Good or Bad.
I was told several times that I was approved, "Don't worry!" I explained I was leaving the next day for Michigan. "No problem!" While in MI I was called several times on my cell phone and the stern voice on my voicemail informed me that I had to return the truck, "Today, because your credit is not good enough for approval..."
I've sold cars(#1 in Sales, quit when they pressured me to lie), so I was aware that another $1,000.00 or so down would make the the bank feel better. That's what happened.
I asked how much more, and was told $2,000.00, which I sent them. # years later they did the same thing to my Bro. in Law. 1 year later, they tried to do it to his stepson, and I was able to warn him in time that it is a scam they practice, because the banks reward them when they get more money up front. Once he mentioned that his lawyer would call them back to discuss the details, the salesperson said, "Let me check again with my manager." Whaddayaknow? They did NOT have to have $1,000's more! Suddenly they could work with what he'd given them. This is illegal! Maxwell Dodge's Sales Dept. is deceptive! When I took the truck for service, I waited outside for 10 minutes while the guys inside jawed around. I finally went in, only to be ignored for another 5 minutes, while they finished telling guy stories.
What a dealership! I took my truck elsewhere for ALL of my service.

Very stressful, pressure filled buying experience. Definitely will not go through this dealership again. Had to go to the top (Director of Finance) to finalize the deal - horrors!
