***SINGLE WOMEN SHOPPING ALONE BEWARE***

***SINGLE WOMEN SHOPPING ALONE BEWARE***

It pains me to have to write this review. Shopping for your first car should be an exciting time. Unfortunately, I was too trusting with Demondtrond.

A week prior I had received a quote for just over 23k for a Volkswagon Tiguan. When I arrived to the dealership the quote that was handed to me was for just over 24k. (Classic case of checking to see if they could sneak one past me if I did not read all of the paperwork). Luckily I had the original quote on my phone - while I was trying to pull it up, Keith Muhammad (Sales rep I was working with) said it was "Not that big of a deal, an extra $1000 is only like a $20 a month extra payment". I rebuttal-ed and finally got the price I had originally been quoted for.

Now to insurance. Even though I had sent my insurance to Keith prior and SPECIFICALLY SAID I DID NOT WANT ANY EXTRAS JUST THE CAR- I was still hassled to buy their insurance. I declined.

Now to financing. When I gave my information to do a credit check, they sent my credit to SIX DIFFERENT PLACES KNOCKING DOWN MY CREDIT SCORE TO THE LOWEST THEY COULD TO RAISE MY INTEREST RATE. (more on this later) The dealership tried to slap me with a 10.99% interest rate and then baited and flipped the numbers to discuss monthly payments so I would not catch on to what the total cost would be.

After walking out, the Sales Manager, Mike, called and tried to get me to continue to buy the car. I asked for him to decrease the price by $1000 for trying to trick me. He declined and said there was nothing he could do.

I decided to shop around. Mike was offended that I would even look at other dealerships. (LADIES RESPONSIBLE CAR BUYERS ALWAYS LOOK AROUND). When I told Mike I was not going to purchase the car he said a new rebate came out and he would take $1000 off the price. I responded that had he done that on Tuesday he would have had a deal. He said it was not available on Tuesday, however never felt it was necessary to mention the savings until after I had told him I was no longer interested in purchasing a car from him.

Enter my banker. When he took a look at my credit score it was 45 POINTS HIGHER THAN THE ONE THE FINANCE MANAGER OF DEMONDTROND TOLD ME. Back to the dealership running my credit multiple times my banker mentioned that how much they spit me out to it appeared as if I WENT TO 6 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS.

I am so grateful I did not succumb to their pressure and went with my guy. LADIES DO NOT GO HERE ALONE. DO NOT TRUST THIS DEALERSHIP. THEY WILL DO EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU!! STAYYYYY FARRRRR AWAYYYYY. Go to the other 2984279 dealerships in Houston.

If you are looking for a vehicle I cannot say how happy I was working with Ryan Flores. His family manages multiple dealerships in the Houston area and he made the process quit, easy, and got me a GREAT deal!!!
