Just bought a car from this used car dealership that is junk. Asked 2 people what was wrong with the car, and was told by one over the phone before I went out there that the car may need a muffler. Figured that would not be a big deal. I asked The other sales person if anything was wrong with it, and he told me nothing was wrong with the car. Test drove it, and it seemed fine at the time. Also looked under the hood, and did not see any oil, or under the car. I am not a mechanic, and this place is in a different state than where I reside so was not able to take to a mechanic at that time. They did not reveal any problems with the car to me, and made a very quick sale. Of course the car was sold as is, but also thought there was a 3 day recision, which I found out later was not true. Anyways the battery had to be charged before we could test drive it. I felt like the battery was not a big issue. Offered them a lower price, and was quickly accepted by the owner. The salesman had told me the car was a repo, so I guess that is why they were so willing to hurry up & sell it. This car was bought for my daughter, and money was hard to come by. Her car was going to need a new engine, so just decided to get another car instead of putting possibly $2000.00 into a car that we only paid $1700.00 for. Closed the deal, got the car home & it would not start again. Car was taken to a mechanic the following monday, and mechanic told us to take the car back, that the timing belt could go out at anytime, and that there was a leak in the exhaust. He stated it would be a expensive fix, and quoted a estimate of $883.00, and possibly more, and he was not a dealership. My son called out to the car dealer & spoke with the owner, who tried to act like my son was threatening him, and told him if he came out there with the car he would leave in a body bag. When I tried to call & speak with him he had his yes man to speak on his behalf, and said he would not talk to me, or try to do anything to resolve the issue. These people have absolutely no morals, will smile & act nice to you until you pull the car off the lot. I think the owner probably uses the same method of trying to say you are threatening him so that he will not have to talk to you, or make it right. They are totally not going to satisfy their customer, and obviously do not care about repeat customers, or referrals. Beware of doing business with this dealership!!!
