The Worst
I have contacted this dealership many times online and visited the dealership twice regarding the truck I am interested in. With responses that we can get back to you. Then no follow up. I even emailed the sales manager regarding this, he responded once then that was it. He is just as bad as his employees. Not to mention the crazy markups they have on their vehicles compared to others around them. Well they lost my business and I will be buying my 2 cars somewhere else.

Hello, Please accept my apology regarding your recent experience with our Sales Team. My name is Josh Irvine, General Manager of Penske Ford, and I would like to reach out to you personally to discuss your visit. Would you please provide me with your preferred contact information at jirvine@socalpenske.com? If you prefer, you can call me directly at (619) 433-6001. Best Regards, Josh Irvine General Manager Penske Ford
Josh, Thank you for responding. You should have my contact info. If not ask Mir Sadat for it as it was the last person that I talked to.
Update: The response by the General Manager was just to mask the review that I left. It has been 2 days with no response or call. He is just as bad as the rest of his employees with follow up and customer service.
popped my tire
I brought my 2016 f-150 truck in because the brakes were squealing loudly like the pads were worn out, even though it had only 21,000 miles on it. My service tech was mike V. He was warm and welcoming. I waited for the brake check to be done. after an hour, which was reasonable, Mike came in and said the brakes were fine all around, He said the noise is due to the new composite brake pads and there was nothing to do about it, they just squeak. BUT he said, the tech popped a brand new tire on my truck when he took it off the rack. Accidents happen, and Mike said they were already getting the tire which they have in stock putting the new tire on at no charge and I would be done. Fair enough, but it took over 2 hours to put on a tire on, and even then I had to ask a person in the waiting room to check on it's status. for my trouble, I wasn't even given a car wash, a bit disappointing

Friendly, courteous & helpful
Salesman Mark Webb was very professional & helpful. He found a vehicle I was looking for. Did a test drive. I came back two days later & purchased said vehicle. Mark help set up the technology that was most important to me. Showed me other options that I could explore later as I became more familiar with the vehicle. He contacted me a few days later to see if I was enjoying my new purchase & offered his service on any questions I might have in the future. Mark made my purchase pleasant & non stressful. KL

Thje kind of help you want.
I have been taking my Ford C-max Energi to Penske since before it was Penske. I have found the service to be exceptional. I really like my service adviser, Amy Barclay. She makes me feel comfortable when dealing with the occasional problems that arise. I also believe Penske has fair pricing so I do not feel gouged when I take my vehicle to this dealershi[.

The staff at Penske ford were friendly and helpful. From finding a vehicle I’m interested in, test driving it, getting a final price, to signing the papers and driving off the lot, I had no complaints. Would do again.
