      Answered
      Purchased a vehicle from this business with a limited warranty. The business bumped up interest on us after they refused to take a full cash payment because they wanted us to build credit. I don't care about credit and just wanted a vehicle, but ok we will make payments and pay it off in a couple months. Now they will not let us do this because the vehicle they sold us is no longer functional after 35 days since purchase. They refuse to fix it and refuse to sell for less and have also refused a return for the vehicle for our down payment. It has endangered my 3 children and my wife who is the daily driver. This vehicle should not have been cleared for the road and the mechanics here knew about it because they did some mechanical work to it before leaving the lot to make the lights and issues shut off for a period of time. These people are liars and crooks and I would not recommend anyone dealing with this business.
