I thought I had a pleasant experience buying my Toyota from a local dealer a couple of years ago. But I went for a Tesla once I could afford it, and now I'm trading in my Prius for a Model S.
I went to get a replacement title from the DMV because I couldn't find it, and they said, sorry, there's a lien on this. Huh? I never financed the thing. Turns out the dealer titled it with a lien even though I didn't finance it. And now it's likely going to take several days to un-screw the situation, delaying my delivery for the Model S.
I mean, how do you screw that up? I wrote them a big fat check, and they still managed to send the thing off to Toyota Finance? Idiots! And of course this was long ago, so I don't even have anyone I can yell at.
Sorry, I just had to vent.
