Nothing but professionalism and sincerity while I was here. Travis went above in beyond to make sure that my kids and myself were in a safe and trustworthy vehicle! He had its oil changed and everything looked at before I drove it off the lot and he is currently looking for a replacement knob for the drivers side door lock! 10/10 would recommend every time!!!

We test drove the new Ford Ranger and fell in love with it. There was no pressure to buy it. Irish Brian was very helpful in getting us set up with the transaction and trade. We have found Platte Valley Auto to be the place to find our vehicles. The service department is great too. They also installed the truxedo. Thanks Irish Brian and the Platte Valley Auto Team..

Irish Brian was such a wonderful help! He was so patient and did research finding the right car for me when I was so picky. He went above and beyond and found me the perfect car. He is such a great salesman. Patient and kind, and I will be going to him for any car purchase I make. I will also refer him to anyone I know making a purchase. THANK YOU, IRISH BRIAN!!

It was a great experience. My boyfriend and I were looking for truck as we already have a minivan and needed something else to help transport kiddos around! Eddie helped us find the right pickup truck and he was a man of his word getting the fixes done that needed to be fixed! And Rachel their business manager was AMAZING on getting us approved and talking numbers with us!!! Great place and excellent service

I can’t tell you how lucky I was finding this Ford dealership! Stayed overnight in Kearney and got up to car not starting. My car fob was even dead. Called them up on a Saturday morning and they sent out a mechanic immediately. He was able to determine it was my car fob. Got it up enough to get started. Followed him back to dealership to replace battery. After getting us up and putting in a battery I went to pay and service department said no charge! I can’t tell you how much that meant to a mom with 2 kids with and trying to get home 5 hours away. Best service I’ve ever had hands down!

Travis at Platte Valley Auto was the best salesman I have ever worked with, going above and beyond to get me in a vehicle within my budget. I will purchase all my future vehicles from him and would refer any friends and family in search of a vehicle. Best car buying experience ever!

Review №23

I was driving out to Kearney from Denver to pick up a new puppy for our family. After stoping for gas and getting our new puppy my engine started shaking horribly and eventually stoped running after a few minutes... I was essentially stranded 5hrs from home with a 2month old puppy. I called this dealership for an SOS... the service department was scheduled to close at noon, it was 11:45am! After explaining the situation they told me to come on in and ended up staying open for me until about 2:30pm to help. They diagnosed the problem as bad gas, cleaned out my trucks gas/engine and had me back on the road to surprise the kids with the puppy. Their team was AWESOME and went above and beyond to help me out in a tough spot. They even gave me fresh NE corn to bring home for dinner that night! Cant recommend the service team highly enough - thanks guys!!!

Review №24

Service department is weak link. Staff and management need FORD training. Brought vehicle in for service bulletin, which only took two days. Asked to perform an oil change in at the same time, staff stated no problem. After three days of calling to check on progress and staff unable to return calls, and driving up two afternoons finally gave up and picked up the vehicle at the end three days. I cannot recommend their service.

Review №28

Thanks for taking over three attempts to waste my dad’s time and money when he had to drive to Texas to see me, knowing your lack of fixing anything could pose a danger. Glad we can tow his brand new truck from an hour away so he can see me. Unfortunately, I can’t get someone to tow him from Texas to Kearney. Hope he makes it safe.Also thank you to the manager for calling my dad an a-word because he protested your service without cussing. I wouldn’t risk my life in doing business with plate valley Ford even if my life depended on it, because it would end because of their lack of service.

Scrolling facebook, looked at a nice ram trx, started reading comments about it, im assuming a salesman (joshua benham) was being extremely rude and obscene, granted people are not acting accordingly themselves. I wouldnt ever want to spend a dime at a place that has that kind of customer service. This may not be condoned by Platte Valley auto, if it is shame on you, these are hard times and tensions are high, bad marketing for Platte Valley auto, please correct this situation!

I have finance two cars through them with Irish Bryan. Excellent service excellent customer care. Iris Bryan found my first car that I bought with them. Gave them a list of what I was looking for and he found it for me. Second car/pickup sitting on the lot give me a good deal on it. Excellent place to shop for a car or pickup or SUV.

We have bought 3 cars from Irish Brian and have been pleased with every interaction with him. He is extremely good at listening to what we wanted and needed and pursued that until he found it. He is always there for us after the sale when questions come up regarding the warranty and with help providing a loaner when our cars are in the shop. He will be the one we go to in the future! Tanner in the shop has also been amazing with communication and customer service!

