My vehicle was repurchased by GM recently. The dealership that handled the transaction was vandergiff Chevrolet in arlington, tx. They did not respond to my calls. They ignored my request. They did not follow through on the paperwork required by GM, and they lied to GM and myself regarding filing the "warranty' with GM resulting in additional time that I had to wait in order to have the vehicle paid off to my loan institute and the remaining funds to me so that I could acquire another vehicle.
