4X4 inop front wheel drive

I scheduled to bring my truck in for the front wheel drive of 4X4 not working. Which seems to be something that would have fairly standard and straight forward methods to verify…. I was given my truck back saying nothing was found but a belt tensioner making some noise. That evening I needed to use 4x4 to ascend a driveway and could not because my front wheels would not drive…. So I had to park and walk half a mile up the mountain with my girlfriend and her two young children THE DAY I got my truck back saying they can’t find anything wrong…

Not to mention the kids’ dad has his son talking shit about Fords to specifically irritate me and here we are walking up the mountain THE DAY I got it back from y’all with the confidence you had previously instilled in me in your quality of service shot down the drain.

I called in the very next day and my service advisor Christian was not in and the lady that answered my phone call said she’s have someone contact me to see when they can reschedule me…

Me getting my truck in is extremely hard as I fly for work and am typically not in the region and when I am I’m trying to spend the minimal time I have with my children, and whatever else I’ve managed to make important in my life…

Furthermore I asked to be called back by the service manager and the lady specifically mentioned that “his name” will call me back. Which I never did receive. You may also discover that I haven’t called back to reschedule as I am flying around the country currently and can’t forecast when my schedule will open enough to bring my vehicle BACK IN and manage the complication of utilizing a rental (if I’m fortunate) and the complication of needing to go to the airport while having a rental in my possession…

In the past you haven’t been perfect but Christian has been able to get a swift grasp of accountability and responsibility and ensure issues were rectified. I attempted to give you’re service department this opportunity once more and am still hanging high and dry with a girlfriend that gets nervous every time my rear tires slip to climb ANY kind of hill (speed bump) or exit any kind of slippery surface stop…

I’m still open for redemption so if we can get this front wheel drive working, that would be awesome!

When it comes to the things they tell you when it comes to buying a car is you get every thing and then when it comes to getting things replaced when they fall off on the high way they could care less!

Terrible DEALERSHIP I wouldn't send any of my friends to this place !!! I have a message on my phone from there service dept. that they would split the cost on a part because apparently a BUMPER TO BUMPER warranty on a car doesn't mean S !!!!. There smooth talking salesmen are there for you when you spend MONEY but when it comes to you saying that's what you told me they say I DIDN'T SAY THAT I WOULD NEVER SAY THAT!! Typical salesman they would probably rip there own mom and dad off. Getting ready to buy a new truck probably go to another Ford dealer. Been buying fords since 1979 my forth truck. MAYBE it's time to go to another brand if ford doesn't honor a BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY!!!

Yet ANOTHER Mis-Diagnosis

Took our car in for a recall repair. While fixing it, they broke a part that they didn't have. Brought it back later only to find the part wasn't really in. Took it back again and had to be given a loaner because they couldn't get it fixed. Weeks for a simple replacement part and never a single apology. Then took my truck in because it smokes. Diagnosed as bad glow plugs. Almost a thousand dollars later, still just as bad. Went to a real diesel mechanic and was told it was the injectors. Explained very clearly why and how to fix. Waste of money at Mike White. Took another truck to Mike White to check for an oil leak. Was told they had two or three master technicians look at it and confirmed it was a bed plate leak that could be fixed for more than $4,400. Took it to a diesel mechanic and after just five minutes determined it was the rear seal on the transmissions and definitely not the bed plate. Showed me why it was not a bed plate leak and that the engine would not need to be pulled like Mike White wanted to do. I really miss Lake City Ford. I like Ford products, but since there are no good service centers in either CDA or Sandpoint, it makes me want to go to another brand.

I’m not sure if any of the service writers have a whole lot of experience. They do not value customers time.

Terrible Experience

If I could I would give them zero stars!!!!
My husband bought me a new 2018 Expedition for Christmas and we had nothing but problems with it from the start. First time we took it in they blamed it on DVD Players. Then it broke down on me 2 more times while I had 2 babies in the car in the middle of a busy highway. Had to pay to have car towed to Mike White Ford. I was told on different occasions that someone would return my call and I ended up having to call them back every time. Went by on a weekend night to check on my car in their parking lot and they were closed and had my car totally unlocked with windows down. I couldn’t believe they had done that. Of course they were closed so I had no way to contact someone until the following day. I can’t even imagine what would have happened had it rained or if someone had stolen my stuff out of the car (expensive radar detector, DVD players, wireless car charger...). What dealership leaves an $80,000 car unlocked with windows down overnight while the customers stuff is in it???? They had my car for 3 weeks before they said what they thought was wrong with it. My kids and I both were too scared to even drive it again. I would never recommend this place. Now they have the car propped up to resell it. I feel bad for whoever buys it. I had to go and buy another car which put me in a lot of negative equity. I can’t even believe the experience I had. It seriously all seemed like a joke but it was actually happening. I filled this review out on my husbands behalf.

