History of Sheehy Auto Stores
In 1965, Sheehy Ford began as a small, suburban, family-owned car dealership just off the brand new Washington, D.C.
Beltway. Because of you, the customer, we were immediately successful,
and by 1975 had become the largest Ford dealership in the country. |
|
Today, the company is still primarily
family-owned and has grown to more than $900 Million in Sales with
30,000 vehicle sales per year. Our corporate name is Sheehy Auto Stores
with stores located from Baltimore, MD to Richmond, VA and down to Statesville, NC.
Sheehy has 18 locations in the Mid-Atlantic region with 23 franchises.
We are the largest retailer of Fords in the region and have the largest
selection of new Fords. We sell 50% of all the Fords sold in the Richmond
metro. We are one of the largest Nissan dealers in the Mid-Atlantic
with 6 locations. Our other franchises include Honda, Lincoln/Mercury,
Chevrolet, Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Lexus, and
Infiniti, all conveniently located. Of course, the most convenient
location is right here at www.sheehy.com, the most user-friendly web site on the Internet.
In addition to our exceptional employees,
our success has been driven by our customers' response to our unique
and innovative selling approach. In the 1970's we launched the 3-Day
Money Back Guarantee, a first-ever in the market. In 1991, we began the
now-famous Sheehy Mardown to ensure that no customer ever pays too much
for a vehicle at any of our stores. Every new car and truck is
value-priced below the manufacturer's list price with a Sheehy Markdown
sticker prominently displayed on the windshield.

The
same philosophy carries over to our Sheehy Select used cars and trucks,
where every vehicle is priced below Kelley Blue Book. Other elements of
the Select package include the 3-Day Money Back Guarantee and a
100-Point Inspection. Only one-third of the cars we trade pass a
rigorous inspection for resale.
Our value pricing also
extends to our Service and Parts departments. They are dedicated to
providing you with competitive pricing in a friendly, convenient
setting. At many of our locations, we are opening Express service lanes
to provide faster servicing of your vehicle.
Our
customer-centric approach has earned our stores some of the most prized
awards in the industry. All of our Ford stores are Blue Oval Certified.
Our Glen Burnie and Annapolis
stores have earned Nissan's Owner First Award for our achievements in
customer satisfaction. In addition, our Alexandria Honda dealership is
a past President's award winner and the Mitsubishi franchise has won
several Diamond Chapter of Excellence awards. These awards are only
possible due to your glowing responses to our sales and service. |
