Help....I received a call today that my Enclave that I ordered on 9/22 is in. I am suppose to pick it up this week. I was reviewing all the incentives with the sales person who WROTE in my contract $1000 off for the conquest in Sept. Anyway I received a call back saying they can not give me the $1000 off for the conquest only $500 because that is what they are offering for the conquest now. I will also receive the $500 cash back that started Jan 3rd. Can anyone tell me if they wrote it in my contract $1000 off for the conquest if they have to honor that? I am expecting $1500 off in total not $1000 - they said they have to go by current promotions - which I understand, but again I thought a contract is a contract? ANY ADVISE PLEASE...not sure how to handle this one!

Enclave CXL 8-pass, AWD, White Diamond Tri-Coat, Cashmere, Driver Conf Pkg, Lux Pkg, Tow Pkg. Delivery date 12/28/07. FABULOUS and BEAUTIFUL vehicle. Quiet,  Comfortable, Smooooth, Nice handling, Good Turn Radius, Great 3-row seating with unexpected leg room and reclining adjustments for 2nd row. Dealer has been fantastic - friendly, accomodating, and responsive - Bezema Motors in Norwood, MA. It was well worth the 3 month wait to get the fabulous paint job - white diamond tricoat. Recently owned vehicles: Suburban 1500 LT, Saab 9-3 Aero, Infinity G35X. My wife, who is never impressed by cars, immediately fell in love with the Enclave. We bought it to "share". But she wasn't interested in driving it for the first week. This weekend she was "forced" to drive the Enclave because our other cars were being used. She has now "claimed" the Enclave as her primary car. We also took friends out last night in the Enclave. They own the big Lexus crossover and a new Mercedes 500 CLS (replaced a BMW 740i). They were very impressed and "didn't know GM made such a beautiful, quiet, smooth, well appointed vehicle". I worked for EDS when it was owned by GM and a good friend ran IT for the GM truck division. I learned from him that when GM puts priority and design effort on a vehicle they do a great job (ex: Sierra Truck platform for Sierra, Tahoe, Suburban, Denali, Escalade, etc.). This new Lambda platform (Outlook, Acadia, Enclave - for now) seems to be one of these critical platforms for GM where they have gotten it right! Time will tell how well the Enclave maintains such a quiet smooth ride and whether it will be as reliable as our other vehicles (all three have been superb and the Suburban has over 100,000 miles). Hats off to GM/Buick for now! Simply put, I give the new Enclave rave reviews. |

Replying to: winedogs (Jan 06, 2008 8:26 am) Sorry, i digressed. I searched for the deals that were mentioned in the postings but could not find any for the Enclave. My dealer said that they did not know of any such deals for the Enclave but would honor any I found. The only words of advice I can offer is to report their "practices" to either the BBB or to your local news stations. I know that our Houston news station has exposed a local dealership with the bait and switch game on financing causing many to loose their cars and money. I will say that our dealer made a mistake with my bank on my financing that increased my loan a point but they made good on it (had it corrected) and gave me a loaner on top of it since our car was delayed so long. That is service the way it should be...  One last item, our salesman did say that a lady who was ordering an Enclave changed her order to be identical to ours after seeing our car before we picked it up. That was a nice complement at the end of a long car buying experience

Replying to: dinad0524 (Jan 05, 2008 2:15 pm) Dealer contract usually (don't have a copy of one handy) notes that you will receive the rebate/incentive that the manufacturer has at the time of delivery. If the incentives go up you will benefit, if they go down you will not. This really should have been made clear and emphasied when you signed the deal for future delivery. I doubt the contract wording would leave them open to honoring a manufacturer's rebate that has expired. |

Replying to: pjohns2654 (Jan 13, 2008 9:09 am) We're generally pleased with the vehicle except for the mileage: 13.8mpg (mostly around town). Wondering if this is a signal that there is something wrong. Hope your experience is better than ours. Cheers. |
