I have never been so insulted by a company. The man who handled my application and phone conversation was very rude and condescending. Here we are talking about my finances and as I explained to him that my bankruptcy was because of a business I closed due to the economy…he explained that “ he knows about business, he has been in business for 22 years….(WHAT selling cars?! WTF cares…I mean real bu\r
siness)”. \r
All excuses aside, I have a bankruptcy open. When he asked me about a down payment, I explained that if I had the cash …I wouldn’t try financing a car; I would go to craigslist and outright purchase a car and cut out the middleman prices. BOY he hit the roof….”well if you don’t trust us and would rather buy from a person…DO you buy furniture from individuals, or fruit he asks.” Fruit…really? No, I buy my fruit from a grocery store, and I purchased my furniture new, this is a used car…\r
The man proceeded to tell me that “maybe that is why my business failed--- (why? Because of my reservations of salesmen?)…Really…I asked, “Why would you want to say that….” THIS man is EXACTLY why consumers would much rather go to the dentist, rather than buy a new car from a salesman. Rock on buddy….keep the reputation of car salesmen alive – of sneaky, greasy, greedy little salesmen-with your negative, condescending, ignorant attitude and your ill-chosen remarks.\r
This salesman, owner, manager….WHOEVER…had no right to speak to me the way he did. He had no right to place judgment on neither my lifestyle nor my financial situations. He especially had no right to tell me why my business failed. He is a peon selling cars….I am an educated, well respected woman, and I will list my review of this poor dealership experience on EVERY local car review I can find. \r
No consumer should be treated like I was by this idiot. And now I have a goal to let every consumer know exactly what a piece of …work this dealership represents. And next time your establishment decides that they want to talk down and insolent to a customer…they may think twice
