to me. Ask me if I new the details about the car. Turns out the previous owner could not fix it and sold it to them. When I saw the car it looked like a horders car a complete mess. Garbage,chips, engine issues etx. I said I was done, I would never have driven to see a car that was a garbage dump that was not maintained for 20k. When I asked about the photos they turned out to be two years old. Then a guy who never talked to me came yelling that they told me the cars condition. Run away read more

They have the worst service department I've had to deal with and NO CUSTOMER LOYALTY. I bought my Ford 150 From Prime Ford Auburn Ma, serviced my truck their, bought tires and brakes from them and when I replaced a wiper motor that lasted 2 years and one month the warranty was 2 years it was over by 1 month they wouldn't work with me me at all. I wouldn't buy anything from them and would tell other customers to do the same read more

The worse experience I've ever had buying a vehicle!!! I went to Prime Ford in Auburn, MA to purchase my first Truck ever. I specifically told the salesman ( Jim Leslie) that I wanted to buy an F150 to plow my small commercial lot with. Within a week I started noticing the back up park aid assist and a few other things not working properly. When I scheduled to bring the truck in for service I asked the service manager to show me what I needed to do when I put a plow on the truck. Unfortunately, thats when I was told that the truck is not meant to plow with and the truck didn't have the snow plow prep package which I was told initially it did. I was now stuck with a truck that wasn't equipped to plow with. After talking with the general manager ( Scoot Webber) he assured me that I could plow with the truck and to call his mechanic. Well, his mechanic, Ford engineering and a several plow stores all said to me that I couldn't put a plow on this truck and that it would damage many things on the truck. So, when I called Scoot Webber back to tell him my findings he suggested I come down to the dealership and test drive another truck that had the snow plow prep package. This only gets worse. When I decided to trade in the truck and buy the truck that they should've sold me to begin with I was not given a fair value for my truck and could not take advantage of any rebates. Despite the loss and not being happy I had no other choice and decided to make the purchase. The day that I came to pick up the new truck Scoot Webber said that I will be getting a survey and that I better leave a good review and if I left the dealership a negative review I was not allowed back to the dealership ever again, and when I told him he's not the one to make decisions for me He started harassing me and was hostile, antagonist, rude and very unprofessional to say the least. Avoid this dealership they are scam artist, do not trust what they say and I will never go back and yes I have spread the word to many people who ask me about my truck. read more

I was looking for a Ford Escape found one in truecar app at Prime Ford called told them it would take an hour to travel there. Got there checked out the car, wife didn't like it. They showed us a second car, wife didn't like it. So they listened to what she was saying and tested a third car. Wife loved it. Still loves it Thankyou everybody at Prime. Happy wife happy life. read more

Brought it in for an oil change and alignment. Made an appointment for 8 am when I dropped it off told them would be back at 1230 and they told me no problem will be done. Came back just after one since that's the latest I had a ride. And truck wasn't done waited till after 2 pm and to find out they only did the oil change!!! Couldn't do the alignment so took 6 plus hours to change the oil. What's the point of making an appointment read more

I stopped in here last week to look around as I narrow down my choices for my next vehicle. Usually stopping at a dealership is a pain in the you know what, but this visit was anything but. I exited from my vehicle and. Ran right into Elmer. I received the predictable friendly greeting one would expect. I explained right up front that I was just looking and had no intention of buying that day. This is where my visit took a sudden turn to the unexpected. He was quite nice in showing me a couple of different vehicles to help me narrow my choices. There was absolutely no hard sell whatsoever. Elmer, if you happen to read this, I will be back to see you if I ultimately decide to go with a Ford. To everyone else, they are closed on Sundays. read more

Don't even bother shopping here. Brought back an issue we had after 2 months and wouldn't fix the issue after keeping the car four days. Service department has poor communication and no sense of urgency. Service manager speaks to customers like he is superior to them. Spend your money where it's appreciated---- In regards to the reply I received from Matt I did speak sit and meet with the service manager and apparently he spoke with the general manager saying they wouldn't fix the issue. I have already been back and the issue was not fixed nor was anyone willing to fix it. I had the truck 2 months stand by the product you sell. read more

