Van Bortel Ford takes the stress out of purchasing a vehicle. I bought a 2016 F-150; got a great deal, honest up front with no surprises. Lee Daubenspeck Sales Manager and Christen Lanzalaco Sales Rep were second to none in service professionalism, respect and friendliness. And lastly I can't leave out Mark Hawkins Delivery Specialist who gave me all the time I needed going over my F-150 features head to toe . He was attentive to detail and presented with an awesome attitude. Thanks Mark. Van Bortal Ford made my experience worth the 45 mile drive. :-)

I recently purchased a used F-150 from Paul Bowers. I have been looking for just the right vehicle to replace one that wasn't a good fit for me. Paul was very helpful when contacted answering my questions and helping close the deal with Bryan from finance. I have purchased many vehicles from Paul over the years and I highly recommend him and Van Bortel Ford for your next purchase.

I have brought by 2006 Ford Mustang in for service about 1-1/2 weeks ago. Needed a new battery and alternator. On Saturday (2/27) the battery light came one. I immediately went to Van Bortal for them to check out the issue. It was determined there was a problem with the newly installed alternator, and due to the fact that they did not have in stock for my vehicle; I was given a loaner car for the weekend and through Monday. Upon arriving to Van Bortal late Monday to pick up my vehicle; I was presented with a bill/invoice with a ZERO balance. I was surprised and I had expected to lay for labor; but to not have to pay for anything was a pleasant surprised. It was explained to be by Doug and then Rocco -- that the issue was due to a faulty part which was installed, and that I was not going to be charged for the placement for labor. Also Karen (Cashier) had signed me up for their Rewards Program, and ensured that I was given credit for past repairs which occurred during the last year. She did this without even asking, and it was so appreciated. Once again the level of customer service and doing what it right for the customer -- is just how they do things. It does not go unnoticed by me. I would HIGHLY recommend them!!!!

As a first time buyer, I was scare to what to encounter at any dealership, I shop for a while but the best experience was at Van Bortel. Since the beginning Chris Pelow was the man to go for me. Very professional and friendly made my girlfriend and I feel at home. They worked with me great, all the team.So now I'm a proud and happy owner of a 2015 mustang thanks to Van Bortel. Especially to Chris.

For the last 1-1/2 years, I have been bringing my vehicle to Van Bortel Ford for service. My service appointment on Friday, once again did not disappointment as to the service provided, but also the customer service provided. Rocco and all of the Service Team are the best. Even Bob, who drives the Courtesy Shuttle is the best. As I always say, it is the little things that count and mean the most, and that is what they continue to do at Van Bortel; ensure that all of the little things are done right. Highly recommend them!!!

I went to Van Bortel ford in E Rochester believing that i had a free oil change coming to me. After the car was brought into the garage I began giving information to a service rep. At this time i was made aware that I did not have a free oil change due to me,I had misunderstood an e mail about the rewards program. The goal of having everyone leave happy left me with another free oil change and I did indeed leave happy. from the time i bought my car to every time i visit them for any purpose, Van Bortel Ford of E Rochester has been friendly,professional and simply pleasant to deal with. I bought a 2012 Fusion in 2015 and i am always made to feel as if I bought the newest most expensive car on the lot. My experience with two other dealers in the Rochester area comes nowhere near matching every visit i make to Van Bortel !

After using the service department at Van Bortel for the past few years, I had made up my mind that when the time came to buy a new vehicle, I wanted to purchase it here.A couple of weeks ago, I found a Ford Fusion on Van Bortel's website that I was interested in. I went to the dealership and was immediately greeted by Chris Pelow. I stated what I was interested in and we went out to look at the car. After a test drive, we made the deal. Van Bortel even gave me more for my trade than I had expected. It took less than two hours and we made a deal. After doing extensive web research, I saved about $1,500-$2,000 by shopping here.I have been very pleased in the past with my service experience here and now I can highly recommend Van Bortel for sales as well. A no-pressure, friendly dealership that actually cares about their customers! I even received a card with Kitty Van Bortel's personal cell number if I ever have an issue and want to talk to her!! How many times have you been given the owner's cell number at any other dealership? That is just another thing that speaks to their commitment to a great customer experience.Thank you Chris, Bryan and the Van Bortel team for doing it right!

Vanbortal Ford has been very easy and simple to work with.... I loved having a broker work with me...

The day after I drove the Fusion Energi home I took my first trip of about 27 miles. The car handled much better than my previous car, a Fusion Hybrid, and at my destination the gas milage was over 103 mpg! I got 19.7 miles from the high voltage battery, and a score of 96% on regenerative braking. Driving home at night, I was particularly pleased with the automatic lights. The headlights and tail lights came on automatically and the headlights dimmed and returned to high beam faster and more efficiently than I could do manually. On one stretch of road, when there was no traffic, I purposely drove over the centerline to see what would happen and immediately a loud drowsy warning appeared on the screen! I like the looks of the car, and a friend of mine, on seeing it, became excited on how sleek it is. The staff at Van Bortel were extremely helpful with advice and also spent over 2 hours familiarizing me with the complete computer system.

I believe that the service professional that I worked with was Gabe. He took the time to call the tire company to see if they would honor a warranty a bit early so that the cost of my new tires ended up being prorated now instead of having to wait another few months which could have left me in snow without great tires. I greatly appreciated his time and efforts!

I would definitely recommend van bortel to anyone who is looking to purchase a new or used vehicle. The customer service is excellent as they get whatever needs to be done in a timely and efficient manner and I don't have to bring my vehicle back a second time and I couldn't be happier, especially because they offer a loaner vehicle while mine is being serviced which allows me to continue to do the things I need to do without worrying about transportation.

I have had great experiences at Van Bortel since purchasing my Ford Edge and with the Service department during the 100,000 miles I have put on this vehicle. They're considerate and will make changes if I point out a problem. They explain issues with my vehicle until I am satisfied. I also recently dealt with the sales staff with my mother who ultimately did not buy a Ford but we really wanted to because of the patience of the salesman that we worked with. She did pick a Camry because she felt the car was better for her (she is 80 years old and used to a Camry. Thanks for restoring my faith in Auto dealerships!

