Appreciate the feedback. Biggest Pet peeve and something that appears to be plaguing all businesses, shear laziness. I can't stand it! We talk about it constantly and unfortunately had to let quite a few people go because they just want to bury their face in their phone or computer. We will continue to stay on top of this and I appreciate you taking the time to express your observation. -Justin Harmon (General Manager)

Really helps that Cory has been in virtually every customer facing position in a dealership including but not limited to sales manager and service advisor. Very happy to see that his background has helped him with his execution. Running in 1st place in his first full month and happy to see it. Thank you Dejour for taking the time to highlight the experience and appreciate the opportunity to earn your business. -Justin Harmon (General Manager)

The car buying experience was streamlined and buyer friendly. I was helped with my financing and trade in vehicle. I would recommend and buy again at Bob Caldwell. More

I do not like getting ripped off by a dealer’s service department. Then insult to injury..trying to charge me 3% for using my credit card. More

Ya, we understand the frustration and apologize that a processing charge is not appreciated. There is a common misconception that car dealers make tons of money and "rip" people off. The average Chrysler dealer this year makes less than 1% net as percentage of sales. In fact, an overwhelming amount of Chrysler dealers (approximately 30%) are not profitable this year. When you put that into perspective that technicians need years of training, several 10s of thousands in tools, 100s of thousands of dollars in equipment to fix vehicles the margins are not as great as perceived. That said, we have a choice of raising our $175 door rate (which by the way is one of the lowest in Columbus) or cut costs. Where just 5 years ago we were paying approximately $7000-$8000 in merchant fees, most recently our average monthly fees exceed $12,000 per month in credit card fees. The processing companies might be an area where the average consumer should shift their frustration. There is no surcharge on cash or debit cards. We have sent out several emails, posted the surcharge around the dealership, and it also is displayed on our website. Many folks use their credit cards to gain points, flights, cash back, etc...and they can continue to do so. For those that have limited funds available we also offer a payment plan that does not have a surcharge so there are many additional options. We did our research to ensure that a lofty percentage of retail operations have a similar surcharge (again only on credit cards). This is our way to make sure the business can still survive and we can pay our hard working employees the income that they deserve. I again apologize that you do not see it this way Sts970 but I think you will find we are not the only ones and understand why we do it. -Justin Harmon (General Manager)

Great selection of new and used vehicles. Customer service was awesome. Corey was with us all the way on meeting our goals and Tim made all the paperwork signing flyby! More

Makes perfect sense. This is Cory's 1st full month here at Bob Caldwell and he already has 7 vehicles sold in the 1st 6 days. Incredible to see and it will definitely give the rest of the veterans something to think about. Very fortunate to have him aboard and thank you Mickey for showing that much more value that Cory brings to the table. Have a great week and thank you for the review and the business! -Justin Harmon (General Manager)
