I would like to give a special thanks to Jeremy for being very professional and knowledgeable with my car. He answered every question I had and gave me a really good deal to fix the issues within the car. Thank you jeremy! He definitely deserve a raise!

Got my black beauty oil changed today. Although it took time it gave me time to pay bills, relax, read my Bible, have some expresso and coffee with a small snack supplied by basil. Wonderful service and a great way to start my day thanks Basil you are a blessing.

The service department is amazing. Jose excels at customer service. He makes sure you understand what was done in a friendly manor. He’s always taken good care of me. Also a new thing that was nice, I think her name was Jenny. She was checking to see if everyone was taken care of. Thanks everyone I was in and out in a timely manner.

I cannot begin to express how easy Basil made buying a new car. Ed and Jordan made everything as smooth as possible to get me in a newer vehicle without breaking bank, considering how the car market is right now. It was the best experience I’ve ever had at a dealership, no BS and very straightforward. I can’t recommend these guys enough!

This was a much more positive buying experience than I have experienced in the past at other local dealerships. There was no bs, everything was pretty straightforward, and when they reached their limit they stated so. They gave a reasonable offer for a trade in. When I brought the truck back a day after purchase because a tail light bulb went out, they replaced it free if charge and even expedited me in the service line. Overall it was a good buying experience.

Went in for an oil change and tire rotation at the QuickLane. I’m not sure I’d call it “quick”, as it took about 2hrs for them to complete the service. Any and all service representatives I spoke to were kind and courteous. The waiting area is clean and comfortable with snacks, coffee and water. The restrooms were also clean. All in all a decent visit, just a bit longer of a wait than expected.

This is my second experience with Basil Ford. I had purchased 2 Ford Explorers and let me tell what a wonderful staff and service I have received at the dealership. They explain everything in detail when purchasing and very friendly in my opinion. I have bought cars from different dealerships in my life and this has been far most the best customer service. Service has been wonderful as well as I had a few recalls and the wait really isnt long.

Great service everyone is so nice. I especially like Aaron. He is a true gentleman, Basil should be glad they have him. I bought all my trucks there because the service is excellent. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thank you Basil crew.

This was a very good experience in that no other dealer has done the shuttle me home and wait then pick me up when work is done. That was very nice and would hope that others do the same. I was all set to wait it out but definitely liked waiting at home. Great idea and the wait wasn’t long either. I highly recommend it. Thank you

Edit: I am awaiting results from a dent at least being attempted to fix, at time of signing. I love my car which otherwise appears perfect, but this was discussed. I will be happy to change my rating back to five stars when this has been addressed. Doug and Mike were still awesome and haven’t made me feel like a burden for inquiring, but it has been a week with no update from their repair team.Basil did look into the other inquiries I had quickly, and without issue.

I stopped in to quick lane at my basil dealer on Walden.. I was here for my 1st inspection of my one year old truck and of course I was 6 days overdue. I spoke with Aaron regarding timing and how long I would have to wait. He could see the look on my face and knew I didnt have time to wait. He asked me a few more questions about my vehicle, we talked about coming back the following week and then he asked me to hang on a second came back 2 minutes later and they were able to take me within 45 minutes my truck was done. The Tech also noticed that my oil change was way way overdue way overdue I was able to get that done at the time. Overall experience 5 customer service 5 attention to detail 5. Aaron is an asset to your business. Cant say enough just awesome!awesome!ThanksPaul Barnes

If you get into an accident, don’t go here cause they obviously don’t know how to fix cars properly. Got into an accident and got hit on my right headlight. While they fixed it fine externally, they neglected to check under the hood failed to fix my water pump and pulleys which caused the car to overheat immediately when I left the lot so now the engine is busted. They refuse to acknowledge their incompetency and blame it on my car despite my car being completely fine before the accident. The workers attempted to gaslight me into believing that they weren’t at fault despite me knowing they were. Never going back there again.

Honestly the best dealership experience Ive ever had!I drove over 450miles to pick up a 2018 Jeep GC so pictures, communication and honesty were extremely important coming from a distance. I traded my car for a very fair price and they stuck to their word on everything and were super easy to work with. In and out in about an hour with no BS and nothing to complain about.Thank you Basil Ford!

I’ve had terrible experiences at other dealers where I’ve felt like I was a hostage or being harassed. Not the case here. Friendly, accommodating, and most importantly a fair offer off the bat for my trade-in (didn’t try to low ball or play games). Highly recommend doing business with Basil.

I had been looking for the right vehicle for almost a year and this place immediately was very professional, kind, and most importantly, knowledgeable about their vehicles! I had been to 4, yes 4 other dealerships and this place went above and beyond for me. Mike Cross is the one of the most extremely thoroughly and kind sales persons I have had the pleasure to meet. All of my co-workers and friends are amazed by the luxury car I got from this dealership! The price, the luxury look, the technology, the mobile app with your vehicle... Ford, all i can say is youve done it!

The staff were wonderful when I came in for my first oil change and maintenance as well as an inspection. They had to work twice as hard as there was a power outage that affected just about everything, except the positive and professional attitudes of everyone I dealt with!

I purchased a f350 desiel dump truck at Basil Ford on galleria drive the value they gave me for my trade in was great and the price of my new truck was even better. The sales people are friendly.

