*****BUYERS BEWARE***** Where do I even start on the horrible experiences we've had at Sheehy? To be fair, we actually purchased our first new car from there, and that experience wasn't all that bad. Not great (typical of what you would expect from an aggressive car dealership), but certainly not the ones from hell that we experienced recently.

Last week, we went in to look at a used 2012 Honda CRV. Not only did the sales person not give a crap, but he was also extremely condescending. He didn't answer any of our questions and blatantly questioned our competence. News flash, we're not trained conniving a**holes, but we do know a thing or two about negotiating, and excuse us for doing our jobs as consumers. Needless to say, we left that day in pretty bad moods.

If it had stopped there, I wouldn't have felt the need to write a scathing review. After all, sales is hard and we wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. But today was the straw that broke the camel's back, because they FLAT OUT LIED to us.

Over the weekend, we saw a nearly identical car with 20K fewer miles selling for the exact same price. This piqued our interest and the manager Sylkk reached out to schedule a meeting. He even offered to give us his personal cell so he could update us if the car sold before our scheduled meeting time. We were genuinely impressed with the customer service. Naturally, when we didn't get a call leading up to our appointment, we assumed everything was squared away.

In retrospect, we should have been suspicious. Our appointment was at 7pm, but my prior engagement ended early, so we decided to go in 30 minutes early. Out of respect, we called Sylkk to give him a heads up. No answer. Hmmm, maybe he was busy. So we left a message and headed over. Of course, Sylkk wasn't there, but we got a very frazzled salesman who was probably brand new. When it came time for the test drive, he pulled up the car that we had driven previously, and when we caught the mistake, that's when things got ugly. To save you from the gruesome details, just know that we were subject to the bait and switch.

Now, for your enjoyment, please see my heartfelt message to the elusive "manager," Sylkk.

Sylkk - You messed with the wrong couple. We may look young, but we came to you looking for a car in earnest. We trusted you to do your part. Yet you didn't even have the decency to follow through on your promise. Rather, you lured us in knowing full well the car we were interested in was sold and you sent your most junior staff to try to sell us an overpriced car we didn't want. Then you tried to offer an "inconvenience fee" that took the price right to what you previously offered! You played us for fools, but you underestimated us. You underestimated how much we value principle. And we will make sure everyone in our spheres of influence knows to NEVER give money to Sheehy.
