Used 2020 Ford Escape for Sale in Auburn, IN

Elder Ford is the best-run dealership I've ever done business with during the last 50 years! Everyone is friendly and, more importantly, knowledgeable. I won't take my '14 Taurus (purchased at Elder Ford) anywhere else for service.

I took my car to Bob Bell Ford for routine service and because my check engine light had randomly come on, even though nothing seemed to be different/wrong with my car. Little did I know that I would end up needing $2700 in unexpected repairs/service. Robin (service representative I corresponded with throughout the process) was extremely helpful and pleasant; she made an otherwise stressful experience go extremely smoothly and positively. The work was done quickly (dropped the car off Monday knowing they couldn't do a diagnostic test til Tuesday, picked it up Thursday evening despite the fact that they found an additional issue after the initial repairs on Wednesday). I could immediately feel and hear a difference once I picked the car up. They did a fabulous job throughout the entire process.

I recently purchased an F150 from this location and was thrilled with my overall experience! My sales representative was Jeffrey Weidmaier. His customer service skills are very rare nowadays. His honesty and charisma has lead me to purchase two vehicles from him. We told him what vehicle we were looking for and went above and beyond to locate the right vehicle for our needs. He has followed up with me on both purchases to confirm that I was satisfied with my vehicles. I highly recommend him to anyone shopping for a vehicle. Benjamin McGary was the manager we spoke to during our visits. Customer service is definitely a culture at this entire dealership as he was extremely professional and sympathetic to our budget and needs. It's great to see a manager get involved with their staff and have face to face interactions with the customer. Sarah Sarvey was a very nice woman working at the desk in the main entrance of the building. We had our young children with us and she gave them both crayons, a coloring book and a balloon. This definitely kept the kids entertained and made the shopping experience much easier. She offered everyone popcorn and refreshments as well. Her service was also outstanding. Guy Johnson was our finance guy. He was very patient with us while we had our children in his office. We apologized for the children being noisy and he simply told us not to worry as had children the same age. He made us feel very comfortable and we appreciate that tremendously. He went into great detail about the warranties and made sure we understood exactly what we were purchasing. The owner of this dealership must be doing something right to keep such a great staff around. The camaraderie around the dealership is refreshing. Teamwork is obviously a top priority at this dealership. I look forward to working with these guys again and strongly recommend anyone in the area to swing buy for a great and reliable vehicle. I promise, you won't regret it!

Jeff Carter with Mac Haik Desoto Pre-owned Internet Sales This is the best gentleman, in my professional opinion, if you???re in the market for a vehicle you need to get acquainted with how to get the best deal possible. It was as easy as deciding what vehicle I wanted to buy, which was a Jeep Compass Sport, then Jeff searched the internet , then offered me a price lower than what he could find on line. All the shopping was done for me so I knew I was getting the best solution for my needs. Just to be safe I went, I always suggest a person checks this out, to edmonds.com to get a fair market price of the Jeep I was interested in purchasing. Jeff???s price was over $2,000 less than what Edmonds could locate in the area. Kelly???s Blue Book use to be the ???go to??? resource for car worthiness but Edmonds is the most up to date site of true market value. I actually entered the Jeep???s VIN number to do a spot on internet search. Not only do you get the best price, you also get great customer service. I am a person that hates buying cars, going to market in Mexico, and just dealing with price negotiations. I wish what the price was on the car is what you paid at every business that sells automobiles. However, we know that???s not the case unless you go to a place like CarMax which I would not recommend. So by Jeff shopping the internet for me in reference to an identical Jeep, he just beat the best price found so I was confident I was getting a better deal had I spent countless hours researching and shopping myself. Jeff???s fellow employees work together as a team; all put forth an effort to make the process simple. When I signed the buyer papers with the finance manager there were no last minute surprises. She even went as far as discussing my credit report by pointing out suggestions that would improve my score. I have Identity thief and my credit is a mess so I???m currently working with a company getting it cleaned up and accounts that aren???t mine removed. I had totaled my previous jeep so even though it was not the right time in my ID theft resolution, Mac Haik took that into consideration making the financing a breeze. So don???t hesitate to call to get your next car, Jeff Carter at Mac Haik, even if you have challenged credit issues. You can reach Jeff Carter by calling Mac Haik???s main number and asking for him in pre-owned sales: 972-274-8365. Text him at 972-971-7920 and/or email at jcarter@machaikdesoto.com. Most of my interaction with Jeff was from texting and emails; saving me time of constantly going into the dealership which is something as I mentioned above I despise. It took me one day to look, follow-up was from the comfort of my environment by texting, phone, or emails, and then the second visit was delivery of my new Jeep. Can it get much easier? This dealership has really put the car buying industry into the future by utilizing the internet for locating cars for comparison. They simplify the purchasing process, saving me time, money, and most important I felt in control. Due to Mac Haik???s business ethics, coupled with their system approaching customer needs, it was an enjoyable car buying experience that I have never encountered in the past with other dealerships.