My car required 15000 service and it is inconvenient to take it to Van Bortel Subaru. Since we bought our Ford at Van Bortel Ford I am very comfortable going there for service. They were kind enough to call Van Bortel Suburu to find out what the service entailed, be sure they had the parts, and gave me an estimate and an appointment. The service was performed on time and on budget. I am always very pleased with Van Bortel sales, service, and vehicles and would not buy a car anywhere else. Thank you for making dealing with our cars a better experience.

I bought a 2016 Ford Focus Sedan and wanted to buy a manual which I found when the friendly sales person was showing me the models available in the display parking lot. I was able to test drive both the manual and automatic versions. Going through the paperwork was fine and all questions were answered, and the same was true the following day when I picked up the car. No complaints whatsoever.

I miss Dick Clark. He was pleasant and friendly. The new team of management seems aloof. If I get another Ford (and that is a big if) it will probable be with another dealer. I enjoy the cleanness of the facility and the free coffee but the place had taken on a big operation atmosphere and not the friendly personal place it once was.

it was a very pleasant and wonderful experience, I went only for a test drive of the new escape 2016 models available, because I had a 2006 XLT and it was a very reliable car , solid, good performance, good gas mileage, and I bought it from this dealership. The sales person and the sales Manager were very helpful, easy to deal with, instead of only test drive couple of modelsI left the dealership with a 2016 Escape SE model with a smile on my face.My Wife and I enjoying the new car with the comfortable ride and the new gadgets.

The service representative was relatively new and charged me for brake pads and rotors, wipers and an oil change. I asked if any of it was covered under my extended warranty or maintenance plan. I was told no, so I had planned on calling the next day and asking someone. A very kind lady called me the next morning and told me that I was overcharged and that I would be receiving a credit for $171.00 I want to thank the Van Bortel dealership for it's honesty and saving me a call. It's nice to know that I'm dealing with a dealership with integrity! I have purchased my last three cars from you and I intend to continue that habit! The staff was very helpful in fitting the brake repair in while I waited for an inspection. Thank you!!!

I had gone on-line earlier in the week to schedule an appointment to bring my vehicle in to have two snow tires placed on the front as I already had snow tires on the rear. My appointment was confirmed for Saturday (11/28). On Friday morning received a call from the person who oversees the appointment scheduling as she noticed that I had not included information as to the make/brand of snow tires which I wanted to purchase. As she stated to me, "we don't want you to come in on Saturday morning only to find out we do not have the tires in stock". I was able to get all of the information which was needed, called her back, and within 15-20 minutes she called backed having checked with the Parts Dept to confirm that they did have the snow tires in stock, and they would see me on Saturday. For me it is the little details that make the difference. I continue to be impressed with the level of customer service which each employees at VanBortal displays each time I have gone to the Marsh Road location. Continue to be a customer for life!

For the recall I dropped it off in the morning (8am) and was able to pick it up around Noon which was well before I needed to leave to work.

I took my Ford Edge in for an oil change and tire leak. Two tires needed to have the reams cleaned and tires remounted for the leak. They also noted that my ty-rod ends where bad. They took me back to my vehicle to show me that they where bad and explained why they where bad. I had them replaced. I have been going to Ford Dealership for 4 1/2 years now and they have always been honest and have done an excellent job.

I like to bring my Ford Taurus to the Quick Lane for oil changes because I can have my vehicle serviced without an appointment and with minimal wait time. The staff are friendly and very helpful and the waiting area is very comfortable. The hours of operation are convenient for me; because the Quick Lane is open after 5:00 p.m. I can stop after work, have the oil changed and be home at a reasonable hour. I don't have to time away from work or give up my Saturday mornings to take care of my car!

Chtistin is the reason I will surely be recommending Van Bortel to my friends and family. Throughout the entire process her focus was earning my business and ensuring I found everything I wanted through Van Bortel. She was extremely profession, attentive and genuinely concerned for the things that were important to me within the purchasing process. I knew I would find a fine product in my Ford F150 but Christin is the reason Van Bortel earned my business. I can not thank or recommend her enough.

My only negative observation was that when I called to check on the status of needed service, I was told that I would get a call back. That call never came so when I got there we waited a while for the car to be finished. The service person said the person who was supposed to call me back went home sick. It would probably be good practice to have someone checking the voice mails of absent employees. Otherwise-GREAT!!

I regained confidence in the battery and charging system and was not charged. Thank you Van Bortel for standing behind your product! I keep returning to Van Bortel for service on my F150 because these are the right folks with the right experience to service this vehicle. keep up the good work.

Fast, easy and issue fixed completely. Thank you. I was hesitant to come back in as the last (and it was my first) time there for an Oil Change was long and unpleasant (nobody seemed to know what was going on...) so I have been going elsewhere since. I came in this time because I have the extended warrantee - I was pleasantly surprised so maybe I will try an oil change again next time.

I purchased a 2010 Transit Connect from Van Bortel Ford 5 years ago (put 125,000 miles on it)and have had a great experience with the sales and maintenance teams. I just purchased a new 2015 Transit Connect and was treated to another great no pressure sales experience. The 2015 Transit Connect is vastly improved from the older model. It rides very nicely, The interior is quieter, The old style key lock gas cap and hood have been replaced with the no cap gas and the hood now opens like regular cars. It has better acceleration (I got the eco-boost turbo engine) and get's better gas mileage too. It also has a nicer loading deck and a really nice LED light in the cargo area. I highly recommend this vehicle for anyone with a small business that has their eye on great gas mileage and ease of transporting products. I also got the bluetooth and phone sync so i can listen to texts and make phone calls hands free. This is a great feature for business owners that need to keep in touch while on the road. I test drove the Chevy/Nissan and the Dodge similar sized vans and think the Ford Transit Connect is superior in many ways. There are many other updates on the Transit Connect that make the new model a pleasure and fun to drive. I highly recommend Van Bortel Ford when you need to purchase a car or van or truck.

Great job - resolved an issue that an independent shop couldn't resolve, despite two attempts at the repair. Should've just brought it to Van Bortel in the first place!

