I own an event booking agency. I was booking a Used Car Tent Sale for Sunrise Ford. I had the location for the sale and the contract with set dates.

I went to the city of Fontana to secure the operating permits for the sale. The amount of the temporary use permit for the event had risen by $490.00. I called my contact at the dealership, apprised him of the situation, asked if I could write the check and be reimbursed by the dealership as this would be easier than going back to the dealership, waiting for a new check to be issued and then go back to the city office. The contact said yes, go ahead, we will reimburse you. I did so and completed all necessary steps at the city of Fontant to obtain permit.

Sunrise Ford then asked me to change the dates of the car sale to following weekend. I called the shopping center and was told no, that would be impossible. The dealership had done too many date changes in the past with the shopping center and the shopping center manager was done with that. So, sale was cancelled.

The city does not issue refunds on permit applications as they had started their work and had nothing to do with the lost sale.

Sunrise Ford has now refused to pay me my own money ($490) back on permit. They have defaulted on a loan of a lousy $490.00. I have now taken action in small claims court against them.

I am a small business owner and $490.00 to me is a lot more than $490.00 to a large Car Dealership. Additionally, there is principle involved here. If these people cannot stand by their word on a small loan, well, I would never buy a car from them.

I believe their actions towards me represents their overall lack of honesty and integrity. I would advise Ford buyers to look elsewhere for their next purchase. Basically, I believe, actions towards one is a representation of actions towards all. In my opinion, only, these people can't be trusted.

sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company your comments on this policy are welcome!

I could not get my server to Dan Bruniati, personally. The docs were handed to Tony Buceieri. I called the Fontana Court. They said that should fly and so the story continues. See them in court Jan 9. What a bunch of ripoffs. With people like them working for Ford...well no wonder Ford is in the shape it's in. Character determines Destiny. These dealership has none.

Hey - Same thing happened to me but with Noble Community Medical Associates, a group of Chiropractors. Talk about a bunch of Crooks! I fronted them the money in the same manner as you did. I farted around with them for a month and they wrote me a RUBBER CHECK! I sued and WON. It will be nice to see a car dealer finally get sued in Small Claims Court. and LOSE! Good Luck! ! !

He's a car dealer for crying out loud. "Honesty and Integrity" used in the same sentence as car dealer? "Actions towards one is a representaion of actions towards all". You have this backwords. They screw their customers all day long, WHY would they NOT screw a single person? It would s****..
