Told ya. effin STEALERSHIPs..

It just sucks that we share the world with so many rip off artists. I once had a mortgage broker attempt to add thousands in fees at signing time, and I suspect she would have pocketed all that money herself, when I challenged her, she could not explain what she was doing, why the numbers had changed. Anyone not as adept at numbers, a customer who did not do the math themeselves ahead of time, would have been a victim.

I have also had auto mechanics shops, often dealers, attempt to steal from me on many occassions. My wife once got an $800 repair estimate that ended up requiring a fuse to resolve. I am not kidding. I went to the dealer, had a talk with the mechanic, and asked him to show me the parts I needed, which he actually made up names for - not even real parts. I have also had shops charge me for work not done - in one case I got a refund when I showed the management the brand new spark plugs their mechanic installed, which in fact had no electrodes left - discovered when the car started running on 1 cylinder.

Here is what the Nissan of North America e-mailed me this morning.

I wanted to give you a final update: The General Manager at Nissan of San Bernardino stated that the situation has been discussed within the dealership, and they have decided to "write off" the $1000.00 down payment. You should not receive any further contact from Nissan of San Bernardino in regards to this matter. Thank you for being a part of the Nissan family!

Repecfully,

Axxxxxxx

Congrats, SoCal! I'm glad to hear that the issue is resolved.

I've been following this thread but didn't post since I do not have any experience w/ this. I'm happy that everything is resolved. GO ENJOY THE Z =]

elmz 07-27-2010 02:52 PM

Congrats man! Glad to hear you didn't have to go to court or anything. I hope members can learn from this experience or avoid dealing with this sales person.

zZSoCalZz 07-27-2010 04:17 PM

Thanks all... Can't give out more rep points for today so more to come tomorrow.

rmorrow 07-27-2010 06:38 PM

So Cal...
Do not worry about "rep points" with me. I am really glad that this resolved, and you can focus on enjoying your Z. I will always help anyone with subject matter that I have experience in. Legal is one of those matters. I really believe that a Nissan Sales person (perhaps even a second one if there was collusion) is $1 grand richer, but the Nissan head honchos knew that your contract would hold up in court, so they called the dealership and told them to "back-off". What a pisser that you had to suffer through this sh*t at all.

Thanks, yeah I can enjoy my Z without any stress now. Agreed the head honchos of Nissan took care of it right away and I'm glad that they took care of it before it became a bigger mess. Props to the Heads of Nissan.

Good job on getting Nissan of North America involved. I've had a lot of success in resolving issues with big companies simply by sending a well-engineered letter straight to the top. I wonder if they will investigate the thief who pocketed your money.
