Do NOT Trust!!!
Vehicle was in shop getting checked out, fixed or diagnostic of issues more than we the time we had it in our possession. Ending with total transmission failure, cracked radiator, Engine air flow valves, back wheel bearings + brake caliper issues in less than 30 days!!
On September 20th, 2024 purchased a 2013 Subaru Legacy for $4,500.00 from J&M Auto Sales at 128 West Street in Lawrence, MA - 978-328-8762. J&M Auto assured it would pass inspection and there was nothing wrong with it. When we brought it to our mechanic it failed inspection. Engine lights had come on reporting several issues.
It was important he had a reliable vehicle to commute to college (Southern New Hampshire University - SNHU). School was starting again in January. It took my son a long time to save up for this vehicle. It was all the money he had.
Not only did the vehicle NOT pass inspection, my son had to pay more than $500.00 for things that did not fix the issues he had.
Below you will find a timeline of events. During all this time, my son had to wait for mechanics to become available. Our mechanic was really busy as well and went on vacation - preventing us from getting some things checked sooner. Every time something got fixed, we needed to drive it 100+ miles to make sure engine lights would not come back on.
