No H3 for me :-(

[Jerry in MI]

I have been lurking around for a while and I was hoping to make my first post soon with pictures of my new H3. But it hasn't worked out that way.

I ordered an H3 on the 3rd of January:

Shadow Green Metallic
Ebony/Light Cashmere
Adventure
5 speed
Sunroof
MP3 Radio w/Monsoon
Black Tube Steps
Brush Guard
Trailer Equip

The Dealer said 6 weeks, so I gave the dealer a $500 deposit to place the order. During the conversation the dealer said that they should know in about 3 weeks when it would ship.

So at the end of the 3rd week I call the dealer. Dealer said they haven't heard anything.
At the end of the 4th week I call the dealer. Dealer said they haven't heard anything.
At the end of the 5th week I call the dealer. Dealer said they haven't heard anything.
At the end of the 6th week I pay the dealer a visit. Dealer said they haven't heard anything.

I call the dealer at the beginning of the 7th week and ask for the order number so I can attempt to find out it's status. Dealer says ho does not have it right in front of him, he said he will call me back. He doesn't. I start to get that awful feeling that something is not right.

I call and leave 2 more messages during the week. Dealer does not return calls.

I call dealer today and leave message. Dealer returns my call to my surprise.

Dealer says, “well we looked into the order and it is not in the system anywhere. We don't know what happened to it. (and if that was not enough) And by the way we cannot order the 5 Speed with the Adventure package anymore......” WHAT!!

Needless to say I was upset......
I ask for my deposit back. Dealer said sure.

I picked up the deposit today at lunch. Dealer says sorry.

Whatever...... I am so ticked at this point I'm not sure what to do.

Sorry to vent on my first post.
