on going saga of our car.now into the 5th week waiting on a new turbo ,first excuse after 4 weeks of no correspondance was they were waiting to hear from the warranty people to make sure the car was under warranty even though all cars are warranted for 12 months and ours was only purchased 5 weeks ago ,they then promised they would call me with an update before the end of the day ,they didnt so i sent another email ,unusually they actually replied but only with another excuse ,this excuse was that the technician had a emergency and had to go home so nothing has yet been repaired but we will keep you informed ,they have not .still waiting for the car to be repaired and obviously the next excuse ,terrible customer care ,do not buy from these people ,you will regret it

Terrible customer service
Terrible customer service, the individuals I spoke to in person done a great job but when I would call up to try and gather more information on the car I was waiting to pick up they didn’t want to talk.
When I picked the car up it was dirty inside.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback. While we're pleased to hear that the colleagues you dealt with in person provided a good level of service, we're sorry that the communication you received over the phone didn't match that experience.
We understand how important it is to receive clear updates when you're waiting to collect a vehicle, and you should feel that our team are willing and able to help when you contact us. We're also disappointed to hear that the interior of your car wasn't presented to the standard you expected at collection.
We'll share your feedback with the relevant teams so that both our communication and vehicle preparation can be reviewed and improved.

I would strongly advise others to think carefully before purchasing a vehicle from Fords of Winsford based on my experience.
I paid £14,000 for a 2019 Ford Kuga, and within two weeks of ownership the vehicle developed multiple faults, including an ABS warning light, intermittent power steering issues, hill start assist failures, and the speedometer intermittently stopping working.
Fords of Winsford initially booked the vehicle into a garage, but the earliest appointment was four days away and no courtesy car was offered. Before that appointment could take place, the exhaust completely broke in two, leaving the car undriveable and requiring assistance from the RAC. Despite receiving the RAC report, Fords of Winsford insisted on collecting and inspecting the vehicle themselves before considering a refund.
When we asked about a courtesy car, we were told one would only be provided if we went ahead with repairs. As we had lost confidence in the vehicle and requested a refund instead, no courtesy car was offered. It then took two days for the vehicle to be collected and a further day to be inspected.
During this time I submitted a formal complaint and repeatedly requested a call from a manager. Despite multiple requests, no manager ever contacted me.
In an effort to find a resolution, we even explored the possibility of exchanging the car for another vehicle. We asked whether Fords of Winsford would provide a courtesy car in the meantime, extend the warranty, and deliver the replacement vehicle free of charge. All requests were declined, so we proceeded with the refund.
Communication throughout the process was poor. We were told the refund would be processed by close of business Friday, or by Monday at the latest. When Monday arrived, we had to chase for an update and were then told it would be Tuesday instead. Again, no manager contacted us.
To make matters worse, we had paid a £500 deposit pending receipt of the V5 for our part exchange. We sent the V5 by recorded delivery, and despite Fords of Winsford confirming they had received it, no refund was issued. After 10 days we chased and were told it still needed processing and would take another 3-5 working days. After a further delay, we had to contact them again before the refund was finally dealt with.
The faults with the vehicle were disappointing, but what has been most frustrating is the lack of communication, delays in processing refunds, and complete absence of management involvement despite repeated requests. As a customer spending £14,000 on a vehicle, I expected far better service and support when things went wrong.
Unfortunately, based on this experience, I would not recommend Fords of Winsford

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a detailed account of your experience. We're very sorry that your purchase resulted in a number of issues so soon after collection and that the subsequent handling of your case left you feeling unsupported.
We appreciate that experiencing several faults within such a short period would understandably affect your confidence in the vehicle. While there are processes we need to follow when a customer requests a refund, including having the vehicle returned to us and inspected, we recognise that clear and timely communication throughout that process is extremely important.
We're particularly disappointed to hear about the difficulties you experienced obtaining updates, the changes to the timescales you were given and the delays surrounding both the vehicle refund and the return of the £500 held pending receipt of the V5. We also acknowledge your comments regarding your repeated requests for management contact. Regardless of the eventual outcome of a case, customers should understand what is happening, what the next steps are and when they can expect an update.
Although we're pleased that the vehicle was ultimately returned and the refund processed, we appreciate that this does not change the frustration caused by your overall experience.
Thank you for raising your concerns in such detail. Your feedback will be reviewed with the relevant teams, particularly around communication, escalation and the management of refund timescales.
Many Thanks,

Danny and Chris
Danny Keam was great and really helped us from start to finish. He knew all about the car, procedures and process and didn't hesitate to answer any questions we had. Danny was really friendly and helped us with all our queries. He went back through any questions we needed re-answering (as there was A LOT of information being given on the day).
Special shout out to the general manager Chris who went out of his way to assist us and was so lovely and friendly. His team are accredit to him and his kind nature and he should be proud.
Love the new car and would definitely go back when looking for a new car in the future.

