Dealership Sales Review

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

DO NOT waste your time with these people. 90% of the reviews on Google are fake; take a look at yelp to see the honest terrible reviews of this place. After purchasing a $50k car from Indy Auto man it took nearly 100 text messages and many unanswered phone calls to get a $5,150 warranty, that was never discussed with me, removed from my purchase. The $5,150 warranty (exact amount of my down payment) was simply labeled “portfolio” on the bill of sale to hide in there. Neat trick. This process took 2 months. All I wanted was a cancellation confirmation, instead I couldn’t get a phone call back. I was also conned into paying ~$750 in fees for “mandatory catalytic converter etching” - turns out that work was never done in the first place. I was told to go to the dmv 2 weeks after purchase as my title would be mailed there, after wasting more hours of my life at the DMV it turns out they hadn’t sent the title. I had to take another vehicle to work since you can’t drive a vehicle with expired tags on a military base. They couldn’t get the title work done until after my temp tag expired. Last but not least I was promised a second key to the vehicle. I agreed to the full retail price (PLUS paying their $750+ in fraudulent extras) because the comfort access keys for this particular bmw is around $750 total as the dealer has to program it. I was told the key would be shipped out the next day, that was a lie. I was told weeks later the key was shipped, that was a lie. I was then told they sent the key to the wrong address (how do you mess that up?) and finally when an envelope shows up 3.5 months later with a hole in it and a $1.50 stamp I’m told that “Indy auto man held up their part of the agreement it must’ve got lost in shipping” Apparently shipping an envelope without insurance that most likely didn’t have the key in it (oldest trick in the book for a SHADY DEALERSHIP) is upholding their part of the deal…and that it’s not their fault since it wasn’t on the “we owe” even though my salesman told me specifically not to put it on their “because we’ll just mail it to you, you can trust me.” After weeks of back and forth I was finally offered $350 towards a new key, keep in mind this is about half of what was required. However if I accept this I needed to sign a “goodwill agreement” - which is fine. However the non-disparagement clause on the goodwill agreement stating that I could never in a public forum say a bad thing about Indy auto man was a not fine! I decided to not give up my freedom of speech for $350 in hush money and rather warn potential customers to look elsewhere! I can deal with everything else I spoke about, but when you make a promise about something so simple as a second key just make it right. It’s not that hard to keep your word. You could even use the $750 you already charged me for work not completed! Bottom line: Go elsewhere, don’t trust a word they say. You’ll regret it!