** Buyer Beware ** Get EVERYTHING in writing particularly with the Ranger Trucks This is on their site and wrong >>>>>>> ((((( Ford Ranger Towing Capabilities and Features The Ford Ranger towing capacity of 7,500 pounds is standard across the board ))))) If that Ranger has a tow package the truck can tow 7000-7500 lbs. without only 3500 lbs. I was told it was part of the Tremor Package, I was told by the same person three times it had a tow package. We were ready to go down with a deposit and my gf decided to email everything they told us in writing to confirm the information One response back it doesnt have a tow package, no apology nothing. I called to find out what happened and asked again how much it can tow was told 7000lbs. ????????? I said that wasnt accurate. Finally I reach the same rep and he said he checked a box that declined the tow package when he ordered the truck Mind you the same rep that told me it three times the night before that it did. Had I not put everything in writing and asked them to confirm it I would own a Ranger over 40K that could only tow 3500 lbs ** Buyer Beware ** No response back saying youre going to look into this. Your a FORD DEALER you knew what you were doing.

The staff is Professional and Courteous, There is no delay upon arrival. They get You in and out as soon as possible. I was not able to have the work completed because I could not afford the cost, but if I was able to, Basil Ford would be the only Dealership that I would go to for work on my vehicle. They really have their stuff together.

The experience I had with Basil Ford was top notch. I had to go out of the Rochester area to find what I wanted. Colin Rose worked the figures and got me the best price. The deal was easy and done mostly via email and text. The deal was worked out and left pending a test drive. The test drive went awesome and I drove my new 2020 F150 home that day. The Finance Department was easy to deal with and helpful. They got me the best rate possible. Thanks for making the new truck purchase easy. Id reccomend you guys to my friends even though you are an hour away.

Mike Cross is one of the best at his job. After visiting several dealers in the area and dealing with salesmen who are interested in simply sliding numbers around, Mike came along and earned my business now and in the future. He simply listened to what I wanted, the numbers I was hoping to hit and didnt push me on what I wanted my monthly payment to be. Mike bent over backwards to help me get the best deal and rebates. On top of that he handled every detail of my purchase so all I had to do was show up and drive away. Truly an amazing experience!

I had a fantastic experience with sales consultant Nick Valint and also team member Aaron Miechurski. During my time searching for a used car, Nick was straightforward and honest with me - and was able to meet me at a very fair price once I decided to purchase one. Aaron was also able to work with me on the price of the warranty, and extended some human courtesy my way after finding out that I had maxed out my budget on the car itself (warranty and fees had slipped my mind). All in all, a 10/10 in customer service - honest, straightforward, and professional.

So far Im loving my new truck. Mike Ross did an excellent job selling the vehicle and assisting me with the numbers he knew I didnt want to go over my budget. He was very respectful and kept me up to date with everything. Mike Ross is very professional go see him at basil. The only issue I had was my credit was ran multiple times when I came in I said I only wanted it ran with capital one because I had a preapproval. Next day I had multiple inquirys really for no reason because it was capital one I wanted to finance through anyway. But that was not Mike that was another person who ran it accidently

Had an awesome experience with Basil Fords service department. Even without an appointment they were able to trouble shoot issues with my F150 and get the work done within hours. They also found additional issues that required over 10 hours of labor and worked with my 3rd party warranty to make sure it was properly approved even with push back from the warranty company. Overall I walked away with less than a 200$ bill when the work was over 2800$. I worked with Mike in the service center and he was awesome with texting me updates and keeping me informed with the status of paperwork and the warranty. Basil’s service center is awesome.

I dropped my car off to Mike on a Monday night,1/4/2021 at about 6:00 pm since my power steering suddenly went in my car. He informed me that he had no available appointments until the following Tuesday, 1/12/2022 but if possible he would see if he could get the car looked at before the The next day,1/5/2021, Mike called me and informed me that my car was done! I will absolutely be returning to Mike and Basil Ford for any service that needs to be done on my car from now on.

Service is absolutely terrible. No organization and employees ignore you. Multiple people NOT WEARING MASKS DURING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC. As people helping the public I was shocked at the callous disregard for others’ health as indicated by employees not wearing masks and eating while talking with customers. Newsflash. Plexiglass is not an efficient safety measure by itself. All employees and customers should be mandated to wear masks at all times when facing the public. I will never go back to this dealership. Absolute garbage.

I was able to make an appointment online and be in the garage within a few days at a time that was convenient for me.When I arrived I was seen right away. I felt safe due to the social distancing rules they had in place. Everyone was wearing masks, there was a sneeze guards in place, and red boxes to show where I should stand.The man who checked me in was very personable and knowledgeable. Even though the price he quoted me for a service and part I needed was ridiculously expensive - He actually gave me a fair quote that was comparable to other local places that I had checked with prior. Guess its just the nature of the car garages.The reason I went to Basil over another place is because I trust them. They have a well deserved reputation of being professional. They are very efficient and treat my time like their own.

Always a hassle with the service department. Always waiting longer than promised or rushing the job and creating more problems While changing an O2 sensor they broke the sensor off in the catalytic converter. I understand while some unforeseen situations arise, giving me a factual repair timeframe and good communication is important. Now Im waiting longer and wasnt offered a discount on the repair due to their carelessness. They did provide a free rental vehicle. Thank you for that!

Love the deal I got on my sub, my payments are very decent. They conformed to me to made it easier for me because I did not have a vehicle mine was broken, so they allowed me to do most of my buisness via email messenger, and by texts. Because I was unable to get a ride there. My vehicle is and was and still is in excellent shape. Nothing but good things to day about this place
