Used Ford C-Max Hybrid for Sale in Tampa, FL

Purchased my car in 4/2017 was taken care of by Raul Rosado (salesman) and previous manager. A part from the inside of the car was broken and needed replacement. Per those two employees, they were suppose to follow up with me and never did after 3 months of emailing Mr. Rosado and calling without no response I went personally to the dealer and met Edwin Torres who went above and beyond to help me and make sure a had a loaner car and fixed all the issues with the car. The new manager was also accommodating. Staff like that makes a difference. The reason why I bought my car at your dealer was because my son in law bought GT mustang last year and had great customer service. The two sales people that helped me back in April had no customer service and I felt because I am 68 years old that they could avoid my emails and calls, I'm happy they are not a part of your organization.

This car meet all of it needs! It has plenty of legroom front and back! Has alot of room in the trunk! It has Bluetooth and phone accessories! It has cruise control! You can change the radio stations and volume on the steering wheel also! You will like this vehicle if you have a big family! It will hold 5 people!

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

The only problem we have had in 4 years is the oxygen sensors. Ford apparently has not made a good oxygen sensor. We have replaced both and still had problems. Ford wanted to hold a committee meeting to decide whether it was another sensor which had been replaced a month earlier, might be a catalytic converter. I bought one and had it installed by an auto repair shop. Everything a the dealer ship was $350 and up. Still have the same check engine code coming up but now I disregard it so the mpg is up and down.

This past Sunday the 22nd I visited Elder Ford looking for a good deal for my dream car. I was very lucky to be served by Eddie Burke who is one of the sales associate. Eddie was very honest, understanding, and worked with me for several hours in order to help me get the best deal. Even though I couldn't get what I was looking for, I left this awesome dealer very happy and with a lot of knowledge on how to work towards getting a better deal. Eddie helped me understand every aspect of what I wanted and tried to help me the most. His customer service skills are highly recommended for anyone who wants to feel good while making the big step of buying a new car. Eddie is a great asset for this Dealership and I think because of him and other associates like him, this is a great place to buy a car. Elder Ford of Tampa also has a great selection of new cars with the latest technology. Thank you Elder Ford of Tampa, thank you Eddie Burke, and when I'm ready I would definitely go back to you guys to buy my dream car. Furthermore I will definitely recommend this dealership and Mr. Burke to all my friends and family.

I’m old, have owned many cars in my 80 years and value my C-Max more than my house. No, I’m not ready to live in my car just yet.

So our intentions were to be "only looking" at the Subaru Crosstrek. We were greeted by one of the managers and he directed us to Yvonne Peterson. She was patient with answering our questions and showed us the features of the various trims and allowed my wife to drive a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. Yvonne is the type of person one feels comfortable with within a short time. She is experienced. At no time did we feel pressured by her or anyone at the dealership. She spent a lot of time with us (~4 hours) and we ended up purchasing the car. Although no haggling, they had a good price on the car and it was below sticker price. I felt we had a better experience here than another Subaru dealership in Tampa where we purchased my son's 2017 Subaru Impreza. Also dealt with Andre Selec the financial manager, who again did not pressure us when it came to getting warrantee information. Overall a great no pressure experience and yes I would return to buy a car from them again.

Excellent fuel economy Roomy interior with easy in and out Agile handling and strong acceleration for a hybrid Attractive, well-built interior Smoothly transitions between gas and electric power Excellent outward visibility

We purchased our new 2017 Explorer Limited on 12/30/2017 during Brandon Ford's Year-End Sales Event. We had never seen a dealership so busy! After test driving 3 Explorers (2 pre-owned & 1 new), we made a decision to purchase new. Charles was very patient with our long, decision-making process and was able to answer all our questions. The finance stage of our purchase was just as enjoyable and Matt explained all of our options in great detail. Since our purchase day, we have been enjoying our new 2017 Explorer Limited and looking forward to many future trips. Thank you, Brandon Ford! We will be back!!!! Patti & Mike

I love it! I enjoy driving this car. It is so nice the way it handles. I have RA and it is a very comfortable car for me. It has a awesome ride for a smaller car. Very good on gas too. I only stop at the pump 2 times a month now. The other cars I've owned it was twice a week.

From the moment I got in touch with the dealer to the moment i finished to buy the car they were great, JD was very accommodate and ease to deal with

Just bought this car. Made 2 hour drive home with it and was surprised with the mpg already, glad I switched. It also has plenty of room.

Good experience with both my visit and follow up by staff. Met with Kasey, Felix (Sales Rep) and Robert (part owner) and test drove vehicle. They were very friendly and low key. Vehicle was beautiful and very fairly priced. Ultimately went with same model, but 1 year newer and lower miles from another dealer. They have a lot of very beautiful and rare vehicles at Discovery.

