April: My truck was repossessed for non-payment. Aproximately 16 months worth of non-payment but the history of the truck explains why and all I wanted was my old vehicle back and they could have taken the truck. My car was still on their lot when I learned of the fraud they committed. I tried to return the truck then, and they refused.
Condition of truck: Outwardly, it was a great looking truck. It had power everything, alarm, 4-wheel drive, cruise control, and air conditioning. Within the same month I bought it, the air-conditioning went out. Shortly after that, the truck stopped wanting to climb hills, (standard hills on a normal road) The truck as long as it was in my possession was not used for off-road driving. Under normal conditions it lagged. The transmission slipped. I would drive down a freeway and with no warning, the vehicle plunges from 70 mph to 30 mph. When I try to give it gas, the engine just spins. $14,000 peice of junk!
Here is the history of the truck, the fraud, and the high pressured sales tactics of the Ft. Myers Lincoln Mercury Dealership. It also explains the numerous attempts to get the Florida Dealer's Financial, Inc to investigate it and correct it.
The following report has been filed with the State of Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. They claim they can only make suggestions to the accused party but can not do anything if the party does not want to comply.
Complaint is against Ft. Meyers Lincoln-Mercury, Inc. Located at 14200 S. Tamiami Trail, Ft. Myers, FL 33912: Phone: 1-800-226-5462: President: Philip Clemente
The Agricultural report asks the following 2 questions:
1. Explain your complaint fully, describing events in the order they occurred: (full details following)
2. What would satisfy your complaint? Answer: The car dealership would take back the truck like I asked them to when I found out they made a crooked transaction with me. And they return the $2,000.00 cash I gave them AND reimberse me for all of my belongings I had to sell in order to pay off their scam. I want face value at what it would cost me to replace everything. And I want my credit report to be corrected and erase this matter entirely.
