Rip off mean is..
AUTHOR: archstar1982 - (USA)
SUBMITTED: Thursday, November 03, 2011
Now I need you to clear this up this time. Rip off is not just only money issue, it is include entire horrible experience. You did not understand this story yet. I understand that you are try to protect. I know how do you feel on this report but I still have to...
I forgot to mention in this report that I got from CARMAX security system was defect.
I know what I got back from this company but I still not getting back my spend time and annoy people against me.
You are saying I got back money for the defect security system and completed installation is clear this story? Answer is no. And I don't want any follow by dictionary. I know what that mean is,,
You said "seems could have been avoided by planning ahead."I made my plan to get work on installation. That was the best plan I could make that time.
Do you really think every person could getting a friend to pick me up or something else?
You said "scheduling it for only a few hours not an entire
day"Yes I was taking day of only half day. Not entire day. Sorry, I did not explained well at first post. I should say half day off, is this correct?
"They forget" Is this mean still BS on me or something? I said store manager told me that is not comes with siren device,,Why do you think this is forgetting? And I told her I did make sure with
manufacture of security system, that KIT are comes with it! But she was keep telling me same things over and over!!I also told to sales person right before I talk to store manager. He seems to be working on it but there was miscommunication.
My opinion is one or several person were BS on me, which mean is trying to rip off.
They did not support me until one of my friend contact to headquarter.
This is good enough to describe for rip off. Because I paid what I need to. I follow what CARMAX asking me to... But they were not helping me out until situation is getting horrible.
Why are they fire him off from CARMAX? Because they investigated alarm installer, he was doing his job incomplete. That is why he gets fired, I guess.
Please do not forget adding "maintenance service(oil change and other services)" in this sentence.
They don't have an Alarm Installer and "maintenance service" working on Weekends.
You have to know people are spending the large amount of money at dealership.(I think you know that well), They are not buying a candy and snacks. They are very sensitive to buying a car.
Also I just remembered my car was not equipped cabin air filter since I bought it.
After a winter season I noticed smell so horrible in my car because cabin air filter was missing.
I was going to change it any way but it was too late.Cabin air filter is keep sending clean air against evaporator. Evaporator in my vehicle has lot of dust dirt and mold.
Unbeneficial bacteria against passenger and driver makes horrible sick.
Does every customer need to check if there missing filter or not when buying a car?
I still have horrible smell no matter how much I use disinfectant spray! Horrible smell with bacteria causes of sick,, my girl friend had asthma symptom got worse since I got infected vehicle.
I will have to take my car to the auto shops who does for evaporator cleaning service.
CARMAX has evaporator checking service included. How can they checked for that part and not adding a cabin air filter? I discuss about this to another CARMAX seems to they really don't care. I really think this is one of rip off also. I feel like don't know what to do, I just gave up asking to CARMAX. Could not trust anymore... I watched CARMAX TV commercial, they do complete job, But not for me.
Here is another one I had problem which is not really but almost.
Since I do not trust them I checked every entire system such an oils and coolant what ever causes critical conditions of my car. Engine oil level was too high, this makes break on engine gasket and oil leaks. I had to remove some engine oil which is not part of my job.
CARMAX service was rip off...
Now please remember rip off is not the only alarm system etc,, Most customers are looking for total customer satisfaction mean is :
CUSTOMER MAKE PAYMENT = TOTAL CARE AGAINST CUSTOMER = CUSTOMER SATISFIED OR NOT
This could be same entire company has service for against customer.
Even if I refunded for the security system I still not call this satisfied.
This is what I pay for it and what I got.
Total care was rip off.

This is a RipOff?
AUTHOR: Robert - (U.S.A.)

They don't have an Alarm Installer working on Weekends, so you had to take an entire day off of work. Inconvenient but hardly a RipOff, and one that seems could have been avoided by planning ahead. Such as getting a friend to take you to work, scheduling it for only a few hours not an entire day..etc.
But then they forget(for what ever reason) to attach the siren. So you go back to have it installed and on the day you had to take off they tell you that the installer's family was in a car accident. Again not really a RipOff.
But then you go back and forth again and in the end here is what happened. They sent someone to your work to install it AND refunded the entire purchase price.
So exactly where is the RipOff?