I made an appointment for service (oil change & tire rotation) for 11:30 a.m. on a Tuesday, and because I cannot be away from my business for very long, I also arranged a shuttle to take me back to my office. When I arrived, I was immediately greeted by both a service associate who verified my appointment and checked in my vehicle, and then escorted to my service adviser, Jeff. As Jeff was preparing my service order, I mentioned that I had arranged for the shuttle. He indicated that the shuttle was just loading and getting ready to leave, however, there was no car ahead of my Mustang and the service should take no more than 45 minutes. I chose to stay and wait, as it would have taken much longer to go and come back with the shuttle. I made myself comfortable in the waiting area, which was not very crowded, was clean and even had coffee and snacks available. I wasn't expecting my car to be ready so soon! 35 minutes after I sat down, checked my email and made a couple of phone calls, Jeff came back to tell me that my car was ready. As I was checking-out, I asked Jeff if they offered a car wash or detailing service. He mentioned the price of the detailing, but also stated that they give a free car wash with the oil change (OK, "The Works" package, which I received), however I should allow another 45 minutes. I'll do it next time. Short of not having to leave my office to have my car serviced, I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend Ferman Ford's service, based upon this experience.

I bought my 2015 Mazda CX-5 from here. Now the sales guy (I can't even remember his name) I had was worthless, but that didn't matter because I has a broker that found my car, handled all the bull that comes with the car buying experience. Once I got past that, I got a great buy! I bought the car with some body damage the dealership said they would fix. Once I got to the "behind the scenes" crew I was handled like royalty!! From the body shop to the service department and even the car rental. Special thanks to David and Kristina. I've had the car for a year now. Before my Mazda, I would never take my car to the dealer for anything. These guy changed my outlook on Dealers. They are now the only ones that ever touch my car and they handle it with great care, as well as means my family. I'm just blown away by this team!!

I had 2 parts in my car that were recalled - they took care of it along with a $36 or $38 dollar oil change when most places I've been to have charged me $60-$74 dollars. The recalled parts were free and they set me up in a rental car free of charge for 2 days. They also gave me an estimate on other preventative maintenance needed for a long lasting vehicle, the quote was far less expensive than I imagined. I will go back to them again for all of my vehicle needs.

I purchased my 2014 Ford Fusion from this dealership and I received a fantastic, honest and transparent deal. Since then, I go to Ferman Ford for any of my major service needs (of which there have been few). This time I took it in to change my brake pads, something that was brought to my attention when I was having an oil change at a tire place (a mistake I will never make again). Ferman charged me $205 dollars less than this discount place. I waited for my service to be completed, which is was in record time, comfortably from the wait room equipped with free beverages. Cameron, my repair associate was amazing and I have had zero issues. I want to thank Ferman for their amazing service and sales people.

Everyone very knowledgeable about the cars the customer brings in. Their record keeping on you auto is first rate.

Great people to work with. Our salesman Jacob is an outstanding man. We had excellent treatment in the paper work at the end.

I went to Inskeep with the intent on just trying out a vehicle and ended up buying the 2016 Edge Titanium. I researched their inventory on-line and had an idea of what I wanted. After looking around in the parking lot (I appreciated having the opportunity to look around before being hounded by a salesman!), I went inside and was quickly met by Tom. I told him what I was interested in and he got the keys and brought it up to the overhang so I could look at it without getting wet in the drizzle. He was very professional and informative, answering the questions I had and pointing out additional features, then went with me take it for a drive. When I told him I wanted to discuss it with my husband, he didn't hesitate to offer to let me drive it home so my husband and I could look it over and drive it more. I loved the comfort of the seats the minute I sat in them, and all of the features met or exceeded my needs. During the finalization of the sale, Tom got me a bag to put my belongings in from my trade-in, programmed our cell phones into the vehicle, and e-mailed me later to let me know I had left my sunglasses in my old car so I could get them back. Mark was very professional and friendly in completion of the paperwork and Patrick introduced himself to let us know that if we ever needed anything and Tom was not around, he would be happy to help us. All in all it was a very positive experience.

