Review: After 6 months of not having a car, I found a listing for some car on craigslist, so I called Top 10 Motors, they came and picked me up around 5:00p on a Sunday in June of 2014, by the time I got out of the dealer, it was almost 11:00pm. I was told the payments would be 230.00 or so, for the 2005 Nissan Altima, which isnt the car I saw in the craigslist listing, so I thought that was within my budget, but being so exhausted, I am signing paperwork late, that I didnt notice the contract was for 330.00, until I called my insurance company that my payments were 100.00 more. I immediately contacted Top 10 motors, that I swear that I heard the 230.00 and that I can not afford the payments. They agreed to get me into another car, so I continued to drive the Altima for more than 3 weeks. They tried to get me into another car, that one had too many mechanical issues, then they found a 2005 VW Passat Wagon, that was a 4 cylinder car. So as a consumer I should have looked at the car first and test drove it before agreeing to buy this car, I trusted that they were looking out for me, so I agreed to buy the car. I met a girl working for them, at a Target store to sign the paperwork, I was promised that I would get a copy of the contract in the mail, then I gave back the Altima and drove off in the Passat.

I expressed to Top 10 Motors that I wasnt happy with the car, they said I cant bring it back since I now have the financing. Furthermore, 10 days later of having possession of the car, I experienced a gross overheating of the car, and a slow leak in 1 tire, I immediately called Top 10 Motors, they wanted me to drive it to them, I didnt want to take the chance of being stranded, especially with the weather being so hot as well, I ask them to pick it up so they can have a mechanic fix the coolant leak and tire. They kept wanting me to have it towed, I insisted that they should tow it , especially since it was less than 2 wks of me taking possession of the car; it took them 10 days to pick the car up, and got a visit at my residence from 2 Persian men to check the car, and they never properly indentified thereselfs, then when the car was ready, they didnt call me, I was greatly inconvenienced to take the bus to work for 3 weeks. When I get the car back from Top 10 Motors, the tire was never repaired, and within days I was overheating again, at this point I know their mechanic never repair it, for mos I had to add coolant weekly which turned into daily which got expensive, I got a quote from a mechanic that the coolant flange need to be repaired which cost me 350.00 dollars to repair. I strongly believe that they knew the car had issues and sold me the car anyways. Between never getting a copy of my contract and dealing with expensive repairs, this dealer is highly unethical and running a fraudulent business. I so regret I made the decision to deal with them and still am driving the car, which is now having the engine light coming on.

Review: On may 3, I had purchased a car from this dealership. Then 4 hours later I was involved in a car accident. Which car is totaled. Since then I spoke with [redacted] the salesman. He told the only insurance they gave me was to cover car. I told him I thought I had full coverage since I'm financing it. He said no they don't offer that. Also, other cars were involved.Desired Settlement: To provide me with full coverage when financing a car. I've been told that's the law.

Review: I leased a vehicle from top 10 motors only 3 months ago. In these three months my car is broke down 4 times and yesterday just found out that the heads or possibly cracked and that the car is a complete lemon. 2 weeks ago I found out that the car the cars catalytic converter was it illegally on there. mechanic mike is escondido California informed me that the car had to been illegally smogged because as of this date the car would not pass smog because there was the wrong catalytic converter on it from a different year make and model and the part is even welded onto my car. I have only made 3 car payments on this car and the car is non operatable right now. Under the car there is extreme erosion, making it possible that it was in hurricane katrina. [redacted] from top ten motors does have smogs illegally done, informed to me by his childrens mother, an old roommate of mine. Also [redacted] from top 10 motors, sleeps in his office space on the lot, and also loans out the cars to numerous females who on he has relations with. Also, top 10 motors has been known to take gift cards for home depot since they have been rebuolding that office space for years now. My uncle andre hawkins use to take him gift cards for lowes/home depot in exchange for car payments. Tbey do faulty bussiness and they are totally tryong to beat me out of 12,000 for a car that originally was suppose to be 5,000 and I only got to drive for 3 months! They do faulty bussiness abd Revdex.com needs to know about this.Desired Settlement: I would love my refund of my deposit, my money put into all 4 shop visits and even my car paymens if possible sine I am now losing money from not being able to efficiently get to work on time since my schedule consist of being able to use my car Or if need be to replace the vehicle, at the dealers exspense, the car wouldneed to be inspected at a Revdex.com approved mechanic and a two different Revdex.com approved smog places, or just notthe same one that top ten motors gets their cars illegally smogged.
