Used Ford Explorer for sale in Columbia, CT

Went in for oil change and tire rotation. The friendliness of the service people and the quality of work is why I keep going back!

I swore all of my life I would never buy a Ford. Once I brought my F150 Harley, I loved it. Which made me eager to but this Explorer for my wife and daughter. We are now a FORD FAMILY.

This is a top shelf dealership. I had the pleasure of buying a clean used car from Columbia. Everything I was told on the phone was exactly as it turned out; even better. The price I was told was the exact price I paid, not a cent more. I must admit I was expecting to be bamboozled a little, isn't that what car dealers do? That did not happen here, everyone I met was great, even the guys that work the lot and their mechanics are helpful and polite. Thanks Eli, Jake & John Stenik

I have heard a thump in the front end since I've had it and don't understand why this is happening 2017 Ford Exspoler XLT every time I turn my car to the left is there any recalls about this issue? William Wilson.

We recently just purchased a Lincoln Aviator from Hoffman Lincoln and it was the best experience I’ve ever had. Jason Grant is by far the best salesman I have ever met. I truly felt it didn’t matter if I bought the vehicle or not, he was right there to help me out with whatever I needed with zero pressure whatsoever. He has earned the respect of this newly life long customer. What an amazing man!!!!!!

We’re sold on always purchasing the Ford Explorer XLT. This is our third Explorer. Satisfied with the most recent latest purchase. We’re having fun learning it’s features.

This is my 4th Ford Explorer over the last 20 years and I am very happy. Every time I upgrade is nicer in every aspect. I am glad that after so many people telling me to just go to another style and company, I made the right decision.

Jason and Brandon were fantastic. Financing was simple with plenty of options given to work with. They made the process of buying a new car very easy.

Bought the Explorer about 18 months ago. So far we have put 20,000 miles on it. No problems at all. The 2.3 eco boost engine is plenty powerful and the gas mileage is exceptional. We usually get between 26 and 28 mpg. Love the factory tow package, the heated seats, the heated steering wheel (you don’t know what you are missing if you have never had it), & the Apple car play is great for navigation using our IPhones .

Had a great experience at Hoffman! Was referred by a friend and so glad I went through with it. Bought my very first vehicle that was nice enough to require a monthly payment, and I’m so glad I went here. Kyle, Pedro and Alex were so welcoming, accommodating and friendly. I was able to take the vehicle for an extended test drive and it really helped seal the deal. They were very reasonable in terms of my asks, and helped me understand every part of the process. Will be bringing the vehicle back in to utilize the warrantee and get some very minor repairs and expect that to also be a very smooth process. No complaints at all, only good things to say!!!

I reluctantly traded in my 2013 Taurus for a Ford Edge in 2017. I considered this a downgrade in comfort and luxury. I had decided not to go with the Explorer at that time because of the lower fuel economy. When the 2020 Explorer XLT came out, it had a highway rating of 28 MPG which was the same rating I was getting from the Ford Edge. My Ford Taurus always surprised me with its excellent fuel economy. I could get 32 MPG easily on long drives. The Edge would give me 26 MPG on the highway and about 18 MPG around town. The 2020 Explorer is so much more comfortable than the Edge. The kids love sitting in their own chairs. They have plenty of space and when they start getting on each other's nerves or my wife's, they can easily split up with one of them sitting in the last row. I have managed better than 30 MPG on long trips with the Explorer. My average driving comes in at 25 MPG. I have had no mechanical problems with the Explorer what-so-ever. I now have 20,000 miles on it. I got the towing package which has really turned out to be useful. I use it to carry bikes with a hitch carrier. I have rented a U-Haul traller on several occasions instead of renting a pick-up truck. It is only $20 per day to rent a tailor. I really enjoy the Android Auto feature. The major complaint that I read on the Ford Explorer is that they claim that the shifting is not smooth or that the car is noisy. I find that the car rides very nicely and is very quiet when you are on the road. The 10-speed transmission is obviously going to be doing lots of shifting to get you up to speed. That is a lot of gears. Those gears are the reason i am getting over 30 MPG on a large 7 passenger SUV. I don't mind a bit of busy shifting in order to save fuel. I know that the KIA Telluride is very highly regarded in this category. The Telluride advertises 21 MPG overall. I am very happy to get the mileage I am getting now. I also got a pretty good discount from Ford when I bought the Explorer. I believe that the Ford Explorer is an ideal vehicle for families. Fuel Economy is unbelievable for a vehicle this size with so much power. I always put Explore in the Economy mode when I drive. I can feel the power drop when I put it in this mode. In the normal mode, I get about 26 MPG on the highway but in the Economy mode, I get 30 and better.

Thanks to CarMax services Team I can now relax and drive my car. They were so helpful and I trust them will never ever ever go to any dealer for my car repair. Special thanks to Carolyn for being so nice and understandable.

Love the inside room, 3rd row seat and the fact that the 2nd and 3rd row can be collapsed. Love the rear camera and all of the functions of being able to bring my phone apps up on the screen. So good for our very busy, on the go lifestyle

The employees there are very friendly. Since I live so far away they were able to do the financing over the phone. They fixed everything that was wrong and the sales guy AB was very nice

It drives really smooth & easy maneuverable vehicle,JAZZ SINGH STAR AUTO HELPED ME PICK IT OUT & it drives great,I’m so pleased on my purchase I’m glad I decided on the Ford Explorer

I haven’t bought a car in the last 15 years. Matt made the experience easy and answered all my questions efficiently and quickly. I would definitely be a return customer!!

