Hidden Fees & Keeping Keys
by Josh Vondersaar on 06/20/2025Prior to my repair, I had asked for a written quote and received a fair quote for service. While at Tom Wood Ford I asked for an oil change and a price. I authorize the pricing and move forward. What wasn't expected, after all work was… complete, were the "shop supplies" that were not quoted. These were not discussed prior to the work being performed and were unknown. Although having a written quote, and a verbal quote, a service fee of $41.57 was added. Prior to any work being done make sure you ask about all fees because if you tell them, it wasn't part of the quote, they won't remove them, and they will refuse to give you your keys. Very disappointed and they have lost a loyal customer.Josh, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. We strive for transparency every step of the way, and our team did make you aware of the shop supplies at the time. If there is anything else you would like to share or discuss, please feel free to reach out. Thank you, Larry Skains - Service & Parts Manager - 317-846-4241
False statements made by TWF can easily be proven incorrect with the quote. More so of a reason not to trust Larry as he is also the manager. The only discussion point is $41.57.

I’ve lived many places and I bought an American car this time over previous foreign ones to be supportive of our American made cars… please keep up the good job!!!!! Thank you all! May our trip be safe!!!
Horrific experience
by Colleen K on 12/17/2024Service was awful. They provided a dishonest quote and tried to get me to pay $3k for something I knew was fine before bringing it it. They were also backed up, which I was more than understanding about, however I could never get an update… when I asked. Service advisors were terribly rude and gaslighted me, implying that it was my fault that I didn’t tell them everything I knew about my vehicle.Colleen, I'm truly sorry to hear about your experience with our service team. We strive for transparency and respectful communication, so it's concerning to learn that we fell short in these areas. I would like the opportunity to address this situation personally; please feel free to reach out at your convenience. Thank you, Tyler Shogren - General Manager - 317-848-6729

Over Priced
by 2024Mustang on 05/14/2024If I could return the vehicle I would. I should have shopped around and knew better which is my own fault…. I just purchased a new vehicle and after coming home and going over everything I should have said no and left it at that, so my… fault yes. Live and learn and won’t return to buy another from them unfortunately.I'm sorry to read about your disappointment with your recent purchase. It's important that our customers feel confident and satisfied in their decisions, so we regret if this wasn't the case for you. I'd like to discuss this further and see how I can help improve your experience moving forward. Please reach out at a time convenient for you. Thank you, Bob Goodman - General Sales Manager - 317-848-6709

