had my surgery today all went well till the drive home.. when we left we drove by the dealer where i was gonna buy my vibe when i'm released and they sold it they promised me they were gonna hold it and i put a deposit and have already purchased thousands of dollars in paraphenalia for it and they just gave it to me american history x style.

glad all went well with the surgery, and I'm sure they order you another one just like you wanted. it seems like money talks, you know?

Good to see the surgery went well. What did you have done?I would be pissed at the car dealer. The deposit pretty much was a binder on the deal for the car. Since they sold it out from under you they owe you a car. Time to do some hard wheeling and dealing for a replacement. And if they don't want to bargin with you ask them if they will like to bargin with a lawyer.

id be getting the same car -100$ a day for waiting or you walk with the moneysee how fast that truck brings it in

had surgery on the ulnar nerve that runs through my right arm, when my door caved in and shoved me over in my car accident my right arm busted my center console off and there was preasure on teh elbow making my hand constantly numb. As for the shady car dealer i'll be sending my brother to take back my deposit tomarrow and take business elsewhere.

Good deal on going else where. Hope you find what your looking for.I am getting an MRI on my shoulder tomorrow. I don't know how I did it but I did a good job of it for sure. I'll find out soon.Mike

eew gl on MRI, i hated setting in a tunnel for 2 hours hearing click...clickclick...click

get well soon and if the dealer sold a car you had a deposit on, then they are definitely not the kind of people you want to deal with, they screwed you so don't reward them with your business. What else is planned for the recovery, any other surgeries, physical therapies, etc?

Since they sold it out from under you they owe you a car.That sucks, big-time.I'm really old-fashioned when it comes to stuff like this.If we agree verbally on a deal, then I consider it valid, and in your case you put your money down, then these guys deserve to rot in hell.Are you comfortable with posting their name, as a warning to others?People need to be informed about who the crappy/dishonest dealers are.

You just weren't as important as a sure sale that day, I guess.

i'm glad your surgery went well, i hope it helps with the numbness.i'd definitely be taking my money elsewhere as well. the first vibe i found that i thought i was going to buy i ended up walking away from because the sales guy kept promising me he'd deduct the cost of the XM Radio (i didn't want it, and they dealership wouldn't remove it), but giving me quotes with the line item in place.

Glad to hear your surgery went well. Wishing you a speedy recovery! I hate MRI's as well. Especially when they inject the dye... ewww.As for your car, you're better off collecting your money and going elsewhere. Putting a deposit means that it's yours and no one else can take it. Seeing that the dealership went behind your back and sold it anyways proves them to be dishonest and who's to tell what else they might screw you over with? Good luck searching for a reputable dealership and getting your new car!
