Seen that before, it did NOT go well.

My advice, was solve the problem ASAP, let it rest for a week or two, then if you INSIST, go ahead and speak your peace.

He told me, as well, that he had NO idea the car had a carfax history, as they were trying to move so fast to please the Hoopers, that they kinda' cut corners, and said it bit them i the arse. He told me he couldn't believe it - it was like throwing gasoline on a fire, and all they were trying to do was solve the problem. He mentioned the car optioned as it is was about $1300 higher MSRP when new, and was throwing the $4K on top of the deal.

I think everyone needs to take a deep breath, and think about this logically.

If YOU were caught in a situation even REMOTELY similar, would you appreciate the internet hanging you out to dry with only one side of the information?

People have called for the executioner, when the case hasn't even been started!

And I'm not on a high horse preaching down - I'm JUST as guilty, tweeting and facebooking my ass off to no end.
I initially threw the dealer under the bus for not immediately making it right but it was not making sense once I started looking at it rationally. BAD situation and could have been handled better (maybe) but NO WAY have I seen anything solid that justifies the angry slanderous way they have been portrayed. What a nightmare I could imagine to have this happen to me if I truly did try and help.

I guess it comes down to the dealer could have put this to bed with the assurance that a brand new car but to not allow them time to find a car is unfair. And, again, the Hoopers wanted a brand new car PERIOD.
