Fletcher Jones Salesman is pushy, lier, deals fraudulently. My wife and I were at Fletcher Jones October 4, 2008. My wife found a car that she liked with most of the amenities she wanted. Dani fraudulently. My wife and I were at Fletcher Jones October 4, 2008. My wife found a car that she liked with most of the amenities she wanted. Daniel DiConti appreared to be very helpful and then became very pushy. I told him that I would do my research to find out what the car was worth to me. I called him back the next day, made an offer with a trade in and he kept insisting that I come back to work out the deal. I live over an hour away and I told him I don't wish to waste his time or mine or be haggled unless we had a deal. After that I had numerous phone calls from different associates, one of them being Ed Cohan trying to talk me into meeting with me at Fletcher Jones in Newport Beach. I advised them all of my deal and that there was no reason for me to travel an hour+ unless we had a deal. Finally, on Sunday October 19th, I emailed Daniel DiConti and told him about all the people that had contacted me and told him that if he still had the car and agreed to my deal I would drive down. Tuesday October 20th at night I got a call from his assistant by the name of Blake who told me that Daniel wants me to come down and finalize the deal as it is getting to the end of the month. I asked Blake to make sure the car was still available and upon checking with Danielle confirmed that it was. I told him that I would be there on Wednesday the 21st at 3:00 pm and he said they would be waiting for me with the car. On Wednesday at about 11:30 am I called Blake to ask if I could meet with them around 1:30 PM. He checked with Daniel and said that would be great. I got there at about 1:30. While I was looking for the car on the F.J. lot Daniel came towards me and said "you won't believe it we just sold it, but we have plenty of other cars to choose from" I advised him that Blake told me the car was being held for me. The least that should have been done was to contact me, so that I would not have to leave work wasting time, and money. I honestly feel this was a very dishonest and fraudulent way of doing business. As a matter of fact the Better Business Bureau should be involved to check on this dealership. This is not the way to treat potential customers, or do business. More
Fletcher Jones and Ramin Arian are crooks! I had the adsolutly worst experience I could have had with purchasing a car. I have phenomenal credit and am easily able to afford and expensive vehicle. Ramin adsolutly worst experience I could have had with purchasing a car. I have phenomenal credit and am easily able to afford and expensive vehicle. Ramin Arian who's an xxx and a sexist pig continued to make sexual remarks and financial comments about me when i was emailing him back and forth while negotiating for the car. I explained to him i was interested in the car and would much rather he refrain from sexual comments. Ramin stopped and I visited the dealership to view the vehicle he promised he had. When I arrived the vehicle was not in stock. He explained that someone was bringing it for him and if i wanted to grab a drink..I said no! i left the dealership with no car and feeling that i was tricked into going to the dealership for Ramin Arian to sexually harass me and take advantage of me...Fletcher Jones should be ashamed to have employees like that! I bught my car from Anaheim Mercedes the next day!! More
Service department is highway robbery. I brought in my out of warranty Mercedes for scheduled service. They came back to me with a long list of other items that needed service totaling about $2000. I sa out of warranty Mercedes for scheduled service. They came back to me with a long list of other items that needed service totaling about $2000. I said no thanks and took instead to an independent shop. They charged me a total of less than $500 for all same items. I expected it to be a lot cheaper but, but not this. I was suspicious when FJ quoted me $400 to replace a fuel filter and $200 for a rear shifter bushing which only costs $1.75 plus 30 minutes labor. Of course I had no idea what these things should cost, but it didn't sound right to me. Am I glad I followed my instincts. This kind of price gouging of unsuspecting customers is simply unethical. BTW, the shop I went to is Coast MBZ in Costa Mesa. John is a really nice guy and very fair in his practices. Tell him Terry sent ya. More
Fletcher Jones gave us a really aggressive "ballpark" quote over the phone on a specific car we wanted and added they could do even better if we came in. They assured us they were the only ones who had t quote over the phone on a specific car we wanted and added they could do even better if we came in. They assured us they were the only ones who had this model/color combo in SoCal so they would have the best price. We drove 1+hr to go to Newport to find out: 1) they did not have the car on the lot and 2) their actual quote was actually $150+/month over what they said on the phone. These cars are pricey and $150/month may not seem much to some out there, but it is to us. And the fact that they insisted on us putting the effort to go all the way to Newport, just for us to find out that they lied about everything they said on the phone, really upset us enough to write this review. Don't waste your time like we did. There are more honest and easier to work with Mercedes dealers out there who can give you a better deal. More
