If that happened to me I would be sending an email to the GM or relationship manager of that dealership and telling them of this. Someone who is young and already buying nice vehicles is someone they like to keep around. Then again, I know some people on here have had poor experiences even with getting new expensive vehicles every few years so how they deal with your feedback should let you know if you should consider them for a purchase in the future or not.

Personally I have always had good luck just stating what happened and what I was not happy with. Don't threaten or anything like that and you might be pleasantly surprised.
