Apparently I don't learn very quickly. - swilliams
Apparently I don't learn very quickly. Today was my third terrible experience with the Deery Brothers family of dealers. First time I went to look at a Honda Pilot that had "no issues". When I got there you could see the hail damage down half the vehicle, there was pet hair buried in the carpet, and apparently the previous owners dogs had destroyed all the weather stripping on the doors.
Second time was a Subaru Outback that I again asked very specific questions about the condition before I drove to see it. There was not one panel on the car that didn't have some kind of paint or body issue, and the B pillars were rusty on both sides.
Today I went to pick up a Mazda CX5 that I knew had some issues, but I felt like the price was good enough to take a chance. Had a purchase agreement written up by the dealer and borrowed the money from my bank. Drove 45 minutes to pick it up and the told me there was an issue because someone was out test driving it. I figured it was an honest mistake so I told them we would wait and then give them the check. They clarified that since these other people were test driving, If they wanted to purchase the car they could. I lost it and said some choice words as we walked out the door. 15 minutes later I got a text saying there was a mix up and the other people didn't take the car. Would I come back? xxxx no. It's poetic justice and I hope you lose money on the sale of what was likely a turd anyway. I don't know what has happened to dealerships in the country but I feel like the con artists at Deery are the rule more than the exception.
