Salesman to Customer: You Got Screwed
A woman who bought a car at a dealership in the southern state of Tennessee got more than she bargained for when she turned on the car's messaging system.
A recording informed her in coarse language that she had just gotten a raw deal but would nonetheless be happy in the long run with her expensive purchase.
The local television station WTVF reported that several former managers who worked at the Bill Heard Chevrolet dealership said the message was par for the course and was often left by salesmen who knew they had ripped off customers.

BTW, if it was you that got taken advantage of, I highly doubt you would see any humor in it.

The dealer is now being investigated by the TBI for there "very questionable" practices.......they have been on the news for weeks now with more and more awful things they have done to clients.......

Thats completely saddening. I agree with what Jeff said, and I am thankful I know some people in sales (both locally and form the net) that are respectable and do something I completely believe in, client satisfaction is number 1. Jeff and Ed are two of the best.

I would do enough research before making life's second biggest investment to avoid being ripped off. Furthermore, how can you say "they should just go ahead and shut them down" when all you know is that they're guilty of capitalism and tasteless practical jokes?
Being a **** isn't illegal. Thank God....

Hey,
It wasn't a FORD dealer, what would you expect out of a Chevy Dealer, other than a formal Scre##ng.
The GM higher ups probally encouraged this message to be left to the customer.
All the while they were having a Cig,??????????????????

If you think this is cool, then explain one benefit of it. And no, bad press isn't a plus. I'm sure it's not bringing customers to bang on their doors... at least not unless they're using sledge hammers and baseball bats.

The salesman definately needs a kick in the ding-ding.