Dishonest. Purchased an extended warranty (Ford warranty, not a third-party warranty) and was told that it covered everything mechanical and electrical. I was told that all I would ever pay if anything failed was a 100 dollar deductible. Sounds great. Shame on me for believing them. I bring my Edge in because the driver's side door sensor isn't working. I drop off the keys and the serviceman says, "We'll let you know if your warranty covers this." To which I respond, "I was told the warranty covers everything." His response was, "Yeah, they may have said that but when you walk in the door, 'Everything' doesn't always mean 'Everything.'" Long story made short; I get a call and nothing is covered by the warranty. I can pay for the repairs, totaling over $700.00 (included in that cost is an oil change I requested) or I can pay for the diagnostic fees totaling well over $100.00. Not only will I never buy a car from them again, I will make sure to advise my Parents and my Office Manager, both of which have purchased cars in the past, of my experience in the hopes that they stay as far away as possible. I feel as though I've just been robbed. read more

So if I could do zero stars I would. I ordered my new f250 truck Dec 2, 2021, and I was told it would be ready in 90-120 days. After 90 days I called for an update an was told it was not ready but they would keep me posted. After 120 days I was told if I didn't get the bed liner I could get it faster so I said ok. After 140 days I called and finally they said oh we forgot to order it! But we have a f350 that we will work with you on it so I said ok what's the deal. They told me it list for 47k but they would wave the 4K fee they were going to tack on. I said I was all set. I would recommend you look for a different Ford dealership!!! read more

Let me start this off by saying for the past month we have been dealing with a major issue caused by the negligent work from techs at Midas in Auburn. They broke the rack and pinion in our car and tried to cover it up and have been avoiding reimbursing us for the damage.  That's where Zach and the Prime ford team came into play.  We had our vehicle towed to here after the Midas debacle and from the get go Zach and his team were fantastic. They were thorough, understanding, and committed to fixing the damage caused by Midas. Within 30 minutes of having the vehicle on the lift the techs diagnosed the issue and had a full report for us with parts, pricing, and timeline for repair. Unfortunately due to covid some things we're going to arrive later than we wanted but Zach provided us with a loner car so our day to day lives would not be interrupted.  They kept in touch throughout the process and actually ended up completing the work a week ahead of schedule. We cannot express our gratitude to the techs and Zach for taking such a stressful and horrible situation and correcting it.  That is great customer service and quality. We have made sure to let our friends and neighbors in the area know about our experience and will definitely be bringing our vehicles back to Prime for future maintenance and repairs. THANK YOU ALL! read more

My air bag recall was completed with a plus. The wiring for my after market camera was neatly tucked away after their work was completed. A loaner car was provide which was beyond my expectation , a 2018 Ford F150 King Ranch edition was a nice touch. The detailed inspection report was welcomed. My car was available when they agreed. Thanks read more

Was looking for a long bed single cab truck which is hard to find these days with all the yuppies demanding crew cabs and extended cabs...anyway, an internet search led me to this place because they had the model I was looking for. The sale was OK...not the best deal, probably not the worst. Got shafted on the trade-in and took what I could get. Had to renegotiate back and forth between managers for 3 hours and finally got NEAR where I wanted, but still over my budget. Sucked it up and signed the deal. This is where everything went south...financing. They tell me they can get me a 1.99% rate with a local credit union. Of course I need to become a member. A whole friggin $5. But wait, the finance guy (Tim Lavoie) said that they would open an account for me and deposit $10...well that was just one of their lies. When I told him that I already deal with enough banks and can get the same rate through a bank I already do business with, he asked what bank...when I told him the name of my bank he hemmed and hawed about their business hours and how inconvenient it is for him...I figured I better let him do it the way he is accustomed or he will screw it up for sure. So we're good, and he sets me up with an appointment a few days later at 5:30 PM to finish the paperwork and pick up the truck. I'm there at 5:00 to make sure I am there in time for an inspection sticker. He sees me at 8:15. I guess I was on Ireland's time schedule. Then he proceeds to try to up-sell me on anything and everything you can think of...at one point I got frustrated with him and raised my voice where he quickly recognized he had overstepped and backed off. I signed what I had to and got the hell out of there. Then, the paperwork between him and the bank got all screwed up by the bank and I had to spend two separate Saturdays driving way the heck out to Sturbridge, because the local branches are closed on Saturday (how convenient) until I got so tired off their preferred bank's screw-ups (there were multiple cases) that I refinanced the entire loan through my own bank and cancelled all business with the one they referred me to. Should have made them do it MY way and it would have saved me a couple of Saturdays. And making me wait over 2 hours past my appointment time is not only inconsiderate, but unprofessional. Will not be back there ever again, read more

