On July 19 I signed papers to buy a 1999 S-10 pick up. I did not put a down payment on it and as of this date, July 30th, no final financing has gone through on this vehicle.
The salesman insisted that I drive the truck home that night (July 19)! Upon inspecting it the following day I found the tires to be unsafe and some dents that I had not seen before.
I took the truck back on the 21st and told them that I didn't want it. The salesman told me "it was too bad it was mine".
I took the vehicle home not knowing what to do. I drove it for one more week trying to figure out my options and also was able to check out the pick up some more. I found out that there is an Arizona Law that says a person has three days to return a vehicle. I also found that there were bolts missing from the transmission mount and that the driveshaft moved from side to side.
I took the vehicle back on July 29th and told them that I did not want to purchase this truck and that it is unsafe. The salesman once again said "the truck is yours". I said no it's not and left the truck parked there and handed the keys and paperwork to the salesman.
July 30th about 5pm the receptionist at my place of work called me and asked if I owned a 1999 S-10 pick up I told her no. Apparently the salesman gave her the keys and said they belonged to me. I did not pick up the keys and do not know where the truck is.
I dont want this truck. I did attempt to return this truck within the three day period. I was lied to and felt forced to take the truck home again. There is no reason I should be forced to buy this lemon.
