Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to be of service to you and for taking the time to provide feedback. We sincerely apologize that your vehicle was not prepared to our usual standards of cleanliness and fuel levels upon your arrival, and we understand how frustrating it was to have to make an immediate stop on your way home. It is also concerning to hear about your experience regarding the pressure you felt during the financial portion of your purchase. We strive for transparency and professionalism in our sales process, and your comments have been noted for internal review. We appreciate you bringing these specific details to our attention as it helps us evaluate our delivery and negotiation procedures to better serve our valued customers.
