- In this video I share a recorded call to a Dodge dealership inquiring on a 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona they had listed at a completely different price than they were actually asking. How is this ok?

Thanks!
Thanks so much!!!!👍👍🙏🙏
She was not getting spicy you were just not listening.
@@diegoharo7943 she WAS getting spicy. Im in ill , I know owner who took over this dealership. They pulled it on me and 6 other dealers here did , new hellcat durangos orig list before options has been going up 2k a yr, so loaded now 112k instead of first year 97k. Same vechile, now they are offering 8k off list ONLY if you finance. Its just a gd game and they blame stelantis for screwing them while they been charging over list last 4 yrs. She knew her lines and kept ignoring g his questions. I've gone into Kunes ,ect with 100k in cash and if you don't finance you pay list. Its a shell game. Thats why those cars are getting repoed, people that can't afford just sign, dealer don't care. Its sad now buying most new cars.
@diegoharo7943 lol you just like to get bent and take it 😂
@@diegoharo7943 what she was doing is illegal. If it is advertised for that price it’s illegal not to sell it for that price. Your clueless.
That’s call “Bait and Switch “. Illegal as hell. Walk away from dealerships like this.
Owners, store managers, sales reps, need to be held accountable. Unfortunately, our legal and corp system supports the scams.
In my state, they have to list the vin number in the ad. If they don't honor the price, you can report them to the state.
They can't bait and switch with an ad designed to bring you in and then tell you they already sold that particular car and try to sell you another at a different price.
@@christopherleveck6835 they can because they know nobody is gonna waste $50k on lawyers to sue them. Beyond that nothing will happen to them.
These scumbag dealers list cars they know they don’t have just to get you in. “Oh we JUST sold that one. But we have others we can show you”. Went through this not too long ago trying to get a car for my daughter. Complete nightmare.
It's funny how if you "incorporate" it magically shields you from police and you can get away with ripping people off.
I worked for a private parking lot management company who's bread and butter was tickets.
Well, as it turned out many of these lots didn't meet standards such as proper drainage, paving etc. They had no license to operate... But they sure as hell kept ticketing people who were late or not paid.
Obviously, these tickets were unenforcible legally but they did it anyways.
Ironically, the company president happened to be treasurer of the local BBB!
I got canned eventually but when I read the local BBB got a new boss, I hand wrote a letter clearly detailing the fact that this company was knowingly issuing worthless tickets to unsuspecting drivers, effectively fraud.
I don't know if it was me but he was no longer treasurer of the BBB the following year.
I wish dodge would get involved in these situations. The dealerships shouldn’t be able to pull these scams
Ford had stepped in and stopped dealer games in the past. Dodge surely would not approve of this
they are, but state like Florida are trying to ban direct mfr to consumer. the mfrs have gotten tired of seein ghtis, old boy DeSantis doing what he can to keep it going.
Dodge will get involved, that is why they are not listing it as an auction.
@mumrah73 dodge will put a stop to this if they find out. I had a similar experience where I got ripped off. Dodge forced the dealer to take the vehicle back or write me a check for the difference.
It's all a scam
Good for this dude for calling out this shady dealership.
Most car salesman are scummy...they want to make the most...I like tesla model...we're u dont have to deal with car salesman
The salespeople have no control over the price of the car. The owner of the dealership and then the desk (management). Don’t give the salespeople a hard time as they have no control and it won’t do any good. Talk to the desk.
Im sure that car is still sitting.
Not shady. As soon as the man mentioned the call to the lady she said it was a bid car.
However we do appreciate you calling the dealership and asking them why it's higher than the price they have listed it at.
I live 10 miles from there and was going to buy a brand new Dodge Ram this weekend from them and pay cash, thanks for this video I will take my money somewhere else. Looks like they lost a hell of a lot more now then just the $100k lol and btw you gained a new subscriber!
@jfool289 you should go in and make a deal, then when it's time to finalize, tell them to pound salt and take your business elsewhere.
Paying cash is not an incentive for dealers they want to sell u the loan too
@@beefyessence yup ..... They make money on the back end.
do not go to any Napleton dealerships, there know for scams. My sister received a check from them after a lawsuit was settled , she bought Durango in 2020
Cash isn't king no more.
I cringed even as a spectator. LOL.
Thank you for exposing these scammers.
Difficult to listen to
I am thrilled you recorded this. I owned a Kia Stinger and went back to Kia to buy an EV6 as well. They were selling cars that were preordered where the customer changed their mind and couldn't afford them to staff… then after 3 months they'd flip it got 20 grand over MSRP. I scoffed and walked away. A year later they're. phoning me begging me to come in and look at one. Too late. Dealerships are their own worst enemy.
