On April 4th, 2025 I purchased a car from Big Jon's Auto. I went to see what this dealership had in my price range, but was denied a loan because of my lack of co-signer. After deciding to walk away, they ushered me towards a 2007 Acura TSX. I was told that they had just gotten it in and hadn't even inspected it, so I asked them to look at it before I bought it. It was in my price range and, miraculously, a credit union I'd never heard of allowed me a loan on the car. I drove it off the lot the next day. The CarFax they gave me indicated that it had a clean title, and I was told that the car was mechanically sound.
I was able to use my car for about a month before the bumper fell off and the "Check Emissions System" light came on. It's important to note that the car was sold to me with the VSA, e-brake, and ABS system lights on. The dealer(Marcos) assured me that it was probably an electrical issue tripping the lights as I was told it pulled no codes at the time. After not being able to use my car for two months, I took it to a shop who did a full "reliability report" on it, and concluded that the car is not drivable or safe. It had severe frame damage indicating a major accident and has been recently welded together. After learning this, I tried called Big Jon's Auto to talk to Marcos. I did not record, but a woman answered and told me to text a number and Marcos would get back to me by the end of the day that day. I have yet to hear back from them. I think I've been blocked as I have been trying to call them almost every single day since the beginning of July.
I have looked at the negative reviews of Big Jon's Auto and ALL of them mention being sold a lemon car. This issue goes back to 7+ years ago, the most recent being a young woman in the exact same situation as me. The shop I took the car to also mentioned they get a lot of cars in from Big Jon's Auto.
