Outstanding Dealership

5 out of 5 starsby Miully2 on 03/11/2025
updated 03/19/2025

Stopped in today to sell my vehicle, with no further purchase. Sales representative Edward Mowery was fantastic. Professional, polite, courteous and knowledgeable. Dealership was clean and friendly. Greeter at the front desk was outstanding. If you looking for a new or used vehicle, I highly recommend this dealership. Drive no further!

  • Ist service on my Edge

    5 out of 5 starsby Kathypat on 01/01/2025

    Recall work & 1st service on my Edge went VERY smoothly. I really appreciated the ride back home after I dropped off AND the vehicle being delivered back to me after it was serviced was a tremendous help!

  • Great experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Donna Huff on 08/04/2024
    updated 08/14/2024

    We had an issue with a previous dealer, we informed Josh our salesman, he got his supervisor involved, he was up front with us and gave us our options, which meant to sell our car somewhere else, which was what would be better for us. We did as suggested, and came back and purchased a 22 Mustang Gt. They went over everything with us, the car the financing, and did not PUSH anything on us. Even the gentleman in financing was awesome. Explaining everything. They were all wonderful to work with. I would definitely recommend purchasing from them.
    • Hello Donna, we're happy you found our staff to be so supportive during your experience here at AutoNation Ford St. Petersburg. Thanks for the recommendation, and have an amazing day!

  • 2021 Tacoma

    4 out of 5 starsby Bennetmow on 07/20/2024

    Decent dealership. I was taken care of by salesman Ahmed. He was great and worked with me throughout the entire process and was not pushy at all. On the other hand the finance guy was not a good experience. I work in sales myself and I have to say I was surprised how pushy and almost rude he was. He told me that I was “ignorant and didnt know what was best for me.” There was a coffee cup that was spilled on his desk when I arrived and was still there 3 days later. It’s the little things like this that make you seem unprofessional. Honestly almost didn’t go through with the purchase just because of the way he was. But I’ll say it again Ahmad was great and would recommend him to anyone.
    • We appreciate you taking the time to leave us a response! If you ever need anything else from us, please feel free to give us a call or stop by. Have an awesome day!

  • Left tagless

    1 out of 5 starsby Mark N on 04/29/2024

    Bought a used vehicle on 3/30 & was charged $199 electronic filing fee which was to cover electronic filing for registration, title and tag so that they could give me a new tag that day (no old tag/no trade). Paid in full, finished paperwork and then told system was down so here's a temp tag, we'll fedex the new tag when done. 4 weeks later no tag still, temp tag expired & AN doesn't respond to emails, texts & phone calls. Left detailed VM for Bruce Heath, GM who was in but unavailable when I called but still no response.

  • Upgrades for my 23 Bronco Outer Banks

    5 out of 5 starsby Shevawn on 03/28/2024

    Trevor in service has been so awsome helping me with getting my upgrades ordered ( tires/wheels, exhaust, tow package, fender flares) to just name a few. Then there is Nate the mechanic, who has had to put up with me wanting to see everyting as it has been done. And then Micky my service advisor who keeps me updated to what is getting done each time i have a new item to be put on. Thank you to everyone for helping make our 23 Outer Banks very special for us. And i can't forget Scott Briggs for being part of the buying process that took 2 1/2 years. Chuck and Shevawn

  • Good dealership

    5 out of 5 starsby billocnl on 03/01/2024

    My wife and I stopped in to look at a used vehicle with Justin G. as my salesperson. I generally do not enjoy the car purchasing process. Justin did a great job showing us the vehicle and making the process a pleasant experience. We decided we liked the car and wanted to purchase it with a trade-in. We negotiated with the trade-in and eventually agreed on a fair price. This was not a high-pressure, contentious negotiation in any way, which I appreciated. The same was true after we agreed on the price and opted to not get any warranty, etc. The whole process was done well as the dealership displayed an element of class that you don't always see. The whole process was very positive due to the people involved and how the dealership conducts business. I will go there again for future purchases.
    • Hi, we're happy you found our staff to be so supportive during your experience here at AutoNation Ford St. Petersburg. As one of our valued customers, we want to sincerely thank you for your business and we hope to see you here again down the road!

  • Best Car Buying Experience to Date

    5 out of 5 starsby nickorbett on 02/23/2024

    Went to Auto Nation to purchase a pre-owned vehicle for my daughter. Wanted something as close to new as possible. They had just the vehicle I was looking for. They didn't push me towards something I didn't want, but focused squarely on what I was looking for. The transaction could not have been better. Even with some credit challenges, I was done and out in a couple of hours. Everyone from the Salesperson, (Ahmed) to the Finance Director, made this the most stress-free car buying experience I've had in 35 years.

  • Hooked me up

    5 out of 5 starsby rockman on 02/11/2024

    Was interested in truck onlne. I inquired and was contacted by Art, who answered all my questions quickly. However, before I could get down to the dealership the truck sold! About a week later Art reached out to to notify me that the sale fell through and if I was still interested. I was, went down to the dealership and took a look and bought the truck. I thought it impressive that Art kept me in mind and reached out when the sale fell through with the initial buyer.
    • Hi, thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day!

  • Compre una Ford Expedition

    3 out of 5 starsby Nicole C on 02/09/2024

    La atencion por parte del vendedor y del manager fue sobresaliente, el cumplimiento de la negociacion , no . Compramos las garantias que nos ofrecieron, pusimos el down payment que nos pidieron y solo pedimos a cambio un mantenimiento free por dos años. Entre tanto papel para firmar y numeros no revisamos todo. Nos lo terminaron cobrando, Sinceramente, que pueden ser 270 dolares en una compra de 43000?.
    • Hola Nicole, ¡realmente apreciamos tus comentarios! Comuníquese con nosotros al (727) 231-1323 cuando pueda para que podamos abordar esta situación directamente. Gracias y que tengas un buen día.

    5 out of 5 starsby Herkdriver on 02/05/2024

  • Great service

    5 out of 5 starsby Little1 on 01/31/2024

    Went in for oil change and recall was able to get the oil change done but will have to schedule the recall for a later day. The advisor was very nice and told I would be put on a list for a loaner car since I would have to leave my car overnight for the recall. I was not offered this service and I have been trying to get this done since it happened. Thanks Mickie

  • WINDSHIELD REPLACMENT AND SERVICE

    1 out of 5 starsby LOVE MY FORD on 12/21/2023

    I scheduled service for a windshield replacement and a couple small items . Was told it would take a few weeks for windshield to come in. so scheduled accordingly . Dropped car, told might be done same day. Could not get updates asked for daily. 3 days later service manager called said they don't normally do windshields and they did not order one. He was not aware of some of the other items that were supposed to be checked out. 6 days later picked up car.Is there a rating I can give less than one star? Previous/y bought cars from sales department. They were a 1 star as well . I now drive to a Ford dealer an hour further which is faster over all on purchase day than using them 15 minutes from my house.