Corby, I apologize that this reply took so long. I wanted to fully understand what happened and that needed several parties to be consulted.

When your vehicle first began having issues, we took it to Aspen sound, due to the added accessories. They were unable to find an issue. However, after the issue duplicated itself, instead of taking it back to Aspen, we looked at our own shop where we diagnosed a starter issue due to the aftermarket accessories and the start/stop technology.

We apologize. We should have diagnosed the vehicle at our own shop first before taking the vehicle to Aspen.

The vehicle runs perfectly, now that it has been correctly diagnosed and fixed.

We would also like to apologize for the lack of communication. Your vehicle required the involvement of several departments and sometimes the right hand and the left hand need to communicate better. This is something that we are committed to improving.

Your comment about the windows is entirely valid and is something that will be reviewed with the appropriate parties. Thank you for bringing that to our attention.

Overall, it is plain to see that your experience didn't meet your expectations or ours. We thank you for your honest feedback and will strive to continuously improve.

Terrible communication

Was in to have my car checked and was supposed to be done and called by Monday at noon. I called to find out an update several times and finally had to go in. They then had my car done and it was ready to go. Would have been nice to know.

Antifreeze

Went in to get the coolant flushed and they did that but now the antifreeze is leaking all over the place. Seems typical of this outfit one step forward, two steps back.

Parker Ford is the worst. They sell the car, then the customer be damned. I'd rather get a root canal at the dentist than bring my Ford to Parker Ford for service!

Can’t get my issue resolved with my new truck!

My truck have been in more than once for drive train issues that can’t be found. I was told I need to drive it until the problem gets worse??? Never thought I would have to deal with problems like this with a truck of this caliber and cost!!! Very disappointed.

Things not fixed properly

Things not fixed properly. Besides dealing with a windshield wiper replacement that I didn’t need or want, it was replaced after they broke part of it in a way that now is not set straight. Also, they did some other work and must’ve disconnected my battery and now my clock is broken. Have not had much luck with service from this place since it went away from Tom Addis

Failed to correct "Check Engine Light"

This is the first disappointing experience I had with the repair of my 2010 Ford Ranger which I bought from Parker Ford.
They replaced a part that they said that caused the checked Engine light. Within minutes the check engine light comes back on and I take it back. When I last picked it up, the check engine light came on when I turned it on. Extremely disappointed service and excessive cost to not fix it.

The tech wasn't able to find the code for the speed sensor.

The tech wasn't able to find the code for the speed sensor. I picked it up,drove it home and didn't drive it until 6:40 am the next day. The truck threw the code again only 3 miles into my drive. And then the next day did it again. I called and left a msg for Christian to call me back and I haven't heard back yet.

Warranty Work

Poor multi-point vehicle inspection. Technician stated rear brakes needed replaced immediately. I brought the truck home and lifted the truck and removed tires to inspect brakes. My rear brakes are in medium (yellow) condition per spec sheet on brake thickness and the fronts were worn more then the rear which conflicts with the inspection documented stating (green) for my front brakes. Upon further inspection truck tires were not remove to perform the proper inspection. Report states the truck was not lifted and the wheels were corroded to the hub showing that they have not been removed recently. Unhappy that I was misinformed. Customer service on scheduling and updating was good.

My marker lights were replaced after expressing my concerns. So my concerns were heard and hopefully are as I go forward with my Ford truck. Communication is a key for me.

Still don't pay attention to the details.

I had the car serviced and the PCM reprogrammed and right after I got home and then restarted the car the change oil soon light is on, So it was never reset, Would not be an issue if I was just down the street but I am not.
Why is it so hard to do a proper and complete job when servicing a vehicle?
