I have an update about the post I made earlier about my $100 deposit being credited back to my credit card.
1. The dealership was worthless in helping me out with this matter, even though they had at least 10 other people calling with the same question.
2. I called the Lightning hotline and eventually spoke to a human. The rep there told me that "after a certain amount of time deposits on the books get refunded when an order does not get filled."
3. I called my dealership back and let them know what the rep told me. I essentially got a, "why are you calling to bother me with this info" vibe.
4. About two days after speaking with the Lightning reservation person, I got an email from Ford saying that my dealership had been bought out and that the deposit I had for the Lightning was going to be credited to the credit card I used to place my reservation. There email also said that I still have my reservation and that I would not need to resend the $100.00.
I did not contact the dealership with this new info. They can figure it out on their own.
Finally, it is pretty unsettling to think I could lose my reservation spot because the dealership I reserved through was bought by another dealership.