We knew what we wanted and once we had…
We knew what we wanted and once we had found the car and had a test drive with Alex the rest was very straight forward. Alex was great, very professional and efficient. We arranged a date and picked the car up, simple. The only wrinkle was the valeting, we had to ask them to do it again and it still wasn't brilliant. It might not be a new car, but it was new to us and I was disappointed. However, we love our new to us car and would definately recommend FOW. There is so much choice and everyone is friendly and happy to help.

Not bad but could have been better
We are so far very pleased with the car and the sales process overall was acceptable but there was thing that was unsatisfactory and one that could be improved.
We arranged to collect the car one week after first viewing it and were rather disappointed to find that scratches on the bodywork had not been dealt with although we thought that had been agreed on the first viewing. Although were offered for these to be dealt with if we brought the car back, it would have meant bringing a second car and two more trips with each requiring a round trip of 3 hours. In the end we decided to take the car as it was - disappointing.
The other thing which could be improved is the sales process which takes too long, involves far too many forms and passwords. It looks as though it has been prepared by a London barrister with the aim of protecting FOW from absolutely any possible claim at all.
We have bought a number of cars from FOW over the years and this was not the best experience.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us such detailed feedback and, importantly, for choosing FOW again after purchasing a number of vehicles from us over the years.
We're pleased to hear that you're happy with your new car and that the overall sales experience was acceptable. We are, however, sorry that the scratches discussed during your initial visit hadn't been addressed before collection. We completely understand why returning the vehicle wasn't a practical solution when this would have involved several additional hours of travelling, and appreciate why this left you disappointed.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the amount of paperwork and the time involved in completing the purchase. While some documentation is necessary to ensure everything is properly recorded and explained, the process should still feel as straightforward as possible for our customers.
Thank you for your continued custom and for highlighting where this experience could have been better. We'll take your comments on board with the relevant teams.

Extremely disappointed start to finish!
Was extremely disappointed from start to finish!
Went in to this experience expecting good things as a colleague recommended FOW however, all I can say now is "Never Again"
Other than the truly lovely lady at the reception desk at the Winsford branch and Luke the salesperson (who we waited almost 2 hours to speak to and spent about 20 mins with), almost every interaction with a member of staff was rude, unprofessional and insensitive to our situation.
For somewhere that advertises and prides itself in 'award winning exceptional customer service' and 'high quality cars' we got none of this. Why put out cars for sale when they haven't been sufficiently checked over and need another 2-3 days before safe to be driven off the forecourt...whilst at the same time pressurising us to try and drive away the same day! While in the same breath admitting their priority is just to put as many cars out as humanly possible without sufficiently looking them over first. And heaven forbid you have a slight delay in banks transferring funds...FOW will hound you and berate you until they see that money in their account. Unacceptable behaviour and disgusting treatment from Neil the 'Collections Manager' who actively admitted he wasn't listening and just said yes to a plan only to do a 180 and pull the rug out from under us. Ended up losing complete trust and faith in FOW - get treated like you're absolutely worthless and take no consideration to a customer's disabilities. Ended up missing my own Grandfather's funeral because of FOW's constant mess up and received no apology or offer of compensation whatsoever. Really disappointed, went in hoping for a relatively smooth seamless process (for as much as purchasing a car can be!) and came out utterly stressed and mentally drained.

Turned up at FOW without an appointment…
Turned up at FOW without an appointment on the Tuesday. Salesperson (Harry) arrived almost immediately and went through the procedure. I had a car in mind and was asked if I would like to test drive it which i did. Whilst out on the test drive all the information relevant to the car was given to me. Returned to the office, went through the buying procedure and ordered the car. Arranged a date for collection(Thursday)
Harry explained he would not be at work on Thursday and that someone else would look after me.
I recieved a phone call on the Wednesday confirming the time for collection.
Arrived on Thursday at 5pm all forms completed and on the road with my new car before 5.30.
Excellent service and so far no problems at all with the car.