I'm a Stinger owner as well who had an EV6 on order but decided to cancel. I sat in one at an auto show and it didn't habe great headroom. Also, handling is not as good as I would want it. It's not a Stinger replacement. In my opinion, it's good you didn't get it.
dealerships have no loyalty at all to their customers. If they found out you bought one there before, they’ll try even harder to rip you off.
You should contact the Illinois Attorney General’s Office. Also it’s good that you told them that you were recording the call. Illinois is a two party consent state.
Illinois Attorney General is way to busy with being woke and making the state of Illinois a dangerous place to live. He says, “It’s the work of my life.”
These cars aren't designed to last long enough to appreciate to that level.
It’s the people that participate in this scam that are actually at fault.
I agree
A fool and their money are soon parted
IF, they stay in a garage. The guy is too old for a kid car. He’s Corvette or Ferrari type.
He don’t have the $100k anyway!
People said the same thing about the 1970 Challenger with the 426.
I was on my way to Napletons dealership today and ran into this video and ended up going somewhere else. This is sickening
Didn’t happen.
"Depends on what discounts you qualify for, military, teacher, first responder..." Right because teacher's, first responders, and active military personnel buy $100K cars.
Actually you have to be an ex-Nazi living in Argentina, that is the "military" discount. There are so many DISQUALIFYING parts of qualifying that nobody will only get angry; if they are stupid they will buy and if smart walk.
That's just a common scam that dealerships use to list a lower price. They'll be a dozen different "discounts" and maybe you qualify for 1-2 of them, but it allows them to advertise an artificially low price that nobody is going to get.
Its called, "False Advertising" and its a CRIME. The federal govmnt frowns heavely on this and it needs to be addressed in a COURT. This is "engaging in commerce by manipulation," "Illegal Bait n switch," false adverising" etc
Wrong.
@@garyh4458Wrong
😂 bro the government lets people starve. They dont care
This is completely false advertising…agreed. Sure plenty of dealers have sold in-demand cars for over MSRP…they also did so with transparent sales pricing and not these bait and switch shady tactics. Thats the difference between honest, up front sales technics and false advertising scams. One treats their customers as valued worthy adults, and the other like hapless fools. Any dealer that resorts to such sketchy sales gimmicks are not worthy of my business or loyalty and deserve to be publicly shamed and reported.
How is it false advertising? It is being advertised as a car and that is what it is. There are so many people commenting in this thread who have no grasp on the real laws.
Report them to the Better Business Bureau immediately that is illegal!
The BBB is just a review website. It means nothing.
Wrong. So many commenters on here who have no idea about what is legal or not.
A Google review carries more weight than BBB.
"Its not an auction but we're taking bids" Wtf? Thats literally what an auction is...
Liberal Logic 😂
$200,000 for a Dodge!!! Not today!!
I am a retired GM for a highline metro dealership and can tell you this: They have to sell you the car at the ad price! There are plenty of attorneys who will be happy to represent you if they refuse.
Napleton Auction House
I wish they would have a attorney on the call to see what they would say or stroll into the dealership with a attorney for the same advertised deal to see their reaction.
AGREED. This happened to me as well, I even had an email from the General Manager on an agreed price, sight unseen. I traveled 3hrs. to Renton WA Nissan Dealership, and the sales guy handed me a paper that was $6k OVER the price. I showed him email, etc. and it got nowhere. I'm keeping this short, but I left, then called back and said i have the advertised price as shown on the internet, and this email, if they do not honor it I will to straight to the better business bureau as well as the WA state AG and file complaints. They ended up honoring CLOSE to the price.... but it's BS. We all need to just WALK OUT when this is encountered, at any business.....
You do realize the BBB doesn't do anything right? It's a member program and that is it. They don't fight for your rights or anything. We had a customer once in the Fuel Business days that filed a complaint, we simply responded "the issue was resolved with the customer" that was the END of it issue with BBB was closed. We never talked to the customer heck we didn't even know who they were or for what. Your best bet is your State AG office, they will go after these places and fine them.
@@Meekerextreme Yes, I know the BBB has little power, but like you said, many people don't realize that. Even with no ability to penalize the business, it still is a negative comment on their record. Now, a Google review is 10x worse, and means a lot more. Business do NOT want any negative Google reviews. But the customer has to use this 'tool' professionally, meaning post pictures of the ad, the car, the dealership, documentation is even better, much like you did here. Pictures (video) is worth 1000 words... Great conversation.
