-I purchased a 2021 Hyundai Palisade on…
-I purchased a 2021 Hyundai Palisade from Eastern Shore Hyundai Daphne AL on March 4, 2021
-Today is Friday, April 23, 2021, it has been 7 weeks since the purchase, and I still do not have my paperwork to get my tag.
-I have stayed in contact with this dealership regarding this matter
-Let me add that I financed a portion of the total and to this day, I have not received anything from Hyundai Finance
-This past Saturday April 17, Mr Sidney, Bell, finance manager, told my husband to make a payment right then, and gave my husband the necessary information.
- We made the payment as instructed At this point I am not sure that was wise as I have received nothing from the finance co.
-Yesterday, Thursday April 22, 2021 Mr Bell emailed some paperwork, complete with a signature, to me so I could get my tag. My printer would not print document with the signature. He had to re email a scanned copy. My printer was able to print with signature.
-I went to the tag office in Fairhope within 45 min of receiving this paper.
-the lady in the tag office began the process and after entering information and told me that the application I from Mr Bell had been VOIDED. Voided after he emailed the scanned copy it to me
-She also informed me that There will be a late fee due on this tag
- I angrily called Mr Bell and told him what happened and that I would be there in 10 min to pick up my paperwork
-I went to his office and I was mad. Raised my voice, and he told me I WILL JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR THIS PAPERWORK TO COME IN THE MAIL.
-At this point I did have some choice words, I agree that I should not have used those words.
-Today the General Manager Barry Terranova , just now, returned my call
A) told me he was standing there and heard the whole thing
B) told me I was cussing from the beginning... and that is why paperwork was withheld.
C) I disagree with the point my cussing began. I do agree that I Shoukd not have cussed.
D) Mr Terranova backed his managers decision to not give me the paperwork.
E) I hung up, I was far to mad, upset, angry, to continue the conversation.
- I am 64 years old, and I have NEVER had anything like this happen. Not once.
Long Story short
-Do not cuss in a place of business (and I agree)
This business, Eastern Shore Hyundai is punishing me and withholding my paperwork (I do not think that holding my paperwork back is is ok.)
- The first thing I said when I entered Mr Bells office is “give me my paperwork “. No cussing had occurred. I just would not agree that this was not his fault, I asked a few times, only let the words rip when told I’d have to wait for the mail.
-We chose this particular vehicle for travel. Travel to Colorado to see our new grandchild is on hold. I do not think I can safely drive this car across State lines with no tag.
I am back to where I was on the day of purchase. Waiting on the mail to come. NO TAG IN SIGHT.
