The worst car buying experience I have ever been a part of, I arrived to look at a truck that was marked as still available on the online inventory and was even called to setup a time to look at this vehicle. Upon arriving the vehicle was sold, I took interest into a brand new vehicle on the lot. Which I eventually committed to buying, spent about 5 hours in a salesman office while we debated back and forth on vehicles/pricing. Once I finally pulled the gun I signed all of my financing paperwork on a vehicle then told it would be ready after all of the paperwork, sat in the office for another hour just to be told that the mechanic had the lug nut key locked away so I left empty handed and was told to come back first thing in the morning. I arrived in the afternoon and was knocked blind sided with news that the vehicle I SIGNED/BOUGHT had aftermarket suspension on it so the salesman asked for $1500 more dollars on the spot or else I had to cancel my sale and buy another vehicle. I refused to pay and decided on another vehicle, spent another hour or two while they prepared the paperwork and was on my way. Fast forward a month later, I decided I wanted to cancel my Ally VSC sold by the dealership. I called Ally and was told I had to get it signed from a rep from Dan Vaden, arrived in person and gave it to a manager to be told it will be signed then faxed over to Ally. Two weeks later I call Ally to check up on it and received news that nothing was ever faxed, I tried called Dan Vaden on multiple occasions on the matter but every-time I was transferred to someone who would help me I ended up with the same excuse that I would have to leave a voicemail because they were unable to get a hold of a manager or he/she was out of the office. On my SECOND attempt on getting this VSC cancelled I decided to pay another in-person visit to the dealership to cancel it, got everything signed and was promised it would be faxed to Ally that very day. Today I call Ally to check up on the cancellation, what do you know? It's still active and Ally hasn't received ANYTHING regarding to a cancellation from Dan Vaden, I called up there and was forwarded to a manager who seems to be never in his office. Left a voice mail. Seriously? I have been trying to get this cancellation processed for over a month now and already passed the 60-day limit on getting a full refund for it, now I am losing money on this VSC because Dan Vaden's giving me the round about on doing something as simple as faxing a cancellation. Thanks a lot! 30+ days later and I am still trying to get this done, what a joke. If it takes this long to get something as simple as this done I would hate to know how long it would take to have a serious issue taken care of.
