Bill Harris Dodge, Ashland Ohio. Bait and switch or just liars? Called Friday about Ram 1500 advertised online for a good price. Confirmed they had it so I would come down the next day to see it, Saturday morning. I was 1 hour's drive away.
Saturday morning, I call on the way but salesman was busy. I said I would be there at 11:30am. Get there and salesman was still busy so another salesperson says she will handle it. She looks for keys for test drive, comes back and says the truck was sold last night, Friday night.
She asks if I would be interested in anything else. I said NO and that I only wanted to look at the truck they showed online and had promised was there when I called the day before. I get ready to leave and she goes and gets the manager. He says "we sold that last night to a new dealership we are opening in another location. I can have them get it ready and you could go see it on Tuesday." I said "What??? No I'm not going to do that." He said hang on and came back later saying that they could have it ready to test drive in a half hour at the other location.
I decided to leave. I felt like I had been played. They wanted to act like the truck was gone and push me into another truck at most likely a higher price. Then when I said I only wanted to look at that specific truck, it magically was going to be available even though it had been sold.
Recap: I drive an hour to get there. She told me "sorry, it sold last night." Then the manager says he could have it ready to look at in a half hour. I don't purchase vehicles every year but I know it's not supposed to go like this.