Dalton at Tom Wood
by William Vance on 02/25/2023Dalton helped get me into a nice 2019 ford explorer. ask for him!Donna Fields at Tom Wood 96th and Keystone Carmel, Indiana location
by Latonia Brooks on 02/25/2023I would love to come back and send friends and family. She was honest got the best deal. I ❤️ will send friends and family to this location. The best car I have got to date Thank you Donna Fields[non-permissible content removed]
by Justin R on 02/24/2023This dealership is full of [non-permissible content removed] and dishonest people. NEVER do business with them. They are a stain on the industry. Without my permission they drove my car prior to a potential trade-in (took my keys without… me knowing), damaged my car, refused to fix it or repair the damage they caused. Learned my lesson to never leave my keys behind. They are [non-permissible content removed]s. We filed a police report and will be pursuing damages to the vehicle.Two Thumbs Up for Greg Moore
by Claude on 01/09/2023I missed doing the Ford review of Greg but if I didn't I would have given him the highest marks! He kept me informed and more importantly, took the time to talk to me whenever I went to the dealership. He also saved me $$$$ when I picked… up the Ford Maverick I waited about 13 months for by reminding me the price was locked in at the time of the order. If I buy another Ford in the future it will be from him. I would, and will, recommend him to anyone wanting to purchase a new Ford.Purchase
by unknown on 09/19/2022Ordered and Purchased my new car here. Had the keys in less than a month. No complaints.Save yourself the headache
by Samantha on 01/12/2022If I could give “0” stars I would. I have been having transmission issues on my Expedition Max Platinum 2019 since I moved to Carmel in September. I have made multiple appointments for this issue. Here is the series of events. Made the… first appointment dropped off the night before the appointment and was told I would hear about it by noon the next day. By 3pm I had heard nothing. When I called they hadn’t even looked at my vehicle and I was told the diagnostics that it would require would require me to leave my vehicle with them for a full 12 hours. When I asked then why it wasn’t done while they had had it all this time they told me they didn’t realize that’s what it was dropped off for. They did get me a rental for the following day because I raised hell. But after two days with my car they “couldn’t find anything” so they returned it to me with nothing done. The problem got worse and more frequent then I received a recall notice for the CAMPHASER as well as some type of software update. I called again and made the first available appointment which was 3 weeks out (I understand because staffing shortages everywhere) and I was told the vehicle was safe to drive. Three weeks pass I bring my car in and drop it off. Once again no communication and I called earlier this time knowing how I was “forgotten” last time. I’m told they won’t do the CAMPHASERS because that’s an “all day service” YET AGAIN! They had it ALL DAY! They do the reprogram and tell me that should fix it. NOW my car is making a low deep loud hum when I hit 1300 rpm downshifting (this is an automatic) and when I try to accelerate quickly it catches slows hard then pops to the next gear. I called to make an appointment in December 26th and the first available to have my transmission checked was January 11. I scheduled the appointment and asked for an oil change as well. The girl scheduling asks if I’d like to wait with the car or drop off. Since I’ve had so many “issues” being forgotten when dropping off I told her I’d wait. Arrived with my vehicle today to have the issues addressed. And upon arrival I’m told that this is a TWO day diagnostics and they can’t get me in for THAT for another 4 weeks!!!!!! I’m beyond pissed but the oil can get changed today. So I say fine then schedule for the transmission and get the oil changed. I was there for 2 house for a “quick service” oil change! Since it HAD to be done since they made me wait so long for an appointment. Do yourself a favor avoid Tom Wood Ford at all costs. I will be having my transmission diagnosed at Andy Mohr Ford next week!Dishonorable and Shady
by Mike S on 08/30/2021Bought a 2017 expedition 8/18/21. I agreed to pay full price for the vehicle so long as a list of items were addressed: Detail, fix broken mirror/running board/seat trim, full undercoating, and ceramic coating on the paint ($500 extra). For… the undercoating, I discussed with the salesperson that I wanted the maximum protection for the car, with the entire frame protected inside/out, rockers, etc, however on paper it was just listed as undercoating. We were not in a hurry for the vehicle and told them to take as much time as they needed to complete everything right. On 8/20 we were told the car was ready. Upon pickup, the car was not undercoated at all, they forgot. The ceramic coating was applied over countless bug marks and the roof wasn't cleaned or coated at all, they said its about the protection plan and not about the coating itself, for which I could care less about a protection plan. Hands down terrible workmanship. They lost the second key and tried to say they gave it to me. Inside of the car was barely cleaned, sand and candy was in the carpet everywhere. The cup holders were now missing and I had to ask for them back. Salesperson went to the back and found them soaking in pure acetone in a failed attempt to remove the melted candy… Acetone melts many types of plastics and is a terrible chemical to uses on interior parts, nor does it dissolve candy. At this time they were closed and everyone just left us in the parking lot with all of these open issues. 8/23 salesperson refuse to honor the full undercoating even after acknowledging our verbal agreement, which, by definition, is rust proofing + undercoating for what we had discussed. I had to contact the manager, who then agreed over-the-phone to do rust-proofing/undercoating, finish the ceramic coating, re-detail, and cut a new key. They sent a driver to pickup 8/25 (we live 1.5 hr away). Received the car back 8/27 and just undercoating was applied to the underside of the floor pan and rear wheel wells, nothing else. The frame and all cavities were still fully exposed. Contacted the manager immediately and he couldn’t provide an answer until 8/30, at which time he is taking the standpoint that the undercoating is complete because that is what is on paper. Even after acknowledging that he to said they would do rust-proofing verbally, he now refuses to honor it. I have even contacted the GM, who also refuses to honor any details not explicitly spelled out in detail. All of this just to short me few hundred dollars on a $40K vehicle is absolutely ridiculous. I would not recommend Tom Wood Ford to anyone after these shady, dishonorable, and disrespectful dealings.Service Rep hung up on me
by Jamie on 11/15/2019I dropped off my truck at my designated appointment time today and five hours later they can't tell me even when my truck will be looked at. I tell Jessie Baker, in service, my disbelief and frustration. He tells me all he can tell me is… that my truck is in line and they'll look at it ASAP, but they have vehicles waiting from three days ago?! That would've been amazing to know this morning. After several rude and sarcastic comments and not service manager available i ask to speak with the GM. Jessie tells me he was told to tell me the GM will call me back. I ask to be transferred to the voicemail for the GM he said NOPE and HUNG UP ON ME! I called back and spoke with a lady name jesse at the front desk who transferred me to the voicemail for the GM. but here i am at work, no car, no idea when mine will be ready and no idea who to call at Tom Wood for helpWorst car dealership
by AlexisToschlog on 07/26/2019I recently purchased a vehicle from Tom Wood Ford. Initially the service was fine. I had looked at the website and had favorited a couple cars that they had on there lot, and was called by them a few minutes later to set up a time to come… in and take a look. Which I did feel was convenient. However after getting to the actual lot the following day things were a little different. I felt extremely rushed throughout the entire process. Comments were even made back and forth between employees about getting me out of there faster. Not for my benefit for theirs. After getting the vehicle home some important key factors that I made extremely clear I wanted in the vehicle were not included. I’m extremely dissatisfied with this business and how every employee I have spoken to has handled this situation. I highly recommend staying as far away from any Tom Wood dealership as you can!
We're thrilled to hear Seth and RJ made your buying experience seamless and stress-free, even with a hectic schedule! Thank you for choosing Tom Wood Ford and for recommending us. Safe travels!
