They don't like outsiders, that's for sure. What are the options, Reineke, which is part of a big, multi-dealer conglomerate or what used to be Lima Lincoln-Mercury on Cable ?
Raabe is where he's had the trouble, as have I, but my dad has had nothing but good experiences there...
I chalked mine up to the fact that I didn't buy the car there* which really shouldn't matter but.....
but he's purchased at least 3 Lincolns there in the last decade.
the old Lima Lincoln Mercury on cable is Reineke Nissan now, Reineke also owns the main line Ford Dealer on the other side of Lima,but he's heard nothing but complaints about them from his friends/classmates(many of whom are Ford Retirees) ... no the other dealer he'll take the continental to for warranty work is down in Columbus (he down goes there for work all the time) I forget the particular one... Bob Boyd maybe?
* I bought my mercury used from Allan Nott Honda/Toyota. but, the Nott family also Owns Raabe Ford, Joe Nott manages, works at an does commercials for both dealerships.
the car was serviced before i bought it, including a new battery, which just happened to be a Motorcraft Battery. telling me, that they either got the parts from Raabe, or Raabe did the work on the car...