I have owned 7 Ford cars a pickups and wouldn’t own any other brand. I have bought 5 from this dealership and they have been great.

i bought a 2011 ford fusion and i love it the car is black on black its super clean and it drives like its brand new

It has been a very good car except a couple of times I have had a very hard time turning & now there is a popping in the front when turning the wheel especially backing up. I called Ford & they told me if I live on a dirt road that year is notorius for getting dirt up in the suspension. They said they could change it out & charge me several hundred dollars & I would be right back in next year with the same problem. However I am kinda worried about this & hauling my grandchildren & others around. I asked if they had that much problem why are they not recalled with a new part that doesn't do that??

I can not say enough about my experience. I always had an aversion to buying cars, due to the high pressure sales tactics. In the past, i would have family members deal with the experience and i would show up and just do the paperwork. I am please to say- this has been the most pleasurable car buying experience. Thank you Dave and Francisco (and all the other staff) for such a pleasant experience. I highly recommend Blasius in Middletown.

I had a really great experience and drove away the same day with car I wanted. These guys really do everything they can to make the experience stress free and relaxing.

Mr Colin frayne he is a good man to deal with if u want to purchase a new car he smiles he give the answer u want make the deal come true

I’m absolutely in love with my 2018 Ford Explorer XLT! It’s exterior appearance is eye catching and the inside is so nice. Lots of room and meets all the needs for me and my family!

Worked with Szymon and ended up with a fair deal on a used Rav4. The car had a few dents on the hood so I wasnt certain I wanted to buy it. They ended up getting them out after 1st having a dent service try to take them out. When it didn't work successfully, they sent the car to their body shop and had them smoothed out so they would have a happier customer and get a sale. After I got home from leaving the dealership, I realized none of the buttons on the key worked to open or lock the doors. They had me go back when the key service was there a few days later and the key was programmed, and they gave me a spare key which also was programmed correctly. This customer service attention to detail really made the car buying service great, when it's usually nerve wracking and you end up feeling bitter or taken advantage of when you get a new car.

This SUV met all of my needs. It has been reliable so far. I only purchased a few weeks ago. Have showed it off to many of my friends and family. Thank you Gary Yeoman

Nick Archer the general manager was great. Very attentive.Carlos the finance manager was very friendly. We did have issues with our paperwork. But that was because the system was down . Not his fault. Our salesperson did some things ok Others not. Went it was time to go through the vehicle, he rushed through it. He paired my phone to the Car but said he did not know how to do my wife's. He did not even try. He set up things before we got into the vehicle and said he set it up the way he liked it. Did not ask how we wanted it.He did not go over Blue Link With us . Just handed us a stack of papers about it. Maybe that's the way it's done at the dealership. But if not This salesperson needs training.

Probably the best SUV my wife and I have owned and we’ve had many different makes and models since 1992. The styling must be good because a lot of other SUV’s are copying it.

I had a great experience buying my Ford Fusion at Putnam Ford. Matt in sales was really friendly and helpful in answering all my questions and wasn't pushy like some salespeople. He was even nice enough to pick me up from the Enterprise in Brooklyn, CT when Enterprise couldn't give me a ride since it was after their closing time. Dave in Finance was also a really nice guy and arranged for someone to drop off my new plates closer to Hartford so I wouldn't have to make another trip out to Putnam. Overall I was really pleased with the service and my experience there.

This is my 3rd Explorer. Very reliable, handles great, in all weather, roomy, even when packed for vacation or taking our german shepherds for a ride.

Melody was very helpful and friendly. No one connected with this dealership was pushy in any way. Price is explained, warrantee is explained, Carfax was provided. I felt no pressure from this business at any time. Would go back again in the future.

My Explorer has met all my needs and has all the space I needed for my big family. I don’t have to worry now when out on the road if I’m gunna make it or not.

We found our 2018 chevy volt and purchased it from tjmotors in connecticut and had it delivered to us in DC. Todd and Mike gave us great honest and efficient service. We had the car in 6 days after the first phone call.

I found a small crack in the grill and Gary got me a new OEM grill from a ford dealer and had it installed while we did the paperwork with John. John was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I've never had a more relaxing, comfortable experience buying a vehicle in my life. I love my new F150 and would recommend them highly!

Hey New Guy Mike Help Me And My Daughter Like He's Been There For Years Very Respectful An Straight Up Guy, Mike You Did Your Thing!!!!!

i have purchased cars from Fairmont Ford and Gregg Smitherman. I am pleased with the service and knowledge. I like the fact that when we go into the dealership they know who we are and are always willing to help.

Bought the minivan from Carvana. There were more scratches and defects than what was listed on the site.. However the overall buying experience was way better than the traditional

This is is a super good car never broke down for the 6 1/2 years that we owned it. The plastic components in our car are like falling apart (Probably because we have 3 kids who are really good at breaking stuff) but its not bad. In some SMALL areas the paint is starting to bubble but on the newer models ford has fixed this problem. We have used it for off-roading and let me tell you ITS VERY CAPABLE. Also in my opinion it looks nice.
