All I can say is wow. Certainly will keep Huling on my list of places never to do business with.

At first I was as Chris was someone I've known since we were...13? (middle school in Sequim).
Made no sense that would happen on his watch and found out it didn't, he left Huling as General Manager of all their dealerships before this happened because of some goofyness he just wouldn't put up with.

Glad he didn't get caught in this mess but we had our own weirdness with Huling pontiac when John got home from deploy - and of course, Chris was on vacation so sales knew we didn't have protection. Bought from Kirkland instead, now that they are tip-top we are glad we switched on buying the Vibe.

They hit the skids when they hired a particular sales manager for Pontiac two years ago. If they had no qualms then on screwing over a veteran, this doesn't surprise me and hope it shuts the doors. I hope the guys involved become prison wives
