The entire transaction was smooth, hassle-free, and quick. Every employee I interacted with greeted me with a smile and made sure to ask if I needed anything. Delbert, Jason, and Greg were exceptional to work with. I couldn't be happier with both the experience and the vehicle from Bocker.

After being involved in an accident I needed to replace my vehicle. Where as other dealerships and…read moresalesmen tried to pressure me into buying something I didn't want, or didn't listen to what I was looking to buy, Brendon M. was attentive and willing to work with me. We showed up about an hour before close on a Friday, he stayed while we test drove vehicles and helped me look at other locations to find vehicles that fit my criteria. Even after I found the vehicle I wanted, there was an issue with my pre-approved Financing. Barkau & Sons worked with me to find new financing with better rates than I had. The dealership is good, but Brendon makes it great. If you are in the Freeport area looking for a vehicle, you can't do better than Brendon at Barkau & Sons.

One vehicle cost 3k to fix, another 3800 and the 3rd 6-10k after 1900 miles of owning it. I would NOT recommend buying a vehicle from here without a warranty. I'd have to recommend you go to Kunes instead. I will NEVER buy another vehicle from barkau....ever.

Brian explained in detail, everything about the car I was inquiring about. Brian took a deposit over the phone and assured me everything would be fine.

Fair warning!!! Do NOY buy a used vehicle from Freeport Ford unless you're looking for a LEMON!!…read moreWe were sold a 2020 Ford Escape and within the first 2 weeks the rear differential goes OUT!! Followed by the computer screen getting hot as FIRE and GLITCHED and could not be used for three days. Took it back to the service department and after being there for about a week, they found NOTHING wrong with it!! Then another week or two goes by and the LEMON starts jumping down the road. Take it back in and there were three plugs that were bad AND the ignition coil was also out and this all occurred within in a two month period of time. The vehicle spent a total of 30 days in the service department, and I felt that they owed us a car payment since they had it for month!!! So at this point, Andrew, the owner's son tells us "don't worry, if anything else goes wrong we'll put you into another vehicle". Well the last week of April 2026 the car started randomly turning off at red lights,and a message would pop up telling you to put the car in park and restart it, like seriously?¿!¡ This ALL occurred in approximately a two and a half month period. Well I spoke to Andrew, whom by the way is the owner's Son. He said he had never heard anything like the last issue but said don't worry, if anything else occurs he'd get us into another vehicle. Well my husband and I figured that they'd find something similar and get us into it. Not exactly true!! They had a 2019 (year older than the they sold us), granted it had 25K miles on it but the we have is a year newer with 50K miles and here's the kicker, they were trying to say that the MSRP is 29,000, so for 10 grand more, ya they'd get us into something else. What an absolute joke. So here we sit with a humongous and there's not a damned thing we can do about it!!! THANKS A LOT FREEPORT FORD!!!! Buyer beware when purchasing a used car from them and do yourself a favor, read all the negative reviews from different review sites. Trust me you'll be glad that you didn't buy a lemon from there and bought a vehicle from a more reputable dealership and didn't get a JUNKER from FREEPORT FORD!!!!!
