Martin Auto Group responded

The purchaser of the vehicle refused to sign a contract for whatever reason to lock in his rate and rebates against dealership advice on the last 2010 DTS vehicle in stock, instead just opting to leave a deposit. So we have no control over the changing financial offers from GM corporate, and are just a franchised dealer. When you leave your options open, at times it can cost you financially. We endeavored to make the customer the best possible deal at the time. Since this matter is only 48hrs old, we just request a bit of patience as a refund of the deposit is already being processed through our business office and we did not have the personnel at the time to expedite this matter. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but we have no control over a customers purchasing decisions and their subsequent consequences.‎ The Customers own personal response from another review site. Rather then just delete this review, I thought I would update it to give an honest follow up. After the above occured, the following day their General Manager, who really is the head person at Martin called me to find put what had occured. He immediately agreed that at worst, I should have been offered my deposit back quickly, not told by their finance women that had told me "she was going to keep it as long as she could." However, he honestly wanted to find out why this had occured and told me that he would follow up with all concerned and call me back later. He called back at least 2 additional times that day and the bottom line was that their finance women had made a serious mistake in approving a deal that was not possible to do. She failed to check out a rebate deal that I had asked about, and had approved the deal without properly checking on its validity. It was not a valid current rebate that I had asked about prior to making the deal. When I went to pick up the car, they had found the error and instead of telling me about the mistake and offering my deposit back, tried the sales run around at the higher price I mentioned above. However, I have to give the overall dealership and especially their general manager a vote of confidence for both his honesty and willingness to take care of their own mistakes. He agreed to honor rhe original deal, and in fact they did take a real loss on the sale at that deal. I picked up the car yesterday at the original deal price. So I don't now believe that it was anything intentional. It was in fact an honest mistake, but they compounded it by trying to sell the lie instead of just admitting the mistake. I'm intentionally not using the GM's name because he may nto want it published, but he's a stand up guy and he's been with Martin for 40 years. I feel I owe it to him to at least update this review

The customer left a deposit, but didn't SIGN any paperwork before leaving. Then when he returned the rebates and specials changed, so the cost of the car had risen due to the manufacturer. He was advised to BUY the car that day to lock in the rates and rebates. He chose to play out his options to see if he could get an even BETTER deal when he got back, but lost. The GM called him the next day and sold him the car at a loss to us of 3,000 dollars due to his past history with our dealership. Sady he had already proceeded the previous day to defame us on every website he could find. He is happy now, we are out 3,000 and are slandered online for the trouble. Sometimes you just can't win :o)
