Mullinax Ford Uses Bait & Switch To Profit From Recent World Tragedy ..patriotism ripoff bull! *Consumer Suggestion Fraud Chick
A lot of car dealers in Ohio have been offering 0% financing in light of recent national events. Mullinax Ford in N. Canton is one. As my husband and I discovered when we got there, however, what they advertise is not true. Amazingly when we arrived they were out of all cars that they were offering 0% financing on. All they had left were cars with 2.9% interest. Fine. We left.
Low and behold when we received our Saturday paper who had a huge ad for 0% on 2001 and 2002 cars? You guessed it Mullinax! What a surprise. When I called the dealership to inquire about this I was hung up on twice. When I finally did speak to someone he said sorry for the misunderstanding and they do have 0% on 2001 and 2002 vehicles. When I explained that we were told on Wednesday they didn't have any more 2001 vehicles he corrected himself to say oh yeah that's right but we have 2002 cars with 0%.
Well, we aren't going to waste another trip down there, in fact even though we have used the dealership for years we will no longer shop there. I think it is disgusting that so many businesses are trying to make a profit off the recent tragedies and it only makes it worse when they actually try to take advantage of people in the name of "patriotism".
