Had a real issue with their internet pricing and actual pricing. Difference of +$6,500 isn’t something you should hope your online customers should figure out for themselves. A 2021 Atlas advertised at MSR pricing. Difference of +$6,500 isn’t something you should hope your online customers should figure out for themselves. A 2021 Atlas advertised at MSRP $42,375 minus dealer discount $5,177 = $37,198. Less than an hour after I requested an out the door price the “dealer discount” disappears from the online listed price and I get an email with MSRP $48,900 because “price for add ons could not be listed because the computer won’t let us and the computer automatically gets the MSRP from(not clear where) and we can’t change it.” That sounds like some shady double talk to me. Of course they cover themselves by having a tiny disclosure that you have to click to find saying they’re not responsible for “errors” in pricing. Now I’d like to give them the benefit of the doubt and think it was a error in marketing/someone doesn’t know how to use the computer; and not a deliberate bait and switch. But the fact that it’s still listed at $42,375 and no dealer discount applied is suspect. This original dealer discount of $5,177 just happened 2 days ago so somebody must have looked at this deal and thought the advertisement was correct. In a time where we are forced to be online customers due to COVID you’d think Charles Maund Volkswagen would be more transparent with their pricing. Going to try Hewlett Georgetown, cross my fingers. I reached out to Daniel Bobadilla But didn’t respond . Worked with William Cole but I don’t blame him. I feel he was honest and upfront with me. #charlesmaundvolkswagen #volkswagen #bemoretransparent be More
