Crane Chevrolet participates in the DealerRater.com Certified Dealer Program as we are are committed to providing high quality customer service. Based on the review you posted it would seem as you did not share that experience. That is very disappointing to us, and I would like to clarify what actually happend in this instance and we hope this resolves your issue and that you edit your comment accordingly. It is the policy of this dealership to return deposits ONLY to the individual who the deal is written for - in this case your girlfriend. She is the only person who could get the deposit back. We cannot give a deposit back to someone she sends in unless she is with them and that was not what happened here. When she contacted the dealership she stated that she changed her mind on the vehicle that she wanted to buy, even though we spent money and performed a list of work she asked to be done on the vehicle before she picked it up. During this phone call she asked if we had any other vehicles that would be more suitable to her wants. We told her that we had some other vehicles coming in and if she would like to come in and see them she could, If they weren't to her liking we would refund her deposit. When she came in several days later, she was shown several vehicles and after thinking about them for a while she decided to ask for her money back. At which time a check request was submitted to the office and a check was written and signed then handed to her. Did she have to wait for an authorized signature to sign the check? Yes she did, but she came into the dealership and was given her deposit back. We do not hold customer deposits if they are not buying the vehicle. This is not how we do business. We have been in business, family owned and operated since 1914. You don't stay in business that long if you don't treat people fairly. We regret any missunderstandings you may have had if you were asked by your friend to come pick up her deposit. As I mentioned above we did not know who you were and she was not with you to authorize us to give you her deposit back so we cannot give it to anyone but her. Your friend was given 100% of her deposit back after she decided that the other vehicles we had here did not meet her needs. If you have any questions please feel free to contact one of the managers here at Crane Chevrolet. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to a retraction of your negative comments on this matter.
