To whom it may concern:
My fiance went to Rodeo Ford of Plano with intentions
of purchasing a 2008 F150. He went on Thursday
3/13/08. They gave him an estimate on what his car
note would be where he signed a paper stating those
facts. He asked if anything was final and was told no
and he could drive the truck home that night. He
called the same night and spoke to the salesman.
He told him he no longer wanted the truck or to pay
such a high car note over a 72 month period of time.
He was told to come in on Saturday 3/15/08 to discuss
options. On Saturday myself and his mother
accompanied him. We were only there for about five
minutes before the rudeness started. We were in the
office with the finance specialist and the store
manager. They laughed in our face when he tried to get
a lower note. They offended us by stating his mother
gave him bad advice thinking he could get a lower note
with his bad credit. He then mad snide remarks and
laughed in our face. He proceeded to tell his mother
she should have taught him how to pay his bills on
time and maybe then he could get a lower note. VERY
UNPROFESSIONAL. After hearing the discouraging
remarks we decided to leave. We figured nothing was
finalized and not all of the papers were signed so we
could walk away and go to another dealership so we
could be treated more fairly. Instead the store
manager said we couldn’t go anywhere else since he
signed a contract. He was hesitant to show us the
papers and said we would receive copies in the mail.
We proceeded to the showroom floor where things got
heated. My fiance tried to give the truck keys back
and wanted his car he used for a trade in back. The
store manager started yelling and pointing fingers.
Since we are all upset everyone was yelling in front
of the showroom floor. Instead of taking us into a
back room to go over the terms the manager calls the
police. The police come and escort us out of the
dealership. They said if we needed to speak to them
to contact the dealer via phone. Mind you my fiance
was never given a second set of keys to the truck. He
never signed over the title to his trade in car. He
didn’t have current insurance or was the new truck
under his insurance when he left the dealership. He
wasn’t counseled by the financial center. Not all
papers were signed. And he wasn’t told when his car
note was due nor when to come back to get his tags for
the truck. This doesn’t sound final to me. Never in my
life have I been treated unfairly. I don’t care how
mad someone is about not getting the perfect sale. No
manager should yell at a customer who is wanting their
business.
