BEING HARASSED BY MY SALESMAN!!
Soooo...I filled out my GM customer satisfaction survey that they emailed me a week ago. I was honest and praised the individuals that I felt did a great job and basically said that my salesman needed to work on his skills.
Well the dealership must have received a copy today and I get this irate phone call from my salesman. He is just going off on me!!! I attempted to explain why I answered the way I did and what I thought could have helped but he didn't want to hear anything I had to say. He's telling me that at the price I got the car for I shouldn't have any expectations basically and that he only made $100 off of the deal. I pointed out that he wouldn't have made anything if that car was still sitting on their lot and that regardless if someone spent 40k or 80k or 10k on a car, its still their hard earned money they are putting out and a certain amount of respect is expected. I pointed out that maybe sales isn't the best career for him. He started yelling at me again and using foul language so I simply told him that i was letting him go and to not call me back again. Man, so much for filling out those surveys. |

I'd call the manager of the dealership to let him know you got this call.

Thats why I do not fill them out. Some folks at my dealership are great and others suck.

You basically screwed the guy over and now he's mad. What did you expect? Those surveys are all a game and I'm sure they explained it all to you. You should have talked to the sales manager if you couldn't fill the survey out they wanted you to, at least it wouldn't have come as a shock to the person who sold you the car.

My salesman was excellent and he mentioned that I would be receiving a customer service survey in a few weeks and would appreciate if I gave him good marks on it. This was 12/09/09 and I still have never received one.

The sales people see every one of them. Unless you check the box that makes it anonymous. I doubt the sales manager is going to be helpful, as you also hurt him w/ the bad survey. I'm not defending them, I think it's incredibly poor taste to complain to a customer over a survey.
I've been angry in a similar fashion, but never would I call the customer to berate or confront them over it. That's kinda stupid. I would only caution you to not burn your bridges that way b/c you might need them one day. I hope you're not planning on servicing the car there?

1)The guy was calling me from the dealership. The way he was yelling and where his desk is at, I'm sure everyone heard him.
2)This guy has my address so I don't want him getting fired and then have him come hunting me down. Quote:

I don't think there's a manager on the planet who wouldn't fire a salesperson who confronted a customer over survey responses... and if the manager won't do it, betcha GM would compel him to do so! And before you feel guilty for "tattling," remember that you will be doing a LOT of future and potential customers a big service by getting this jackwad off of the GM lot, and... he's a total jackwad! Who confronts a customer over a survey response?!?
My vote? Rat him out, get him out! Do it now. |

Your salesman was in the wrong to call you unless it's to ask how you like your vehicle or a question about something on the contract, but calling you to trip out on you over the phone?? He needs to play hockey, not sell cars.
