I gave you my contact privately a week ago. You also know who I am and have all my contact info. Of course, they never contacted me again after selling me the car and after the numerous complaints I have with them. Terrible after sale support. Be careful about this dealer, you could spend a lot of money after buying the car.

I spoke with the General Mananger TJ on February 15th. He said he would speak to owner about reimbursing the $700 that it cost to fix the car. He said he would call me the next morning on February 16th to let me know what the owner said. It is now February 18th and I have heard nothing. Clearly JOE GORBECKI the owner of this dump establishment finds it perfectly ok to sell cars like this. I will be forwarding this to my attorney on Monday,

Drive 45 minutes, found a nice office area with friendly staff. However, they can’t help you unless you know what car you plan to buy. The guy I spoke to said, “we do things differently here. You tell me what car you want, I’ll go get it, and you can see it before you buy it”. I asked about several cars, and he told me they couldn’t accommodate me looking at multiple cars. I asked about a few specific cars from the website. Most were sold, a couple undergoing repairs, and despite looking for 2 cars, left without seeing anything. Big waste of time. They post great prices online, but seems like a bait and switch situation more than anything. Not the way to do business. How does one shop for cars you can’t see? No sense of customer service, and the whole business model seems very sketchy.

I sent 4 emails and made 2 calls to your sales department and as stated prior you told me the car I was interested in was mo longrr available. If you want to do something for me and others who were interested in the same car, stop posting it and sending automated emails saying its still available. It is still posted on Carfax and Autotrader as per the links below. It is the grey Jeep Patriot sport 2012 for $5495. This is nothing more than bait and switch. https://www.carfax.com/vehicle/1C4NJRBB3CD603480 https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicle/689217315?city=Waterford&listingType=USED&listingType=CERTIFIED&listingType=3P_CERT&makeCode=JEEP&marketExtension=include&maxPrice=8000&newSearch=false&numRecords=25&referrer=%2Fcars-for-sale%2Fcars-under-8000%2Fjeep%2Fwaterford-ct%3FisNewSearch%3Dfalse%26listingTypes%3DUSED%252CCERTIFIED%252C3P_CERT%26marketExtension%3Dinclude%26numRecords%3D25%26searchRadius%3D50%26sortBy%3Drelevance%26zip%3D06385&searchRadius=50&sortBy=relevance&state=CT&zip=06385&clickType=listing
