I dropped off my car on 12/9/2025 and picked it up the same afternoon. When I dropped off my…read morevehicle, I had expressed to Michael White how it was very important to me to know if the battery cables were internally corroded, because of extensive visible white powdery corrosion on the battery post. Michael White mentioned that both cables would be thoroughly inspected and the corrosion cleaned, and I would be informed if the cables needed to be replaced. After receiving an email with a link from Visalia Ford, and checking Visalia Ford's recommendations online, I noticed that Visalia Ford was recommending a 120k miles maintenance service. I was confused because that 120k service was already completed at Visalia Ford on May 3, 2023, along with a replacement of the AC Condenser, at a total cost of $1,486.82, plus $213.19 for additional labor. I called Visalia Ford but no answer, and I had to leave a voicemail. White had returned my call and informed me that the battery service was in fact performed on my vehicle and the cables were both fine. In regard to my AC concern, he told me that the Condenser and Compressor assemblies needed to be replaced at a cost of $2,170, and that we could discuss this further in person. When I picked up the vehicle, I reminded him that I had the Condenser replaced at Visalia Ford not too long ago, and White looked surprised and, after a brief hesitation, White said that it might still be under warranty. Why didn't he check the vehicle history? That's one of the main reasons I had continually gone back to Visalia Ford, because the service department maintained a journalized history of my vehicle to assist with future servicing. Immediately after leaving Visalia Ford with my vehicle, I went home and opened the hood. No work was done to that battery (I took a picture of the dated paid invoice from Visalia Ford which I placed next to the still-corroded battery post). Based on the fact that Michael White tells a customer whatever the customer wants to hear, regardless of whether or not it is true, it is doubtful that the battery cables were even inspected by Visalia Ford, rendering my vehicle unreliable even though I entrusted it to Visalia Ford for maintenance directed specifically at keeping it reliable. Thinking for a while, I realized I had another similar issue with Visalia Ford a while back with a radiator flush in May 2023, but I didn't have time to deal with it back then, and did not follow up with Visalia Ford. Prior to May 2023 when Visalia Ford had flushed the radiator, the fluid appeared very clear. The picture I took in May 2023 showed fluid which was murky, and I recall that the picture actually depicted the radiator fluid in a much better condition than it actually appeared during direct visual observation in-person. For many years now, dating back to the 2000s, I have spent thousands upon thousands of dollars for service at Visalia Ford, and Visalia Ford did not return the loyalty to me even though I was paying cash in exchange for it. I can no longer trust Visalia Ford, and with a good conscience I cannot recommend Visalia Ford to members of my church, neighbors and family because I care about them too much, and based upon my experiences, Visalia Ford's service department is NOT trustworthy. A person should be able to pay Visalia Ford to do work without having to double-check to verify Visalia Ford actually completed it, and have to follow up with Visalia Ford once you learn they actually did NOT do the work which they invoiced, and which you actually paid for. This issue was raised to Visalia Ford and they never refunded the invoiced charges which were paid in full. February 27, 2025 Reply: Thank you for your Jan. 13, 2026 reply. You have my contact information in your database, it has not changed in over a decade. You use the word sorry, and state that you tried calling me for a refund, but you never promised any internal review or audit of your shop's failure, to actually cure the problem for future customers. I guess without any changes, others who attempt to get good service are likely at risk to be told what they want to hear too, without the actual work performed, as in my case. Tulare and Exeter have dealerships which I will now trust. As for the refund you claim to want to complete, I paid with my credit card and you can reverse that charge. Also, my address has not changed in over a decade, and its been in your database for over a decade--confirmed again on the date I paid you, if you were sincere about a refund. I was very disappointed with the service at Visalia Ford.
