Worked with Angel Martinez to help my wife with a car deal for a 2025 Big Bend Ford Bronco Sport & he was a pleasure to work with. Very professional and always comes through. He stayed with us through the whole car buying process, working overtime to secure us with the best outcome in our deal. There’s no one else I’d want to go with because I know I’m in good hands with Angel. Been to other dealerships and hands down, he and his team have been some of the best people to work with. Not pushy and makes things happen. Ken Grody in Carlsbad is my favorite dealership, appreciate their hard work and commitment to caring for their customers. I recommend coming here for your car needs.

I just bought my 2025 Ford Bronco Sasquatch, and I am absolutely over the moon with both my new Bronco and my experience at Ken Grody Ford! My salesman, Coleman, was an absolute pleasure to work with — the kind of salesperson everyone hopes to find. He was friendly, professional, attentive, and incredibly patient, taking time to make sure I understood every detail of my purchase. Coleman went above and beyond helping me get completely set up with FordPass, walking me through features, settings, and making sure I drove away feeling confident and cared for. What stood out most was how genuine he was. You can tell Coleman truly cares about his customers — he wasn’t just trying to make a sale; he was building a relationship. His positive attitude, easygoing personality, and clear communication made the whole process smooth and even fun! On top of that, I was extremely happy with the price and overall value I received on my Bronco. The team at Ken Grody Ford was fair, transparent, and respectful of my time from start to finish. Now I’m cruising in my Bronco Sasquatch — an off-road beast that exceeds every expectation — and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Coleman and Ken Grody Ford, for delivering an experience that was honest, enjoyable, and truly five-star worthy!

I had a great experience purchasing a used 2004 Honda Element EX at Ken Grody Ford Carlsbad. Working with Coleman, the lead salesperson, was a breeze. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and totally upfront about the details of the car. The entire staff made sure everything went smoothly and efficiently from start to finish. I left the dealership really happy with my purchase and the customer service I received. The only downside was the AC does not appear to work correctly in the car, which was hard to tell when we looked at it because it was a cooler day. But otherwise a great experience purchasing and Coleman was fantastic and assisted us without any pressure. The finance guy not so much (didn't really appreciate him telling me I didn't want a used car and asking if I had been shown other vehicles - I drove 4 hours to look at this specific car, and was very happily purchasing it).

Spent the day at Ken Grody Ford where I met Kevin G and he showed me a bunch of really great options for a truck with highly capable towing capacity. I had been needing to upgrade my old 2017 F-150 to something newer and with more power for utility and he insisted I test drive the dually diesel F-450 that was sitting on the display ramp out in front of the dealership! I really loved the ride! Before you know it Kevin was making me a deal I could not pass up! He was very accommodating and cooperative and it was such a pleasure to be working with him and spending the time with him to find exactly what I needed and wanted out of a vehicle. I drove off the lot in my beautiful new truck feeling confident and elated about my purchase! To be frank, as a woman; I usually have a disdain for dealing with car salesmen, but Kevin G is different! He’s a down to earth and a very honest sales professional and I trust to do business with him again in the future for all my FORD needs!

I wanted to take a moment to share my experience with the exceptional salesperson I had the pleasure of working with at Ken Grody Ford in Carlsbad. (Rambo) I originally visited the dealership after speaking with another representative over the phone about a vehicle I found online. However, upon arrival, my initial interaction with a different salesperson was disappointing, and I felt frustrated enough to head back to my car, ready to leave. That’s when another salesman, Rambo, approached me and kindly asked if everything was okay and if he could help in any way. Even though I was upset, his genuine concern and professionalism stood out immediately. He encouraged me to give him a chance to help, apologized for my earlier experience, and reassured me that he would do everything he could to make things right. I decided to stay—and I’m so glad I did. From that moment forward, Rambo provided outstanding customer service. Over the next couple of weeks, he consistently went above and beyond to answer my many questions. He was always responsive, sending photos and videos of different vehicles, and making sure I had all the information I needed to make the right decision. Rambo is kind-hearted, patient, and truly genuine—qualities that are hard to find. If you’re in the market for a Ford, I highly recommend visiting Ken Grody Ford in Carlsbad and asking for Rambo. The dealership has an incredible selection of vehicles—like Disneyland for car shoppers—and Rambo will make sure you find the one that’s perfect for you. His customer service is truly above and beyond. You will not be disappointed! The beautiful Ford Explorer I fell in love with 💙💚🩵

I had a great shopping experience with Ken Grody Ford. I had spent a couple of weeks shopping but it wasn’t until I spoke with Coleman that I felt ready to take the next step and purchase my car. Coleman was very quick at finding the exact model, trim and color that I was looking for. He was very communicative and transparent throughout the whole process and made sure my time was valued. Ryan with financing did an amazing job working with us to finalize the process and truly displayed the vision Ken Grody offers to its customers. I will be recommending Ken Grody to all my friends and family! Thank you Coleman and Ryan for making this a memorable experience!!

Meadow is definitely one of the best out there. I been trying to get out of my old car for so long because of my negative equity but it seemed impossible and the only car I was willing to get into was a Mach e. I tried every ford dealership in San Diego county but never Ken Grody. On September 22 I decided to visit Ken Grody Ford and walked out with a Mach e leased. I'm so happy. Meadow was very nice and she worked with me. I walked in with a negative mindset like "yeah I'm never getting out of this car" and the whole time she had the positive mindset to make it work. I just wanna give a big THANK YOU to Meadow and finance they paid off my other car quickly.

I walked in to look at a used option and Dane was great with showing me the truck and not being pushy. This experience led me back to the dealership to look at 2025 options. I’ll say the experience dealing with Dane, Rocky and Alfonso was great. Alfonso, did a great job of providing me multiple payment options. Finance Manager Tristan was great and very thorough explaining my extended warranty. Overall, very happy with this dealership.

Best dealer new car buying experience ever. Negotiated price online/text. In and out of dealership in under an hour. No high pressure sales from the finance guy. Meadows the sales person knew the product very pleasant. Highly recommend them if you want a great new car buying experience.
