Hello . My name is Yohanny Tavares. I have several Ford F 150 on order. My PREMIER FORD OF BAY RIDGE dealer does not want to receive my payment and does not want to give up my license plate and truck. I make a call to the owners of orders who are also being abused by naughty dealers who want to damage the image of a brand as prestigious as Ford. I also call on ford to take action . I moved to NJ and this dealer claims that he must be a person residing in NY who should receive the vehicle, but I think he has an interest in keeping my orders so that he can later sell them more expensively to other customers. My order number is 10862236.

Please help me share this message so it can reach Ford executives.

Dealers in Brooklyn NY are very tough to work with. They are profit driven and most likely want to upsell what is yours to someone else. I’d recommend moving to another dealer if possible and early enough. The out of state thing isn’t an issue ever but again it’s Brooklyn. The GM is a cranky pants so maybe try the owner.

While I have no problem with flipping for profit, dealers have every right to try to prevent it, within reason as that is basically their entire business model. I know my dealer, when they did their prioritizations, screened out all out of state buyers and ranked higher those who had done previous business with them. I thought that was super smart.

Hi al . The dealer wants $10,000 more, because the reserve and the check out for the plate are different names. But I am explaining that my cousin made the reservation , but the plate is mine .

What do you mean by 'the plate is [yours]'? As to the cousin part, dealers get penalized by Ford if their orders aren't delivered to person who converted the reservation to a verified order.

Well I decided to cancel the orders. I also see that it is a lot of money for a truck that you can not travel more than 100 miles with a boat. I recommend that you do not buy from this dealer, nothing. Ford informed me that the dealer is in control of the vehicles. Thanks to all for the help
