Lexus of North Miami

RUN AWAY !!! My story began when I found a used ES350 I wanted to buy. My interaction was with Dulce a salesman at Lexus of North Miami . I commissioned an inspection of the vehicle, which unveiled scratches that had not been disclosed during my prior inquiries. Dulce quoted me a price higher than what was listed. I brought this to him, and he chose not to respond. I escalated to a manager, Rosaly. She assured me that the price would be honored, but her demeanor conveyed as if she were doing me a favor. I also expressed my dissatisfaction with Dulce, to which she stated that a different salesperson would be assigned. I sent the wire transfer on August 19th. I repeatedly requested the new salesman, Demetri, to communicate with their bank for confirmation, and every time, they said they would not do that as they receive funds daily, and there's no need for it. I even ended up reaching out to their bank myself, and they confirmed the transfer. I confronted Rosaly with the information and the date of money received on their dealership accounts; she said, "The payment has been received." That was on the 28th of August. It took them 8 business days to confirm the receipt of the funds; this raised suspicions. I sent seven emails to various managers. I have not received a response regarding the funds . I made six calls. I managed to reach ALFRED UTSET, the pre-owned sales manager. Unfortunately, He answered the call prepared to defend his employees and did not listen to me. I was about to express my concerns, but he replied, "You sent an inspection company, and they know everything, so you shouldn't have any concerns!" I had to clarify, saying, "Did you even hear me? I said 'concerns,' do you know what that means? I'm not talking about the car; I want to discuss the transfer and how your employee treated me, and I want to know if they did the maintenance I requested." He didn't answer my questions and continued to speak forcefully and condescendingly. I sent emails inquiring about when I could coordinate with the shipping company to pick up my car. I asked when they would refund the deposit since I had sent. However, Demetri did not respond to these questions. He simply replied that everything was on process. I reached Rosaly to inquire about the refund status. She responded, claiming to be helping me by expediting the refund process. She stated, "Normally, we refund the money after delivering the car!" She emphasized her cooperation. Interestingly, in one of Rosaly's emails dated August 17th, she mentioned, "Please be aware that the deposit made with the card will be refunded promptly upon receiving the wire transfer for the full amount." So, either the content of her email or the content of her text message contradicts the truth. during the shipping phase, they provided no assistance and stopped responding, causing me significant inconvenience. This frustrating experience felt unprofessional and unethical. Imade it explicitly clear that I expected to be informed when the shipping company received the car. but they have not contacted me, resulting in delays. To clarify, these are not allegations; this is simply my personal experience, outlining the difficulties I encountered over a whole month, including a staggering 182 emails exchanged with them to conclude a deal; it should have raised concerns at the management level, but it seemed like no one cared. Please don't waste time telling me sorry. I'm well aware that you're already informed about what happened, and most managers are familiar with my emails and calls. Let's not play games or pretend that you really want me to call to resolve this issue. There's no need to keep up this facade.
