My girlfriend and I came to the dealer on July 3rd and settled on a car and price with the salesman she applied for loan through Toyota but wasn't able to get approved we went to credit union on the 5th a settled on a car and price with the salesman she applied for loan through Toyota but wasn't able to get approved we went to credit union on the 5th and got loan for the amount agreed upon and returned to dealership, spoke to same the same sales guy and he told us that the only way we could get the car was if we paid 2500 more than what was agreed upon 2 days prior. I asked him why the price can not be honored and he first said there was a different sales manager who wouldn't let him do it so I asked to speak with the first guy that he had spoke with on the 3rd, he then went to the back and came back and said that the reason they cannot do the original price is because someone already put money down on the car but if it fell through he would get back to us and let us know that the car was available. They emailed back today saying that he deal fell through and that the car is now available and he included the price that they would take and it was 500 more than they told us the second time and also higher than the posted Internet price! I responded back and gave phone number asking to have general manager call us back and haven't heard back yet.... More

Absolutely horrible and insulting experience they can't take negotiation and a little level headed common sense from the customer without yelling at the customer and getting to the point of refusing can't take negotiation and a little level headed common sense from the customer without yelling at the customer and getting to the point of refusing to sell a car to me! Total waste of time buyer beware this place is joke ran by a bunch of crooks!!' Customer service and RESPECT is the LEAST of their concern!!! More
I called Vandergriff after receiving a letter and some vouchers. I initially tried to explain my situation over the phone and hoped to get a sense of whether it would valuable to come in at this time or p vouchers. I initially tried to explain my situation over the phone and hoped to get a sense of whether it would valuable to come in at this time or perhaps wait for my credit to improve. This was my 1st mistake: to expect that the salesman might answer a question in any way other than "buy a new car." I understand that the salesman's job is to sell cars but there should also be some concern for the needs of the customer. I had a 2009 Prius and was paying an 8.5% rate on the loan. I knew that new rates were low so I thought there might be a slim possibility of actually lowering my payment by getting a new car. The vouchers I received suggested that that might be possibility. A couple of the offers were 0% rates for 6 years and 90 days of no payments. These things were not offered to me even though these hooks were used to lure me into the store. The salesman showed me a pre-owned but very nice car and we began to deal. My goal coming in was to possibly improve my budget situation. I tried to explain that but I am not sure that mattered to him. The initial offer, $700, would have raised my payment by $283. There was no way I could do that. From our previous conversation it is unbelievable to me that they would even make such an offer. I now believe that it was not a serious offer but that it was used to make all the susequent offers look spectacular. I said that it looked as if we would be able to do business today. They then asked if they could get it to $430 would I accept. I reluctantly said yes. They came back with $469. I said no. They proposed $420 but then came back with $439. I accepted this after much conversation. It seemed like a great deal but I should have honored my budget. I accepted it. When I went to sign the loan another $20 was added on to cover gap insurance. I feel like such a fool today. And I am concerned about my already tight budget. I may have made a great deal on the car but realizing that the 1st offer was bogus I am not sure if it was so great. Whatever the the deal kight have been I did not make a great deal for myself. I realize it is my fault for being caught up in it and I allowed myself to focus on the deal rather than my budget. As I left from signing the papers the finance agent wanted to make sure he could reach me by phone on Tuesday (the next day the banks open). There was almost an implication that there might be a change in the loan. So now I am worried about that. (I did not get a call so I guess everything is OK.) Vandergriff utilizes the car selling techniques that so often make people hate car salesmen. I sat for long periods of time. They took my car keys in order to inspect it for the trade-in but did not return them so I could not leave. In my profession I charge people for the time. My time is valuable. I am also a father and that time is also valuable. They had no regard for my time. In the coiurse of the dealings they focused on the great deal when I needed to be focused on the payment. I was constantly told that I was upside down on my old car and needed to get out from that. I then had to buy gap insurance because I am already upside on the new one. All that talk about being upside down was a complete ruse. I don't think Vandergriff respected my intentions as a customer, they did not respect the value of my time (I was there 5 hours), and I do not think they respected me as a person. I will not go back. I will not recommend Vandergriff to anyone else. More
