Palm Springs Kia Complaint - Rotten Dealership & Sales People - Tried to purchase 2010 Kia
Tried to purchase 2010 Kia - Complaint
CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIFORNIA -- I have never had a horrible time in my entire car buying experiences as to what I have experienced recently at ((Palm Springs Kia in Cathedral City, California)). I was there on Sunday afternoon about 4:00 P.M. on June 20, 2010, shopping for a new car. Everything went well until a nameless car salesman who claims to be the General Manager in charge, who by the way refused to offer his name card started to bud-in from Eric, the first salesman who helped me and lashed out at me. He tried to hard (core) sell me by telling me to stop shopping around and how I was ignorant from not being informed about his so called "deal" and went on for about 5 minutes, arguing with me, the customer. Then, he got up from his small desk and started to approach me--trying to intimidate me in from of all sales representatives that he was in charge. I felt, he was being an immature ass from what I could tell and I informed him nicely that I don’t appreciate he being aggressive and I have the right to shop around as long as I want. Apparently, he did not like my comments and started to put his face front of me as if he was going to be physical. I could not believe his actions and I was in no mood to further argue with the punk and left the premises. I plan to take appropriate legal actions with the dealership, the person, and with Kia Motors of America. My advice to all Kia customers--(avoid)this dealership at cost. It is not worth wasting your time with the clowns at this dealership...

I don't think there is a law against the guy being a jerk so I'm not sure what kind of legal action you can take. You, of course, did the right thing by just walking out.

Unless you were physically assaulted, save your lawyer money and put it on your car.

I wonder if those tactics work on other customers. Good for you for keeping your cool and walking away. In this case, word of mouth will probably be more effective than a lawsuit.
