We Bought a 2004 chevy trail blazer from these high pressure salesmen... what a mistake, what they do is keep you there for hours and wear you down with lies and deciet, we were told that our trade was going to be bought out by them a 2002 toyota 4 runner limited, just to find out later that they added it into our loan amount.... This is just the icing on the cake....

Everything starts going wrong with this car, moldings fall off doors winshield wippers come on and off whenever they want ac stops and goes back on, car dies get this right in front of bill heard I had to push it into the parking lot....We really have tried to get rid of this piece of sh** put because they added our 4 runner into the price we are very very upside down....
My Advice: NEVER GO TO BILL HEARD CHEVROLET

I have asked TV station to do reports on car dealerships and the B.S they can peddle to customers. Of course, they won't do a story because of the hit in revenue they would take. So much for being consumer advocates. One local guy claims that if you have a problem you can't solve given him a call. HA! OK! Lie to me some more!

Anyway.. What's the deal with Bill Heard? All I see are bad comments. Is this guy really that bad? Why is he still in business? I'm not sticking up for him. I hate car dealerships as much as the next guy. When I go to one I tell the salesman that he has half and hour to get me out the door or I am leaving. They never can of course but it is insane to waste HOURS at a delearship. They are all *&*&*. *&*&*!

I hate each and everyone of them. I got screwed by one and I made such a stink by posting flyers all ove the place, sending letters to my attorney, etc etc. that I finally got a positive response from the dealership. *&*&*! Now this same dealership wants to be nice to me and fix the problem. If you are thinking about buying from ---- STOP! If you are thinking about buying from ---- STOP!

The only "reputable" dealerships that I found in Utah are ---- in Provo and -----. I am babbling. Siffice it to say I hope you get revenge on Bill Heard and drive that crook out of business and into a prison cell. Cheers!!

sorry, allowing you to give a competitors name would instigate others to just file against their competition, to only come back later to suggest their company your comments on this policy are welcome!

Where Is Your Brain???

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

POSTED: Saturday, August 05, 2006

When you trade a car with a loan balance, where do you think that balance goes? It just evaporates? The dealer pays off the loan balance and then adds that pay-off to the new loan! How simple is this to understand? This isn't illegal or unethical. So, when you pay on the new car, guess what? You're paying for TWO CARS!

Many dealers will run advertising saying: "We'll pay off your trade, no matter how much you owe!" as if they are doing you a favor. How else can they get title to the trade UNLESS they pay it off?

Why did you do business with a Bogus Billy dealership to begin with? How much of a DEALER FRAUD FEE did you pay? Ofd course, we all know it was for "adminstrative purposes"! Right.
BOGUS BILLY had to pay the BIGGEST penalty in Florida history for a car dealer getting into trouble with the Attorney General. It was well over 300K! Yes, he's "Mr. Big Chevy", right?
Did BOGUS BILLY hit you for hundreds of dollars for the "ETCH FRAUD"? You've made some mistakes this time but you've (hopefully) learned much in the process.

Bogus Billy has one of the worst records in the business. Never, ever go into a Bogus Billy store again, unless you have un-controlled diarehha and need their floor. In such a case, they are already choking on the stench of their fraud and deception!

What a waste!

Trading a 2002 Toyota 4 Runner Limited for a 2004 Chevy Blazer? What could have possibly have been wrong with the Toyota that would make you want to get rid of it for a Chevy?

Bill Heard dealerships are the worst but man, when are people going to stop blaming the dealer for their own mistakes.

A good way to get them to stop the pressure

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

POSTED: Sunday, May 21, 2006

A great way to deal with high pressure auto salesmen. Let them "make the deal" to the point it is ready for your signature. Then simply tell them, it is your policy to have all financial and legal documents reviewed by your relative who is an attorney. Ask for copies of the loan document to take with you. In all cases they will realize they are now caught in their lies/deception and will likely refuse.

Many people have bad credit but need transportation. A "dream car" is a nice idea, but no where worth the expense of being upside down on a high interest auto loan.

Face it. Despite what some will tell you the car is not YOU. It is not truly a reflection of who you are, nor does it improve your status in society with anyone who matters.

Buy a junker, keep it repaired. Yes, repairs cost money, but the money you are dumping into a high interest loan as well as full coverage insurance could go into the bank to pay for these repairs when needed. The only purpose of a car is to go from point A to B, hopefully without breaking down. When the junker finally breaks down beyond repair, start over.

I know how you feel

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

POSTED: Saturday, May 20, 2006

I got screwed like that too. Last year I traded in my 74 Chevy Vega for a sweet 88 Fiat Strada. I only had 17 payments left on the Vega (about $7500) so I figured I had plenty of equity to apply to the Strada. I got a smoking good deal on the Strada, 22K PLUS a free oil change and 2 VIP car washes! They told me they would pay off the trade as well

I was so excited to find the car of my dreams that I signed the paperwork without looking at it. Much to my chagrin, the $7500 was added to the loan. And to make matters worse, due to my recent bankruptcy and lack of gainful employment the best rate they could get me on my dreamboat was 32%.

So I guess next time, we both have to look at the paperwork.

I Hate To Tell You

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

POSTED: Saturday, May 20, 2006

I hate to tell you but EVERY car dealer does that. That's where the real screwing comes in. I hear it here all the time. "We'll pay off your trade-in". They're just putting the negative equity on the new note. The trick is to figure out what they are really "giving" you for your trade-in, if anything. So, they really didn't "give" you anything for your 2002 toyota and they sold you some POS blazer that they probably paid little or nothing for and now their going to sell your toyota to someone else for $15,000 or more. Yep, you got screwed. A car dealer's perfect deal.