This car met all of my needs. Back seats are comfy too. Leg room, not closed in. Heated seats. I can make a phone call through the car, of course not while driving. 2

This car is awesome! The inside is everything I wanted looking for a used car at a reasonable price range. It's an awesome gas saver & super stylish

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

Purchased C Max with 12k. Absolutely love the vehicle. We average 43 to 44 mpg. Great car to drive. Highly recommend wheather you live in the city or country.

I was on an errand in Clearwater when a service light appeared on my dashboard, one I'd never seen before. I looked it up in the service manual, and it was a serious one. I'm new to this area, hadn't had my Prius serviced locally yet, so I was at the mercy of whichever dealership could take me first. I called two, but when connected to the service departments, I only got voice mail. My third call was to Auto Nation Toyota; I explained my situation and was put through to John Curtis. He listened to me (and the near-panic in my voice), and calmly told me that the car would be OK to be driven as far as their location, and assured me that they'd take immediate and good care of me. Which is exactly what transpired. John is a professional, easy going, and "knows his stuff." He gave me the information I needed to know, in a manner that a person who is not automotive knowledgeable could comprehend. I sincerely recommend John as a "go to guy" for your car's needs. Not only that, but for the first time in my driving life (and I'm no spring chicken), not only does this dealership offer you a ride home, but a ride back to pick up your car as well! That, to me, was amazing! Both drivers were personable and the cars immaculately clean, without any nasty, perfumey coverup smells (which I'm allergic to). My '08 Prius and I are very happy with the experience and service rendered.

I read most all the bad reviews on the C-Max. No automobile is perfect, but maintenance, mileage, and understanding the size of car you need is a priority. Most bad reviews delt with one of those issues. I tell my friends why I bought 3 of these cars (only have 2 now) that if you require a lot of space, this aint your car. You keep the maint. current it will run forever. I echo all the great reviews, as have had 3 total all with NO PROBLEMS. The only complaint I have about the C-Max is it's low to the ground, but I test drove one first and the seating was comfortable for us. Simply compare it to the Prius. If you were interested in a Prius, you should instead buy the C-Max.

This is my second vehicle purchased from Vroom in the last 12 months, and I can't imagine ever buying a used car from a brick-and-mortar dealership again. Vroom offers a terrific selection of late model used vehicles. The pictures really make it easy to know what the car looks like. I purchased a 2015 BMW 5-series, and the Vroom price compared to a similar make/model/mileage vehicle from CarMax was $3,000+ cheaper. I selected my vehicle over a few weeks of looking at photos. I filled out a credit application online, and they immediately called me to finalize the app, discuss rates and payments, and to get my $500 deposit. I received a loan package via FedEx 2 days later, signed all the paperwork, and sent it back in the pre-paid FedEx envelope they provided. About 3 days later, I started getting emails to schedule delivery. The process only took 9 business days from the moment I made the deposit to the moment I got my vehicle. The vehicle was clean, just as described, and runs great. Now I just need to get a state inspection and add this to my insurance policy, and the tags will be mailed to me in a few weeks. Thankfully, Vroom gives me a 60-day temp tag so there is ample time to receive the plates. This is the future of car-buying, and the 7-day money back guarantee makes it the perfect way to purchase a used vehicle.

Pros: I love the mileage spring through fall, but it drops 10-15+ mpg when temps are under 32°... 1/4 of the year in these parts... Great head and leg room front & back seats. Amazing cargo capacity if/when you need it. Peppy if/when you need it. Cons: Reduced winter mileage (26 to 30 mpg vs 42 to 50 spring through fall). My average mpg is 42.5. Less than impressive heating system (I use a lap blanket even with heated seats) Chronic rear latch open/close failure...dealer replaced it summer 2018 but same problem continues. No 4WD/all wheel drive available. Overall a decent ride, but definately not best for colder climates. Last year melting snow refroze overnight in the space between the rear roof end and the top of the rear hatch... the resulting ice blocked the rear hatch from opening until it melted and drained out of the gap. The hatch open and close failures were well established before this event. I have visited the service department repeatedly and still the rear hatch does not open and close when the correct buttons are pressed. I also need an all wheel or 4 wheel drive vehicle, and enough cabin heat to beat northern winter temps... ready to look for something else.

We now know why these guys are the #1 Ford Certified Dealer in the Nation. We were shopping for a Certified Ford C-Max (the plug in hybrid) last May and checked out several dealers in the Tampa Bay area. While many stores offered us great service and good pricing, the deal that we got at Brandon Ford was almost a thousand dollars less than the best deal we found anywhere else. On top of that, we had a completed deal for our trade in at another store that would buy ours for cash, and Brandon Ford offered us even more money to make it possible to do the whole deal there with them. What a TIME SAVER that was!!! JC Clements was our salesperson, and he stayed on top of everything and was very communicative about each step along the way. The vehicle was cleaned up and ready for us when we arrived to take delivery and all of the paperwork was printed out and waiting for us. Our finance manager, Barrie Moss, made the final step of the process quick and painless. He even saved us money over our own bank on the financing and found a way to extend the Ford Certified warranty for 8 years at a super affordable rate, because of the low mileage that my wife and daughter drive. We had a few electrical issues with the vehicle after we took delivery and that is where these guys really shined. They made that part as painless as possible and put us in a FREE rental while the work was completed... They even replaced the defective plug in charger at no additional charge, which saved us over $300. So glad we bought from the folks at Brandon Ford... They sure did us right!

