Friendly, courteous staff. Great shuttle service.
Justin was awesome!! I wasn't pressured into getting add on at all. I was able to semi stay within my budget. I am thankful they were able to find me a better deal outside my Prequalification from my credit union.
Best shop!!!
Justin Waggoner is the most honest and hardworking salesman I’ve ever dealt with at any dealership in the Country. Most dealers say that they want what’s best for the customer, but Justin shows it. He felt like a trusted family member helping me find the right car. After years of encountering slimy sales departments at other dealerships, I finally found a dealership/salesman who wanted to find what I was going to be happy with in the end, not just what got them paid. Call Sam Leman Ford and ask for Justin. You’ll be thankful that you ... Read More

Good service. Just long wait for appt. Took a whole week to get a tcm flash program. I understand when u only have one good transmission tech. So overall the service was good
Got me in and out! Great customer service!
No one said upfront how long the software update could take. Wasn’t until tech arrived that anyone said it could take as long as 2-3 hours. Had I known that, I probably would have scheduled for a different day.
Very efficient
Sam Leman Ford went above and beyond to save our vacation! We were towing our camping trailer on a trip from IL to TN when the engine in our F150 started shuddering/bucking. I found the nearest Ford dealer (Sam Leman) and called and talked to Lyric, a service advisor, and she was able to get me in within 30 mins st the end of the day. Most of the technicians were leaving at the end of their shift, but she went and talked to a technician named Ryan who stepped up to spend an xtra 45 mins working on my truck.

My 1998 Ford Ranger had a high idle that wouldn't settle down after it warmed up. The mechanic at Sam Leman Ford diagnosed a leaking PCV tube as well as an original oxygen sensor that was going bad. The service rep Michael kept me informed with a fair estimate and an explanation of the repairs. The mechanic was able to fabricate a new tube. The oxygen sensor was a challenge. It had never been changed and was pretty much welded in there. It snapped off. The service rep kept me informed about costs and options to fix the sensor. We ... Read More