After calling a different Rochester Ford Dealer with little to no assistance, I called Van Bortel and spoke with Ryan in the service department. He immediately answered my questions regarding the type of replacement tires needed for a 2013 Ford Focus and determined that the tires I wanted were in stock for a Saturday appointment with Quick Lane. I also needed a tire pressure sensor fixed on a tire that had already been replaced due to a flat. They double checked to assure there was no actual leak and then agreed that it was simply a missing sensor. Finally, there was a foam piece over the speakers in the rear of the vehicle that had deteriorated due to sun damage. They fixed it too for a nominal $8 and had the vehicle ready to roll early in the afternoon. Ryan was patient in answering my questions and provided excellent customer service that is unfortunately rare these days. Just an all around great experience.

Buying my new Ford fusion was an enjoyable process from start to finish. Christin was knowledgeable and friendly. She was able to walk me through the decision process and find a vehicle that matched my lifestyle. Brandon helped me through the financial paperwork and explained everything so that I understood it. I love my new car and I absolutely recommend Van Bortel Ford to family and friends!

We purchased a Ford Edge Titanium. Our sales agent, Christin Lanzalaco, was excellent. She has great knowledge of the car and all the details and was able to answer all our questions as we shopped. After our purchase she communicated with us regularly as we waited for our car to be built and delivered. She celebrated with us as she delivered the car (and we signed and paid for it!). Now after the sale she continues to be available to us as we have had a few questions. Our experience with Van Bortel Ford is the best car purchase experience we have had. Thank you Christin for making it so great!

Just took my Town Car in for a NYS inspection and a set of new tires I ordered from the parts department the day before. The price for the same work done 2 1/2 yearrs before at a different place was very close. Major difference was the alignment was done right the first time here.What I can't do at home thesrs guys are going to do from now on. Great team!

From start to finish, the Van Bortel team demonstrated prompt and courteous customer service. The waiting area was immaculate, and I appreciated the well-equipped, clean coffee area very much.

I went to VanBortel because i had bought my last vehicle there and had such a positive experience. The sales rep I was working with over email and phone was out sick the day I came in for a test drive and Jake was happy to help. He went over all my options for payment and helped me understand how leading was the right option for me. I left Friday and told him I needed time to think about it. He never made me feel pressured to make a decision at all. I had made the decision the next morning to lease a 2015 Ford Escape. I have had such an amazing experience and I love my new car! Kiddos to Kitty, Jake and the entire team at VanBortle for being such an amazing dealership. My sister who was with me at the time of my test drive was so impressed with how comfortable it was and how there was no pressure to buy. I will continue to tell all my family and friends to go to VanBortle!!!

The people are great, hard working, and focused on your needs. I recommend VanBortel a lot. I think it is a professional experience when working with them. They were very busy the morning my wife took the car in for service. It was our first visit. So a bit of confusion was the only thing that occurred that was not positive, but everything else made up for it and more. Thank you!

I recently went it to have my F150 serviced. The consultant told me a price but when the final bill was printed, it was $70.00 higher than the price he had told me. The consultant looked at the bill and compared it to the price he had scribbled down earlier. Without hesitation, he changed the bill to the lower price. He explained he had forgotten to add one of the charges to the initial price but that it was his mistake and that they stick by their quotes.

I continue to be so impressed with the level of customer service which is provided by the team at Van Bortal Ford. Not only did Rocco explain to me following the appt a couple of things to keep an eye on, he let me know that if it was something they felt needed to be addressed and taken care of immediately they would, but as he said "We are not going to let you drive away in a vehicle that we know there is an issue with and thus not safe, but this is not the case". He further stated at my next routine service appt they would look to see if the item needed to be replaced then. Also while I was there another customer was waiting for their vehicle and the service was taking longer than anticipated, knowing the time constraints that the customer was under; the Service Manager came out and not only apologized, but had set him up with a loaner so that he could get to practice that he was scheduled to run. As the Manager said, we want to make sure you car is serviced properly, but also don't want you to miss the practice either. Again, it simply goes to speak to the level of customer services and care which is shown by the team at Van Bortal Ford.

I went to Van Bortel Ford to look at the 2016 Ford Escape which was one of the vehicles on my short list to lease. The sales staff was very accommodating and genuine without being oppressive. My representative took the time to show me the AWD Ford Fusion SE and inform me of very advantageous leasing terms. I liked the car and the packages that were included so I ordered it. The dealership bought my used car and gave me a fair price for it. Picking up the car was quick and painless. I had a few problems adjusting to the My Touch system but they brought right in to go over it and we were able to correct the problems I was having within thirty minutes. So far it has worked flawlessly and I am enjoying the car when I can get it away from my wife.

I have been a customer since Van Bortel Ford opened, for service on my 2006 Ford Focus. Service was always excellent, and I even purchased a 5 year end-to-end extended warranty. Recently my 2006 Focus was totaled. I shopped elsewhere and then purchased a 2014 Focus Hatchback from Van Bortel. I received an excellent deal from Claxton, and from the financial manager. I got a 7 year extended warranty at a great price. I was also given a lengthy tour of all the manual and electronic features by another employee. I love my new Focus and I do recommend Van Bortel to everyone.

I had another great experience purchasing a new Ford from Matt German at Van Bortel! This is actually my second purchase this year. In January I purchased a 2015 Fiesta SE. I loved everything about that car -except - it just wasn't quite large enough. I had it in for service last week and while there I spoke to Matt to see how bad I'd get beaten-up if I traded it in on a new Focus (I had put over 22k miles on the Fiesta in 8 months but it was in excellent condition). Matt worked a great deal for that kept my payments the same and now I have the car I truly love!Thanks Matt.

They were gracious enough to hold the car while I traveled from Albany to Rochester to buy the car. Along with excellent service, Van Bortel Ford's pricing policy resulted in a great price without the hassle and stress of bargaining. As a result of my experiences, I have already recommended Van Bortel Ford to several friends and family.

Ford Taurus 2013 15,000 mile service. I received a reminder from the service department in a timely manner. Transportation to my home was provided when I dropped off my car in a very timely manner. The only issue I continue to have is with my SYNC and I-Phone. The system was rebooted and at this point is working fairly well. I still have times where it takes several minutes (and occasionally the phone does not connect with the sync) for the phone to connect but to this point the other features of the sync system are working fine.