Companies don’t car about reputation anyone, it’s all about greed under the guise that the pandemic caused this issue. Ridiculous.
Car dealerships keep reinforcing stereotypes about car dealerships.
Normal people don't buy cars that cost this much. The rules change at that level.
but they are feeding on the stereotypes on blacks
this whole country has gone bat shit crazy
It started when manufacturers decided they were going to make $20k profit on every truck and dealers would make another $10k profit.
@@glenerickson358 It started when Joe Biden was elected President.
A dealership being deceptive? Unprecedented!
Yes! And thank you for calling the dealer out by name! Eff them!
I used to work there. It was my worst experience in the car business I have been in the car business 21 years. Absolutely insane the way they operate.
Robin is just as good as an automated call menu
She's a robot bot
I'd take the automation. At least no lying.
Let me help you out for next time.
1. What is its lot number?
2. Where do I go to place a bid on this lot item?
3. Ask if it is a public bid or a private bid for this lot?
4. Where do I go to see the final biding price after the auction is closed on this lot?
5. When did the bidding start and in what date and time is bid last bid accepted?
6. What is the name of the Auction House that is Authorized to run this auction?
7. What is the name of the "Certified and Licensed" Auctioneer that is over this event or lot? What is his licenses number?
8. Since this is in Illinois. The dealership can not run action on their own. There are many many Laws the dealership has to follow here!
9. If they can not answer ANY of these questions. They are committing State and Federal Fraud laws.
They can not just up and say that they want auction this car off. It does not work that way. I have worked with several dealers when it comes to auctions. AND! Let me tell you. Government is VERY strict when it comes to car auctions.
What you now have here is a lawsuit on the Dealership for conspiring to comment state and federal fraud on the public.
Gettem!!!
It isn't an auction. People are bidding and the dealer will choose who they want to sell it to. They don't even have to sell it to anyone.
@@garyh4458They have to sell it for what they are asking, they are illegally making their own rules!
@@garyh4458ITS AN AUCTION...HENCE, THE BIDDING......
Like how he repeated thst 'This call may be recorded or monitored' to keep it legal.
This is an auction, now ask for their auctioneer license information!
How is this different than selling a house? Are houses sold as auctions? No, they aren't. Houses are sold at the discretion of the seller based on offers. This car is no different.
Seems like Gary works for these scammers 🤔 always has to comment under posts like this
@@G1NG3RUSA Maybe you are the scammer.
@@garyh4458 ITS OBVIOUS YOU ARE CLUELESS ABOUT DEALERSHIP RULES AND REGULATIONS ARE IN THE STATE OF ILLINOIS.....
@@garyh4458 IVE PROBABLY BEEN INVOLVED IN OVER 200 HOUSE AUCTIONS... YES, HOUSES ARE AUCTIONED... AND EVEN IF THERES ANOTHER BID, IT CAN GO BACK AND FORTH..... GO EDUCATE YOURSELF.....SOON...
Appreciate in price? Soon as it leaves the lot we all know the value falls harder than a dog falling out of a tree 😂😂😂
Imagine the depreciation when that POS HEMI blows up! My Dodge-fanboy uncle replaced 3 engines in his '14 truck, before he finally got the clue to get rid of the garbage. His replacement Escalade has been trouble free. These dealers are high on gasoline fumes if they think these are gonna appreciate, theyre not worth half of MSRP.
This is exactly why transparency is KEY in car buying! Dude was ready to drop $120k and they wasted his time with misleading pricing. Sounds like they're more interested in a bidding war than making a sale. Great job calling them out on it!
I'm glad to see someone calling these ripoff dealers out. Thanks for your diligence! 💯
Simple as file a report with the Federal Trade Commision (FTC) since you recorded the call, and have the evidence of misleading and false advertising. They will open an investigation, and more likely, the dealership will face costly fines. In the worst case scenario (for the dealership), the FTC can demand the dealership to sell you the vehicle for the sale price of 98K as advertised. Good luck, and thank you for putting these people in the know.
The fine to them is the cost of doing business. Some dumbass will pay a huge markup and the extra money they make from it will offset any "fine" they get. They need to have the franchise license revoked. These dealers make multimillion every month....
This is why people hate dealing with dealerships. Had a bait and switch with a family member recently. He walked out the door.
This would be illegal here in Ontario, Canada. Dealerships are not allowed to sell for a cent more than the advertised price here (including adding fake service charges etc).
