I recently purchased a car from Chaney and he builds absolutely NO rapport with his customers. What kind of customer service is that?? He has his trained employees scripted and giving mediocre statements when I call in. I was basically forced to sign a paper for a car that I did not even get to check. We test drove it for 2 minutes and were not allowed to see under the hood til after signing the papers. He knows how desperate his customers are for a vehicle, and knows exactly what to tell his puppets to tell his customers. Now I have a car that I just spent an extra $1500 on, and it still needs work! I want a trade-in!

sorry dan,but i don't know who you dealt with at chaneys,but obviously it wasn't james himself.i have been a greatful customer of chaneys for the last 2 almost 3 years,james has went way above and beyond his title as a car sales man.when i first started my purchase with him it was sapposed to be for 18 months well due to financial problems my contract went on for almost 3 years and never once did james attempt to repo my kia or change his business with me. during my contract and even after james did repairs and all on my kia that was not even under contract.also there is not many car lots who allow you to put a car in lay away as what james allows,i have known him to work with many people so again im not sure who you dealt with,but im sure had you went to james with your problem he woulda solved it for you in a way you woulda been satisfied with...all james has asked of his customers is to not avoid him if your in a financial strain but to keep him posted,and also there is NO other car lot that will let you skip a december payment (with no late fees) so that money can go on a childs christmas.SO PLEASE BEFORE YOU POST JUST A NASTY MESSAGE KNOW YOUR FACTS.

well here is my chaney story i was 7 days late with my payment due to irs fraud going on so he called me friday i told him i was waiting on refund and so on i would pay saturday he said ok why when saturday came the tow truck was at my house trying to tow my car.... so i called police of course he didnt answer phone i was willing to make three payments over the phone.. so he gives me some bs talking bout he put some lein on my tag with the courts. and he had to have car in his possesion to take it off so he drove to my house and drove my car back to avon park mind you he is closed sun& mon so tuesday i have 3 car payments and a 385 dollar fee to stop the lein on my tag which he was lying about that. this mf adds on 800 more dollar for towing fees saying i gave his tow truck driver a hard time. so i leave come back that monday( oh i forgot to say i seen my car sitting on the front lane of cars ready for sale that tues.)i have all the money he asked for plus 3 payments of my own , 385 for an phony fee, 800 for towing, he sends his slaves out to tell me he needs 7000 cash if i want my car..........or he can put me and another car with cheaper paymnts but the reason i have to pay cash for my original car is cause i gave the tow truck man a hard time but yet you want to put me and a different car bs..... so i hired an attorney.. NEVER RENT FROM CHANEY BIG A$$ LIARS

Unfortunately every other car dealer in the area knows what Chaney's is doing and knows how corrupt they are. Chaney's has a real racket going on and has been able to skirt by. Everyone is right in that they cater to the people who want a new car so badly that they ignore all of the warnings. No one counts on it being them that gets the rug pulled out from under them but things happen and when you are talking about NO leeway, well you are destined for a fall. Chaney counts on that and has his plan into effect-how fast the car will resell and what he can pocket on a newer deal. If everyone who has their car repoed finds out about the law saying they are entitled to get back their money, Chaney might have to reorganize his business. He may have to play by the law and make a living instead of a killing. It really is a shame that he casued so much heartache for others but to him, his customers are all trash who deserve what they get. He does not have any remorese for being obnoxious and cruel to anyone who stands in his way. I really hope all the people who have been victimized by these crooks demands and gets their money back. Belive me Chaney is not going to hand it over to you but take him to court and file all the complaints you can. Not only will he be forced to return the money but he may also be run out of business since he is knowingley violating consumers rights. We not only have gross neglect of breaking the law but we also have gross discrimination practices. All of this publicity will make the proper eyes look his way. IT is about TIME.

They do not keep their word, when you go make a payment commitment. Then they expect you to be responsible for all tjhe over head. All they have to do is be honest. Even the employees are pathetic, they don't care about the promises or contracts, all they care about is receiving a paycheck. Remember all that you give comes back to you, you as employees need to act and be honest and treat people right.

This one tops the cake. My husband went in to check on the price of a car and they told him they would finance no problem. He told them we did not want the financing and would pay cash for the vehicle. Immediately they said they did not accept cash and would only finance if we financed through them. This story alone should confirm everything written above. He is a total scammer and wants everyone to screw up. DON'T BUY FROM HIM. HE SHOULD BE PUT OUT OF BUSINESS.
