If this message is indeed from Checkered Flag, it will be interesting to see just how long it takes to look into the detailed events as you responded. So far, these unethical events have been covered up in the hopes that the public will just forget about them and not question the way people do business in this town and disrespect the brands they represent. I know how Checkered Flag responds which is why I posted this in the first place to alert the public of the unethical rating boosters, deceitful tactics and cover ups this place employs and the things sales people and even management will do. Who trains this staff? Sales considers this ok and then a manger who is supposed to do the right thing replies to the post like he doesn’t even know the person is on their sales team. Not to mention it is during a time of complaints and low ratings. Furthermore, even contacting the owner of this company ignored things. Guess everyone is too busy rebranding and concentrating on the new buildings to distract people from noticing the lack of integrity. After a month of looking into it, you think we would see a post as to the outcome by now. After all, all you have to do is pull the Google reviews of these two as well as Checkered Flags. If those some how can’t be found, then I would be more than happy to provide the news media opportunity to investigate based on my saved files and photo copies of the posts. That being said, I and others as well, look forward to seeing how Checkered Flag responds and the actions taken. After all, how can you trust a car dealership that supports unethical behavior as defined by Google? I can’t. I don’t do business like that, and neither should anyone else. Buyer beware!
