In August 2015, Mr*** was interested in a *** **
that was on our lotMr*** took the car for a test drive and he liked it
but wanted his mechanic to check it before he purchases itWe didn’t have any
problem with that at allAfter coming back from his mechanic, Mr
***
decided to buy the vehicle since his mechanic told him that it is in a good
shape and that he should be happy with it
On August 20, 2015, Mr*** purchased the vehicle with
106,miles on itThe vehicle was sold to Mr*** with a Motor and
transmission warranty of days or 1,miles whichever comes firstWe,
also, offer third party extended warranties on all the cars we sell, but Mr
*** declined the extended warranty coverage on his vehicle
On September 8, 2015, Mr*** brought the vehicle to our
service department since it would not startThe vehicle needed a battery and
we replaced it at no charge
A couple of weeks later, Mr*** called and told us that
his car caught on fire while it was not running and that he wants his money
backMr*** had the vehicle towed to usOur service department checked
the car and found signs of burns on the hood that seemed unrelated to any
possible mechanical issuesThe car had close to 109,miles on it which puts
it over the warranty period, since it was driven over 1,miles that the
dealer is required to warranty under the used vehicle law
Mr*** had his insurance company adjustor stop by our
shop to check the carHis insurance adjustor took pictures of the car and
recorded the odometer reading on the vehicle which shows close to 109,
milesThe insurance adjustor, also, mentioned that the burn signs are on top
of the hood and not under the hood which seemed a little strange
We advised Mr*** that we don’t do body work at our
place and that since his car is over the warranty period of 1,miles, it is
best for him to work with his insurance company and a body shop of his choice
to do the necessary repairs on his car
Attached, please find a copy of the warranty statement along
with the Registration form (RMV-1) showing the mileage of 106,of when Mr
*** registered the car
