GM terminating about 1,100 dealerships

There are thousands of stories like that. Ford, at least makes a good effort to repair the problems. How many car companies would send an EE from Detroit to fix it.

The other side of it, though, was that when it was fixed, the Ford dealership offered us $10K on it, when trade-in was $15K. They said that because it had needed the EE, it was devalued, regardless of the problem being fixed.

According to the Lonely libs everything is peaches and cream.

I forgot a chicken was supposed to be in every pot and a pie on the counter when Obozo was elected ?

Right now people are living off crumbs and Hamburger helper if that and also we have a President that tells other countries that we are ignorant and stupid.

Thank you Mr President but kick me again in britches.

You should have taken advantage of the Lemon law.
Aar dealer will always devalue the price of a car that you want to trade in, and over value the price of the car you want to buy.
That's the name of the game. The salesman was feeding you pure Bull Sh*t.
You always have the option of going somewhere else to buy your car.
I had a Chrysler dealer offer me $500.00 for my New Yorker on a trade.
I told him I could get at least $2500 for it by selling it myself.
He said that would never happen.
He was correct, I got $2400 for it.
I would have gotten the $2500 but while I was talking to the guy, his wife was in the kitchen with my wife and talked her into the lower the lower price.

We tried. We even had the state's AG on it for more than a year before they told us that they give up.
