  • Finally, a great internet experience

    5 out of 5 starsby El_Maton on 11/23/2017
    updated 12/01/2017

    Best use of internet and text messaging anywhere. Worked late into night to make time sensitive deal happen. Did not waste my time with high pressure tactics.
  • Did not do anything to try and fix my vehicle

    1 out of 5 starsby wanemec on 11/16/2017

    I brought my Mazda B3000 truck in because it was making a large jerk/noise every time I would accelerate over 50 MPH on the freeway. It scared me because it would happen 100% of the time, and I did not want to break down on the freeway as my truck would loose power when it did this. Also my check engine light never came on, which I thought was weird since there was an obvious problem with the engine. I gave my truck over to Andrew at the repair shop, and they told me he would need it for a day to see what was going on. So a day goes by and they call and say that they can't find a problem, and asked if I wiped the internal computer to keep the check engine light from coming on. I said no the light never came on to start with, and I asked if they drove it and felt it. The person said they don't see a problem and they need it for another day. That made me think that no they did not drive it because if they did they would have felt it. So I said ok you can have it another day. Another day goes by and I get a call that they finally felt/heard the problem when they drove it on the freeway. They also said that since the check engine light wont come on that they don't want to deal with the problem so they are giving it back to me. That got me pretty upset and I asked questions like well what if the check engine light never comes on, what if thats part of the problem? I was basically told then to keep driving it hard till one of two options happens. A) Drive till the engine light comes on or B) drive till it fully breaks down. That got me pretty pissed as the whole reason I brought it in is because is because I didn't want it to break down. So I go back pick up my truck and the very next day I drop it off at Placentia Super Service and they quickly find the problem is the Cam Sensor and replace it. Now my truck works perfectly no thanks to Edmunds Ford. I will now never go back there with any of my needs.
    • That is not the kind of experience we seek to provide. Please call me when you can so we can address this together. Sincerely, Dave Robins, General Manager and Owner, 949.642.0010 x202, daverobins@robinsford.com

  • Scheduled Service 2014 Ford Escape

    5 out of 5 starsby FrankVisco on 10/11/2017

    I made a phone appointment with Ned, service advisor, for basic service and oil change. Ned wuoted me a price and indicate the whole prices would take an hour and a half. He was right on with both. I waited for the service in the lounge which had comfortable seating, Starbucks coffee and two big screen TVs. Very pleasant experience. Ned had previously helped me with warranty work which also turned very well. I feel that Ned is a real asset for Robbins Ford.

  • Awful Experience

    1 out of 5 starsby Carpdmr on 10/06/2017

    I bought a 2017 Fusion from this dealer, within a month I would come out in the mornings and car was completely dead. Took it to this dealer, missing time at work, they had it all day and then told me they couldn't find anything wrong. a month later same thing. The third time they had the car all day and didn't even look at it, said they needed a few days to get to it.

    Always a pleasure to visit Robin's Ford because the service is quick and excellent, the people are most accommodating and pleasant, their work is spot on. We travel quite a distance to go there, but it is worth it. We have had service, sales and fender repair work done here.

  • Purchase on Line

    5 out of 5 starsby Frankf15 on 05/14/2017

    Chris Alcocer was my contact. We put together the purchase of a used Jeep Cherokee on line. He was truthful and helpful in all matters. Deal was done without seeing the car in person. Trust was built to allow me to fly in from Reno and complete the purchase. He is an employee worth keeping and supporting.
    • Congratulations on your Jeep Cherokee, Frank! I'm so happy to hear that Chris did a great job in helping you with your purchase. It was a pleasure to assist you and please let us know when we can do so again! Sincerely, Dave Robins, General Manager and Owner
