re: Scammed by auto dealership...What should I do?

Yes, it was.

I know that I signed all of the paper work.

I've purchased 3 other vehicles from 3 different local dealerships in the last 7 years. I've never once had a finance guy repeatedly bold face LIE to me.
I even asked him about canceling the warranty after the fact, to which his reply was wait 4-6 months and I would get 100% back (which is a LIE - according the the warranty contract). He said it was a "loophole".

It is my own fault for falling for this. But I think that others potential customers should at least be aware of these types of practices. From what I gather researching this practice online, this is common for dealers to do. If recognized, it should be reported to the state attorney general and FTC. (Both of which I plan on doing after I get the warranty cancelled.)

Was just looking into if the OT had any good advice.

Report them to the cfpb

Not sure how much research you did before going in but you should have known the financing incentives the manufacture was offering before going in and had a fall back preapproved offer from a bank or credit union.

At 750+, you should have been able to get under 4% all day from a bank but manufacturers are offering way under that. I bought 2 Honda in the last 2 years both at .9%.

Oh yeah and 79 mths

You took out a 79 month loan on a used Chevy Taverse?

Why didn't you just say no?

You fell for the ole' "coupons" line?

Short answer = I don't think it was illegal, wrong but not illegal.

Also, if you plan to make a big deal about it to the dealership, I would not plan to have services performed there.

I never walk into a dealership without knowing what financing I can get elsewhere and I never tell the Finance Manager what I can get elsewhere. I simply tell him/her to give me your best rate.

The only way I would do 79 months on a vehicle is if I had other high interest debt that I wanted to tackle. 3.29 seems great for the loan term, which leaves me wondering what you could have got on a 60 month or less term.

You didn't get scammed. The extended warranty may be the best thing you ever done. You evidently have cash flow issues and that's fine. The traverse is the same vehicle as the Acadia and Buick Enclave. My wife owned both and you probably will have your share of problems before 79 months are up. I'm pretty sure you would have more than $2700 worth of problems and sensors malfunctioning in 6.58 years. Now you will not be on the turn on some engine lights list when the dealerships are slow. I'm almost convinced they screw you over on purpose thru onstar.

Always have your deal done before you talk to the F and I guy. They absolutely will straight up lie to your face, not all, but plenty will.
I'm 52 and I have bought plenty of cars and they will still try it on me.

You may have some recourse legally, IDK.
