I was told that this car was in really good condition. Everything worked on it just fine. It sounded like a deal so I offered to buy it. He kept telling me over and over that someone else was wanting to buy it and that he could only hold it for so long. I tried to rush out and get a loan. Every day he would call me asking for the money. I finally got the money but I wasn`t going to be able to make it for another week... view more. He said until the money was in his hands, the car was still for sale so he told me I should wire him the money. I specifically told them that this car needed to be in good working order so I can drive it home. He told me everything mechanically was was working soundly. I went ahead and wired the money. When I finally got the chance to make it out there (21hr bus ride) I get to the dealership. The car has many more scratches on it than the pictures revealed. The pictures were conveniently positions to hide the fact that the side panel was screwed on by sheet metal screws and there was a huge screw right though the console holding the faceplate on. That wasn`t in any of the pictures but I thought to myself, its just cosmetic. I can fix that. I wasn`t happy though. They tell me to drive the car down to the office to fill out the paperwork. I`ll admit, the engine ran smoothly and sounded good. I drove it down and we began the paperwork process. He told me that since the money was already transferred to them, the car was now mine. No backing out now. So I signed the paper. After I filled up for the first time and started the car, there was a rattling noise from what sounded to be in the transmission. That scared me but I still had 11hrs more to go. I decided to push on. The car was driving just fine down the highway. I decided to turn on the A/C. Cold air was coming through but just barely even when it was set to high. I decide to roll the windows down since the AC just wasn`t cutting it. I turned on the radio and listen to the music. I listened for about 3min when the radio station started cutting out. I began to smell smoke. I shut the radio off and the smell went away. Great. Now I have to get a new radio installed. That`s three things wrong so far. I come across some rain on the way back. I go to turn on the wipers. Doesn`t matter which mode its in, it only has one speed. Slow. I pull into a gas station on my next rest break. As I was leaving, I noticed the man in front of me didn`t put the cap back on on his car. I went to honk at him so I could let him know but my horn dont work. So now I have a car with worse cosmetic wear than I thought, No A/C or heat, no radio, no horn, one speed wipers, and a rattling noise in the transmission. Im only half way home. This is not the car they told me it was. I was to have a fully operational vehicle cause that is what he told me it was. I go to open the back hatch but it wont open for some reason.I got it to open at the dealership easily though. I decided to give it one more big tug and finally got it open. Something catches my eye. The back seat wasn`t latched in all the way. I went to fix it only to find out that the back seats are broken. I have no way to unlatch or latch the seats. How am I suppose to have passengers with a seat that doesn`t work? I have to buy a new transmission, a new radio, fix the A/C, get a new heater core, repair the back seat, and replace the latch on the back hatch. All this time I was thinking I would only have to do cosmetic repairs. I still cant get them to talk to me or respond to my emails. I feel cheated and lied to. These people will tell you anything to get your money. I will never ever buy a car from them and I most certainly will not recommend them to anyone else.
