I want to start by saying I am absolutely DISGUSTED with my Tropical Chevrolet experience.
To start... when I was car shopping I had sent 4 emails trying to get info on the car I wanted. No phone calls no email back. I blindly drove from Oakland Park hoping the car was there. Luckily it was.
Upon arrival I was greeted by Derek (The only good to come from my tropical visit) He took me to the car and it was exactly what I wanted. When we went inside to deal and figure out pricing and payments another salesman helped. He was alright but a bit pushy.
We haggled a little back and forth. The final agreed upon price for the car came to $36000 or something it may have been lower but I'm being fair. They informed me depending on my credit I may not get the payment I wanted ($525) but that was the price. Came back my credit wasn't as good as I had thought it was, so I understood my payment would be higher ($714). After almost 3 hours I left with the car I wanted. Not the payment I wanted
The next day (in the daylight) I realize the emblems on the passenger side of the car are missing. the brake pedal is missing. and the wireless charger doesn't work. So, I spend my day Driving to Tropical Chevrolet from Oakland park to have this fixed. The emblems got put on. the pedal got replaced. But I was told that the wireless charger worked fine. After showing my phone didn't work on it and the tech guys phone DIDN'T work on it and then a salesman phone DIDN'T work on it. I was told its fine there is nothing they can do.
So, I set up ANOTHER appointment to have it looked at AGAIN. I spend my day driving to Tropical Chevrolet from Oakland Park AGAIN. To find out the computers have been down since 9 am and my appointment is at 3 pm. There is nothing that can be done have a good day.
SO, I SET UP ANOTHER APPOINTMENT now I've had the car for a couple weeks and realize the needle speedometer is 4-5 mph faster than the digital. I show up and nobody has any clue what s going on. who I have the appointment with. blah blah blah. so, they finally take it, 3 hours later they have driven it 20 miles looked at it done what they need to do. They call me to my car and explain they don't see the mph difference and that the charger worked fine. So, they show me with my own phone that it is suddenly working. On my way home, the speedo is much more accurate. Not sure what was done but it seems to be fixed. BUT for the inconvenience of making my 3rd trip there I was not offered a car wash, or a tank top off.
At this point I don't know if there is anything that can be done. If there is I would love to hear it.
