  • Best deal on a Traverse ever

    Looks like the customer is getting one heck of a deal on his new Chevy....

    A Virginia man spent four hours in jail after purchasing a Chevrolet Traverse from Priority Chevrolet in Chesapeake, VA. The dealer's sales staff accidentally sold the SUV to Danny Sawyer for $5,600 less than they should have, and when Sawyer refused to sign a new, more expensive contract for the correct amount, the dealership called the local police alleging the buyer had stolen the vehicle. Law enforcement then picked Sawyer up and held

    Looks like he should be including the L/E agencies as well for the unlawful arrest ...

      if there is a contract of sale how in the hell can they arrest you. If they screwed up, they screwed up and should have sucked it up. A signed contract is just that, if a buyer tried to get out of it he/she would not have a leg to stand on...I hope this guy pins these douchebags to the wall although 2.2 million is absurd IMO, he should be compensated.

        2.2 million is a pittance compared to lost sales that will probably result from this fiasco. There is nothing more valuable than a good name, and they just blew it. If sales drop, their best plan of attack might be to change the name and hang out a big sign "under new management".

            The lawsuit says Sawyer originally purchased a blue Traverse on May 7, but took the SUV back the next day for a black one. The dealer's sales manager made the swap, allegedly without saying anything about a price differential between the two. Either way, Sawyer signed a final contract for around $34,000 when the vehicle he took home had an actual price of closer to $39,000. On June 15, Sawyer was taken into custody by police, but the Commonwealth dropped the charges after finding insufficient evidence to pursue the case.

                      with how ugly the traverse is, it's no wonder they arrested him - charge? felony poor taste, and (for good measure) a misdemeanor for failing to wear the pants in the family for buying a minivan rather than a Corvette.
