I went in to mel clayton to buy a mustang some 2 years ago. What an ordeal, they used every dirty tactic and scam, scheme to try to get me bait and switched to a higher interest rate! theyused evry trick! i had good credit ,but they started digging up stuff from ten years ago!they told me i would have to finance at least 18 percent interest.they tried to even scare me into doing it by bringing in a couple of big guys and some red headed fat guy! if i had been a timid perosn or an old woman no telling what they might have pulled off.i used to own a body shop so i know cars and car sellsman very well and all their dirty tricks.i couldnt belive the things that they were trying, even after i told them i have lots of friends in past and have partied with drunken car salesman and have owned a body shop!! those idiots kept trying to con me.. they even stood in front of my truck and seamed irritated when i told them games over im going to look at a car at bell ford..i was on the phone with bell ford while they were trying to pull outrageous stuff. the black guy they sent in was the only one had any sense! i think he could see right away i wasnt scared or stupid! so he got bored went back to his office. with my supposedly horrible credit i got financed through ford motor company at sanderson ford ! bell ford was cool too! earnhardts is a whole nother page equal to mel claytons. sanderson ford is best dealership in town hands down!!please dont send your grandmother to mel clayton she might lose her knickers!!

Uhh... how are those informative, or proof that Sanderson Lincoln Mercury has ripoff reports? They don't, the first report has pics of the OTHER Sanderson dealership down the street. Sanderson Lincoln Mercury itself has 0 ripoff reports. Please elaborate on the reports you linked to and their relevance to Sanderon LM?

Ummmm

Upon reading and UNDERSTANDING Ashley's comment. I think that what has been said was very rude. She also made a ripoff report and then mention that she bought something from them after the report and they were great.

I think she meant to say do instead of don't in her comment. Otherwise why (since she filed her own.) would she say that had none? Or say that it was unreal! That to me means to how many complaints they have.

Good for you. Slamming someone who was agreeing with you. Due to a mistake while typing.

Thats Exactly what we are talking about !

AUTHOR: Mike - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, October 15, 2005

More than likely the response to ashleys comment was from a mel clayton employee. This is exactly their style! instead of honesty and integrity they result to scams and schemes.Mel Clayton is known all over phoenix time and time again by the vast majority of people to be very direputable.Any car dealership in this country will have a few disgrunted customers but when you talk to anybody about mel clayton,you better pull up a chair if they actually bought a car their!!I dont know anybody that has bought a car their will do so again!! Why ford just doesnt take away their dealership agreement is beyond me!
Im not totally sure but i heard ford will not let them sell cars for xplan. They sold my brother a car and told him it has never been wrecked,which wasnt true but thats my brothers fault for not making them put it in writing.i told my brother their reputation before buying that he might get screwed somehow and that he needed to be very careful.

I feel your pain..

Hi, I filed another Ripoff Report for Mel Clayton a few months back, and it's horrible to see they're still up to their dirty tricks. Funny enough, I also ended up buying from a Sanderson Ford (Sanderson Lincoln Mercury) and they were fantastic. Notice how they don't have any Ripoff Reports. To anyone contemplating buying from Mel Clayton, please just do a search for them and see how many ripoff reports have been filed! It's unreal!!!
