Phoenix Corvette Center
Corvette Center Of Phoenix ripoff dishonest business practice, failed to pay for repairs, failed to submit registration, threating to repo

DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THESE PEOPLE if you do, DO NOT let them finance the vehicle. They will not pay for repairs for which they are responsible for. I bought a car with 97K miles from David at Phoenix Corvette Center which needed repairs that David knew of and failed to mention to me. After putting aprox 2000 miles on the car it needed:
1. Oil change: when I changed the oil, it had only one quart, 2. Spark plugs: completly toast,
3. Spark plug wires: burnt,
4. Transmission fluid: I took the car to Bell Honda for service and the mechanic advised me that the fluid was "burnt" and appeared it had "never been changed".
5. Front brakes: metal to metal, I finally got tired and embarressed of driving around with the loud obnoxius sound of grinding metal.
6. O2 (oxygen) sensor: needs replacement; do not have the money for this repair yet
7. Timing and drive train belts: according to bell honda this needs replacement; do not have the money for this repair yet

David and his secretary are very rude and condescending to me when I attempt to call.

David has also failed to apply for my license plates or registration (its been 3 months!) and when asked about this, their reply: "you need to take the car in for inspection" and "we did everything on our part, its the MVD who didn't follow through" WRONG, the car has an out of state title which has an extra 0 added to the vin number. I took the car in as requested and gave Phoenix C. Center all the copies... Still no license plate.

Now, my insurance company and I had a misunderstanding of when insurance was to cancel, (I was in the process of changing carriers) and the insurance cancelled earlier than expected. I now have a new insurance carrier on the vehicle. David at Phoenix C. Center sent me a certified letter stating that "because I had a lapse in coverage" I am in "breach of contract" and therefor my vehicle is in reposession status or I have to pay the car in full.

The car has full coverage insurance and is current in payments, but David is attempting to repo my car. Stay away from this dealership!
