ADAMSON FORD ripoff Birmingham Alabama

I think it is the Dealer's responsibility not to lie and to properly have all documents included in the sales contract and properly signed by the buyer before the sales contract is final. Do you believe that? Even if you do not, the Court does in "Hickox v.Stover, 551 So.2d 259 (Ala. 1989) and "Harris v. M&S Toyota, Inc., 575 So.2d 74 (Ala. 1991)."

True, the buyer should be aware of what he signs on the "dotted line;" but the Dealer has the responsibility to ascertain that all pertinent documents are properly included in the sales contract when it is signed by the buyer; and not make false representations to a buyer.

It still surprises me to no end how people complain AFTER the fact that they signed on the dotted line. We all know that automobile dealers and their sales force are some of the most crooked people you'll ever come into contact with.

It's your responsibility to research prices and such to know whether or not you're getting a good deal. There are many books and magazines available that will tell you the prices on cars. Research, research, research!

And the thing that gets me is, even after they know they're getting screwed, THEY STILL SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE! If I ever feel like I'm getting screwed on a deal, my solution is to stand up and LEAVE!

If you got screwed, oh well..

Should an automobile dealer use "good faith" when selling any vehicle to a customer?

I personally believe autombile dealer should always use "good faith" when they sell any vehicle to a customer. Do you this also?

Since I am a retired CPA/CFE and knew that the salesperson and dealer were not dealing with me in "good faith," I wanted to see the extent of how much they would rip me, a previous customer, off. I can easily prove that the sale was not done ethically and in "good faith" because they (Adamson Ford) would not allow me to return the vehicle when I called them back two hours later, letting them know that I was going to return the vehicle.

The salesperson said that the Title was now mine and not their's. He was unaware that they (Adamson Ford) had given me a defective Title since the vehicle had been purchased out of state and they did not include the Dealer's Affidavit stating when the came into the state, and the date when they had purchased the vehicle for resale. This statement is required in the State of Alsbama in order for a dealer to transfer the Title of a vehicle that they purchased out-of-state. Since the Title was defective, I could have easily cancelled the purchase of the vehicle. But, I wanted Adamson to correct the sale and deal with me in "good faith," since I was a previous customer.

Plus, my daughter liked and wanted the vehicle. Moreover, in my previous professions (auditing and fraud investigation), I have always dealt with others in "good faith." Also, I feel that all customers want to be treated in an honest and fair manner, and not be ripped off whenever they buy any product. In my heart, I believe you want to be treated honestly and fairly whenever you make any purchase. Am I right? Besides, there are still many Americans who believe in dealing with others truthfully and in "good faith."

Now, Cory, don't go getting on the 'Poor Black Folk'.

Why is it that whenever a black person gets a raw deal, due to their own negligence, it's always 'because I'm black'? It has nothing to do with color my friend. Nobody held a gun to your head to make you buy that car. And, why are you complaining about sales tax, license and title? That's standard on every car. Oh wait, just because you're black means you should get it for free? Another point, you're complaining that they didn't 'steer' you in the right direction for financing. Why didn't you steer yourself?? Why should they tell you to go to your own bank for financing? They also didn't force you to buy the warranty, you bought the warranty of your own free will.

There's no ripoff here. Just a case of chronic stupidity.

If they gave you such a bad deal on the vehicle, WHY did you buy it?
