What a lot of people dont realise i think is that many Ford dealers and a few others are owned/controlled by a larger group called Adtrans. I personally bought and have my GT serviced at MT Port Adelaide but i wouldnt say they are wonderful. Firstly their dedicated FPV section is a load of bull. I turned up early to pick up my car and it was down with the rest of the regular Fords up on a hoist. Secondly, they damaged my door sill and black plastic near the bottom of the rear door taking out my drivers seat to supposedly fix a fault in the seat material. They never said a word until i found it later. The fix was to paint the plastic and they never repaired the material in the seat fault although it was promised they would get new covers in. I also had the first oil change at 7500 kms. When i got there they had charged me for a full service when i had stated ONLY oil change. Also they had Mobil 1 on the bill when it should have been Castrol Edge. I was assured it was Castrol but who knows? I did end up only paying for oil so that was good. Last, wheel rotation and wheel alignment. Car pulled left after alignment took it back they said tyre wear. Had it done again elsewhere and its perfect. Bear in mind this was a brand new GT bought from them. I admit I know little about cars but when i know more than the so called FPV service manager i think its a problem. However, I still go there simply because i think they are the best on offer as far as dealers are concerned.
