Thank you for letting us know. We do not negotiate on our doc fee, most dealers in Atlanta charge a doc fee. Thank you for your purchase.

So then the price you advertise should reflect the 799. Doc fee. Then people would know before they try a deal with y’all.

One more thing. I have had the car less than a week and it’s already showing a light that says need maintenance. Does this mean while the supposedly out it through 190 point inspection,which they said they did, that they didn’t change the oil? I hope this is the maintenance issue. I change my review to a 1

Mr. Strickland we spoke several times last week while we waited for transport. I explained to you the current issue, we are waiting on a part. You called our VP same response as you received from me. We believe we are doing the right thing for you by repairing the vehicle before we deliver it. We apologize for the lack of parts, unfortunately this is the current climate we live in today. I will be contacting you this afternoon to see if you would like to reschedule the delivery or if you would like to pick up

On 12/5/2022 you stated: We will review the issues you have listed. We look forward to resolving them swiftly. You have NOT resolved the issue nor have you returned phone calls or emails. As stated in other reviews, this is a common theme. Resolving my issue swiftly should not take over 3 months and again, I expect someone to look into the matter and resolve this error.
