2017 Ford Explorer XLT review

Bought this car in 2019 as my daily driver.

Bought this car in 2019 as my daily driver. It has enough space to transport my large and was very reliable until about 160,000 miles. Gasket seal and O2 sensors failed causing me $800 in repairs. Not super expensive, but like the previous review says check to see if there are any open recalls. Currently at 230,000 miles and still driving. If you follow the suggested maintenance schedule you'll be fine. If not, you'll be in for some trouble.

2017 Ford Explorer sport review

Transmission problem

I have owned Toyota and Honda vehicles for years. I love the space and comfort of my Ford Explorer. However I'm at 68k miles and just had to have my transmission rebuilt. If I didn't love the comfort and ride of this vehicle so much, I would trade it in tomorrow. I have my fingers crossed and praying this vehicle will hold out to 200k miles.

2017 Ford Explorer sport review

Explorers are great

I have had several Explorers all have been great vehicles. My newest is only a couple years old. I also still have a great running 26 year old with almost 200k miles. Never had a big or expensive problem with either. I can say the same for the BMWs, Mercedes and Infinity’s I have owned…Once these expensive vehicles warranty expired everything but their engine seemed to fall apart. My Fords are reliable and never break down (knock on wood) Not flashy like the imports but solid.

City Motor Group review

These guys rock!

I contacted them by email and they got right back to me. Most dealer don't do that. I chatted with Farren for over a half hour which really got me to know the car and the dealership. Over the next few days we had more conversations. Always polite and informative. Backed by an equally helpful administrative team. I couldn[t be more positive.

Auto Spot of Mountain Lakes review

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Experience with Alex at Auto Spot

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Experience with Alex at Auto Spot LLC I recently purchased a car from Auto Spot LLC in Mountain Lakes, NJ, and I had the pleasure of working with Alex. Let me just say, this guy is the real deal. From the moment I walked in, Alex’s impressive appearance and style made a strong first impression, and his intelligence and knowledge about cars sealed the deal. Alex is, without a doubt, one of the most talented salespeople I’ve ever come across. He wasn’t pushy at all; instead, he listened to what I needed, offered valuable insights, and helped me find the perfect car without any stress or pressure. His ability to balance professionalism with a warm, friendly demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable. If you’re in the market for a car, I highly recommend seeking out Alex at Auto Spot LLC. You’ll be working with someone who truly knows his stuff and genuinely cares about finding the right fit for you. Thanks, Alex, for making this one of the best car-buying experiences I’ve ever had! Would you like any adjustments to this review?

Just got a Bmw 528i 2016 from this dealership, the car

Just got a Bmw 528i 2016 from this dealership, the car was purchased exactly from a month ago, its been running good and no significant problems. I would like to thanks Alex for helping me out, when i went to buy i month ago the car had a check engine light, i asked Alex about it and he agreed to get it fixed for me which took 1 week, honestly i was a little disappointed at first but i trusted it them and they got it ready for me, and they were also good with the prices and no scams as i understood it was just a dealership fee. So, overall i would suggest this dealership as they didn't disappointment me much and thanks to Alex for helping me out.
