I got 0% financing on my 09 Redline

bob · 07-19-2008, 10:04 PM

OK, this is what happened. I went to the Philly dealer (45 minutes away) to purchase a car that was in Conneticut. The sales manager told the sales girl that they just got a RL in with everything that I wanted. I looked at the car. It was an 09. I went up 2 days later & bought it on the last day of 0%. My paper work said 09. The dealer called 2 days ago & said there was a problem with the paper work. The bank rejected our loan because 09's aren't eligible for 0%. I had to go back up to Philly to re-sign everything. The dealer made good on the original contract terms with a new loan from another bank. The loan officer said it was a 4K mistake on their part. They said that they had to "buy down" the loan from the new bank. I ask if anyone got in trouble over this & she turned red. They claimed that this has never happened before & they didn't relize that they had an 09 on the lot. I talked to a friend at a Chevy dealer & he said, usually in cases like mine ,the dealer will ask for the car back .

Will a R/L instument cluster work in your car? Most likely a repair person in the plant would know how to do this.
