For some reason my review was taken down. But I will share it again to warn against the horrifying experience that occurred here.
It was January 2020. We were looking for a van as we had a baby on the way. We picked one out and started the buying process. Of course with any car buying there is negotiating. They start out very low on my car for trade in, which was almost insulting. But we got it up to a decent price and took off some from the van after. Good, no down payment, reasonable monthly, I was fine. We get ready to sign papers. This is where things turn bad. They were asking questions about family or friends living in different counties because it could get us a better deal. No, just keep the deal we agreed on. But it continued to go back and forth then they stick us in the waiting room for close to 4 hours!! I was ready to cancel the deal and go as we've been there over 6 hours now with no communication as to how much longer. Finally they take us back, we sign and we go.
Now a week later I get mail from the finance company that we did not qualify for the loan. So we are not financed and have this car. They told us during signing that the bank was closed (waiting 6 hours I'm sure for that to happen) but the finance manager had a friend there that was putting things through to get the deal moving (clearly not true). MIG calls me a couple days later that they have a better deal for me to call them back. I was on night shift so I didn't pick up. But they called me almost every 30 minutes. Texting me, leaving voicemail about this time sensitive deal. I text them after I got up that I'll call them the next day. I already knew that this deal of a life time was false that they didn't have any finances on this car and have my trade in that has a lien still. I go in the morning and the sales man wanted me to pretend that his mom was my mom so I could get financed with Wright Pratt due to requirement of living in county where one is located. Clearly this is fraud so I've now lost all intrest in doing business. I tell them there is no financing and im not signing anything else because of them trying to get me to commit fraud. The sales manager comes out and I tell him this and he tells me I misheard him that there was just a typo and we need to sign new papers. I refused and asked for my car back and they can have the van back. They told me they already sold it. I told them that it still has the lien and financed with me. I showed them my bank that shows no payments have been made there is a payment due. So I asked nicely for the keys and ill be on my way. They continued to say they sold it and there's no way to get it back. I said fine, I'll report it stollen and they can keep the van cause it's not mine and I'm not committing fraud to cover their mistakes. The sales manager starts screaming at me that they will see me in court. I go outside to call in a stolen car and they come out to talk me down that they will prove that it was sold fair and square. They took me to their title department and asked the lady about the title for my car. She said they can't get it that there is a lien since finance didn't get approved. Since I heard her say this they argued with me for over an hour that I was required to sign new papers or I could be the one responsible for this since now they are attempting to get proper finances. I think I was there for an hour after this trying to work things out. Finally we came to an agreement with a different, local bank and they lowered the price a lot more and practically paid off the loan to my trade in before I would sign anything.
By far this was the worst experience of my life and I will continue to warn people about the illegal and shady stuff that happened here. Even if it was 4 years ago and my original post is not up any longer. It must still be known.