I love ’’ my red C-Max. Tan leather interior, style, is sexy and, when is being driven I get thumbs up ’. I got a Gord in memory of my late husband. He loved ford. We had edge, F150, explore. And a fiesta.

My service advisor Phil is always polite, conscientious and explains fully what my car needs and what was done on my car. I feel I can trust his expertise and advice.

Like it a lot. Ride is very smooth. We drive a lot and need good gas mileage. Looking forward to enjoying this car. Wish they did not stop making them

After purchasing our 2016 Ford Mustang from Jesus Van Der Henst for my husband, it was my turn! After checking several other dealers for a sedan I thought I might like, I decided to go back to Jesus & revisit the 2016 Ford Taurus he had me test drive the day before. He was right, this was my car & now IS my car! He was so helpful & patient with us prior to my decision to buy. I love having something that not many other people have & this fit the bill, right down to the color! Because of this being a full size vehicle, which I love, & a model that not too many others want because of the large size, I was sold. You buy a car because it appeals to you & having a personable Salesman, helps make the experience more exciting. Well, I have to say that coming in without knowing what I wanted & leaving with a car that I just LOVE tells me that Jesus made my time very enjoyable! He was such a sweet gentleman & very knowledgeable in answering all of our questions, as was our financial guide, Vincent Ippolito. I recommend Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel for a great selection of cars & wonderful service! Thanks for helping us purchase our "2" new cars, Jesus!!!

The first 2 tankfuls of gas - 44 and 46.5 MPG ! Great commuter/ family car. Handles great and it is quiet. Well built and stable on the highway.

We came to look at a car fax truck 04 Ford and ended up in a 2010 f-150 couldn't be happier. Thanks to Preston we were able to negotiate a price that we could afford. We never felt under pressure and felt like he was working for us thanks. We will definitely send any of our friends there, and the barbecue was worth the trip. Gotta go Mr Maurice Paquin😎😎

This will be our forever car - averaging 41.8 mpg since new. Can travel over 500 miles 0n a 10 to 11 gallon fill up. Very comfortable & practical - small suv/crossover has plenty of space. With hybrid system it drives well with good pickup. Wife & I both love it.

I came into this dealership with a trade in that I only had for 2 years. I obviously was upside down and knew I would be leaving with a higher payment. Not only did they offer me more then was expected, they kept working to get me exactly what I wanted and they kept working on it until I got the best deal. I was approved at 15% interest and they were able to get it down to 3.4% 😲 I couldn't be more happier! These guys really look out for your best interest! Also go see Geoff because he is amazing. They have a new lifetime customer!

and this is on my short list. The only draw back is it doesn't have AWD, but that is not a deal breaker w/me, my wife wants AWD. I'll be buying for me, to pass on to her when my driving days have passed. So her approval is important. About handling, it is wonderful and fast, rides like a much larger car. It is easy to enter, both front and back,and has plenty of trunk space, if you stay away from the "Energi" model.

My husband's worse nightmare is buying a car, However we had the pleasure of buying a 2018 Ford Explorer from Brandon Ford on September 8 and it was a pleasure. My husband went on line and this dealership had the type of car we were looking for. We had read to call a dealership before we travel there to ensure they actually have the car. Bob spoke with Russ Anderson, our salesperson, and he assured us the cars were actually there. After driving 2 1/2 hours we arrived at a huge lot of spotless cars. Russ Anderson was knowledgeable, helpful and personable in showing us the vehicles we were interested in. Their online prices and descriptions were real. He patiently explained all of the features including the Ford SYNC which was very helpful. We then went inside to see if we could make the deal with our trade in vehicle. The showroom and was clean and even the bathroom was nice.There was coffee, water and snacks available. After minimal discussion we struck the right deal, receiving a fair price for our tradin. The financial person was also great. She was efficient and friendly. In fact, I noticed that the employees working there, including the front desk area, actually seemed to be having a good day! It was just a nice atmosphere. I will return to this dealership in the future when I'm ready for my next car Highly recommend! Bob and Marylou Belote

This car meets all of our needs. It is fantastic on gas we get over 4mpg and are very happy with it! Even though we have two cars and a truck, this is the car we use most often..My wife is short and love The fact that the seat moves high enough for her to see to drive.