Folks at heavy duty service are customer oriented, quite friendly and want to meet your needs. Have had RV chassis serviced here for over two years and have always been treated by the staff at heavy duty like they are glad to have the business. I drive 50 plus miles for service because of the folks here.

I found a used Ford Fusion Energie online. I sent a message through their online messaging and they contacted me the next morning. Although the car was still in transit to the dealership they were able to work out a deal with me in advance at a very fair price. When the car was received they checked it out and I was able to come pick it up. The car was in perfect condition, it looked brand new. This was one of the few dealerships within 200-300 miles that had the Energie. It was the quickest and simplest car buying experience I have had. I would definitely use this dealership again, although I hope to not need a new car for a while.

Scheduled Saturday service for rear wheel bearing noise, I was notified by 9:30am with required replacement parts and total price. Service completed by 5:00pm, per my request, so we could finish out our day with towing the boat to the lake. Excellent and professional service! Thanks Don for making this go so smooth, you made me and my family's night!!

Brought vehicle in for oil change, multipoint inspection and for moisture problem with rear light assembly on rear hatch. Service department evaluated problem with rear light assembly, and ordered a replacement assembly. Expected part to arrive next week and will arrange for installation at that time.

Stanley Anderson was very knowledgeable about my new Taurus. He made me feel very comfortable with the purchase process and made me feel I would be very well taken care of in case of any problems down the road. There is really no need to drive to a bigger town to find a new car. Awesome experience.

Met Paul Bowers when family was looking to get a 2014 Ford CMax and it was one of the smoothest experiences with a car salesman in the last 20 yrs. Absolutely no pressure, completely accessible and very patient when it took 90 days to finally decide - we must have done 5 separate test drives. And the price was lower that the XPlan pricing i could get through work, with no hoops to jump through - their no haggle pricing is similar to the better/best pricing you would see with Truecar. Came in for basic service and snow tires as the All Weather Michelins sucked in snow. Not only did their service guy (Tom, IIRC) beat the BJs price I was quoted, he took the extra time to see if Dunn and Mavis were cheaper and they were. I ended up saving an additional $40 because he went the extra steps. My third great experience was with Bryan Zemaitis in finance. I was about to make a decision on getting the extended warranty and was about to pull the trigger on internet Ford dealer quote, which didn't include taxes. I called Van Bortel as a courtesy from my prior positive experiences and Brian not only got right back to me, he beat the internet pricing by 10%+, including NY State taxes. At every Van Bortel department I've interacted with, I've been very pleased. They seem to me like the Wegmans of car dealers, where their employees go the extra mile and still provide great prices.

I have brought by 2006 Ford Mustang in for service about 1-1/2 weeks ago. Needed a new battery and alternator. On Saturday (2/27) the battery light came one. I immediately went to Van Bortal for them to check out the issue. It was determined there was a problem with the newly installed alternator, and due to the fact that they did not have in stock for my vehicle; I was given a loaner car for the weekend and through Monday. Upon arriving to Van Bortal late Monday to pick up my vehicle; I was presented with a bill/invoice with a ZERO balance. I was surprised and I had expected to lay for labor; but to not have to pay for anything was a pleasant surprised. It was explained to be by Doug and then Rocco -- that the issue was due to a faulty part which was installed, and that I was not going to be charged for the placement for labor. Also Karen (Cashier) had signed me up for their Rewards Program, and ensured that I was given credit for past repairs which occurred during the last year. She did this without even asking, and it was so appreciated. Once again the level of customer service and doing what it right for the customer -- is just how they do things. It does not go unnoticed by me. I would HIGHLY recommend them!!!!

Van Bortel Ford takes the stress out of purchasing a vehicle. I bought a 2016 F-150; got a great deal, honest up front with no surprises. Lee Daubenspeck Sales Manager and Christen Lanzalaco Sales Rep were second to none in service professionalism, respect and friendliness. And lastly I can't leave out Mark Hawkins Delivery Specialist who gave me all the time I needed going over my F-150 features head to toe . He was attentive to detail and presented with an awesome attitude. Thanks Mark. Van Bortal Ford made my experience worth the 45 mile drive. :-)
