No spare, jack or tire iron?

So, my 09 challenger was a floor model.. Should I believe the dealer when they say it comes with no spare? Not even a donut? It has the spot for it.. But no jack or anything.. WTF!

Call another dealer and ask their advice.

It has become quite commonplace here to get a new car with no spare, unless you explicitly ask for it when ordering (and then it's free of charge, but if you omit it, you don't have it, hence most people don't have one).

I guess the dealer didnt show you the hidden compartment in the trunk. There should be a can of tire sealant and a small compressor in there. Thats what this 09 Hemi model had in it's trunk.
