I went to Sarasota Mercedes to purchase my C300 after I paid off 45 months out of 48, after the salesman, Peter Bolduc, told me there was no pre-payment penalty.
First, they tried to rip me off on the loan, charging me 5.5 %. So I left went home and got my own loan on the Internet from Bank of America for 3.49%.
I went back the next day, worked out all the details, and then at the last minute, the salesman told me I had to write out an additional personal check for $1200 to Mercedes Benz Financial. He was vague about the reason; he just said "They say you owe them the money."
And then he showed me a printout showing that I owed the money to Mercedes Benz Financial. An assistant manager came over and also said, "You owe them the money."
So, I walked out again and called Mercedes Benz Financial. They told me they didn't know what the salesman was talking about. I did not owe an additional $1200."
This is larceny; plain and simple. People go to jail for less.
I don't know how the parent company of Mercedes Benz International lets their employees get away with something like this. I guess the people in Sarasota, including the manager, figure that the people in Sarasota are old and senile and will agree to anything to buy a Benz. But not me.
I made a complaint to the parent company over the phone. And I will go to another Mercedes Benz to purchase my leased car.
And I will tell everyone I know not to go to Mercedes Benz Sarasota if they don't want to get ripped off.