Purchased a 2014 used explorer in Dec 2014, the process was simple, the salesman explained everything clearly and helped to run numbers in order to stay within my budget. Just yesterday I had to bring my vehicle in to be serviced. I am just 4K miles outside my bumper to bumper warranty and my compressor and belt died. Shayleen (sorry if I butchered the spelling of her name) in service was wonderful! She was friendly and understanding from "hello". She recognized my anxiety over the price of the repair (I've been on short term disability from work for 7 wks due to unexpected surgery and my pay has been less than 50% of my normal income). She, without hesitation, used the Goodwill warranty to help lower the cost to something I could handle. She was also going to get me a loaner car since she was sure my car wouldn't be looked at that day, said she'd call later and let me know when one came in. Instead of calling to tell me a loaner came in, she told me the vehicle was looked at already and could be ready for pick up in the evening! I wish she was still there when I picked it up, I would have liked to thank her in person. Another person worth mentioning is your shuttle driver, Ray. Also very friendly. He even called me when he heard my car would be ready and offered to pick my daughter and me up to save my mother the trip! Wonderful service from everyone and kudos to your mechanics for getting my vehicle up on the lift and done the same day! Not bad for a Monday!

You guys did a great job with the items that we set up to have looked at/done (inspection, tire rotation, and traction control code). You diagnosed the issue with the traction control, and you fixed all items necessary for the inspection to pass.I appreciate the fact that you found bad e-brake cables and nearly dead back brake pads. I don't drive that car much (wifey's car), and she usually doesn't tell me when something isn't right with the car until it is really really bad.

I purchased a 2015 F-150 XLT 4x4 Sport. I feel it took longer than expected to get my truck. It took me a week and a half. And that was with me calling. After my first salesman left your company I felt know one cared about my sale anymore. Plus I wanted to go with a bank that had a lower APR than the one I ended up being put with. Which costs me more money. I was also promised a gift card for my aggravation but never received anything. Plus I was told I would get a free loaner if I ever had service performed on my truck. Now I'm not sure if that's true or not. Jeff

I have been having trouble with one tire for 2 months. It has been loosing air about every two weeks and sets off the sensor. Each time I have taken it to Ford I was told that there is nothing wrong. Wrong answer! When the operator came back with the same answer at your dealership, the lady at the service desk had him take it back in and pull the tire to check the seal. So far so good and she is my new hero!! If I have any more problems you can believe that I will be back! Thank you!!

The last time my car was in for the green clutch replacement the mechanic didn't torque down the bolts enough. The car had terrible engine vibration and after bringing it back for 10 days, they thought it was fixed and after 3 days the engine light came on again, they had it another 4 days. So far it seems ok after 3 new green clutches.I am not happy with the car because its in the shop more than driven and only has 46,000 on it. I have always been happy with the sales department & Kitty herself with helping me get a good deal on my car. The service department I have had both good and bad experiences.I would love to be able to work a deal and trade my car in, but have considered switching makes after the issues with my focus.

I purchased a 2016 Ford Explorer Platinum from Kitty van Bortel Ford because Kitty is notorious for standing behind her vehicles and she is a fantastic supporter of our local nonprofit breast cancer organization. I worked with Christin Lanzalaco, an extraordinary young woman... the most sensitive, ethical person I have EVER worked with for a new car purchase. This is my eighth new car purchase in my personal "driving life". This vehicle is my personal first from Van Bortel Ford (my husband has purchased vehicles there) and, as far as I'm concerned, Kitty is deserving of her outstanding reputation. She has a loyal fan in me, as does Christin. I am so happy with the entire experience! Also the guy, Mark, who oriented me to my new vehicle was AWESOME.

I was disappointed that I needed new brakes and rotors when I have been asking at at my last 2-3 service visits to check the brakes. I would have hoped that new brake pads earlier would have prevented the need for new rotors.

I came in for my NYS inspection. The staff got me right in, there was one suggestion made for keeping my car running at peak performance which I had not thought of over the past two years - changing my air filter, so that was taken care of. And as always the entire staff, from the people who worked with me to the guy I passed in the parking lot were genuinely friendly, had a smile on their face, and were sincerely looking to meet my needs for the visit.

Everyone was extremely accommodating to us when purchasing our Flex! We came in and went through every single option that was available, and I never felt rushed or like I was inconveniencing them. All the numbers can confuse me, and they went through all the different prices and additions step by step multiple times, and they were so understanding. Even when the car came in, Christin Morse made time to squeeze us in to pick up the car, because she knew how excited we were to get it! Every step was carefully done and discussed and made simple. There was no pressure, to time constraints. It was an extremely pleasant experience from start to finish!

I had called to speak w/a sales person and was connected w/Steve Miller. I expained what I was looking for and wanted to set up a time to come in and test drive the Ford Edge. I explained that I did not want to be car poor and I would not be put under any pressure in purchasing a car. When I met w/Steve he was great. He set me up to test drive the edge. Beautiful car. Loved it. Steve worked w/me on getting me a car that I would be comfortable w/my payments. In a whole everything and everyone I had to deal with did a great job. I will due future business w/VanBortel and I will recommend future business to Steve and VanBortel. I respect Kitty for creating a great business in a mans industry.

BEST BUYING EXPERIENCE EVER! Everyone I dealt with was nicer and more helpful than the previous person. Most of all, Allen Hawkins, is the reason I will be coming back for future business. His knowledge, care and effort were much more than I could have hoped for. I felt like he actually wanted to get me the car I wanted...which is not the case at other dealers (I know from experience). The vehicle itself is amazing and I never want to stop driving it.

This was the 2nd car we have purchased from Van Bortel, and both times the process could not have been easier. I do not enjoy the car buying experience, but Claxton (our salesmen both times) was a dream to work with. Very patient, and accommodating - even when we showed up without an appointment. Every Van Bortel associate we encountered through the buying process was kind, and easy to work with. I have zero complaints. We recommended Van Bortel to my mother in law, who also purchased a used car from this dealership as well. My husband and I went back and forth between leasing a new 2016 escape, or buying one a few years old. After seeing the numbers laid out, ultimately we decided to lease, and could not be happier. We will continue to do business with Van Bortel for as long as we are in the Rochester area. Thank you for making the traditionally awful car buying experience, very simple and easy!