I live in Ontario as well and I’ve OMVIC on a dealership that tried switching the price on my daughter when she went in to buy a car. Needless to say she got a phone call the next day from the dealership honouring the advertise price and they gave her a $500 discount on top
it definitely is a good law in Ontario, all in advertise pricing
I have to give you credit for not losing your mind while talking to these people, you are truly a saint. They are either incredibly ignorant or completely disingenuous or some combination of both. Really management is to blame assuming they were aware of the ad. I don’t get the point of them not clearly stating that this was a bid offer, because the bids are apparently exceeding the MRSP. I love when you tell the lady she’s getting a “little bit spicy” lmao😅
DCH in Hemet CA has a 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Demon 170 Widebody
For a small price of $278,000 MSRP is $134,000
Insane!
That dealership is awful also. I would never buy from them after my experience and recommend the same to anyone that’ll listen. Just list the damn cars for what you’ll sell for.
I’d never pay over Msrp
I’m going there tomorrow I live in hemet if they don’t sell it too me for msrp im suing
@@shawnhicks9838 They don't need to sell it to you for MSRP. Please look up the meaning of "S" in MSRP.
Illegal! You have a snapshot of the listing for $98, thou. That is what it has to be sold for according to Federal Law. Sue them!
And this is why we would prefer direct from factory sales.
This goes on all the time...Not so much bidding on a car, but you walk in, and the price you see advertised has nothing to do with reality. It's happened to my dad, and they tried that crap with my son, who they thought was young and easy to mess with. He was older than he looked, married, and not to be messed with. My son held his ground, argued until they were ready to off themselves, and after 45 minutes of back and forth bullsh*t, he basically got the price that was advertised when he told them he would go to a different dealership and see what they could do for him. It's worse than ever now.
Good for you standing your ground and exposing these scammers!!!
The car is sitting for 273 Days, and they are asking a hundred grand more…..for a dodge? It’s not a Lamborghini! lol! It’s been sitting that long because people are getting tired of getting scammed from Covid-- those days are over! The money isn’t there, nor the interest rates. And cash buyers are few and far away now.
Went through this with Coastal Kia for a stinger gt2 they marked up $26,000. Found this out when I got there checked online car on lot for 380 days. After talking to 2 salesman was told we have called the police you may want to leave. I waited talked to the cops who told me they come out here every week for the same bs disturbance calls😂. Car still at the dealership about to have a 2nd birthday.
I have NEVER understood how the car buying process is so counter to any other product buying.
Hate it, hate it, hate it.
These is the main reason why people are sick and tired of dealerships is
This is so strange. They have the car on the lot for like 275 days (showing it's not in high demand or it would have already sold), and when someone at least claims they will pay the listed price they say "no, we're taking bids." Crazy!
You'd think they'd be happy to sell the car after it sitting this long! I like the manager's thing about now saying it's going to be "market based price". Well, if even the price they have it at it has not sold, then it's already above market price! Again, to me this is crazy! $100,000 adjustment, they think it's going to sell for $198,000 when it didn't sell already for like $101,000? Reminds me of all those areas in the past that had vacant apartments and buildings, saying "Well, they are at market price" -- well, if they are sitting empty, they are not.
I do find this rather dishonest, but also surprising that they bothered with it since it's not going to help it sell.
The dishonesty here is mostly in the poster.
Brad i love your reactions and pauses during these calls lol. It says it all
MSRP on this vehicle is around $101K. There are dealers lying and claiming that the MSRP is over $250K
I hope that they sell these things for 250 grand. Because people are stupid.
Im glad I don’t have enough money to have these problems 😂.
😥
Now that's just sad 💀
Lol
We used to call this "bait and switch" and not surprisingly, that is illegal...
👍👍 first time viewer.. excellent work!! The more you show the bad folks, they will have to change or go out of business. 😮
You nailed it! And this is why we hate dealers. Had this game played on an RT purchase last year. One price on the Internet and a different price when the paperwork was written up. I'm glad I got pissed and walked away from the sale. I bet they'd beg me to buy this year. Screw them, plenty of used available.
After what dealerships have shown over the last few years, I am surprised anyone is shocked about this. If there was anyway I could not go to a dealer to purchase my next car if its new, I certainly would not.
This is why dealerships will be a thing of the past.
She wasn’t tryna hear non of that she just wanted to book an appointment 😂 they full of shyt
Went to buy a GMC truck a month or so ago. The number of dealerships that list a number on their site and then refuse to honor it when you make a cash offer is insane. A handful of them couldn’t even give me a firm out the door number as a cash deal. They make so much money on financing they essentially refuse to work with cash buyers.
