The interviewer wants to hear you discuss a time when you experienced customer service that was not up to your standard. Your response will show the interviewer that you are well aware of the difference between poor service and VIP level service.
Walk the interviewer through the overall situation, and talk about what you would have changed about the experience. This question is not an opportunity to bash a company or person; use this as a chance to highlight your customer service knowledge and passion.

"I had a vehicle shopping experience recently, and as you may already know, there is a considerable variety of approaches when it comes to car sales professionals. The first dealership I went to, I could see a few salespeople chatting in the showroom, yet nobody bothered to approach me even to say hello. It was like I was invisible! Working in the service industry myself, I knew that if this were my first experience, the tone would likely continue throughout my customer journey with that dealership. I ended up buying an SUV from a small family-owned dealership where they listened to me and got to know what kind of vehicle would suit my lifestyle, taste, and budget. If it were up to me to make a change for that first dealership, I would train the sales staff on the importance of a memorable and positive first impression."
