Business ProfileforFowler Kia of Windsor

I recently acquired a pre-owned vehicle from Fowler Kia of Windsor, with assurances that a previously addressed brake issue had been resolved, and new brake pads were installed, as indicated in the car's history report. However, upon driving the vehicle, I immediately noticed persistent squeaking from the brakes. Concerned, I contacted the dealership for an inspection, expecting the matter to be covered under the assumption that it was a known issue from before my purchase and persisting thereafter. To my surprise, I was presented with a $400 bill for new rotors, and the attached written quote showed that "immediate attention" was required due to a failure in the front brakes during the inspection. Upon discussing the matter with the service manager, who also happened to be the former owner of the car I bought, as well as the sales manager, the bill was reduced to $186, still charging me for the cost of parts. However, I find this resolution unsatisfactory, as worn rotors pose a significant safety risk, contrary to the assertion that I was told that the issue was "cosmetic". It is troubling that these worn components passed a safety inspection conducted less than three weeks prior. I wouldn't want anyone else to purchase an unsafe car because the dealership isn't updating cars to the best of their ability before resale. Given that I was sold a vehicle with known safety concerns, and subsequently faced resistance in addressing the problem, I respectfully request reimbursement for the expenses incurred.
