Hi guys,
Can anyone here recommend a good Brisbane based Ford service dept? Would prefer south of the CBD but if some can speak highly of any dealer in Brisbane, I will travel. Want a few issues looked at with an XR8 and need someone better than the typical part fitters only that most dealer have. Surly there is some more cluey technicians inside these dealers. Many thanks. (feel free to add the ones I should stay away form) |

I've only used Metro Ford and they've been great. And I didn't even buy my car off them.

Unfortunately I have to agree, there seems to have been a complete staff change there ( Virginia Byrne, same same ) between my 15K service (Awesome) and 30K service (Joke).
Service Mgr came over to me ( whilst I was waiting for a cab after drop off ) and asked " what's the trick to starting this thing ? " errrr ..turn key, push the red button . True story. .......not going back.

I have been a customer of Southside Ford Wooloongabba for years now and always had very good service. On the rare times when they haven't got it right, they have promptly rectified issues with out raising my blood pressure.
