While waiting for my Equinox to be serviced I went out to the lot to walk around and see the new vehicles for sale. I was approached by a salesman that got me to look at getting out of my lease early and into a new one. After talking to the salesman, sales manager, and their finance person. the amount of money that I would have to come up with was way more than I was willing to do. I went home and looked at the Chevrolet.com website and did a lease comparison to what I had just been proposed. The numbers were as different as night and day. When I went back to discuss it with the sales manager all I got was excuses for why the numbers were different. If General Motors are going to publish a program on their website. I feel a dealer should be bound by it. The vehicle stock number that I used to calculate the lease online was the vehicle that I was quoted at the dealership. I understand that this is a business and that you need to make money, But a difference of $3500 upfront and $75 a month is pretty substantial on a 39 month lease.
The service department wasn't bad.
