On July 18, 2018, I bought a 2006 Kia Sorento at Bell Auto Sport, LLC, 2024 CAMPOSTELLA RD. CHESAPEAKE, VA, 23324 for $2,100. The man I spoke to, Romeo Davis, said he'd guarantee the vehicle for 30 days, but now says he won't help me in any way.
I went to Fink's Car Care, 2711 Victory Blvd. Portsmouth, VA 23702, to get an alignment for the vehicle, but was told that the rear end was bent and the SUV couldn't be aligned without replacing the rear end. Then I got a second opinion at Johnny's Auto Care, 3615 High St, Portsmouth, VA 23707. Not only did they agree that the rear end needed to be replaced, but I was shown a major oil leak that would cost more than I paid for the vehicle to fix.
It appears that the inspection sticker was slapped on the vehicle without inspecting it because the headlights were oxidized, and the tires had too little tread, and one of the rear wheels was leaning in which would prevent it from passing inspection. Yet, there is an inspection sticker on the windshield that indicates it passed, and is good for another year. There is also a slip in the glove box saying that it passed every test.
I think this is a clear case of fraud. read more