You are absolutely right, I paid cash for a car back in 2019 and I tell you they treat you like completely crap when you pay cash, they get angry when they can't get you to finance!
Yep offered $50k out the door for a 2022 Scat Challenger listed at $55,500 (window sticker stated $53,700 new) they wouldn't come down under $53k seemed insulted when I asked out the door cash price and they gave me the run around. Walked away.
@@jeffdohse3740 wound up doing basically the same thing at a few dealerships. Not one to brag on any business I’m not affiliated with but Laura Buick GMC in Illinois was a no nonsense dealership that gave a cash price and honored it when I showed up. Would recommended them to anyone.
@@JeffSmith-mx7xnit didn't bother me bc 2 days later i found a 2021 octane red scat WITH the 1320 package with under 7000 miles paid $49k cash + the dealer shipped it 400 miles to my driveway So it just goes to show some dealerships will do more to make a sale.
Lady: Do you want to submit a bidding??
Me: Did I call Mecum Auction by mistake?
This may be why I would never purchase anything from a Dodge Dealer again.
DODGE should be the reason to never purchase a Dodge, Junk!... But Stealerships from all manufacturers enjoy these fraud games! Sorry, but you'll have to avoid the majority of dealerships, and I hope YOU DO! We need to let these new cars rot on the lots, and send the message loud and clear!
I found your channel today and subscribed! I've know for a while that limited run cars had a market adjusted price. They should state that in their ad for sure, just make it simple, state your price up front.
INSTANT SUB!! Robin’s back peddle was hilarious😂😂😂
She was terrible
I bet if you went and filed a lawsuit against them they would have to honor that price.
They told you 2 things. 1st person said they are "accepting bids" The 2nd guy said "100k over" im pretty sure you have them dead to rights on bait and switch and unfair business practices
They get away with it because there will always be a bigger fool with money to part with.
Never owned a new car nor am im interested in this sort of content but i had to sub subscribe. I learned a lot from this video alone, along with some of the laws that go with auctioning vehicles through the coments. That phone call shinned a light on the scams that give car dealers a bad rep in the first place.
Imagine paying 100k for one of the most stolen vehicles in the country. 100k just to be a target🤣
they know a black will do it still
Do they know it’s technically a buyers market? Crazy the shady practices…not right!!!!
Recently went to a dealership in OK. Verified internet price on phone and availability twice before traveling the hour distance. Asked them to hold it we were on the way. When we arrived the vehicle has gained additional mileage of a few thousand more than listed and verified and addons of $5k on a dealer added windshield sticker.
Great vid, last guy was very respectful ❤
Call The Better Business Bureau and Dodge Corporate and report them for false advertisement.
Yep. I did this 3 years ago and corporate forced the dealer to honor the price.
This happened to me with a chevy avalanche .i drove 2 hours to buy it and they said i could only place a bid not buy at that time ..like wtf.....then he said if i was willing to pay a extra 10k i could buy it that day
You are a lot more patient than I can be. Love your video.
Surely, publicly stating that an item is a particular price for sale, then switching to an "auction" where people have to bid, is totally illegal under consumer law?
I would think that would be illegal too.
I've been through this with Ford Stealerships in my area too. Just so stupid. Bronco's at $20K over sticker, Shelby GT 500's $30 or $50K over sticker...it's just stupid. It has been going on for decades too. In 2010, I found the Shelby GT500 with the exact color and options I wanted, at my local dealership. Advertised price was MSRP. Went to the dealership and was told it was 10K over. Was just pissed off. Searched the internet and found the EXACT same car in GA with a 2K discount. Drove 3 hours and picked it up. Next morning I drove it to the stealing dealership and parked it right in front of the front doors. Walked in and asked to speak to the manager. Walked him out and told him to KMA cause I will NEVER buy another car from your stealership (had purchased 4 from them in the past). Put that on their website and got a lot of thumbs up. Screw these stealing POS.
Not only high end cars do this.
I just bought a 23 escape, ad stated dealer discounts and sale price then below stated rebates. When I told them I was interested in car they said sale price was with all rebates included.
Now for one, you can NOT use ALL rebates.
Two, it plainly stated the dealer name discount.
I found this to be be deceptive at many dealers now.
And you should have walked away.
👍🏻 Good job brother, keep up the good work
OC, is there a paint code for the Swinger Gold School rims or touch up paint that is close to the color?
