Bill Heard Chevrolet ripoff Kenkennesaw Georgia

I too had a bad experience with this Dealership. I actually paid $15000 CASH down and a month later, yes A MONTH, they called and said the terms had changed and they needed me to come in and sign some new papers. It appeared there was a problem with my credit.

I called on several occasions during the first week of owning my NEW TAHOE. They assured me everything was OK. And much to my surprise it wasn't. They even cashed my check and it cleared the bank in 2 days! Yet, it took them a month to tell me there was a problem.

PEOPLE, THEY DO THIS TO CONSUMERS ALL THE TIME. PLEASE BEWARE! DO NOT DRIVE OFF THE LOT UNTIL YOU PERSONALLY HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE BANK WHO IS DOING THE FINANCING OF YOUR VEHICLE. NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU!

I drove what I thought was my new car for a month and put about 3500 miles on it, then they wanted to charge me for the mileage. NO WAY! I made them get me a CASHIERS CHECK and take their car back. They screwed up and it was their problem.

SO, AGAIN, PEOPLE, PLEASE BEWARE OF DOING BUSINESS WITH THIS "ONE OF THE LARGEST DEALERSHIPS IN THE COUNTRY" They will rip you off if they get even half a chance. I wont even go into detail of what they did on the paperwork. I was too excited about having a new vehicle to read the fine print. They added all sorts of charges that were not even explained!

When you look up CAUTION in the phone book, you will see their name!

The previous poster is correct. With all the tools at the consumer's disposal (phone, internet, etc) no one should walk into a dealership without financing pre-arranged or at least a good idea of what you can get. Even if you use the manufacturer's lender, you can apply online and get approval. If you do this though, you might still have to haggle over the interest rate at the dealership. Equifax credit reporting has a feature on their website that tells you what you can expect to pay in interest rate due to your FICO score and your ZIP code.

Former employee will attest that this is common practice at Bill Heard Chevrolet, Kennesaw, Ga. They often let people leave with cars without even having secured the financing yet, despite what they tell the customer. The only way it will ever stop is for people to STOP BUYING CARS THERE! If you want financing, TRY YOUR OWN BANK FIRST!!!

Thank you Rip-Off Report!

You go, Macey.

Spot delivery is a dispicable scam. Either you have the financing or you don't. Calling you back over and over to sign new "deals" is absurd. I live in your area and will be purchasing 2 new cars in the next 6 months. You can bet I will be watching this site for car dealers in the Metro Atl area. Thanks again for your post.
