US automobile dealership are by federal and state regulations scummy for certain. They run their dealerships like tyrants. And Florida has many bottom feeders on the used car sales side for sure. I was semi-retired in Naples Florida in 1999, and walked into the Germain Lincoln dealership there...
Different strokes for different folks. My dealership has only treated me fair and square. Again, time will tell. I just hope OP takes the time to keep us informed if the final result.

It is pretty sad that anyone would ever have to have a signed purchase agreement. Any dealership that requires that is not worthy of our business if they cannot stand behind their word.
I have read all too much victim blaming on this thread. I was fortunate to buy mine a day after I was told by my sales person that it was ready for pickup. When I called the person I was told to contact that I was ready to stop by, I was told it was not ready. When my sales person sent me...