Justin is truly an exceptional salesperson who genuinely prioritizes his customers over making a quick buck. Throughout the entire process of buying my new car, he provided expert guidance and honest advice that was entirely in my best interest, proving that he cares more about building trust than chasing money. Because of his integrity and professionalism, I would recommend him a thousand times over to anyone looking for a vehicle. I am completely in love with the car I bought from him, and the entire experience was nothing short of fantastic.
I really enjoyed dealing with Isaac Jackson he was extremely friendly and very helpful, I’ll be asking for his help in the near future when my son needs a car.
I just recently bought my 2nd bronco through Sam Leman Ford. Issac helped me with it. He went above and beyond for me. Leman's has always been a very friendly dealership. Thank you Issac and Sam Leman for making my bronco buying experience a good one.
I had a 15 day service period after buying my car from this company and even though they were full of appointments they found a way to fit it their schedule to take a look at my car because it was making a squeaky noise. They found out it was a easy fix and was covered in the policy with the service period. Thank you so much for I was worried about it.
I came in for an oil change with no appointment. They got me in and out very fast. The only disappointing thing which is not in your control is I cannot log on to my Ford pass and receive any points since I bought the truck I cannot find anyone that can help. That's been going on since 2018 when I bought the truck. Ford corporate was no help.
Our salesman Mike Sellmyer was awesome. Highly recommend!
Your trip to Sam Leman Ford isn’t complete without buying from Jamari White. Jamari makes the process easy and like you’re talking with a friend. I couldn’t recommend this young man enough. Thanks again for all your help Jamari!
Had the first oil change on my 2026 F150 and as always Sam Leman service did a great job.
Easy to deal with
Issac and the rest of the team were great to work with!
After they changed my oil they told me that the cabin filter & engine filter needed changed as only one was covered but not they other - why they did change the one that was covered - I’d really like to know why they didn’t . It kind of make me mad they didn’t cranes the one that was gonna be covered
Excellent customer service, friendly staff, etc…
Worked well with my needs and addressed all of my concerns. Very friendly and helpful.
Excellent communication & service - Tiffany is the best!
I love the Saturday no appointment for oil change. Fast, easy and dependable service!!!
Performed the service I asked for no pressure and great service!
Had great service at Sam Leman Ford. Fast and easy to work with. Shout out to Justin Waggoner for helping me with my new F150. Great guy to deal with, giving a good customer experience.
They were great! Ford worked on my vehicle in a timely manner and shuttled me back to work and even delivered my vehicle back to me. As well as keeping me updated with text messages.
Awesome experience ! Very convenient ! Alex is AWESOME
Great dealership. Friendly and polite staff in both sales and service. Quick and attentive. I would definitely recommend.
Great service
Received a recall notice for my 2012 Ford Focus, which I bought here (when it was Dennison). They couldn’t have made it more convenient or easier to get the issue resolved. Same day mobile appointment. While I had a 4-hour window, the tech communicated when they were on the way. They were here for about 15-20 minutes. That’s it. The tech was very courteous as was the individual I spoke with when making the appointment.
As an out of state buyer, Michael Sellmyer was awesome to deal with as he has great people skills! The price was fair and communication was perfect. All went smooth including the financing. The delivery all the way to Riverside California was pretty quick as well! Thank you to everyone who helped on making my purchase as smooth as possible.
Love the mobile service calls- so convenient!
10/10 experience with issac getting my 350, everyone there worked for us and answered all our questions no judgement amazing financing team as well!
They were very quick, prompt, and easy to work with. Will be back again!
My experience today was very good. I had people listen to what I needed and helped me. Thank you.
On time & quick service
This dealership was fantastic, and my salesman Issac was so helpful! Other than some minor delays with getting the paperwork done ( due to bad weather), my experience was great! I am very happy so far with my new to me vehicle, got a good deal on my trade, and I was treated with respect!
I just purchased a used Tesla from Jamari and he was awesome! I also sell cars and may have been a little tough on Jamari but he was super professional throughout the whole process and went out of his way to go above and beyond for me. 10/10 experience, thanks Jamari!
Had appointment but time was incorrect on there end maybe look like my mistake. Third time that's happened good thing more ford stores around.
Muy amables excelente personal en atención al cliente
The mobile mechanic came to my house to fix a recall software problem. He was on time and very friendly and he even changed the battery in my key fob. I had a great experience with this new added feature.
Absolutely professional service and great attitudes. High quality attention to detail. Would recommend and do!
Excellent service and went out of their way to get parts and fix everything up for my son’s truck. Will definitely be going back!
Overall great experience. They had the exact vehicle I was looking for. Handled most of the paperwork online so the day of pickup was stress-free. My sales rep was a pleasure to work with and I walked away feeling like I received a fair deal. Even though the dealership is an hour from me, I would definitely return in the future.
The tech kept me informed about their arrival time. They were curious and gave me all the details of what they were doing. The follow up was just as informative. Thank.you.
I drove 4.5 hours each way just to buy a car from them. This alone shows their customer care and fair pricing. I had a great experience with all their staff but I really appreciated my salesman, Javonn.
Great customer service. We are from Wisconsin and our car broke down just outside Bloomington. Hubby had to have it towed got there within 15 mins of close on a Saturday. On Tues they called and said they could have the part in Wednesday for an extra fee. Our car was fixed that day. We were on our way back down to Mississippi to drop our grandkids off back home. Excellent work!!!
Great experience, great people
Mike was incredibly patient with me throughout the whole process. No pressure to purchase my vehicle and very straightforward.
We had a wonderful experience and great service thanks to Justin who sold us a beautiful 2026 f150 we couldn't be happier with our purchase Sam Leamans Ford of Bloomington great service great deals!
Lyric was outstanding. Very friendly and accommodating.
Professional service, courteous staff, decent price for oil change, diagnosed a couple other issues that needed attention on my vehicle.
I left my vehicle at the dealership for diagnostics. I was provided a ride to and from work by their shuttle service. I was sent texts regarding status of their service. Overall easy process.
Excellent customer service! On time, personable and professional. Would definitely recommend to others. I was impressed.
Our salesman, Issac Jackson was very kind and great to work with. The finance department went above and beyond to get us into our New Explorer. All around great experience. Highly recommend.
I recently purchased a 2002 Ford Thunderbird from Sam Leman Ford. The salesperson was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Also, they were very accommodating and allowed me to take the car for an inspection by my mechanic before deciding to purchase the car. They thoroughly cleaned the car prior to delivery. Overall, it was an excellent experience.
if you go to Sam Leman ford ask for Issac he was very respectful, knowledgeable and took the time to find a vehicle that met the requirements that we were looking for.
Everyone did their job. No issues. I appreciate that they did not push the "extras" at closing after I said I was not interested. Not always the case at car dealerships.
Got “the works” package which included an oil change, tire rotation, and inspection - they took the truck right away when I got there and did the work very quick at a very reasonable price. Very impressed and happy with the service!

We just purchased a new Explorer from Sam Leman Ford in Bloomington Il so happy with vehicle. We got the pleasure of meeting Vince are salesman who did a fantastic job of explaining everything to us, probably the best salesman we have had on the purchase of a new car.
Had a smooth buying experience with the entire team from sales to finance. Highly recommend!
On time, cordial, knowledgeable
Great service, you couldn’t meet better people.
Mike, my Service Consultant, does an amazing job, always friendly, and takes great care of seeing that my Explorer gets the service it needs. The whole team of Service Consultants are great! And, I always feel confident knowing my vehicles are repaired right, and with Ford parts! Best place in town to take your Ford vehicles for service.
A recall? Yes, but I didn't have to drive to Leman to get it fixed,, wait or get a ride home, then get a ride back. Happily, Ford came by, got my key, and repaired the car. Saved me time. Thanks
