Catonsville Mazda - A Disastrous Experience! I recently had the misfortune of dealing with Catonsville Mazda, and I feel compelled to share my experience to warn others. Initially, I was told I recently had the misfortune of dealing with Catonsville Mazda, and I feel compelled to share my experience to warn others. Initially, I was told by the sale person, the finance person and a manager that I would be getting the advertised financing rate of 3.99%. Which was high considering in 2020 I got my car at a 0% rate. When I finalized the deal the finance person shot thru the paperwork on this computerized desk telling me I was getting 3.99% but putting 6.24% on the form of a million pages that no one reads. I guess I needed to read each line and bring my calculator to check their honesty. This bait-and-switch tactic is not only misleading but downright fraudulent. To make matters worse, the process of trading in my old vehicle was a nightmare. Despite assurances that my previous car loan would be paid off quickly, I ended up being charged an extra payment for my old car—something that Catonsville Mazda still owes me for. The lack of organization and accountability was astounding. Throughout this ordeal, I had to deal with multiple managers, none of whom seemed capable of resolving the issues at hand. It was a series of disasters that left me frustrated and disappointed. I can refinance with my credit union for the rate I wanted but its principle, this was FRAUDULENCE! I strongly advise anyone considering Catonsville Mazda to think twice. My experience was filled with dishonesty and incompetence, and I sincerely hope others can avoid the same fate. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere! More
