You do you Ripperz, but what is the difference between dealers gouging people and us doing it to others? I mean the dealer has employees, their families, etc;. It's a free country, mostly, but to me it makes no difference whether I'm gouged by the dealer or you? Its stories like these that makes those dealers feel justified. Interesting is all. OP is Ford making you wait at the end of the line or priority order?
So the dealership lined up another one for ya? Or do you have to buy another one all over again and go through the same process?
Difference is I am recovering from a loss and my buyers are informed. They get the vehicles for less money from me then they would from the dealer.
From what my dealer told me and what ford corporate said they can order me a new one exactly the same as mine like I want and attach the buyback number to the order and get it build and shipped as 1st priority
One buyback I did with Audi ended up with a lemon title and it showed up on carfax. So it will affect its price.
Wow, that is good to know they can do that if the car is an issue. If you would not mind, could you indicate what was wrong with it (i.e. always bricked and could not get fixed)?
I've kinda gone back and forth over this issue. Thing is, dealers have been screwing over customers for decades, even to the point of leveraging lobbyists in state legislatures to make sure they get all kinds of kickbacks and leeway and muscle out direct-to-sales makes like Tesla. Because of this, while part of me wants to say "shame on you" to flippers, I actually have zero issues with the fact that for possibly the first time in history, we as the ordinary customers may be able to sell at a profit rather than the usual massive loss. Undoubtedly, this will change back to the status quo whenever the supply chain issues are resolved, so I will not hold any grudge against any individual who decides to take advantage of this once in a generation opportunity to flip a vehicle for a profit.
Yes, the dealer will not be taking it back themselves.
Iāve had a couple posts about it but itās an issue with the front camera and no safety features work. Canāt use cruise, adaptive cruise, blind spot, lane centering, pre collision, literally nothing. Spent many many times in the dealer and lots and lots of parts.
