Outstanding Sales Representative

by SueVicious on 01/25/2024

Deborah Sebastian was great to work with. I felt as though her goal was to get me the best car for my budget with no hard sale or “sales tricks.” She’s very friendly and was concerned about my customer satisfaction.

Southgate Ford, Southgate, Michigan

by Gregory on 02/23/2024

1. Very pleased with the knowledge of our salesperson with the vehicle's features and with his helpfulness in handling the transaction process. 2. Not very pleased that the dealership--immediately upon completion of the "sale"--tries to sell various extra protection plans that cost significant money and uses sales tactics that, while not truly "high-pressure", try to instill a strong fear about a wide range of possible situations that could cost significant "out-of-pocket" costs so that the buyer feels under pressure to make immediate decisions after just completing the lengthy and mildly stressful process of purchasing a new vehicle. 3. Not happy that Ford promotes 3-year "bumper-to-bumper" warranty, but the extra-coverage sales rep then says that there are exceptions that can cost the customer out-of-pocket funds to fix. 4. Were forced to return to the dealership after the Parts Department ordered the wrong rubber floor mats for the vehicle.

Danielle always goes above and beyond to make my leasing experience the best. I would never consider buying or leasing from any where other than Southgate Ford.

Ford Maverick

by NRankine on 12/04/2023

I ordered my Maverick through James Dryer over a year ago. It was very delayed due to the strike and supply issues. Jim did a really great job of keeping me updated on the status of the build. As soon as my truck arrived, he made sure it was prepped in a day so that I could get it as soon as possible. Smooth transaction. Great service! I love my new truck. Thank you!

Horrible Service Run from this place

by Hgflynn on 12/26/2022

Horrible Oil. Change Facility. Never go here. Screwed up the oil changed by not replacing the oil fill cap. Cleaned the mess up after I drove 200 miles without the cap. Then returned my new vehicle with a damaged rear rim. When I emailed them about it, I got no response. I am proceeding with legal action. Run far and fast from this place. You would think the owner would want to talk. If I could leave NO STARS I would!!!!

Southgate Ford

by Robert, P. on 12/16/2022

I took my Fusion for "The Works" package in the afternoon of 12/15/2022. Normally I take it first thing in the morning so there were 3 or 4 vehicles ahead of me in line. Still I felt the line moved relatively quickly. It wasn't long until I was waiting inside in the lounge. Everyone I dealt with was professional, courteous and new their job.

2020 Edge

by Geo-Who on 08/05/2022

Southgate Ford has been our go to dealer for several times years. Always good service and helpful, friendly staff. After leasing several Edges, we decided to purchase the latest one. Everyone was great in helping us with our decision.

Dishonest and Deceitful

by Alex on 03/01/2022

Terrible experience at a dishonest dealership. Salesperson tried to add an additional $1000 to our lease buyout and hoped we wouldn't notice. This dealership is after your money and does not care about your situation. They will do this to anyone that comes in to process a lease buyout. DO NOT use this dealership. This stealership will try and take advantage of you and do not care about retaining your future business. I've had good experiences with their parts and service departments, but I will never be returning here for anything. Please look over and re-check your paperwork if you've done any business here.

Southgate Ford and sales person Katie exceeded expectations

by dorisandnick on 01/16/2020

This was our first experience as customer of Southgate Ford. This dealership but foremost our sales person Katie Jesulaitis exceeded our expectation. When do you have a sales person calling you and reviewing an offer and the details after 9pm, when it's convenient for the customer but the dealership is closed? That exactly what Katie did. She's a hard working sales person, who honors her promises and commitments. The rest of the leasing process was also very smooth and pushy. All was explained and at the end we got our picture with the car. This is our best experience with any car dealer so far. Keep up the good work!
