I bought a vehicle from this dealer, Kelly Blue Book
rated it at $6,000. After they attempted to sell it to me for $10,000,
only to be shot down miserably based on the KBB value, they said they
would sell it to me for 6. When I accepted this deal, during the finance
process, we were discussing the down payment of $2,000, which I was
totally willing to do. What they failed to tell me was that the down
payment did not go towards the financing of the vehicle, and was
actually direct profit to the dealer itself. So, after I signed the
paperwork and made my down payment, I realized that none of it went
towards the balance of the car itself, but straight into their pockets.
Not only that, they refused to give me a straight answer about my
interest rate on the car, continuously telling me that they have to wait
for the finance company. They use very intelligent tactics to misdirect
your attention from their dirty dealings.
All of that aside, two weeks after I bought the car, the power window
broke. I brought it back, and they fixed it free of charge. The window
then broke again the following week.
A week after the window incident, the alternator went out, the tires
shot, the alignment became unbearably off, and the engine mounts broke. I
brought it back to the dealer only to have them fix the mounts for
free, and the rest I had to pay out of pocket for because of ignorant
reasons they used to claim it was my fault it broke. Again, this is all
in the first month of owning the vehicle.
On top of all the repairs, the brake rotors were horribly bent, and made
a very loud crunch when you would press the brake. I continually
brought the car back for this reason from day one, and they kept telling
me there was nothing wrong with the brakes. I had to take it to a local
repair shop to have that repair completed.
Please do not go to this dealer, no matter how desperate you are. I was
an 18 year old kid, without credit, without a car, and only 2k to spend,
and I still regret going her more than anything. I will reiterate to
make this very clear.
