We are extremely sorry Mr. Donaldson feels the way he does. We strive to please everyone, but sometimes fail. I will address Mr. Donaldson's complaints in order. He received a quote the first day he was here, but it did in fact take about three days to get an approval on his deal from a bank. We did get to his price, but the call back from the bank did not let us get to his desired payment, though we hoped and tried to acheive it. William called Mr. Donaldson numerous times before he came in, and was waiting for finance to get an approval on the deal to give him the callback to come in and finish up. When Mr. Donaldson called us, we were only able to tell him we were still trying to get an approval. When Mr. Donaldson did come in, the finance offices were full. We typically do not like to discuss interest rates and payment on the floor in earshot of other customers. We did not put Mr. Donaldson in the car so he would fall in love with it. That is not a practice at this dealership. We put him in the car at his request as he wanted to check it out at the shop in which he works. We were trying to accomodate him. Mr. Donaldson did not have to demand his keys back. He asked for them and was given them upon request. We did care about him and his deal. We worked on it for three days, but were hampered by issues in the deal. This is not uncommon.We don't know why he was offerred such a better rate at BMW. We can only speculate. However, we do have the callbacks from the bank, and Mr. Donaldson is welcome to review them. Tiffany called Mr. Donaldson and asked him to modify his post so that we would not have to touch on certain issues publicly in order to respond to the complaint. She did not ask him to remove it. She at no time threatened to put his credit information on this website. She used the phrase about her children not in threatening to post his information, but in response to his accusation that we had not worked on his deal. She only puts her children on the truth, and we worked and worked on the banks in attepmt to get the payment where he wanted it. We offerred to show him all the communication we had with the banks and all their callbacks. Dealerships are not the lenders. They secure the financing from various banks for the consumer. Rates and speed of approval are determined by the customer's credit. We will turn no one away without trying to get financing for them, regardless of credit, and are proud of that. We view every complaint as an opportunity to improve and learn. But we will continue to try to get everyone approved, even if it takes days.

I would have given this dealership a great rating if I didn't have to pressure the sales/service team members to get something done. We bought a used Honda Odyssey on a late rainy Saturday evening. More

Internet pricing here, and every other Honda dealer in the Houston market, is base pricing, and does not include destination, tax, title and license, or any dealer installed options. I'm assuming that this was not made clear to you, though it is disclosed on the internet quote sheets. Your husband did mention that you had to drive over 15 minutes to get here, and for that I sincerely apologize. Delano Palmer, our general sales manager, has left a message asking that you contact him in order to get this resolved. Thank you for the feedback, it will serve only to make us better. We're just sorry that we lost a customer through our process. We are actively working to improve the very issue you have with us.

I have looked over all the communication received from you and spoken with all the people involved. Originally you were quoted a car that we communicated to you was not in stock. You then asked for prices on various other cars. You asked for driveout price, but due to the fact that we communicated with you over a two week period starting at the beginning of December and you told us you were not purchasing until the end of the year, it's difficult to nail down a driveout.We don't know what we'll have in stock two months in the future. That's why we stated you'd have to add TT&l. The quotes we gave you were on the models you requested, some of which we made clear we did not have, with no dealer ads, since you said you would be willing to order a vehicle. when you did come in, we had to add tt&l, plus the dealer installed options on the car you finally picked out.Certainly Nicholas should have called you, and for that, as well as the rest of your experience, I apologize. we strive to be as accurate as possible when quoting prices, I think the switching of vehicles and the disparity of the time you were requesting prices versus when you told us you were planning on buying caused a bit of confusion. however, it;s our job to handle that confusion, and we clearly failed. We are deeply sorry and hope that we may be able to make it up to you in the future. Feel free to call me, Delano, at any time. Thank you.
