Frustrating, Unprofessional Experience I visited this dealership on June 11, 2016. There was a used Frontier which perked my interest. At first, everything seemed fine. I was pre-app I visited this dealership on June 11, 2016. There was a used Frontier which perked my interest. At first, everything seemed fine. I was pre-approved with Capital One. I asked the dealer if they accepted Capital One financing. Three separate employees, including the Sales Manager, told me yes. One employee stated that they not only accepted Capital One financing, but that they could get me an even better rate. I am well aware that interest rates are largely dependent on my credit score. Capital One, after entering all of the truck's information, quoted me at a rate of 7 - 8%. After we agreed on a price, the salesperson told me to go relax at home, and he would call me when the financing paperwork was ready. I was super excited, and ready to purchase. The salesperson later told us to arrive at 3:00 PM. We showed up at 3:00 PM (on our anniversary, mind you), and were seated in a waiting room. Our salesperson told us that he would be leaving at 4:00 PM, but that the rest of the staff would take good care of us. I've never had a salesperson leave me before finalizing a purchase. It just seemed unprofessional - that should have been a sign of what was to come. The Finance Manager called us to her office at around 4:15 PM, but only after trashing the last customer she spoke to. I was appalled, but tried to ignore her rude nature. When we sat down with the Finance Manger, she quickly jumped to a 72 month payment proposal, at a rate 3 - 4% higher than what Capital One had quoted us. I asked what had happened with our Capital One application, and she told me that the dealership does not use Capital One, after three separate employees had told me otherwise. She went on to say that she had been doing this a very long time, and that this is the best rate we are going to get. We walked away from the deal. Our salesperson promptly texted us. He asked if everything was alright. I said no. I was pissed that three separate employees had lied to us, and that the Finance Manager hadn't even tried to process our Capital One pre-approval, as if we were just supposed to settle for her proposal because she allegedly knows best. I was then told that he would get us our quoted rate. I told him I know that some of this comes down to our scores. He adamantly declared, again, that he would get us our original rate. I began to feel a little better, even though we had wasted much of our anniversary on a dead end deal. Three days later, the salesperson texted me. He said that the rate offered was the best that they were going to be able to do. He dropped it to the dealership's buy rate, which was a fraction of a percent lower than what the Finance Manager had offered us. The only difference was they decided not to mark up the rate that their bank had offered them. I asked if he had tried to process the Capital One pre-approval. They still had not. I, again, was being told to settle for a rate that was 3 - 4 % higher than a quote I had in front of me. The salesperson tried to reassure me that I was receiving a good deal because he is the owner's son. I felt as though flaunting that was a bit inappropriate, and like he was trying to turn this into a pissing contest. I wouldn't have been so offended if they had just tried to process the pre-approval, but they have refused to even try. I affirmed with Capital One that any dealer can submit an application to them. They must be receiving a kickback from Wells Fargo. Why else would there be hesitance to save your customer potentially 3 - 4%, and complete a sale? I was ready to buy, if they had just tried. They're just being greedy. This place is willing to say anything to try to make a sale. I can picture them trying to tell me they submitted an application to Capital One, just to shut me up so I'd maybe settle for their rate. Even if they fixed this, I wouldn't be able to trust them again. It's too bad for them - I trade in a vehicle every three years. If they had treated me right, they could have made some money off of me. The Sales Manager said he would call me yesterday, and that he didn't know why they just won't run the application. He never called back. More

Jill Reyor I couldn't ask for better service than I received. Everyone that I dealt with was friendly and went above and beyond what was required. My car was eve I couldn't ask for better service than I received. Everyone that I dealt with was friendly and went above and beyond what was required.
