Give them a reasonable amount of time to provide a new car (30 days?) and your trade in price will not change a cent!! It is really the 1st dealership that made the mistake and they should be the ones to fix it.

I've been trying, to get this resolved. I want to remain a Chevrolet owner that much I do know, its just that this shouldn't have happened. As long as I get what I originally asked for, I'll be fine. I've kept my cool, simply showed everyone respect because the last thing I want is for anyone to say I was in the wrong.

I have yet to find a decent one. My next purchase will be through Becky since I have heard nothing but good things about her and that dealership. Keep in mind I live 2000 miles away but if that's what it takes to find a good dealership I will make the drive!

Hey at least that didn't sell you a "new Camaro" that was wrecked and didn't disclose it to you!

Me and her have been talking ever since the start of this. She's been so helpful. She gave me an option today which i'm heavily thinking about depending on what happens with this.

I would recommend walking into the NavyFed ASAP and talk to your representative and let them know you were misrepresented with the facts and what recourse you have available. I would also look into contacting the State Attorney's office about your experience. If you can get this matter wiped clean, I would wait until Spring to try again because you could probably get a better deal for a '13 since it will be at MY end, you'll have more of your original loan payed off, and save a little more for a down payment.

I thought about this, But I'm dead set on the 1LE. I could wait I suppose but the fact that I came this close, pulled the trigger only to realize that someone dropped the ball. Part of me feels like its mine, after all the buyers order was filled out and the last thing I left the dealership was saying that "It'll be here on the 26th".

The original dealer has documents with you and it's official right? You could easily have a lawsuit. So, maybe if that is mentioned they will get their act together.

They should have the documents unless they got rid of them? I do however kept my buyers order and other paperwork that was given to me.

I would like to look into this for you. Please PM me with your first and last name, address, phone number and involved dealerships. Please indicate the original selling dealership that you went to first so that we can decipher the concern.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

PM replied. Thank you, sir.

Although it would be unlikely that a court would award you specific performance (getting the actual car), but the dealer may be required to honor the deal with an equal substitute. Further, if the dealer knew that you were relying on the deal to your detriment (selling your stuff in anticipation of the deal being honored), you may have a detrimental reliance case too, but not nearly as strong as a breach of contract case. Unfortunately, this would takes months and you appear to be in a hurry, so I'd accept this as a lesson learned. Good luck.

Payment was given, they accepted it and it was left in there possession for 6 days. All I was required to give them was $381 in cash on my return from out of town once the car had been delievered which should have been on 26 December.

If for some reason the actual car can't be in my hands. I'll be happy with a similiar vehicle. I want to stay Chevy. This to me isn't a case where I hate the brand. I love the brand. I was in a situation which shouldn't have happened, period. I was the consumer who walked into the dealership, made a deal. Deal was signed, payment was handed over. Whatever issues the two dealerships I was unaware and frankly being the consumer its not really my business. I kept my promise, which was the check I handed to them. They didn't keep theres. I'm not asking for a free anything, I'm not bashing the dealer, I'm not acting crazy over it. I will gladly pay for it, but I'm willing to pay what me and what my buyer order said as I was financied for the VIN specific vehicle.
