Used 2020 Ford Explorer for Sale in Columbia, CT

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

Went in to have my oil changed and a slow tire leak repaired on my 2005 Crown Vic (with 102000 miles on it); was able to get in right away. The technicians reported that the tire was bad (worn to the markers) so it had to be replaced, as did another one. Two others were OK. The battery was weak too (it was over 6 years old). I replaced the battery and checked tire prices and found that Tasca's prices for Michelin tires were very competitive so I had them replace the tires. They took me home while they did the work - I appreciate that courtesy. They installed the new tires, rotated two existing good tires, and aligned the car. Now I'm all safe and set for a planned trip. Everyone was very courteous and cared for me. And the cost was very reasonable too.

In for routine service plus a minor repair/part replacement. Great service! They even provide breakfast now! Jason was super helpful and love their shuttle driver too.

I had a 2014 Ford Focus with the clutch/transmission problem (3 replacements 2 under warranty 3rd paid for). I was pretty upset having to pay for a defective design that Ford cannot permanently fix. With negotiation I was able to trade in the car with 0% financing, dealership paying off the remaining 7, 800.00 as down payment on new 2018 KIA Forte and they even returned the 1,146.00 I had paid to get the third Fore Focus clutch fixed. Best yet my monthly payment remained the same and affordable. If you want to be treated fairly and with respect go to John Senek. My husband and I have bought all our cars at Columbia Ford for 25 years and John is our go to salesman. John really helped me through this negotiation and treated me with respect and fairness. He went to bat with the company leadership to see that I was treated fairly. I am now driving a new 2018 KIA Forte. John Senek is ethical, honest knowledgeable and fair. Buy your car from him! KB

My car stopped moving on the highway , and not being from the area , I had my car towed to the closest Ford dealer. The service I received was great! I felt valued even though I didn’t purchase my car there. I would defiantly recommend them for service and will look to them for my next purchase!

I purchased from Family Ford a new Fusion in 2012 and at that time they were an outstanding organization to deal with. Based on that experience, I returned to look for another vehicle; I was not disappointed. I intended to purchase/lease a new car but ended up replacing my 2007 Cadillac with a CPO 2014 Taurus (a beautiful car). Steve's patience and understanding through the whole process was refreshing. He suggested and went over several options with me and when he didn't know the answer to a question, he would get the answer. He was absolutely one of the best and easy going sales rep I've dealt with.

I have my 2015 Kia serviced at Columbia Ford Kia and I gotta say, everything there is top of the line. I never mind taking time off of work to get stuff done for my car, because I can take advantage of the wonderful Thunderbird Cafe, free internet, free coffee and water, all the while knowing that the work that I???m having done is excellent. The service folks are professional and polite, everything is clean and everyone there seems to be enjoying their job. So what???s my gripe? It???s not really a gripe, more of a request. Every place in the entire compound has music playing. That???s fine (assuming you???re ok with Classic Rock), and the Cafe and Waiting Area layer on a couple of TV???s playing news stations on top of that. Ok, that???s more than I care for already. So, imagine my surprise when I go to the restroom and find that not only is there a TV playing (loudly) right above the sinks, but for some reason, some sort of stand up comedy schtick is being broadcast through the PA on top of the TV narrative. And I wish I could say this was a one-time occurrence, but it???s not, it???s the norm. I guess there are a lot of people who need to have some sort of electronic chatter on in the background, 24-7, but I???m not that person. I really, really love the quality of work I have done at Columbia Ford Kia, but I wish to god there was one place in the entire building that I didn???t have to be subjected to endless TV/Radio/???comedy??? chatter. Would be nice to have one quiet room. Otherwise GREAT!

perfect car for my purposes, traveling, camping etc. I look forward to many fun trips and adventures, I need 25 words but for now I think this is about it.

