RE: Dealership crash my truck
I brought my '03 RAM HEMI in for service about 4 weeks ago. They took it thru the wash before returning it to me and the guy spun the tires and slammed into the building and took out the drivers side rear quarter panel. They said they would fix it and give me a loaner. I asked them to repair a dent on the other side to compensate for my time and effort. They told me it wasn't their problem and they would just fix what they did. I had taken the truck to a couple body shops for estimates and they said the panel needed to be replaced. The dealer took it in to "their guy" and he started repairng the fender. I told them 'NO' but they said they guaranteed his work 100%. When I got the truck back (1 week) it looked like CRAP (Bondo city). I took it back to the dealer and they agreed it looks AWFUL. Now I have to bring it back in again and they will have him replace the fender. I also have a over-the-rail Line-X and told them to reuse Line-X for the warranty and they said they have the same stuff. I don't understand Customer Service at DC and how they can treat prople this way.

RE: Dealership crash my truck
Hello,
My co-worker decided to take the day off today (took the ads home with him).
Anyway, I called the salesman that sold us our 2006 Lonestar Quad Cab Hemi for $12K off of MSRP (bought it Monday June 19th), at a different dealership from the ad I mentioned in my previous post. I asked him if he could still give $12K off all 1500 Quad Cabs on the lot and asked him if I could put his name and number on the Dodge Forum. He said yes to both. They don't have this advertised in the papers and you don't need an ad to show him to match. I only saw a couple of trucks that had dealer ads (nerf bars, receiver hitches, and 7 pin plugs). Ours did not have any dealer ads on it. I will have the nerf bars, receiver hitch and 7 pin plug put on it.
I know this does not help you with the dealership that wrecked your truck....I know you need an ad to show them, for them to match...
I am not sure if I can put the salesmans name and dealerships phone number this forum...Admin, please advise...
BTW: I do not get any type of kickbacks or incentive if anyone buys from this dealership. I do not like it when a dealership offers an add vehicle (only one at that price - and they have sold it before the ad even runs - case in point... When we bought or previous truck, my Wife found a special on this Ford F150 single cab, 6 cylinder ($9K off of MSRP). This was on a Tuesday night, we went to the Ford dealership on Wednesday evening and the truck was still there. We bought it. Went back that Saturday to get it detailed, and found out that our truck was the "Ad" truck...I saw that add (with my stock number) in the paper for the next 4 weeks....only one at that price.
Before we bought the Dodge Quad Cab Hemi, we were looking at the Ford SuperCrews. We visited at least 4 Ford dealerships and when I asked them about their ads in the paper offering $12.5K off MSRP, they all told me the same thing.....that 12.5K was either ONE truck at that price and it was sold, or they trucks were there but had around $6K in dealer ads. The best we found was $11K off of MSRP but that was for the 4.6.....they are not negotiating on the 5.4's. We wanted to upgrade to a larger engine, cause we are thinking about buying a travel trailer. Now we have a Hemi!!!!
Best Regards,
Steve

RE: Dealership crash my truck
Most company sponsored discounts are at $1000.00 behind invoice, and they're still making a decent profit. First ask to see the invoice, then start working them. Don't let them make this your problem, they screwed up YOUR truck!!!!!!

The insurance would be crazy im only 19 >>>>>
YIKES! A friend of mines brother who is only 22 let the bank repo his brand new Ford cause the payments and insurance combined were over $700 per month. He didn't have great credit and took negative equity on his trade in, I felt bad for the guy finally got the truck he wanted but couldn't keep it.
