    The codes for the forester, 3 for the engine. 7 other codes

    WHERE'S THE TRANSPARENCY??? NOT HERE! I was just here at this business this Tuesday, 2/24/26 and have been regretting, the day I went. I have been looking for a car since the end of December, looking at CARFAX, cars.com, car gurus, individual companies, pretty much everywhere. I've even test drove at least 5 different cars. I came upon this company, thru the web(I don't think thru any of those sites I've mentioned) and noticed that they have like 4 cars that i wouldnt mind test driving, looking for an suv, not per se a particular brand. When I mentioned to the sale guy, he gave me a snide remark, that should've been my 1st warning. Sales guy, was very laid back(which you think was a good quality), no pressure sale, which was nice. But he really didn't know his trade or his stock. He couldn't really give me any details on the cars I was driving. Literally holding a conversation with my self. My 1st defense for looking at cars is a FIXD device which is golden(a definite necessity for any car owner. This little device fit its the ob site under the dash. It will tell you of the things you don't see. I wanted to look at 4 but only 3 were available. I test drove the 2016 red Subaru Forester, 2021 orange Kia Seltos and the 2018 Grey Nissan Rogue. After test driving each car, I plugged in the FIDX remote, scanned the cars. Each car threw a red code, which is not good. The forester threw up 10 codes and the other cars threw up 1 code each, but both were in the red. Which what you don't want. I'm hoping to show you pictures of what I am speaking about. So I course I was baulking at even getting any of them. O did I mention I drove like an hr and 20 mins to get here, really not worth it. I really wasn't thinking too clearly, I think. I should've left right then. I really did want the forester, but 10 codes, I couldn't even considerate it. I said I wouldn't mind purchasing the seltos, it had 1 code, but I wanted my mechanic to look at it 1st. He arranged it where I could get my mechanic to look at it, and if there was anything wrong they would fix it. The sale guy kept saying the mechanic was going to poo po the car just because of its color. I told him ive been going to the same guy for over 20 years, he wouldn't do that. So Wayne, 1st gave me the #'s, their site said $17,400 and all those other sites said the same amount. He literally added another $1000 because I wasn't financing the car, I was paying cash. That's when I should've left. Again. I liked the car. Later i had read their mission statement, they want their customer to have transparency and confidence in buying a car. They state that on their site. They said that the provide each customer the carfax with the histories, owners, accidents of each car, NEWSFLASH-They NEVER gave me the carfax. As I was saying I've been looking at cars since end of December. I was NOT looking at cars with multiple owners or accidents. I thought I had looked those specs, but there were other seltos and foresters and rogues I was looking at, and I must of mixed these up also. IF AUTOPROVED LIVED UP TO THEIR MOTTO, I wouldn't be on this site complaining. I gave autoproved $1000, non refundable deposit, in hopes of returning the next day to pick up my car and pay for it with a check. IF I SAW THE CARFAX, I WOULDVE NEVER CONSIDERED THIS CAR. Multiple owners, and accident(s). CARFAX LITERALLY SAID THIS CAR SHOULD SEE A COLLISION EXPERT. I saw this fact after I got home. I had literally called my mechanic for them to go over the car. I was so filled with despair, when I saw the CARFAX. I couldn't go thru with the sale. Wayne wanted me to pay for the car, take it to my mechanic and then if they found anything, autoproved would pay for the difference. The next day, i told my husband what i found out with the carfax and that i wouldve not went thru with the sale.HE WAS PISSED with them beinging dishonest with the price and now with the carfax, he didnt want anything to do with them. DO YOUR HOMEWORK FOLKS. DO NOT VISIT THIS BUSINESS ITS NOT WORTH YOUR SAFETY. I feel like I should be able to get my deposit back and that is definitelya safety issue,(THIS LITERALLY ALL HAPPENED IN LESS THAN 24 HR) for the sake that they didn't provide that CARFAX, when it literally clearly says it on their website that they do that. UGH!

    Note, missing lug nut!!

Joey, the owner, took care of me personally, set up my demo drive and expertly highlighted special features on the care, history and condition of the car. Being a BMW CCA member and prior owner of many BMWs, I asked many challenging questions. Joey addressed all of my concerns honestly and transparently. He gave me a very fair price and when I picked up the car, he had it prepped to perfection. Richie Ramos, Sales Manager, made the paperwork a simple and pleasant process, unlike the grueling marathon I have endured at other dealers. I have been immensely enjoying the performance of my LVI BMW for two months now and have attended several Cars and Coffee events and shows. I am very happy I found this special car at Lehigh Valley Imports. I am also happy to share the fact that my overall satisfaction was enhanced by Joey's friendly trustworthiness. He is a true connoisseur of unique cars and first class customer service and his business, LVI, absolutely delivers a high standard of special service to "special" cars and people. Thank you, BMW Bob

Massive clouds of white smoke, collision light turned on, check engine light blinking. Thank god I made it down to FLA. I was told to take it to a nissan dealership, which I did. 8k worth if repairs needed. Fluids leaking, bushing rotted, misfirirng sparkplugs, dirty brake fluid. Apparently these idiots didn't finalize my paperwork so technically I dont own the car which made the warranty useless. So instead of spending time with my family I spent the whole trip being lied to and avoided by star auto mall. They wanted me to tow it somewhere cheaper to get it fixed or tow it back to PA for repairs. Since they were too stupid to finalize the sale and didnt want to pay for the repairs I bought another car in FLA and left their POS at the Nissan dealership
