Hey Mr or Mrs Yuk I read your Rip Off Report. Trust me this A Hole never did you any favor at all. What a RIP OFF. A Lojack Recovery System for ($1295). God Dammm They sell the POOP here in Phoenix for about $350 to $450 Tops. A Lojack is no more than the size of a Beeper. You might say it is a hidden "BEEPER" in your car. What a RIP for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295! Talk about going DEEP! Sounds like to me that you are a car buyer with VERY GOOD credit. You say She offered some finance options: 1. For a loan of $24000 at an interest rate of 5.25% for 36 months, the monthly payment would be $740 (total payment is $26640) 2. She said they had a special. If we buy an Extended Service Warranty ($795) and a Lojack Recovery System ($1295), she can offer us an interest rate of 3.79% for 36 months. The loan would be $26174 ($24000 + $795 + $1295 + tax + fee), and the monthly payment would be $770 (total payment is $27732) NO and I mean NO bank will tell a customer " If you buy a Lojack and a Extended Service Warranty that they will give you a better interest rate. This is just a F&I ploy to sucker and yes I mean sucjer you into buying a bunch of extra junk to increase the size if the F&I lady's paycheck. Trust me I feel that she was trying to RIP you OFF! trust me you could have gotten thelow interest rate with or with out OVER PRICED Lojack. Call up a few of your local new car dealers in your area and act like you want to buy a Lojack for your car. See what they will sell it to you for. You might get pissed at your friendly Toyota dealer after a few phone calls. Trust me you had good credit! Or she would have never offered you the low rates in the first place. I feel she was trying to SCAM YOU! You later said in your posting the follow: "She was talking so fast, and we could not follow her (now, I think she was trying to confuse us" That is the PLAN of many car dealers, To keep you under their control untill they are done getting you to give them MO MONEY! You later said she said the follow: You can do your calculation at home I am busy and I have to finish this I have been doing this for years Our numbers are accurate Sounds like she was getting pissed because she was loosing control of you and wanted to get control of your thinking again! Then you post: Vada tried to rush us and make fun of us by saying things like, Are you reading every word This is just a standard contract You don't need to worry about this Come on, she (my wife) can do it by herself That was here plan to bush you back into her control. And as far as the below: On May 14, 2004, my wife went to the dealership, and Vada referred her to Peter Vi, finance manager (I don't know his title). I was out of town, and I called his office while my wife was there. Peter told us that there was a problem in their computer system and caused their number to be wrong. Yeah Right! car dealers love to blame the "Computer" Remember we are talking COMPUTER! This means s**t GOES IN, s**t COMES OUT! I think you are one of the customers that are smart and this lady thought you were going to be easy to control. She got pissed I bet because she found out that you were watching her and keeping a close eye on her numbers. Trust Me on this. Most F&I people are trained to run you through their SPEW real fast so you, the buyer will not catch their Rip OFf's and scams! Dumb people that do not have the ability to Rip Off car buyers and make sure that the car buyer will not see the Rip Off's and SCAMS are NOT permitted to have a job in the F&I office. Many car dealers want smart, fast and decptive people in the F&I office. That way they can Rip Off car buyers and not get cought. Want Proof of F&I SCAMS! Go to the follong Rip Off Report. Read it real good and look at the second picture REAL GOOD! www.badbusinessbureau.com/reports/ripoff52158.htm I would love for you to post the so-called better deal she gave you so I could respond to that. I would not bee too fast to think that you got a better deal. What a RIP OFF $1295 for a Lojack! You should be PISSED in a big way! I am willing to bet that Lojack only pays maybe at tops $15 to $20 each to have them made. Come on it is no bigger then a BEEPER. Remember BEEPERS a few years ago they gave beepers out for FREE if you signed up for a years service! the only think I can say I feel is WHAT A RIP OFF! $1295! Did your F&I lady tell you how much they will charge you to have a battery put in your Lojack when it needs one? Did she tell you how to find out when the battery in your Pager, OOPS I mean Lojack goes dead? How does one find out when their Lojack battery goes dead,does it have a indicater light on your dash? for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295!, What a RIP for $1295!

Two weeks later, Shelli Cole (finance director at Don McGill Toyota) called and was willing to resolve our concerns. We met with her at her office. She was nice and polite. She asked us what happened, and we told her the details. She said Vada Cacamo made an honor mistake, but the way Peter Vi handled it was wrong. She apologized and emphasized they never intend to deceive customers. She offered us two options: 1. Return the car. She will issue a full refund to us. 2. Keep the car and work out a new deal. She will rescind the original contract and prepare a new one as if it is a new sale. We were surprise to hear that. We chose option 2 and offered her a price. She accepted, and we signed a new contract. We were satisfied with the deal. Everything was resolved. During the whole process, Shelli was sincere and professional. Folks, thank you for reading my message.
