Do not purchase a car from here under any circumstances--especially if you are a woman. They will…read moretake full advantage of you.
I purchased a 2016 Ford Fusion from this dealership. I was told the car was in good condition, that he doesn't sell bad cars, and that the vehicle would be detailed and taken care of. I don't know much about cars, and maybe I should have brought a man with me--but as a business owner, I expected honesty.
This was the worst car purchase of my life.
I bought the car last February, and I have not been able to drive it for more than two weeks total since then. From the very beginning, there were problems. When I first reported the issue, he told me to pay him and he would fix it. I paid him. A week later, the same issue happened again. He told me to bring it back.
He kept my car for over a month, claiming he was fixing it and that everything was covered under warranty. The day before--while I was in the hospital--he called and said I owed a large amount of money. I explained I didn't have the money. I had already lost my job because of this car and was dealing with heart problems.
When I went the next day to get my car, he suddenly claimed I had a $1,000 balance, even though he previously told me everything was covered under warranty. I then found out I was never covered by a warranty at all.
He refused to release my car unless I paid. I live over an hour away, had my three-year-old child with me, and had no transportation. He told me if I signed papers and paid $900, he would release the car that day. I had no choice.
It became clear why he did this--nothing was ever fixed. On my way home, the car was smoking and leaking oil. He claimed it was because he "changed the oil." Shortly after, the car stalled and would not accelerate.
I took it to a real mechanic. The repairs cost $2,500, and the mechanic showed me that the part he claimed to have replaced was actually the original part--no work had ever been done.
A week later, the car wouldn't start again. This time, it was the transmission--another $2,500.
I am a single mother of two. Because of this one purchase, I lost my job, my home, and everything. I am currently sleeping on a friend's couch as I write this.
We even had to involve the police. Afterward, he bragged about being friends with them.
This is bad business, plain and simple. I cannot believe someone could treat another human being--especially a woman and mother--this way.
There are truly evil people in this world who only care about money. He is one of them. Please do not buy a car from him.
Owner is a very dishonest person. I'm so mad that people like him ruin it for good shops out there and he kept bragging how his wife got a Mercedes and less than that so I still take advantage of people if you were living a good life what a shame.
