So instead of hurting the dealership, what you DID do was HURT a 10 year old child who has been working his heart out to help his cousin and friend who are autistic and in the special Olympics. I know this is a terrible thing that has happened to all parties with this car but we as human beings really need to stop and think before we do things and exactly who we will be affecting when we do these things. I hope hurting a 10 year old who is just out to help others has made who ever wrote that post feel like a real man :(

I'm going to give you a benefit of the doubt and assume you aren't a troll so I'll entertain you with a response. I doubt the 10 year old will ever read any of that. And the only comment on there asked if he'd be happy when they wrecked his truck into a poll. (I laughed and doubt that he'd be hurt over that.) But that is awesome that the kid is doing that. There may have been more, but most comments were deleted instantly anywhere on the page. My personal favorite was someone asking if they had any all wheel drive vehicles. Trolls will be trolls. Find a sense of humor. The dealership is "trying to resolve the problem" but in this day and age if you screw up bad enough it's going to get out there. A lot of businesses forget that. I can 100% guarantee that when this happened they figured the worst that would happen is that the issues would go local. They didn't think it would go national and viral like it did. I've been screwed over by dealerships in the past and their responses are usually "not our problem." Is the dealership getting what they deserve? Maybe, maybe not. I'd be seeing if I could sue the rogue employee if I owned that dealership though over the amount of bad PR he created. (I'm not a lawyer so that may not be possible.)