My 11 year son and I enjoyed are time at Prime. We made many visits to the lot looking at f150 s before I decided to buy. The sales staff never made me feel pressured, they gave my son and I the space to discover the truck that was right for are needs. When I finally made up my mind they were great to deal with. Delivery went great. And we love the truck. read more

This is the kind of dealership bad movies are made about. We were in the market for a new Ford Fusion Energi, it took 3 trips to Prime Auburn to even find a salesperson to talk to us.and he was very derogatory, knew nothing about the car we were interested it. Tried to push us into a used 2015 ( I think) rather than the 2017 we wanted. Even worse he outright lied about the features of the car. Argued with us insisting that the Ford Energi could use the Tesla Superchargers in Auburn Mall. Insulted our intelligence by saying our trade-in ( an 8 year old Volvo S-80 AWD ) was only worth $500 as a trade in. So we ended up at another Ford dealer and purchased the car we wanted at a far better price ( over $5000 less ) than Prime and they gave us a fair $4000 trade in for the Volvo. Now 4 months later we get a notice that there is an issue with the radio in the car and we need to bring it into " any Ford dealer" to get it replaced. Well Prime is closer so we call them . They tell us that they don't do warranty work on cars not purchased from them. If we bring it in they will have to charge us to diagnose the problem and see if the issue we were notified about by Ford is actually covered by warranty but doubt that it will be. Since the " radio" is part of the Ford Sync3 that controls everything in the car I expect that replacing it will probably end up costing us almost as much as we paid for the car. I have no idea what the issue is that Ford notified us is. The radio has always worked fine. Okay, there have been 2 instances that it seems to have lost sync with Sirius and we need to call them to re-activate it. read more

To keep the story short I will just say that I highly suggest going elsewhere to buy your car, they will not stand behind it if you have issues. I wouldn't say to buy a different brand yet but definitely another dealer. read more

I had gone over to Prime ford a few days ago just to test drive the Ford Escape. Jesse the associate that helped me showed me the exact car I wanted and did not pressure me at all in the process. I was very comfortable going back in today and talking to Jesse and the guys over there and was able to get the car I wanted for pretty close to the $ I wanted to pay. When it came time to go through the Financing, Jim was very straight forward and honest about what he could and could not do for me. I loved it! I hate when people beat around the bush and waste my time and the guys here valued my time as much as there own. I have driven fords in the past and will for the future. Best Customer Service you will receive with a dealership. They genuinely want to help you find what your looking for, and take pride in their customer service. I will be a customer for life! read more

Ira Ford Auburn - Successful car buying experience :-) - Car Dealers Near Me - Auburn, Massachusetts

Not Internet Friendly with a Trade I made a request of the dealer about a used truck. Amanda promptly and professionally got back to me. I found her professional and very knowledgeable about the used 2019 truck I was interested in. I am not local to the dealership. I live about 2 hours away. I was interested in trading my 2018 F150 for the 2019. Before I took the trip up I wanted to make sure that we werein the same ballpark for the trade. I couldn't get by, we have to SEE the truck. I gave her the VIN and offered to send detail pictures of the truck. It only has 14k miles on it and is a year old. No we have to see it. I said when you see the truck if I have mislead you in any way, then shame on me and I am on my way back with no new truck. I told her that I have done business this way for years. No you have to come up here. In today's day and age, that is ridiculous. If you are going to use the internet for advertisement, then in my opinion, you have to change your policies to come out of the 20th century and into the 21st. read more
