First of all I went in on a Saturday morning and I was the first one in the door, I had decided what I wanted within an hour. Yet they kept me there for 5 or 6 hours. I saw people come and go.... saw the staff go to lunch all the while they said they were trying to get a loan approved which I now know only takes minutes. They knew that I would be so tired of waiting that I wouldn't read everything as carefully as I should. Now they told me what the price would be and had me sign a paper with that price on it but did not show me the following pages that had additional costs and add ons. Totaling in all about an extra 5,000 dollars. I did not realize this till I got my first payment wich was over a 100 dollars more a month than what they told me they would be.

I went back and confronted them and they denied telling me a different price and told me the salesman didnt work there anymore. I went to a lawyer in crystal lake and he said he has had many people come to him with complaints concerning Viking Dodge, however he said that as sleezy and underhanded as it was, it was still legal. They also screwed me on my trade in but that's a whole other story. Bottom line, they are liars and they will do anything no matter how bad just to squeeze a few more dollars out of you. I would also like to say thanks to the guy that is sitting out front in his "Viking Dodge Lies" car. He is doing what the rest of us that got shafted by them would like to do.

Wait a Minute.......

AUTHOR: Educated Consumer - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, September 11, 2008

First of all, you are correct, it only takes minute to get financing approved.... if the credit is solid and the amount you're looking for is within the loan value of the auto that you are trying to buy. If, on the other hand, your credit is "less than stellar" it may take a long while to get the deal approved. I can only imagine that your situation falls into the latter catagory. You say that the payment was $100.00 higher when all the dust settled, then why did you sign the contract? And don't tell us that the contract was changed, etc. blah, blah, blah. The bottom line is that you needed a car and they got you approved to buy one. It may not have been the unrealistic payment that was on your "wish list" but you were told at the time of signing what it was going to be, so live with the commitment that you made and stop blaming "the dealer, the salesman, the manager, the bank, etc." Is'nt it time you people take responsibility for your own actions and quit whining about how it's everyones' fault but your own. You must remember, they are called "salesman" not inventory defense specialists. If you had a real case against them, it would not be hard to find an attorney that would and should defend you in a case like that. But it sounds as if it weren't for them, you would still be wearing out shoe leather.