Stopped in around September of 2017 to look into a new truck. I met Jen who was very informative and helpful, but we determined this was not the right time to buy for me. Shopped around for a couple months, got some good offers, but I knew I wanted to work with Jen again. Went back to Tasca in the middle of May of 2018, and spoke with another sales person who just wanted to make a sale and took a very long time to meet my needs. This was my first time buying a new vehicle like this, and there was a clear difference in quality of service. A few weeks later I went back and asked to work with Jen, She walked me through the whole process of what I was looking for, not one ounce of sales pressure. Very laid back, very personable and understanding, and incredibly helpful. She even was able to nearly match a better offer I had from another dealer for the same truck, and I walked out with a nicer truck than offered before. She answered every question I had (and I had A LOT) with a straightforward, to-the-point answer. Absolutely wonderful experience working with Jen and I hope to do business with her in the future.

I recommend Explorer those looking for comfort and spacious car interior. Everything is well designed and looks luxurious all over. I purchased this two months ago and might be a little soon to review its performance but so far I am happy with what I got. I just don't recommend the dealership where I bought from : " Ford of Orange, CA" stay away from them.

Gerry was awesome!! I drove an hour to come look at a car, but ended up with an even better deal - a 2006 Jeep Sport that is spectacular. He answered all of me and my mom's questions, (which were endless) and didn't push anything on me. Made a memorable experience here, and I will make sure to recommend to anyone I know who is looking for a car.

I'm a car guy and it's important how the vehicle looks......and I really like this vehicle. It'll take me awhile to get used to all the new electronics. Once I learn everything, I think this will be my favorite vehicle I've ever owned.

we love Tasca Ford. We bought a 2015 Ford Escape this weekend. Jen Robey was so wonderful in helping us find the right vehicle with the right features (dark interior and 4 wheel drive). She sat with me while I texted my husband stock numbers so he could check online. She's was wonderful to work with and sat and chatted with us while we waited for paperwork to be finalized. She even grabbed a child's window screen we accidentally left in our trade in car. We would happily return to Tasca to work with Jen Robey again! JM

This car is reliable, comfortable, and best SUV all around. Very comfortable for long car rides and best value for what you're paying! Get the best of both luxurious and safe driving.

Have had it a couple of months and on the highway at 75mph with strong wind the windshield molding flew off !! This made me look online at the part and it shows more than 34 complaints of this happening.why in the world has this not been fixed! My car sounds like a window is down on the highway and rattling the dash ! Super sad about this . 40,000 miles on it .

I detest the car buying process and all the BS that goes into it however I found that Family Ford's Sales Manager and Sales Person were top notch, honest, practical, fair, and professional at all times. I left getting a fair price for my trade, a fair price for my new vehicle and feeling that I would definitely recommend them to family and friends. Billy G. (Sales manager) & Jorge Suarez (Sales) acquitted themselves nicely and provided an admirable transaction. Simply put I would return to them for my future car needs without hesitation.

love my new explorer, easy to use, drives great, upgraded radio is user friendly with the navigation, radio, cd, and satellite. so much room the seats fold in many ways depending on what type of room you need

Wonderful car to drive. My wife had a computer failure which did not let her drive the car. Failure was "Auto Park Assist Failure" disabled power steering. We had to have it towed to the dealer. Car has only 200 miles on it. WEIRD!!

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.

Great vehicle, very comfortable to ride in, great visibility, makes driving a pleasure again. Safety features are great without the clutter and distractions on other new vehicles. Features are very intuitive to use. One feature that it came with is the front camera, I didn't think it was necessary, but after trying it out, it really is handy to see what you can't see over the hood of the vehicle.

Jesse and the service team have never given me and my wife a disappointing experience. Everyone is patient, knowledgeable, and don't push random services on you. I would drive extra mileage to have the great service this team offers.

roomy, sharp looking, comfortable and affordable, great value for my money spent. has all the traits of a more expensive suv but at an affordable price

This car does everything we need it to do and the AP for remote starting and vehicle health report is incredible.. the only fault we found in this entire car is the built in garage door opener needs major improvement we had to have it replaced the first week we owned the car and even after replacement it still is very intermittent and you must literally be in the drive way if it works at all. But outside of the garage door opener this car is incredible.
