      I bought a 2016 Chevy equinox from the location in new Carlisle Ohio. **** was great upon the sale of the car. I’ve had nothing but issues such as timing belt issues, engine issues, and now I have to place my Cadillac converters after only having the vehicle for less than three months, which is gonna cost me another $2000. I have already dropped almost 5 grand into this they do not seem to care at all. I want my car fixed at their expense due to the fact that I haven’t even had it that long and I’ve already dropped a ton of money into it. Every time I mention an attorney, they just laugh at me and hang up. Preston has been absolutely horrible to deal with when it comes to officiating these repairs. Once you sign the contract with them, you were on the hook for a piece of crap dollars in repairs

      I bought a 2012 Cadillac srx that night I noticed the headlights were full of water and foggy which I couldn't see in the daylight I have to turn my brights on to see which I believe is illegal and unsafe they told me pretty much its my car now nothing they can do about it. This was the very next day after I bought it. Plus the key fob had scotch tape on it I ask before we purchased it he said he didn't know why the tape was on there. The fob fell apart we almost lost it the only fob they gave us. They told me the lights r over a thousand dollars they can't do anything about it. We r paying 3 times what the car is worth very very upset. Bad business