Took F150 in to fix cruise control. They seemed to fix it fine. Went to use it and light panel on steering wheel would not work. Worked fine before I took it in. Called back and dropped off to have them correct it. Wanted to charge another 300 dollars to correct the problem. Dont believe them when they advertise that they fix it right the first time. Just to get the vehicle back they wanted a $75 diagnostic fee. Did get them to waive that. Will never take another vehicle to them again

I used to deal with a different salesman at Platte Valley. I came across Irish after he left and now I wish that salesman would have left sooner. Irish is the best salesman I have meant in any field. He I will work his tail off until you are happy and has became my friend. Integrity should be be his middle name, but I feel that way with the whole company the way they have treated me over the years. Bottom line, look up Irish Brian at Platte Valley and you will never shop anywhere else.

Ginger and I just bought 2 (yes TWO) cars from Scott Hickman at Platte Valley. We told Scott what we were looking for (a used F150 and a used Edge) and he called when he got one in that matched our requests. Scott is not a high pressure saleman, he wants you to get what you are looking for. The sales process went smoothly and we feel like we got a very fair deal.Scott made sure a couple minor issues were taken care of and even gave both vehicles a bath before letting us drive them off the lot.Scott has a been in the Kearney auto sales market for many years and is willing to work with you.Tell him Kurt sent you.

Cory at Platte Valley was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I explained what we were looking for and he found us the perfect vehicle. I also told him we didnt want the circus like experience of the auto malls in the big cities, once we agreed to purchase the vehicle, they had us in and out of there in a matter of minutes. Matt in finance was also a pleasure to deal with, he was knowledgeable and direct. We like to buy local and will come back when its time for another vehicle. Thanks!

Only place to buy your next car. I have bought my last 4 cars with Mark and it is the easiest experience you can have. I live 3 hours away and he makes it so simple to make a deal and then drive the vehicles to me. When I do get to Kearney I stop in and I am treated like family. Mark understands I am busy with my business and takes care of everything. Hard to find someone like Mark who makes sure he knows you on a personal level and keeps a great relationship after the sale and doesn’t forget about you.

Review №88

From start to finish this was by far the easiest and most satisfying car buying experience we’ve ever had. Previously we have gone to Lincoln thinking we could get a better deal, only to find ourselves spending hours and feeling pushed around to finally buy a car. Cory helped us find the perfect used car for our growing family. He was helpful, courteous and we drove away feeling like we had a fair deal and are now loyal to a local dealership we feel took amazing care of us. Matt in finance helped us to finish the paperwork and finance part without any hassles and was so friendly. Definitely a 5 star experience all around. We are so happy with our new car and would recommend Platte Valley Auto to anyone!

If you are looking for a new vehicle check out Platte Valley Auto. “Irish Brian” was great to work with. He had us in the exact vehicle we were looking for for a test drive in a little as 10 minutes. When we returned from our test drive we asked if there was anything else he had for us to look at and he didn’t try to push us into something that wasn’t in our price range. He also noticed the tires on the vehicle were not great before our test drive and already had it in mind to get us new tires as part of the deal. Only a few days after our purchase Brian was calling us to set up our appointment for our new tires. Matt in financing was great as well. Explained everything really well and kept us in a range we were comfortable in without pushing a bunch of add ons. They made it a easy and painless process for us. We couldn’t recommend them enough.

The service crew at platte valley is top notch. I called all around on my way out to Utah. I was hauling a 41’ fifth wheel and lost about 50% of my power. I was having troubles with the DEF system in my 2019 f350 (surprise surprise). Corie went out of his way to sneak us in. They were able to find a place to unhook my camper in their upper lot. After an hour of digging into it they found I had a bad pump. Mind you I had just had a ford dealer service it in rapid city Iowa the day before. They never looked at the pump. Corie and the team at platte valley overnighted the pump and had it installed the next day before 11am. The truck preformed great after that. I can’t say enough about Corie, Their diesel mechanic, and the team at Platte!You guys are doing it right!ThanksI owe u guys a beer!

Irish will indeed look all over the country until he finds a vehicle that works for you. He got the price down to where I was able to make a deal satisfactory to my budget, and got the new truck here quickly. Ask for him when you go in. The folks at Platte Valley will set up financing that works all the way around.
