Grieco Beware
Written by Grieco Beware on 09/20/2020

I have purchased many cars over the years AND this experience was the WORST - I will be speaking with HONDA DIRECTLY because they don’t deserve to have the Honda banner. Where does one start : First : I knew exactly what I wanted, right down to the trim level and I had already shopped another local Honda dealer. Once the salesperson knew I had shopped HE REFUSED TO OFFER THEIR PRICING, instead he asked for the the other dealers pricing, such a low way of doing business, I say do your own work, not try to get the other dealers numbers, then I’ll compare and decide. Grieco didn’t want that, instead they wanted numbers, I finally gave in because I didn’t want to spend all day. Should’ve left their once I knew they were lazy and just wanted to feed off someone else’s hard work, I didn’t though. Next they didn’t want to honor their own trade in offer that was on their OWN WEBSITE - instead the manager said that ended on the 9/7, I was like well here it is on your website. So after crying they gave the trade number that was in their own ad. What happened now is FRAUD - They pulled my CREDIT WITH only a signature, dob and date, I NEVER FILLED OUT A CREDIT APPLICATION, WORSE YET, They now had my credit score and info AND NEVER HAD ME SIGN A PRIVACY NOTICE IN REGARDS TO MY INFORMATION. I mention the above because now they know my score is 787 and they bring out payment numbers, keep in mind they have my credit score so I’m qualified for top tier credit which is 1.9% and I was going to be financing 34,800 roughly. HERE’S ANOTHER FRAUDULENT ACT TO BEWARE OF - They have the salesperson bring me the payment of $700 a month for 60 months which. He says does that work for you - NO ! When one is borrowing the above amount at 1.9% the payment is around $610 monthly. ( every thousand borrowed at 1.9% equals roughly $17 a month for 60 months.)This dealership tried to slip one by BUT THEY DID IT TO THE WRONG PERSON. SOOOOO DISHONEST . I Walked out. Grieco embodies DISHONESTY!!!!! Tried to give a 8% interest rate with out showing the rate and just showing a payment to see if I would agree. THIS IS A SALES TACTIC that YOU AS A BUYER NEED TO BE AWARE OF!!! Friends - NEVER TELL CAR SALES WHAT YOU WANT FOR A PAYMENT - THIS IS A TRAP. You will get that payment or higher EVEN IF YOU QUALIFY FOR BETTER. STAY AWAY FROM GRIECO!
