I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS DEALERSHIP TO MY WORST ENEMY. I've purchased a number of cars throughout the years at varying dealerships but this is by far the WORST customer service experience I've ever had purchasing a car or otherwise. I purchased a CX-3 in May and thought everything was fine. Fast forward to a few months later, and I had another driver take a left hand turn into my car. Once I had to start dealing with the insurance company, I realized that when I was setting up my insurance during the purchase, I had been provided the INCORRECT VIN NUMBER. I found myself in a situation where TD Insurance had to verify that I had not provided them with the incorrect information intentionally. At this point I'm thinking to myself, it's probably just an oversight. Once I called Sundance Mazda, they denied that I had been provided inaccurate information and that it was probably my SHADY insurance company - TD is not some random insurance company I found googling. I end up in a situation where I cannot get my car fixed and REALISTICALLY is not even REMOTELY my fault. Fortunately, I found an email that Sundance Mazda had sent me verifying they had provided me with the incorrect information. It took me approximately a MONTH (not including the time it took to fix) to sort this out - meanwhile I have a BRAND NEW car that I cannot drive. Even better, once the VIN number was corrected on my insurance, MY INSURANCE PREMIUM WENT UP. ALL I asked from Sundance was to have my lifetime oil change package, which had not been used, to be refunded because I did not want to deal with this ATROCIOUS dealership anymore. They refused to refund me and offered me a $300 credit - this would barely cover the increase in my insurance premium and then a $500 credit. I did NOT want a credit, I wanted to avoid this place for the rest of time. I said I was not interested, and wanted to see what options I had with a lawyer at which point they STOPPED taking my calls/replying to my emails. After tracking down the GM over a period of a few days, he had the AUDACITY to tell me that he wouldn't have even OFFERED me the $500 credit and that it was TOO much compensation. He then tried to intimidate me by telling me that he had no interest in talking to me further and that our lawyers could get in touch. After months of dealing with this COMPLETE AND UTTER GARBAGE, I needed to get an oil change and gave in. Keep in mind I refused to take the credit because I did not want to indicate to them that it was SUFFICIENT for the complete headache they caused me. NOW, I went to get an oil change and was having some issues with my vehicle's sensors. I pick up my car, and the service light is on, there is a new sticker staying I need to get an oil change in 800km, which was less than when I dropped it off this morning. Once again, could be an oversight, as long as the oil change was completed, I could potentially look past the light for the weekend. HOWEVER, NONE OF THE SENSORS IN MY CAR ARE NOW WORKING - I came to find this out as I was making lane changes and noticed that the lights were not on/the car was not beeping. Fortunately, I continue to shoulder check regardless of all the sensors in my car because I'm not looking to cause an accident, but I could have easily relied on the sensors as an indicator and put myself in a dangerous situation. I am taking a road trip this weekend and MAGICALLY have to find time in my 14 hour work day tomorrow to go back to get this resolved. I called Sundance and their best recommendation was to put me through to the GM's line (the same person who treated me like TRASH initially) where I had to leave a distraught voicemail and will likely have to wait until tomorrow.
SERIOUSLY, I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH - AVOID THIS PLACE. This has been completely and utterly stressful and I legitimately HATE this car now and am stuck with it for however many years. read more