I have mixed emotions about VanBortel service. I would be less critical had the lug nuts not been damaged by an impact wrench on my previous visit. I will need to buy some new ones. A little more care would have been appreciated. During this visit, the windshield was not cleaned before new inspection and registration stickers were applied. They were put where I wanted them and that was appreciated. I was told I could get a ride home when I scheduled the appointment. The shuttle was not available, but fortunately my wife was available and came to get me.

Next day I called to tell them car was there......they knew. I got call back with an update. In the end it was the battery, covered by warranty. THANK YOU FOR SUCH GREAT SERVICE AS ALWAYS. I could not believe my car would not start, it is not three years old. BUT VANBORTEL SERVICE FOUND THE PROBLEM AND GOT ME BACK ON THE ROAD........GREAT SERVICE.

There was a problem with my car. It is a Ford Focus 2013 which I really like. Unfortunately the clutch sucks in this model (I heard 2012 and 2013 Focus models have all this problem). The clutch was replace and it is running perfect for now. It is the second time I bring my car to repair this issue. It seems like this time you guys did a great job. I had an excellent service after all.

We were looking for a decent product to hold us over until we can afford purchase an around town electric vehicle. There were no available Focus Electric cars, so we moved to the C-Max Energi cars. So far we are impressed with the amount of electric miles we are able to use. so far around time I'd say we use 20 electric miles for every 10 Gas miles. With local trips to a neighboring city being the only exception. The C-Max is a great car and VanBortal did a great job getting it for me.

The customer service has been excellent, but I have experienced some issues with my new car since it was purchased mid-July 2015. On one occassion, it would not start. The transmission was also studdering, so I took it to the dealership. They were unable to find an issue surrounding the vehicle starting. They fixed the clutch to address the studdering issue. I also had to bring it back again because the passenger side window would detach when the door was closed. These experiences have impacted my experience with the car. The reason I bought a new car was because my old car was experiencing numerous issues and frequent trips to the mechanic. I am now experiencing the same thing with my new car. Every time I bring my car in though, the customer service has been wonderful and staff are responsive.

Even though this was my first ever car purchase, I could not believe how seamless and easy it was to purchase my car! I came in looking to buy a new 2015 Ford Focus and immediately I was paired with Charles. He was able to directly guide me to the car I was searching for and after a test drive I was ready to sign the papers to purchase it. The entire time Charles was inviting and friendly and it almost had the feel that by the end of the car purchase I knew him personally. When it came to trading in my van, I was prepared to have to negotiate a trade in price, however, I was offered more than I was expecting to get for it and I was super excited! The car is amazing and thanks to Charles and the Ford company I was able to get the car I wanted. Thank you so much for the incredible customer service and the ease of the car purchase.

When I was notified of the 2nd, the service dept. said they could do both at the one appt.I was asked when i would like to pick up the vehicle (was dropping off and leaving). I exp'd I would like it back by 2pm. I think i received the call it was ready at 8a.m.That's service.

Jake McClelland was recommended to me by a neighbor who loved her Van Bortle experience. I was not disappointed. I had just spent 4 long hours at another dealership trying to get facts and figures on an Escape. I was exhausted and totally frustrated with the salesperson. After spending an hour with Jake, I had taken a test drive and went home with facts, figures and the pros and cons of leasing vs. buying. We discussed the many options available and Jake helped me sort through them and figure out what was best for me. I returned today and was greeted warmly and professionally. I will pick up my 2016 Escape in a few days. I can't say enough wonderful things about the total Van Bortle experience. I never had such a good time spending money !!!!! Do yourself a favor and visit them....You won't be disappointed......I promise !!!!!

I understand that my repair, while important to me, was one of many to you. I was given a realistic timeline regarding the repairs and provided a loaner through Enterprise that met me needs for the nine days my car was in your shop. My only disappointment was the explanation that the excessive vibration that I had been experiencing during slow acceleration was "normal" for Focus and Fiestas. The redesigned clutch that was installed as part of the repair resolved the vibration issue.

Once again anything and everything anyone could possibly expect from a service visit was FAR exceeded from expectations, let alone actuality! This dealership represents the epitome of perfection to the highest possible degree of excellence! I always enjoy having to come in for service and sometime just for conversation. Recently we were in the dealership to order a new car. AGAIN ans AGAIN the same experiences with Steve Miller. We were greeted by Maureen who was walking around to make sure things were right and nobody was in need of anything. Again I will say - WHY CAN't you sell Lincoln automobiles. This is THE dealership that deserves to sell and service this standard of excellence!

We absolutely love the Ford Edge. It rides great, looks great and is perfect. We brought it in for it's first oil change and tire rotation. We were able to get a loaner (which was a great car). This is a great service--especially in the work environment we face today.Again a huge thank you to everyone involved. (I forgot to mention the tech guy and financial representative).

After my first car, a 2004 Chrystler Sebring broke down for its final time, I decided to get a new car and Van Bortel was the first and only place I went. I was very pleased with the service I got, except that the person helping me was also helping 4 other people. I visited Ford 3 times before making my decision on which car I wanted, and each time I was there for at least an hour, and about 45 minutes of that was waiting for someone to help me. I was impressed with the sincerity of the employees after I disclosed I was not thrilled with the wait period. I would recommend Van Bortel Ford to my friends and family

The service advisor was very thorough explaining the issues with the automobile and detailed the costs for service prior to working on the vehicle. The work was done quickly and everything seems to be good with the car.

This was my first time in purchasing/owning a pickup truck having chosen the 2015 Ford F-150. This was my first experience in buying from Van Bortel. I have always heard about the "no negotiation, everyone pays one price" but never truly believe in it until now. The truck is awesome and the buying experience has been surprising pleasant and civil, not like my previous 7 different dealer purchases. I have already made recommendations to family and friends and expect to return for future vehicle purchases.

