Mac Haik Ford - They don't care about their customers!
Written by jbaaron on 07/15/2008

This is a conversation I had with one of the salemen at Mac Haik Ford concerning the purchase of a 2008 Ford Focus. I had bought a Ford vehicle here previously and this is how I was treated as a returning customer. You will have to read the email starting from the bottom up and I left 4 spaces between emails to make it easier to read. I can beleive the audacity of this so called sales person. You sir, have crossed the line. I will be contacting Ford Motor Company Customer Relationship Center at [violative content deleted] first thing in the morning to file a complaint. After you response, I don't want to purchase a Ford vehicle after owning 6 Ford vehicles. I will be posting this complete email on Edmunds.com, ConsumerReports.com, AAA.com, BBB.com, and every Ford automotive forum in which I'm a member. In addition, I will be sending this email to the following people. William Clay Ford, Jr. Executive Chairman Alan Mulally President and Chief Executive Officer Michael E. Bannister Executive Vice President (Chairman & CEO Ford Motor Credit Company) Lewis W. K. Booth Executive Vice President Ford of Europe and Volvo (Chairman, Volvo and Ford of Europe ) Mark Fields Executive Vice President and President The Americas ***The email lists all the top people but I had to remove some due to limited characters*** Jerry ----- Original Message ---- From: Thomas Simmons [violative content deleted] To: [violative content deleted] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 6:07:28 PM Subject: RE: Your vehicle info from Mac Haik Ford I spent a lot of time explaining to you that I would not tolerate anything that might lead to anything that is not customer oriented satisfaction. You obviously have a problem. I will not sell you anything ,ever. You are Fired as a customer Thomas Simmons From: [violative content deleted] Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 5:36 PM To: Thomas Simmons Cc: [violative content deleted] Subject: Re: Your vehicle info from Mac Haik Ford Thomas, This is not made very clear in your ad. I just looked at some other dealer's ads and it seems they're doing the same thing but it is made clear in their ad. In addition, I do not see the 2008 Ford Focus for 9,999 you are talking about with a 24 month lease. I never mention this anywhere in my email. As for you the rest of your response, I didn't ask for the amount of time you have worked there and didn't accuse you of playing games. I surely hope you're not implying that I was playing games. I merely asked you about the ad before continuing the process. To be honest, your email didn't come across with a satisfactory tone, so I will not be looking to buy another car with Mac Haik Ford. In addition, I will be forwarding the following email to the Ford Customer Relations department. Please do not contact me any further and remove my email address from any mailing list that Mac Haik Ford maintains.

The $3,500 applies only to the Diesels. Under the $9,999 on the Focus explains it is a 24 month Lease. That number is the total of the 24 months of payments. I have been here as of today 8 years and 10 months. I am not going to play games.

I know the Ford Focus comes in an S, SE, and SES with additional options. I've looked at t

I totally agree with this review. I just visited them this past week and Thomas Simmons was my salesman as well. He pretended to be so nice and sincere until I refused to put down more money than what he wanted for a very small vehicle that was worth only 15k. It went from $500 to $2000 and my score is 660. He went on to tell me about his 3 wives and 6 kids and how black people were more racist than whites during his army career. I didn't know why he was telling me that he grew up with a black servant in NJ and how much he loved her. I assumed that he was trying to be my buddy since I am black. His attitude totally changed when my fiance got there and he is white. Weird enough after my fiance left, he went back to the finance office and asked for more money. I told him let me think about it. I returned the next day to say that he didn't have a deal and all of a sudden, I could get into any vehicle that I wanted with a large doown. At first he went on to say that my score was low and how the banks wanted more money etc etc. I told him that I could get approved with 0 down with that score. He had the nerves to tell me that no other dealer could get me approved and he hope that I don't walk away this deal because some other woman tried and she ended up not getting a vehicle at all. He called me later on that day with a single cab ford ranger for 18k. He knows that I have a toddler son and he and his finance manager Mike told me that I could not get another vehicle and Thomas had the nerves to say that I could turn the airbags off! I got up to leave and he said let me see if I can get an extended cab, and he came back saying that he could. I asked him about an escape which was $2100 more and he told me with $6k I could get into that vehicle. I walked out. He called me this morning and left a voicemail saying that I can get into that vehicle with $3500. I went to a very nice toyota dealer and they approved me on the spot for a vehicle that is $27k and no down pymnt. Let me tell you, I have never experienced such attitudes as these people at Mack Haik. I love the new place and I am picking up my car today. If it slithers like a snake, hiss like a snake, then it is a SNAKE. thomas simmons is a snake.
