Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're thrilled that your vehicle purchase itself went well, but we're very sorry to hear about the frustration you experienced during the financing process. We understand your concerns regarding your pre-approved financing through your credit union and the impact that additional credit inquiries may have had on your loan terms and monthly payment. We recognize how upsetting it can be when expectations are not met, especially when you had already secured financing and believed the process was complete. Your feedback is important to us, and we apologize for any confusion or inconvenience caused. We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention, as it helps us identify opportunities to improve communication and ensure our customers' financing preferences are clearly understood and respected. Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing us. We value your business and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience moving forward.
