Heres my story as written to the DMV:
When I first went to Stamas Car and Truck center to look at the Nissan Sentra I noticed that the seat belts were ratcheted down so they were unusable. I was then allowed off the lot to test drive the car on public roads without a functioning seat belts. Furthermore I was then allowed to take the car to my mechanic in Johnston with no functioning seat belts and I also learned that the driver side had no airbag. The dash lights also didn't work so you couldn't see the speedometer at night. With all these problems Stamas put a passing inspection sticker on the car when at the time it had no functioning front seat belts, no driver airbag, the dash lights didn't work and the spare tire was no good because it had a huge bubble in it. I had agreed to buy the car when they got it fixed. It took them a few weeks to get it fixed and in the meantime they bought the title of the car I was trading in approximately a week before I even received the Nissan Sentra. When I signed the papers to purchase the car I signed a warranty with Buyers Choice, Inc. Because they said that they were "giving it to me". I proceeded to ask Stamas to cancel it and I was told to call the company that the warranty was under. I called Buyers Choice and could not cancel the warranty because they said that it had not been submitted to them. I kept calling Buyers choice until they said they had my warranty information. Buyers choice received my warranty information on 2/29/08 and I had purchased the car on 11/30/07. It took Stamas three months to submit the warranty to Buyer's choice.in the end I got a lot of runaround and hassle from this dealer. I have driven to Stamas in West Warwick on at least 10 occasions to try to get everything cleared up.
