Default Does this make any sense????

The dealer called and told my dad his vert was in. He went up there and the car had a P top (which he didn't order), no polished wheels(which he did) and no Z-51 on it either.They told him GM is just sending out cars how they want and they will try next time they can!!!!!!! anyone ever heard of this before.
Thanks
Derek

I wouldn't accept it if it didn't have what I wanted. Sounds like they gave his allocation to someone else. He needs to tell the dealer he knows better, then drop that dealer and buy from someone else, like a forum dealer.

It is either not his original order, or whoever put it into the VOMS botched it. This has all over it! I would also be wary of how their other practices may be i.e. service. Be wary

Any forum dealers want a 2004 Comm edit Vert w/ 7K miles and a $59K sticker.They were giving him $41.5 on a trade and GMS so it was a good deal.

Sounds to me like the dealer screwed up the original order not the factory.

I would avoid this dealer like the plague...If they are trying to pull this, what else might they do?

Someone at the dealership screwed up the order and now they are blaming the factory. It would better if they were honest and upfront about the issue.

Sounds like someone dropped out of a deal and they are trying to pass it off as your unit

It happened to me. You can check my thread "need help-vert and NAV". My vert came in and I took delivery last night and no NAV. I got the history report and it looks like the factory nixed it in November. So, they (the dealer) had 3 months to put it back--doubt if the dealer even realized that it was missing. I called GM tonight. I want NAV as ordered for $1400 installed. Good luck with yours.

I would love to know the answer to this... If they can retrofit the NAV, that answers a lot of forum questions...
