Your situation sounds more like "the list" when they take your deposit, write an invoice for your down payment, then when they get that "third" allocation available or a vehicle to sell you, you get that call to come in and take your money.
If you don't have an actual allocation number, anything goes and they can sell the vehicle to whomever they want and feed you whatever nonsense to string you along until they have a car to sell you.
This might come as a surprise to you but auto dealership employees are not the most reputable bunch..

The contact specified all the terms including it was at any point able to be broken by the buyer (me) with a full refund. Pretty basic wording. Could they fork me over, perhaps. Since I've been doing business with this dealer since 1979 and know many of the folks there, it's probably unlikely.
Considering I've been buying and selling cars for over 40 years, I've been around the block a couple of times and well know, perhaps more than I care to think, about the industry.  |
Well, If you have a personal relationship or some sort or accumulated goodwill with a dealership; your situation might vary from a typical one-off buyer. So I could see them
possible pulling some strings to get you what you want.
I still believe money talks and I know people in sales who would stab their own mother in the back for the paper.
Color me skeptical but I wouldn't trust anything a dealer tells me unless I have an allocation number so I could track the vehicle's build status through a third-party portal. Anything thing else is just expendable words
