Some clowns at Bayside Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of King - Rosco
Some clowns at Bayside Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of King George. On 14 Sep 26 I went to Bayside CDJR and started looking for used cars for my daughter. Something cheap and fairly reliable. I noticed a decent car I was interested in, went on a test drive with Matthew Gladmon (Great guy, liked him a lot as far as car dealers go). Talked with the finance manager to see what we could do with on a price, they knocked a little bit off. I said I’ll think it over. Went home looked over the provided CarFax, did a little research. I saw what common issues were and what the manufacturer service schedule is. I called a dealership in Manassas and got a quote with what it would be to get the vehicle caught up on maintenance, since Bayside would not do the service there. It wasn’t a brand they sold, no big deal I understand. On 18 Sep 26 I stopped in with money in hand hoping to make a deal. Total price for vehicle service was $1700 quoted from dealership in Manassas. I was hoping for a bit of a lower price (I even told them I wasn’t looking to get the price of, something we both could be happy with) due to price of 100K service, which if the service is done on time (already at 109K miles) it greatly increases the chance of not having to deal with higher priced repairs. 1. I was called a liar (indirectly) but they didn’t want to call Manassas to confirm price. 2. All I was told was how competitively priced the vehicle was within a 200-mile radius. Alot more goes into my consideration then year, price and milage...you know, like sticking to the scheduled maintenance. 3. I was told they couldn’t possibly go any lower because they were already losing 1,400. That seems like they made a bad deal.... Now I have come to find out that the vehicle is 500 lower than the lowest price they would go for me. They got 2 stars, one for Matthew and one for the finance guy I talked to on the 14th. I talked to a different guy on the 18th and he was absolute clown. I guess I should have kissed up more to him for giving me the chance to buy a car from him. I really would like to name drop but I can’t remember his name. If anyone gets anything out of this review its "please do your due diligence when buying used cars" it can hopefully save you big headaches down the road. Oh, and no one has contacted me saying they lowered the price on the car either.