When I called to make an appointment for an inspection, I was told that they were booking appointments for a week out, but could try the fast lane. I decided to try the fast lane fully expecting the experience to not literally be fast. Surprisingly, I was out the door in 45 minutes!

2013 Ford Edge had a rear back up camera problem. Vehicle was under warranty and was fixed at no cost to me. Works great now. Vehicle was left overnight so parts could be delivered. I used the courtesy shuttle which was very convenient. Service personnel checked and verified that there were no recalls on my vehicle. All service personnel were great including the shuttle driver. I especially liked the electronic receipt that was emailed to me!

Your service is excellent The staff is outstanding and they go over and above expectations to assist us .....your customer. Quick Lane is super convenient for folks that have jampacked schedule .It is mainly because of your Ford service staff that we have purchased two vehicles from Van Bortel Dealerships over the past few months. We have recommended to friends relatives and acquaintances any of the Vandora dealerships and will continue to do so It is obvious to us that your customer service philosophies go all away to the top of your company

The problem was not the service but the poor quality of original tires Ford installed on the car. The tires had to be replaced after 16,000 miles. One of the tires was 'chaffed' causing it to sound like a snow tire. Tread wear was also low on the other tires. This was a Fusion Titanium leased in 2013.

My father brought my 2011 Ford Escape in for a check-up as I am about to take a long car trip. The staff were beyond helpful. There were some shock absorbers (or related) needed that would take 4 days to come in, but the parts manager was able to find aftermarket ones. They were able to get my repair approved by my warranty, even though the person had to stay on the phone for about 15 minutes. Needless to say, I cannot thank the staff enough for the work done! Everything was perfect! I appreciate the fact that the repair was done in one day, so that I didn't have to try to find a time to come back during an unusually busy week. Thank you so much! Your dealership has excellent staff, service, and salespeople. A great combination!

We bought a 2015 Explorer EXT last Sept. We were not happy with it since it was difficult getting in and out, did not have memory seat, had cloth seats which were hard to slide on. I called our salesman, Matt German, when we returned from our winter in North Carolina. He had us come up and look at other cars on the lot. (My husband has alzheimers and I do all the driving.) That first day we settled on the last 2014 Edge that they had on the lot. It was a limited with all the features we wanted and it was in our favorite red color. We picked it up two days later. We have been very happy with it so far (only have 200 miles on it.) And were extremely happy with the service Matt provided.

Let me begin by telling you that my salesperson Simo was excellent. His outgoing personality, his knowledge of the vehicles and his attention to detail throughout the experience was refreshing. Simo was great and went above and beyond what was expected. He alone made the buying experience delightful. In fact, all involved with the transaction were great; from the sales manager, the finance manager and even the service group did all they could to make me feel like I was the most important customer in the showroom that day.I was also impressed that Kitty Van Bortel makes herself available to her customers by providing her direct contact info. I guess this is easy to do if you have a great support staff that conducts business as professional as they do.The quality and condition of the 2010 S-Crew Lariat I purchased is superb. I have been a long-time loyal ford customer and this was the best buying experiences ever. I will definitely buy here with Simo again.Regards,

We dealt with Claxton Wells from Van Bortel ford purchasing a 2015 Ford Edge. Claxton was great to work with. Very low pressure and he worked vary hard to get us exactly what we wanted and worked just as hard to get the vehicle at a price we wanted to pay. Claxton spent a lot of time with us and really cared about what we wanted at a price we wanted. We wound up ordering a vehicle with the options we wanted on it. Our experience was great. At the time of delivery, Matt German spent almost 2 hours with us going over all the features of the vehicle, which were many, and setting up all of the technical / sync options. I haven't had a dealer pay this much attention to detail in a long time. (I have purchased many vehicles over the years) They also treated us very fairly on our trade vehicle.

Working with Matt German on the purchase of my 2014 Transit Connect-Titanium was an absolute pleasure and enjoyable experience. Unlike my past dealings with car salesmen, man was zero pressure, courteous, knowledgeable, friendly and very eager to answer all my questions. His willingness to promptly return phone calls and e-mails really demonstrated his desire to work with me and ensure my questions and concerns were addressed. I feel Matt was very instrumental in my deciding to purchase the vehicle from Van Bortel Ford. Matt was also very fair with me concerning the trade-in of my 2006 F-150 as well as locating additional discounts I was entitled to with Ford. I very much like the arrangement that Van Bortel has with Ziebart as I would have done that anyway without their assistance but it was so much easier and cheaper using Van Bortel as my liason with Ziebart.. Matt was instrumental in my going with the additional extended warranty plan as he was fully capable of explaining the plans benefits. Brandon Wood was also a very valuable resource in displaying the various plan options and associated pricing to me and fielding any questions I had. In conclusion, I am 200% satisfied with my car buying experience with Van Bortel due in large to the interfaces I had with Matt and Brandon. Not to mention I got a great new vehicle!! Next stop: Van Bortel's Service Dept. I have been a loyal Henderson Ford customer for the past 15 years but am willing to see how Van Bortel compares in terms of service.THANKS FOR A GREAT CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE AND PRICE!Gregg Joss2 Bainbridge LaneWebster, NY 14580585-857-4385

I had been experiencing problems with my clutch on my 2006 Mustang. In calling the dealership I usually got to, they were not able to get me in til beginning of June. So I had a friend say call Van Bortel and see what they can do. Immediately called, and without hesitation they were able to set-up an appointment for me that same week. Upon arriving to their Ford Dealership on Marsh Road, I was greeted by members of their staff at 6:30am with a "good morning, how can we help you today". Doug Hicks was assigned to me, and immediately asked one of the Service Tech (Steve R.) to take a look at my car to see what he thought, and before I could meet Steve at my car; he had gotten out confirmed it was the clutch, and explained to me (in language that I would easily understand) what the issue was, and what needed to be done. As this is my only vehicle, I let Doug know that I would need a loaner car if the clutch could not be replaced that same day. Throughout the morning Doug called to keep me posted, and when he called to confirm the cost, parts, etc. -- he let me know that one of the parts which was indicated to be in stock was not, but was being ordered, and would be in the next day. He then said, I've already lined up a loaner car for me through a Rental Car Company, and simply need to know what time I could pick up the rental car. Doug let me know what all of the paperwork for the loaner car was done, he could confirm the pick up time for me, and that I was all set. I have never experienced a level of customer service like this before. Very impressedI truly have to say, Doug and Steve throughout the process explained everything to me, and what I could expect. A stressful experienced was truly made less stressful by Doug, Steve, and the Service Dept Team; even Jeff who brought me to work that morning. I would highly recommended Van Bortel Ford to anyone who has a Ford vehicle and is looking for quality service, and a level of customer service that cannot be matched. Matter of fact, I now will be bringing my vehicle to Van Bortel for any and all service needs. You have made a customer for life!!!!

