Used Car Reconditioning Center Reopens In Winston-Salem, NC

Posted on by

Frank Myers Auto Maxx is excited to announce the grand reopening of their Automotive Reconditioning Center.

Frank Myers Auto Maxx is pleased to announce that they have reopened their Automotive Reconditioning Center to serve Winston-Salem used car owners. The completely redone recon center will continue its fine tradition of customer service and automotive excellence that has made Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem industry leaders.

The new reconditioning center, also known as a detail shop, officially opened on July 1, 2010 and is located in Winston-Salem. Winston-Salem consumers who want their used car, truck or SUV professionally detailed both inside and out, can drive to Winston-Salem and save.  

Frank Myers Auto is also excited to be the first in the Winston-Salem, Greensboro or High Point area to offer professional detailing to the public in a state-of-the-art reconditioning facility.

Robert Thomas, Manager of the new and improved center, stated, “I believe that our new Automotive Reconditioning Center will be a very popular addition to the community and for Winston-Salem residents that want to keep their car looking nearly new. You can probably get a low price from someone who just opened a shop and is really hungry. But you don’t know anything about the shop and you don’t know who’s in your car. The sweetness of low price never equals the bitterness of low quality. We guarantee the quality of our work PLUS we have competitive pricing.”

In a recent MSN Autos survey, detailed shops recommended locating a shop that has been in business for a few years and has an established reputation. While the detail shop at Frank Myers Auto Maxx has been 80% redone, it has been in business for more than 15 years.

‘Aggressive Pricing’ Car Dealer Scams Reaching All Time High, Tough Economy to Blame

In an attempt to boost car sales over the summer months, more dealerships in the Triad area are turning to ‘aggressive’ and deceptive pricing models to meet financial goals, warns auto industry advocate Tracy Myers. Cars offered well below invoice, or even for free, are part of this growing scam.

Dealer Scam Alert in Winston-Salem, NC

Winston-Salem, NC, June 30, 2010 –

With summertime sales accounting for up to 75% of a car dealer’s annual profit, more local dealers are turning to deceptive pricing scams to recoup losses from the dwindling economy, warns auto industry advocate and owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem, NC.

One such popular scam this year seeks to lure buyers in with aggressive pricing significantly below the factory price or the prices of competing dealers.   Once the buyer is sold on the vehicle, the dealer then asks for an excessive down payment or attempts to pack the loan with aftermarket products to recoup the front-end loss.

“As part of this scam, dealers are offering vehicles for sale well below the invoice price with the hopes of ‘making it up’ on the back end by way of aftermarket products or services,“ warns Myers. “There are even some cases where the prices offered are false and simply represent a large down payment,” he adds. 

Avoiding Summer Scams

So what can consumers do to avoid scams this summer at their local car dealership? Myers offers the following suggestions:

  • Remember that all dealers get their cars from the same places: factories, auctions or customer trade-ins. If one dealer is advertising the same vehicle for a much lower price than another dealer, you should look elsewhere.
  • If you suspect any negative marks on your credit, seek out a dealership that specializes in working with people who’ve made a few mistakes in the past.  They are less likely to penalize you financially or treat you like a “credit criminal” – which is slang for dealers who only want to sell to customers with perfect credit.
  • If your car is paid off, you should expect at least the minimum fair market value at trade-in time. In most cases, if a dealer is offering below market value pricing on the car you’re buying, you should expect they’ll offer you below market value for your trade-in as well.

Getting Help

To assist Triad area consumers in avoiding car scams this summer, Frank Myers Auto Maxx is offering a free community service through the month of July in which a manager will personally review the details of any car ad or proposed deal to help buyers decipher it and understand the fine print. 

This service is for educational purposes only and consumers are not required to buy from Frank Myers Auto Maxx to receive free help.

“We’re offering this service as a way to give back to the community and truly help people avoid getting ripped off this summer. We’ll tell you ‘deal or no deal’ so you can be confident that you’re making the right decision with zero pressure on our part, “says Myers. “That’s what being a small business in the community is all about.”
