Schimmer Ford Hyundai responded

This is a private response to your review - not wanting to discredit you publicly. It's quite frustrating that you left that review for our dealership. You signed many sheets of paper saying you understood we had not fully inspected that vehicle and you were welcome to take it to your own mechanic. You were presented with a document stating "This vehicle is being sold AS-IS AS-SHOWN. It has not received a full point mechanical inspection. We recommend you have it inspected by a mechanic of your own. We assume there are mechanical and electrical concerns on this vehicle that we are unaware of. No Warranty is assumed or implied." This was posted as the 2nd photo of the vehicle online and also in the window of the vehicle on the lot. On another form you signed, it said the following: NO ONLINE OR INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING RECOURSE In purchasing this vehicle, I understand if I become unhappy with the condition, mechanical failures, or any other concerns, I will not submit a report to the BBB, or any other reporting agencies. I will also refrain from using online or Social Media platforms to air grievances. This vehicle does not fall under the normal standards or reputation that Schimmer Inc is built on. Lastly, you admittedly had the wrong vehicle in mind when you told Angie "we knew about problems because this was an employee owned vehicle", only to then say it must have been a different car, not this one you purchased that was employee owned. While it is only human nature to be frustrated in your situation, we literally requested you not purchase the vehicle if you were uncomfortable taking on the risk of a vehicle in our budget center. I don't know what else we could have done to alert you or educate you. This review is not a fair representation of our company or your experience. I know because I'm the one that spoke to you and asked you not to purchase it if you had any reservations. Feel free to call me if you'd like to discuss further.

ALL the employees we met at Shimmer, while searching for a vehicle we’re very kind and helpful. We feel they bent over backwards to meet our needs. It ended up that we did not purchase a vehicle from them. More