I had such a good experience five years ago, I returned for my next purchase. Super respectful sales people who DO NOT pressure you in any way. Totally amazed at the amount of time they are willing to take with the customer to answer questions and discuss vehicle options.Purchase process was super smooth and stress free-loved that there wasn't any "haggling" involved. I had researched what I was trading and buying-the prices for each were extremely competitive. The entire staff made sure I was comfortable with the purchase and followed up with me a few days layer to make sure all was well.No question about it-I will buy from Van Bortel again and highly encourage others to do so as well!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience with a recent Ford Fusion purchase courtesy of Charles Sarratori and the helpful staff at Van Bortel Ford. From the initial test drive through to delivery, Charlie took the time to answer our questions and offer suggestions in a truly no pressure fashion. I took the time to solicit quotes from several area Ford dealers, and beyond the fact that Charlie went above-and-beyond in getting us to a number we were comfortable with, I really appreciated his being upfront with us about all costs and being true to his word throughout the entire process. As we have a young child, cutting the total amount of time at the dealership was very important, and in this Van Bortel really excelled. On delivery day, we were in and out the door with all paperwork signed and keys in hand within 1 hour. Simply put, this was the best car buying experience weve ever had, and I wholeheartedly recommend Charles and the team at Van Bortel for your Ford needs.

Once again, Van Bortel exceeded my expectations. I stopped there because my windshield wiper fluid sprayers were not working properly. I didn't have an appointment but drove into the Quick Lane. I was greeted by Kelly who said they would be glad to look at it. While my car was being looked at, she noticed my NYS inspection was due this month and asked if I would like them to do that as well. I ended up being there for only about 40 minutes, my washers were fixed and my car inspected. Try and do THAT at another dealer -- I don't think soThe staff at Van Bortel is awesome and I would recommend them to anyone! Thank you Ms. Van Bortel for a great experience.

Rebecca and Guy exceeded my expectations this week.While technically the "60000 mile" tires I had were not yet worn out (with 1-3/32 of tread to go), there were only 38,000 miles on them and winter is looming.I was given a pro-rated discount a new set of tires. Because the original brand was on backorder, I was given the option to buy a different brand. On top of that, they matched the competitive price for the different brand.It's the great customer service that keeps us coming back (from Chili).

I just purchased a vehicle through Van Bortel Ford and I was very impressed. Everything was organized and done very professionally. I came from New Jersey to pick a car up. When I got there the truck was parked right out front all prepared along with all the paperwork. I was in and out within 10 minutes. They also pushed to get the rate I needed to meet my needs. Very pleased.

We have purchased 2 vehicles in the past and from our 1st purchase we knew that we needed to look no further for a dealership we could trust. We are anxiously awaiting our 3rd purchase, a new F350 which our salesman Paul Bowers helped us build. We will be purchasing a truck camper in the near future and Paul was very knowledgeable about the "extras" that we needed for a safe truck/camper package. The same day we were making our truck purchase we also asked if the service department could do a LOF on our 2009 Fusion (we were overdue). They happily squeezed us in and asked us if we wanted to have them replace a tail light bulb (we said yes). We LOVE Van Bortel Ford, Paul Bowers and the Service Department!

My car decided to die one day after work. Being a single mom with no one here in NY to help I remembered my friend saying what great work Van Bortel did. So I had my car towed there and prayed for the best. I found Rebecca and Andrew helpful, supportive and professional when I was stressed and with no way home. I was given a loaner for the long time my car was being worked on. When I came to pick it up the wonderful people in the cashiers office helped me with the payment and even found my lost jacket. Ryan helped me understand the bill and warranty. Compassion, support and professionalism. Great team, great job and you have a new customer for life!! Thank you for taking great care of me when you could have taken advantage instead. Integrity!! WOW!

I have come to expect lackluster customer service or perhaps one person who acts like they are glad I stopped by. But at your dealership, I was shocked that every single person I encountered was over-the-top pleasant, friendly, and helpful, especially Brandon McKenzie who went out of his way to help me. I watched as the workers interacted with customers and I watched as they interacted with one another. I was impressed by the level of respect they showed one another. Van Bortel Ford is a special place and I will be sure to return for any automotive needs I may have.

Van Bortel Ford is terrific. I ordered my F150 from the location on Marsh Rd. and have had nothing but good things to say. I still go there for all my service, they are trustworthy and when they can help you they will. The wait is never too long and if requested they will provide you with a rental car as yours is being repaired. I cant speak more highly about this office and I will certainly be returning there for my next vehicle.

I bought a used Ford from them that, a week later, I decided was not the one for us. Absolutely nothing wrong with the car, just decided that we didn't care for it. Took it back to them and while they were not overjoyed to take it back (who would be?), they certainly did NOT give me any hassle about returning it. The salesman who sold it to me asked me a few questions about why I was returning it (reasonable questions; was not grilling me) and based upon my answers said that they had gotten another used car (not a Ford) in two days ago that I might like better. I did and they swapped it. Oh and they also refunded the extended Ford warranty I purchased from them. Now, the second car cost more than the first (still a reasonable price for it) but they had already agreed to take the first one back and started processing the paperwork before I decided to buy the second one. BTW, the trade-in valuation was also higher than that of the three other dealers that I visited initially. I would absolutely buy another car from Kitty. Kudos to her and her people.

