I really didn't care about the accident - it bothered me more that Joe was lying. Why? When I pointed out that the tires on the vehicle were unsafe (there was a gash on the front right tire sidewall that I could get two fingers in and the tread on all four was low) Joe asked the sales manager (Larry) to take a look at them. Larry assured me that the tires were fine. Fine? So we go in Joe's office to talk numbers - I ask to include a new set of tires because the tires are not safe. They offer to replace the one tire. I say - no deal and walk. Another salesman grabs me as I walk out to my car. What happened? he asks. I told them they wanted too much money and refused to fix an existing problem - he told me he would go to work for me and give me a call. He calls me (I live 145 miles from the dealership) two days later and says - if we can do this number and four new tires are you interested? If we can do that number and new tires (good new tires) it's a deal. He says it's a deal, he asks me give him five days to order new tires and get the truck detailed. Four days later, I get a voicemail that says... Oh, that car sold last night. I call down to ask xxx - the salesman wont pick up the phone - all day. I talk to a customer service person, and she tells me "There must be some confusion - that car is here and still available." xxx. I get another call from Joe Augelli, "No that car sold - why didn't you put money down?" I did the deal with another guy over the phone Joe from 145 miles away. He transfers me to Larry - the sales manager. Larry and I go round and round - finally he gets frustrated enough to tell me flat out, "I got 500 dollars more from another guy and he didn't need new tires - that's business." I said Larry, that's BAD business. Please avoid these shadesters - there are plenty of negative posts on these guys - I guess I thought they would be different. More
