Always make sure u buy a warranty!! Then be prepared to wait 2 months for them to use your warranty to replace the motor that blew 2 days after your purchase and exchange for a different vehicle...which was a year older and 2000.00 more, still had to pay the difference even tho we were not at fault! Lack of customer service, communication and for one salesman out there, the lack of being an adult. I will go elsewhere for oil changes and accessories for my jeep and dodge ram!

Fantastic service! I was home for Thanksgiving and had a headlight out on my truck. I live west of the Twin Cities and the Ford Dealership in MN couldnt get me in till December 20th. I called Watertown Ford, they just told me to swing in, no appointment needed. To me that was service that went above and beyond! Thank you!

They do great work, but oil changes always take a long time. But once in the door it's 30 minutes, getting vehicle in the door takes much longer. But again, they do good work in the oil change lines.

This place is AMAZING, hands down. Our family had the scariest situation happen while we were on our way to Minnesota over memorial weekend, our brakes went out! We had no family or friends in this town and felt lost, but we were definitely treated like family here! They got us taken care of in ample time (considering the situation) and despite no one having a rental vehicle in town because of the busy weekend, they worked with us and we left in a brand new loaner vehicle and were back on the road in no time! Needless to say the vacation started out scary, but ended greatly and they had our vehicle
