Description of the problem | Car dealer claimed they had fixed all necessary repairs to car that i had said were needed prior to me purchasing. The indicator lights went off as soon as car got moving. Contacted auto dealer who said they would take it back in and get it taken care of. Then refused to work on car, told me to take it to mechanic near me and send them the information to have it covered. Then refused to pay for repairs to car. Due to their incorporation and refusals nearly resulted in accident when car tire blew out while driving through town. Car was going at low enough speed to stop before more damages could take place. Now dealer refusing to even talk to me. |
