    Resolved
    And March 19th paid 2300 towards a 2011 Saab 9-5 turbo premium the remainder of which to be paid the following day. After making initial payment car was smoking. It was agreed they would take care of the smoking complaint or the sale is off. When my father went to make the final payment the following day, they said that there was a coolant leaking into the turbo and would call when it was fixed. That night, however, I pulled a VIN report showing the odometer had been tampered with two or more times and that the vehicle was not the turbo 4 premium edition. It was the turbo for sedan trim which is a lower trim model. The advertisement clearly states it's the turbo for premium with sunroof moonroof amongst other amenities that came standard with the turbo for premium. Which upon research, I confirmed however this car has no sunroof or moonroof has no none of these extra amenities and every other listing this car has been sold under six previous times has been for the turbo for sedan they claimed this is not possible. I've asked him several times to just refund my money and I will be square because they misrepresented the sale and they're listing and they did not disclose the odometer discrepancies. They now will not return my call or even answer my call as he always seems to be out of the office when I do call. Also, when I bought the car the listing stated the sale price expiring sometime February but now shows the car that I bought being available for sale with the sale price ending 2 days after I bought it. So they tried to resell it after I'd already bought it. The car is never been in my position. It's still in their position. I'm simply wanting them to refund my money. I have filed with the *** and filed a fraud report with my financial institution

    This is one of the worst auto dealerships in the ****** area. They repossessed my car after a week saying we were behind on payments. (We had just paid $3000 on it but we were behind.) Then I went back to pay off the vehicle and it took them several months to get me my title. Now I'm trying to get a replacement title and they have apparently put a lien on my vehicle and they refuse to provide a lien release. I have sent 6 emails in 2 days to their accountant for the paperwork and they refuse to acknowledge me.
