Sheehan Buick GMC
Dealership Sales Review
I went w/ my 16 yr old daughter to Sheehan dealership to look at pre-owned vehicles for her first car. We went on 1/21/23 and spoke with salesman Yad Aflalo. We went to his office and he showed us his inventory on his computer. We saw a few that might work which he wrote down to show us. One, in particular, was a 2019 GMC Terrain listed on the computer for $22,900. We asked him what the best price he could do on it and he introduced us to his manager, Dana Fishvien, who said the best he could do was $21,900 with no dealer fees. It was more than what we were initially looking to spend. We went home and decided to do the deal so we called back Yad an hour after meeting with him. We told him we were interested and he said he would call me back. When he called back he said that he made a mistake and the car was now $23,900. I saw with my own eyes on his computer the original price and we spoke to the manager who gave us the final price. I asked him, "how could the price go up $2,000?" He said he got confused and then tried to blame me for asking to see "too many cars" (3) and that he got the prices mixed up. I told him that seeing a few cars should not be too much for a car salesman and that to pull a "Bait and Switch" is not professional nor ethical. I asked to speak with the manager, Dana, who I met at the dealership. Yad refused to give me his direct phone number and told me that Dana would call me. I waited 2 days and the manager never called. On 1/23/23 I decided to call Clint Thomas, the general manager of Sheehan dealership. I left messages and never got a call. On 1/24/2023 I decided to go to the dealership and meet with Clint Thomas in person. I explained to him my experience and how unprofessional his staff was. No one tried to call me back, including him, to resolve the issue. They used dishonest tactics to try and sell their vehicles. The owner of the dealership even stood by and heard my whole conversation with him and did nothing.