Worst new car buying experience ever, in my life. The new vehicle had more mileage than it should. Also, all the manufacturer's stickers, and new plastics had been removed (as if it was being driven & this was a special order/limited production vehicle). Staff was very uncooperative and disrespectful. Traveled over 5 hours to this dealership, and was met by rude, unhelpful staff. Even told us not to come get the vehicle the next day (driving another 5 hrs to fix some paperwork THEY mis-communicated about!) because 'They will not stay a minute late' (in case I was late). We ended up walking away from this purchase due to the treatment we received. Would not wish my worst enemy to deal with this dealer! Just because they sell vehicles at invoice, does not give them the right to accuse hard working people of identity theft, due to their own internal errors.

It was time for my son to buy a new truck and he had a few things that he really wanted: newer, 4x4, black, a regular cab that the seat can actually recline and an MP3/usb port for his ipod/phone and such. My job, as usual, is to be the facilitator and negotiator. It is what it is with many car dealerships and most buyers dread the thought of the ordeal they'll go through buying a new car. My son didn't want to get taken advantage of and of course neither did I want to see that.Anyway, we did our homework and found several trucks that fit the bill. His range was 25k and finding low mileage recent trucks in nice shape at that price is tough. We assumed that we couldn't get new since the price points were near 40k. We spent alot of time and gas tracking down trucks after we spent hours online.We ended up at Van Bortel on Marsh Rd in Fairport (East Rochester) and worked with Matt German who was their internet guy. I've purchased 3 other vehicles from this location previously under different ownership, but there was always a professionalism present. This was no exception.Upon entering, a salesman approached us and asked if were being helped and all I said was that I talked to the internet guy and he went and got him, unlike another dealership where the rep just said "He's not here, but he'd just turn you over to me anyway." Right away we knew to watch out at that place. My point is that right off the bat the salesman (Clayton) showed us that there was HONOR and honesty at the Van Bortel dealership.The sales staff all wore suits and ties and acted in the kind of manner that I EXPECT when I'm spending alot of money. Suits and ties don't necessarily make for a great experience, but here it seemed as if it was the way it was supposed to be. In fact we were at another dealership that trashed Van Bortel for wearing ties. Really.Matt was as professional as it gets, extremely knowledgeable and friendly, answering every question and making us feel like he, as well as the dealership, was actually GLAD we were there to give them a chance to sell us a truck. When's the last time you were at a store and you knew they were actually glad you were there? Think about that for a minute.So, anyway, Matt found several rebates for us, sold us the truck at 300.00 under invoice, took care of financing, didn't get flustered with tough questions, didn't push us for things we didn't want, and the bottom line was he put my son in a BRAND NEW F-150 4X4 STX for the same price as some 3 year old trucks we had seen with 40,000 miles on them.Every single facet of our "buying experience" was attended to, every question answered and every expectation met or exceeded. This is EXACTLY how car buying is supposed to be and frankly what I expected from the get-go. This is NOT what we experienced anywhere else.

We went to this dealer due to all of the great reviews. Apparently we hit a dud sales person. We ended up ordering. We got the DORA (Dealer Order Receipt Acknowledgement) indicating 8-10 week production. Our vehicle ended up taking 24 weeks. After 12 weeks with no contact from Van Bortel, we reached out to them. They "forgot" to tell us that there was going to be a delay. Communication from sales was HORRIBLE!!!. No returned email, no return phone calls. Only way to talk to sales person is to go in there. Appears to be "hiding" from an uncomfortable situation. Now, I understand the delay is not their fault, but you could at least let your customer know that the order is delayed, and utilize some very basic customer service skills, such as returning phone calls, returning emails, doing what you say you will do. In short, I will never ever ever buy from this dealer again. I will try to dissuade anyone I know from purchasing from this dealer. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE experience. Worst customer service ever.

Purchased 2013 Ford C-Max from Van Bortel two weeks ago; my wife and I were very well taken care of by salesperson George Lunney, who met and anticipated our every need. I went to a second dealer alone, did a test drive & got a price that was about $2K higher, was treated OK but nothing like the personal attention at Van Bortel which allowed things to be comfortably done in our own time scheme, not that of the salesperson. A+ rating.

My first buying experience with Van Bortel Ford was like no other. Before going to the dealership my phone conversations with them were polite and imformative. When I arrived at the dealership to look at my new car I was greeted by friendly sales people who offered me a beverage and a seat while waiting a few minutes for my sales rep. Matt German. I had never been treated like this at a dealership before, what a pleasant surprise. Matt German , a nice young man and extremely knowledgeable explained everything and took care of my needs . If anyone is buying a vehicle, Van Bortel is the place to go. There is no hassle over price and everything is easy. My new car has only five hundred miles on it and I can't wait to go to the service dept. for my first oil change. Jerry

Definitely the best buying experience I have ever had. I never felt pressured by any of the staff. The dealership was spotless. The service I have recieved since buying has been above and beyond my expectations. Everyone is always so inviting...I forget that I'm getting an oil change. You wouldn't believe you are in a service area! My sister in law also bought from them, and has had the same wonderful experience. I cannot imagine anyone ever being disappointed, and I'm sure if they are, for any reason, the staff will take care of them immediately. Thank you all for turning an otherwise painful experience into such a pleassant one!

I spoke with Bob Larabee from Van Bortel about my service experience. He offered me an apology and reassured me that if any of his staff did that on purpose that they would no longer have a job. It is most likely a case of accidental disconnection. They made it right by reimbursing me for the unnecessary trip to my regular mechanic. Thanks for the great service, Bob. I appreciate it!

Parked in my garage, my car wouldn't start. Triple A came. Towed to Fairport Ford on April 2, 2011. I rode in the tow truck. The service department was full up but Guy Kalpin took a look at the car. He determined it wasn't anything major. So, instead of having me hitch a ride home (it was late on Saturday: they were open til 8pm) they did their best to work me in. About 1 1/2 hours later, I was on my way; a very happy senior woman.Today I looked up Fairport Ford's telephone number online and came across some very negative reviews which were submitted when the company was owned by Mr. Cortese. I want those who read the negative reviews to know that Fairport Ford has been taken over by Kitty VanBortel. I bought my Ford 500 from Cortese, so I feel very qualified to say there has been a huge change in the way the new management team's customer care is handled.
