Just had an experience with a Kia Dealership in Arlington Texas where a price was given and then I was informed, after I had financing, that it was no longer the actual price.
I was helping my sister get a 2014 Soul at Patterson Kia in Arlington Texas. We were helped by a sales man named (available on request). The salesman was very helpful and over 90 minutes we had found a vehicle that she wanted in the color that she desired. Over this time we were introduced to a sales manager named (available on request), also a very friendly gentleman. We went to this dealership as it was advertized as a no haggle dealership and we did not want to play the normal new car buying games. My sister had decided on the vehicle and the salesman was informed what the down payment was going to be and that there was to be no trade-in.
So with that information he left and a few minutes later came back with a price break down. Here is what the vehicle listed for he told us; here is the discount, and thus the cost of the vehicle plus the normal tax, title, and license. We also were told what the tax rate for this dealership was. I also asked what other costs would be added. I wanted to get this loan in my sister’s name only so she filled out a credit application. This was then sent to the finance department and the salesman came back with an approximate loan schedule that included monthly amount and length of loan. I knew going into this transaction that she had blemishes on her credit but wanted to see what interest rate the dealership was going to offer.
Well it was determined that the interest rate was too high and that I would be able to provide a much lower rate if I co-signed, and having several banks that my business uses I have developed a relationship such that I would be able to get her a lower interest rate. Having explained this to the salesman I made sure what the final price was to be. Never once did the salesman or (available on request) ask or request that we make a deposit, or meet with anyone else. I explained to the salesman that due to scheduling commitments that it would take 36 to 48 hours for me to get financing, get all paperwork signed, pick up a check, and get both of us to the dealership. Again I confirmed that the price given was the one that I would use to base all loan amounts. And again never once was I asked to meet with the finance department or asked to leave a deposit. After being at the dealership for about three hours we left with what we thought was a firm price and a DEAL, after all we had done EVERYTHING asked of us.
