AutoNation Ford Bradenton

Overall, great experience purchasing a 2023 Mustang Mach E. They were willing to work with us to get the best deal and did not put any pressure on us to make a decision. They have also been in touch after the purchase to make sure we are still satisfied. Definitely recommend.

Long distance purchased , communication was a bit " Rough ", & with Threats from the Sales Manager !! But once I traveled 2170 miles , The Tundra was all Worth it , and the different Salesman were easy to work with .

Inconsistent communication. Front end information not met. On site, had to tell them my car was ready. (Parked out front) even after not having transportation home as promised and being on site 3 hours.

Great place. For service and sales. Dave sharpe was great as was Mike and Andrew. Managers

Actually had great service-surprised!! Shawn was excellent- great communication (rare these days) fixed the noisy cold start problem on ecoboost in two days!!! Recommed their service without reservation!

THIS DEALERSHIP HAS GONE RIGHT DOWN THE TUBES....JUST AWFUL SERVICE DOES NOT ANSWER THE PHONE, SERVICE MANAGER DOES NOT ANSWER THE PHONE. RECEIVED NUMEROUS E-MAILS FROM FORD FOR SERIOUS RECALLS....CNAT SCHEDULE THE SERVICE, CANT GET ANSWERS! NO PARTS???? BOUGHT THREE CARS HERE NEVER AGAIN!

The sales person was great. He was always in touch with me. He would tell me what he had. He helped me find the exact vehicle that I was looking for. The dealership worked with on the price and payments I wanted. Very helpful and friendly

I would give Scott Saidel of AutoNation Ford in Bradenton seven stars out of five if possible. I am extremely pleased by the experience buying my 2024 Ford Escape PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid) from Scott. I live in Clearwater and was interested in buying an electric vehicle with the intention of powering the electric car from the solar panels on the roof of my house. I looked at Tesla, Volkswagen, Volvo, Kia, Hyundai, Chevy and the Ford dealerships close to my house near Clearwater. I did a lot of investigation on-line in various websites, so when I started asking questions at the various dealerships, I generally found the sales people ill-informed about the features and capabilities of their electric cars. Scott was the exception. Scott’s knowledge of the vehicles he is selling far surpasses the knowledge of any other sales person I encountered. Scott is a true electric vehicle enthusiast and expert. This knowledge so impressed me that when Scott moved from the AutoNation location in xx. Petersburg to the AutoNation location in Bradenton, I followed him down even though I had no commitment to buy a Ford at that time. One the most impressive and decisive factors in my buying from Scott at AutoNation Bradenton was that I had a perception of honesty and superior knowledge from Scott. When other sales people could not answer my questions, I was left wondering whether they did not know the answer because they had never considered the issue, or they were pretending ignorance and deceiving me because they felt the true honest answer would deter me from buying the car. With Scott, I felt I was getting true, complete answers and being dealt with honestly. Although I really liked the Mustang Mach-E, I ultimately ordered and bought the Ford Escape PHEV due to price. I figure that for 355 days of the year, I will drive my Escape in electric-only mode using electricity from the solar panels on my roof and my charger at home. There are only a few days each year I take long trips when I will need more range than the 37 miles that the Escape PHEV has in electric-only mode.

Damir made the car process smooth and easy! I recommend him and Auto Nation to everyone!

I wish I would have walked away from this deal when I could. My instincts were yelling at me to walk and I didn?t listen. With every step in the process, I found them to be inflexible and working hard to get every single dollar out of my wallet. When I brought up an email from Auto Nation that Ford was offering 0% financing, the sales mgr. Peter said that it was quote; ?an advertising ploy?. Wow. I kept that text and considering sending to the Attorney Generals office as bait and switch is illegal. Live and learn I suppose. No ones fault but my own.
