Tricky Trade in and Lease
Written by lisandra on 08/17/2019
Horrible, they are professional [non-permissible content removed]. It is a shame that we can not give zero starts to this place. I'm just alerting all Leasing Customer about this method to take your money. I was Lease customer for almost 3 years, then a dealer Seller called promising great prices, and nothing to worry about if I trade in my old car. I did lease another Mercedes then the BIG SURPRISE ARRIVED!! A letter came from Mercedes Benz came with almost $ 3,000 dollars as a result of post lease inspections and excess of wear. We went to the dealer looking for an explanation and the Manager was expecting us very defensive, unprofessional talking to us in middle of a hallway in front all Dealership staff.He treated us horribly in a very sarcastic way. " You needed to read the disclaimers from previous lease made 3 years ago, that stated that you will be charged post lease" I told them that I will call to customer service and complain , he again said " Have a good day ". They made us to look like we did not have any rights, just go away and pay what you owe. We were very upset because the seller promised that will be a trade in, and never told us about post lease inspection. I spent the whole day crying out of frustration because of his behavior. We have been leasing cars for more than 12 years and never experienced a situation like this with any other dealer. Please make sure, when you do a trade in for your old lease to get in writing that you won't get any post Lease inspections. We will never put a feet in that place again

Dealer Response
Hi Lisandra, I’m sorry to hear of this experience you had with us. When you leased your new Mercedes from us, Mercedes Financial waived your last three remaining payments and we didn’t use your previous lease as any sort of trade in. We didn’t appraise it nor listed it on any paperwork. We informed Mercedes Financial that you turned your lease in and re-leased a new car through them. As far as you not owing anything on your car regarding the deal, that is all true. The remaining payments were taken care of. The condition of your car is something MBF determines and after picking the car up and inspected for excess wear and tear, you were billed for the damages. Most of the damage appears to be interior damages to the trim, door panels and such that need to be replaced according to MBF. I know you visited us and discussed the bill you received and I would like to talk with you further about this. Between MBF, myself and you I’m sure we can come to some happy resolution. I can be reach at 239-433-8300 every day. I hope I hear from you, thank you Jeff Gann General Manager
