Our salesman, Trevor, was outstanding. He was genuine, patient, and listened. Trevor is not your typical “car salesman”! Corwin provided the best price in town and the transaction was quick, easy and smooth.
Great SUV, NOISY inside. Get ext. Warranty!
2016 Platinum. Nice SUV, comfortable, very powerful, decent fuel economy, fair build quality, but there are some things to be aware of; the AWD models have a PTU (power transfer unit) which sends power to the rear wheels. It is positioned very close to the exhaust, and the heat generated by the turbochargers literally cooks the gear oil in the PTU, causing it to fail. The unit only holds about a quart of oil, and is NOT serviced or checked, even when you have the vehicle serviced at the dealer. We had trouble with the front camera, and the recirculation actuator on the climate control. If you are considering a used Explorer, I highly recommend buying the best warranty you can! The only complaint I have is the road noise. On new pavement, it's quiet, but on all other roads it's VERY loud inside!

Good Experience
I had to get a car in one day. A terrible pinch for the dealership. They rose to the occasion with kindness and honesty and had me out-the-door with a great deal before 2pm. Thanks especially to Delane Sheppard and Levi Durst. You guys made a difficult day easy!
BEST Upgrade I Have Gotten!!
This vehicle is everything iv wanted and MORE! I showed up to the dealership with a price range I wanted to stick by & wanted the ability to get a vehicle that had a 4X4 button to drive through the weather in the winter. I was not only able to get these two things from my purchase but also came with lots of extra bells and whistles

Hey everyone, meet Shawn Johnson at Crest Lincoln.
Hey everyone, meet Shawn Johnson at Crest Lincoln. This guy is definitely a sales wizard and has to be the heart of Crest. His uncanny ability to connect with you will leave you feeling like you matter and not just another sale under his belt. He definitely has a knack for sales that can only be described as ‘legendary.’ He really worked hard to get us what we wanted! I mean, this has to be the best salesperson I've ever had, and I have had several cars financed. He is cool, funny, caring, and just an overall really nice guy. If I could go back tomorrow and do it all over again, I would just to feel that great experience again! When I left that day with my new car, I felt like I was driving a million-dollar car. Shawn, if you read this, I just want to say thank you again, man. You're the best, and nothing less! If anybody says different, tell them to come see me, lol! Review readers, know this if nothing else: Shawn Johnson is the go-to guy over at Crest Lincoln. 36200 Van xxxx Ave, Sterling Heights, MI 48312. Charles/Looped

Byron, or sales associate, was extremely helpful throughout the sales process. We were coming to the dealership from an hour and a half away. They were able to accommodate our schedule, allowed us to arrive before they opened, take the test drive and had us out the door with our new car in an hour and a half.

We were looking for a new vehicle. We have shopped several dealers and Auto Nation Chevy was by far the most accommodating. Our salesman was very knowledgeable, understood our needs, and helped us find exactly what we wanted. We are thrilled with the new truck and would definitely recommend them.

Outstanding service.
Outstanding service. Worked with Erik for my first oil change in Service. He was super fast, got to the point, gave me accurate time frame for completion and communicated with updates while I was waiting. Also, Robert with customer service was awesome and even offered and bought me a star bucks coffee while I was waiting. Probably best dealership in country.

Caidan Becker in sales was the best!
Caidan Becker in sales was the best! I had the absolute pleasure of working with Caidan, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! From the moment I walked onto the lot to the moment I drove off in my car, she made the entire process smooth, stress-free, and even enjoyable. Caidan took the time to really understand what I was looking for, answered all my questions with patience and honesty, and never once made me feel pressured. She and her sales manager Tyler went above and beyond with every step of the process. If you're in the market for a car and want to work with someone who’s knowledgeable, genuine, and truly cares, go see Caidan. I'm so happy with my purchase and grateful for such a great experience!

The service went well as expected with the exception that the service tech failed to return my wheel lock key to my vehicle which I realized a few feet down the road. when I went back to retrieve it I was advise by a remaining service advisor that all the service tech have left for the day and the area was locked up and I would need to come back the next day. This was not acceptable and I asked the service advisor to find someone with access which he was kind to do. He when retrieved 4 wheel lock keys to confirm which belonged to my truck. this suggest this is not an isolated issue and there or 3 others missing their wheel lock keys. This issue needs a process improvement action to preclude further some incidents.
