Salesman are great.

Salesman are great. But service lacks. When you buy a used vehicle you expect all the fluids to have been checked. At my first service at an outside service center transmission fluid was checked and was not even on the stick the following day or two I had my appointment at caskinettes for a recall and they refused to check it for me without having me pay for service to have them check it and add transmission fluid even though it was purchased from them a few months earlier and still under bumper to bumper warranty. . Service department stated they DO NOT ! Check all fluids when a used vehicle is sold. I am a 40 year mechanic and NYS motor vehicle inspector groups 1 and 2 and evidently service is not job 1 in there facility.

We leased a new vehicle.

We leased a new vehicle. We were told it had power seats but you have to pump up by a handle to get it to go up or down. That is not a power seat. Also we were told if you use your phone for GPS it doesn't use data from your phone. Yes it does. Just before leaving we were told the vehicle had been used as a rental. It had almost 1000 miles on it. We would not be charged for those miles.

I could not get the sales rep (Dani) to respond to my inquiry. The truck I was interested in was likely sold by someone else. Too bad the rep is so short sighted and transactionally fixated- I will continue to shop elsewhere.

I just got back from the dealership for the second time

I just got back from the dealership for the second time in @ weeks. I live over an hour away from Caskinette Ford. The first time I had an appointment to see an advertised used Tundra. When I got there they said they made a mistake and the truck was over an hour away at another site. I didn't wait and said I was disappointed that they didn't have the truck on site as promised. They apologize and I gave them another try. Today they said an employee had driven the truck to another part of their dealership and it was unavailable to see. I was mad, raised my voice and called them unprofessional, disrespectful of their customers. They told me to lower my voice and escorted me out the door. 5 hours and money for gas wasted. Do yourself a favor and avoid this dealership

Lightning order canceled

I reserved a F150 Lightning in August of 2021 and placed an order for one on 02/10/22. I paid $500 for a deposit at that time. I kept checking my order status online and found out that on 03/15/22 the order was canceled. I contacted my salesperson and was told it he didn’t know why and the northeast corporate representative was working on it. After several days with no answer I contacted ford customer service. They confirmed that the order was canceled at the dealer and there was nothing further they could do for me. 11151440 was my order number from ford. I made several attempts to speak with the sales manager and general manager with no help and felt I was getting the run around. I had been a customer of Caskinette’s for 30 years and purchased several vehicles from them. For a long time customer to be treated in this fashion is deplorable. I was finally fed up with the run around, asked for my deposit back and purchased a new Ram from another dealer. I will never deal with this dealership again and would discourage anyone from dealing with them as well.

Must Read-once they received payment, downhill

BEWARE WHEN PURCHASING FROM THIS DEALERSHIP! READ THIS FIRST! - Paid for a 2021 F-150 Power boost at the end of November 2022 - For 3 months, the dealership have me the runaround on shipping the vehicle to MN, lied and said it had shipped when in reality it hadn't, and it wasn't until I reported it to the police that they decided to ship it the next day - Received the vehicle and it had a major electrical problem, the battery was bad, wipers were bad, wheels were out of alignment and it was low on fluids - Brought the truck to a Ford dealership and it took 3 months for them to get it back in running condition - When you make a $60k investment into a truck and you're told it's gone through inspection and is in excellent condition, that is what you expect to receive and that's not what we got by any means - It took 6 months to finally get a running truck, all the while making payments on my previous truck since I couldn't sell it until I had the new one - Not only could we not get any response from our sales rep, the dealership would not respond either to and phone calls or messages - When I looked at doing a buy-back, I was informed that I wasn't the only customer that got a lemon vehicle and that this dealership did not handle these situations professionally at all We chose this dealership after reviewing many others and a big reason was because of the high rating. What we got from this experience doesn't even deserve one star, so when you're reading reviews, take it with a grain of salt and beware when trying to deal with them.

The way car buying should be

Found a listing an F350 on cars.com. It was equipped exactly like we wanted. I called the dealership and was put in touch with Travis who was my sales representative. I live 1,300 miles away from the dealership. I have purchased several vehicles from long distance over the years. Travis made the process very easy. I booked airline tickets to Syracuse, NY and he delivered the pick up to me at the airport. In less than 30 minutes I was starting my drive back home. Overall a great experience. I round recommend them to anyone.
