My experience with Wanner Ford has been a very frustrating one. i had a terrible leasing experience there i went to lease a car got all my documents together and on the day i went to sign the deal i waited forever its not like i live 1.5hrs from the dealer. but anyway i signed the contract for the lease left home with the car and in two days i get a call from the dealer a guy named Fred saying that if i was laid off work i said yes he said i needed to get a full time job in less than 24hrs or i had to return the car back ?? i was like you have another income on file my wife's they said no you need a full time job and unemployment doesn't count this is ridiculous i said i said can we work something out so that i can keep the car he said no and started getting rude and nasty on the phone talking about if i dont return the car that he will report it stolen and prosecute me i was like wtf. i never  said i wasnt going to return the car i was just shocked on how it all went down they rushed me thru the leasing process and i gave them $500 cash to get the lease i return the car i only had it 2 or 3 days tops now they wont return my call about me getting my $500 It's not bad enough that every time I called  they put you on hold for sometimes 15 minutes and never come back to you.  Very poor place to do business. i would never step foot in this place even if its the last dealership in the world. i am very upset and disgusted with this place. i should have stayed local.

Must have a job to get a car loan

AUTHOR: Wanner Ford - (United States)

POSTED: Tuesday, March 06, 2018

Customer was delivering parts to dealership and inquired about a car. Fred Marafioti, sales manager, get customer a loan despite customer's prior credit history. Customer took delivery of vehicle but failed to disclose he was fired the day before. Bank called customer's place of work to verify employment and learned he was let go.

Bank then cancelled the loan and reported issue to dealership. Marifioti convinced bank to give customer 24 hours to find new job but customer was unable to secure employment. We had to contact customer and retrieve car. This was explained to customer and had customer told sales manager this could have been avoided.

Car buying SCUMBAG EXPOSED !!!!

AUTHOR: Auto Dealer Fraud Investigator - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, July 23, 2012

My name is and I help law firms who go after dealerships who take advantage of car buying public.  After reading this rip off report I had to ask myself there's something wrong here.  Something just doesn't seem right.  We all know car dealers across the country route to earn a profit. We all know there's nothing wrong with that.  Sometimes the dealerships will take advantage of consumers and sometimes the consumers will take advantage of the dealerships if they have the opportunity.  Being taken advantage of goes both ways.

So I took the liberty and the time to call this dealership and I find out something that this person who posted this ripoff report failed to reveal.  Yes this car buyer had pay stubs of where he was employed.  Every lender who lends money to consumers who want to buy cars wants to make sure that everything is legit.  This car buyer failed to reveal to the dealership verbally the day before he went there that he lost his job.  He filled out a credit application and told them where he worked, but he never told the dealer that he lost his job the day before.

Oh yes he brought in paystub to show that he was employed. The question is when was he terminated.   The answer to that question was the day before he went to go buy a car and he submitted a fraudulent loan application to a lender. He told the dealership that he was employed and showed them his paystubs.So after the dealership submitted the paperwork to the lender and let the car buyer drive the car home.

The lender did their homework and found out that the customer lost his job the day before. The lender found out after calling buyers so-called place of employment and they told the bank that he was recently terminated the day before he went to the dealership.So this guy is going to buy a car after losing his job as a piece of work. Scumbags like this do not have the right to go around trashing businesses that have done nothing wrong.So to the guy who posted this ripoff report you are a scumbag in My opinion. 

My hat is off to the dealership for trying to earn your business even though you are scumbag.  So Mr. scumbag keep bouncing from job to job and just remember every time you bounce from one job to another your credit score goes down. 

Sweet revenge you a*****e.Footnote to the dealership. I commend you for trying to earn the business of your customers. My hats off to you in every way. There're many dealerships across the country that do not like me because I go after the ones that rip off consumers. in my eyes this dealership has done nothing absolutely nothing wrong. So if you are a car buyer thinking of doing business with this dealership give them a shot of earning your business and your trust.I am a consumer advocate but I do not advocate scumbags who are trying to lie to the banks and make the dealerships look like crap.

After talking to this dealer, I had to come to their defence.

the real truth- from fred

AUTHOR: The FRED you speak of - (United States of America)

POSTED: Thursday, July 19, 2012

 You misrepresented your employment status to the bank. You signed the contract on a Wednesday, and you no longer worked for your company on the Tuesday prior. I can't responsible for getting erroneous information from you. The bank called to verify your employment, the bank is the one who gives the loans, and you misrepresented yourself. It doesn't matter what your wife makes, you stated that you were gainfully employed; and you weren't. This was a stipulation of the bank to receive credit. We are only as good as the information that you supply.

Last i checked, lying on a bank contract was against the law....