Thanks for your videos
I really want to see a follow up video. Did you call the state's AG?
Thank you for recording and letting us know what dealer it is ❗
This makes me so sad! I would love to own a car like this. When I got divorced I went and bought myself a BEAUTIFUL Dodge Scat Pack! Of course I would’ve loved to have a faster one but this was the one in my budget. With these kinda dealerships I’ll never afford to upgrade!
I love taking my girl to the track and racing once and awhile. I don’t drive her every day, because when I do I want it to be extra fun!
Thanks for bringing this story to light!
I used to work for a Nissan dealership in NY as a sales person, and I left because management was dirty dealing to everyone. They tried to screw every customer. I set up every customer with Nissan North America's contact information if there was an issue. I offered a free lawyer consultation for when the contacts need to be signed, so if there was any questions, those customers had legal representation, there with them. When my customers came to pick up their new cars, we together went through a checklist to make sure everything was correct, included any accessories and features they ordered with their vehicle. When I left Nissan, I went to Porsche, and just about every prior Nissan customer I had are now Porsche owners. I try my very best to be honest and clear with all my customers. And I had found a Porsche dealership in Riverhead NY at the time that that believed in the same thing. That's rare.
Appreciate calling them and lecturing them. Good work
Awesome review on this sad what this car industries are becoming,seems customers our last thrives our our first 😢
Unbelievable!!! These companies are just gouging, they think because dodge can't put hemis in there cars anymore, so they are trying to get as much as possible which is ridiculous, good for you for calling them out!!!!
Cool 😎 . Good job Brad !
Wow thank you for that info.
I love it I sold cars back at 2000s I had a lot of training Yada listening to this woman try to hit you with the close ended questions and the tie downs I'm waiting for her to give you the feel felt found close. she is very inexperienced but i will give her credit she is trying to stay on script but its tough when you cant believe the lie.
That first representative that answered should not be taking calls. Obviously she was annoyed with the client by her responses. She should be more informed on the product the dealership is selling. The salesman was a lot more educated and was not bothered by the customer recording the call.
Right on I agree with you 100% Brother.!
It's not Right what they are doing to the People who want to Buy a Car
Yessssss good job brother
Hellz yeah OC!!!! This was an awesome video bro!!!! Damn those bastards!
A few months ago I was minivan shopping, found a few Pacifica’s for a much better discount vs what I could get locally. Called up two different dealerships both in the Chicago area & they played the same game. The +$15k discount on a $60k vehicle turned out to be about $1,200 off, more then what I could get one for locally.
Subbed. Great video!
great job on the video
Well done sir!!! Now sue the shit out of them. This is not a game.
Great Video as always ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
@ 4:35 Classic! I just work here sir lol. Even though you’re completely right there’s no way in hell i’m agreeing with you 😂😂😂
I have been at dealerships with market adjustments on cars that have been sitting on their lot for a while. I tell them straight up I would never pay over MSRP for any car but especially one that is just sitting on their lot. There is obviously not enough demand for the car, or it would never even make it to the lot.
Unfortunately that's the car industry. during the height of Covid a local "big 3" dealer had a vehicle online, I worked with the internet sales team and basically agreed upon a price and made an appointment to come and look at it. Made arrangements for child care and time to meet, and while I was in route, they told me via email that they were pulling the truck around to get it all cleaned up and it would be ready for me to look at when I got there.
When I arrived I was met by a salesman that said "I can't sell you this truck". The reason he gave is that there was an electrical issue with the Computer that they couldn't get the part because of shortages do to covid, but then proceeded to try to upsell me. Then they complained that they have gotten calls for months about this truck, and I promptly advised them that if you wanted to avoid the calls, then take it off the site if you can't sell it because it's broke.
Classic Bait and switch in my opinion.
This is gold, you gained a follower
She probably thought you were some little RUclips channel where 10 people would see it but it's sitting at 400,000 views!! lol that crooked company is going to pay that is dirty and that's what gives car dealerships a bad name! I just recently bought a new pickup truck from a dealership and I expected them to try to screw me over and cheat me and they actually didn't and that's the problem most dealerships are crooked like this one so we expect them all to be!! Great video buddy
Been there for two thirds of a year. Gonna be there the rest of the year and probably next year too... what idiots. So glad you exposed this.
Most honest Mopar dealership I had ever found was in Idaho. Also if you want the best deal go straight to the fleet sales manager. He can give you a better deal than anybody because he operates independent of everybody else in the dealership.
