Call me stupid. - Karol
Call me stupid. 4th time buying car here. Current loan was with Mazda for 4.96. Did not get pre approved before going so first mistake. Trading Mazda 3 turbo 3 years NO damage 14,000 miles. Second mistake. Just getting older annd it was harder to get out of it. Wanted a car to retire in. I have a HIGH credit score (800+) with little debt. Found a CX5 that drove just okay (nothing like my Mazda 3. Came down to the negotiation. The man Told me the best rate he could get me was 5.99.(lie) I told him my current rate and said that 5.99 was crazy. I tried to leave. He said rates are going up next month. And I could refinance with envision CU for no fees. (Lie). Stupid me went through with it. Before I left one of the guys said “we are so excited because they won’t send us any Mazda 3 turbos”. Totally did not tell me that before so screwed me there. About 6 months later after not receiving “denial letters” from where he ran my credit I looked at my credit report and noticed only ONE hit. Which means he Only ran credit through Mazda financial. Wonder how much incentive he got for my loan with Mazda. MAD!! But told myself I just have to live with it. NOW I receive notice that I now have to pay $10 to use the Mazda app to be able to crank my car, lock my doors, etc. WHAT????? Was not told that. Had my other Mazda car for 3 years and NEVER had to pay to use the app for my Mazda car. They DID not tell me this wasn’t free and I would only have a years trail. That would have been the deciding factor. I would have left with my car keeping my lower interest rate and without being screwed. Yes. Call me stupid because I’ve been calling myself that for a year. I’m so mad at myself because I am now owe 10,000 more than what this car is worth. Mazda depreciates that much because the cars engines are horrible. NEVER again will I buy a Mazda especially from this dealership. Buyer beware. I’m gonna pay it down as fast as I can so I can trade this car in. I will NOT retire in this car. I have called Mazda corporate and will continue until someone listens.
