Driving Force - Shockingly ********* behaviour

Poor service!!! I viewed a car about a week ago. I requested an offer to purchase (basically the quotation) and arranged my own finance. I knew the dealership would make some money from the bank if they assisted with the finance; however, I was getting a far better interest rate than they could not arrange. In the meantime, I had already secured insurance, sold my old car, and found a warranty for the new one.

While waiting for the proof of registration for my finance house to make the payment, out of nowhere, the salesperson insisted that I take a warranty with their preferred provider because they have a relationship with them and claim that this provider delivers. There was ample opportunity to inform me of this earlier and setting aside almost R30K for their preferred warranty was on.

The salesperson is also not interested in the fact that I plan to take out a warranty with my preferred provider. In my opinion, this is shockingly ********* behaviour, and I would advise thinking twice before engaging with them. Oh, and let’s not forget—apparently, you should be grateful because they make you feel like they're doing you a huge favour. Unless they’re incredibly busy (which, of course, they always are), you’ll need to chase them down for updates. So if you're looking to invest in something as important as a vehicle, perhaps think twice. Or even thrice.
