Recently bought a car that I believe they are illegally passing the inspections on. They proclaimed that fixed a major part to keep the tires on my car tie rods and cv axel. Just short time after it looked like the part was never replaced just tightened up and shortly after we had all kinds of issues with the brakes and anything that keeps the car driveing safely the brakes went out on me so I called to see what they did and why they never fixed it the berry next day they repo the car as if they are trying to hide and cover up the scams they have on people my kids are in that car daily it should be never passed the inspection we have had to pay for most of that. I believe all the cars in there lot need to be inspected by a federal agent or something I've found alot of the same complaints online about same issues and I even know other people who have bought from them all with the same issues they are fraud and you need to stop them before someone gets killed and dies from one of there faulty vehicles my issue happened and happens while driveing they also took both of the brake caliber pins that hold it in place to the point to where it came off completely I almost died guys they are bad people to buy from

This includes all gauges except for speedometer for now. This typical clears up within 5 mins and sooner if you pull car over and restart vehicle. This can happen at anytime and includes the lighting up of the following lights ABS,brake,security,seatbelt,SRS and all the other dashboard lights. This happens at different dates and times.

I pulled into my garage and shut my truck off but my doors wouldn't unlock. Then it started making funny ticking sounds and all my lights inside started flicking and my windows all rolled up and wouldn't go back down so I could get out. After about 20 minutes or so I turned it back on and was finally able to get my door unlocked to get out. Now when I touch anything my other windows go up and my seat starts to move on its own. My driver's window is stuck up and won't come back down. I have 5 kids and can not chance something happening and us not being able to get out safely.

Tl* the contact owns a 2002 chevrolet trailblazer. While driving 30 MPH, the headlights failed and turned off independently. When the contact exited the vehicle, the locks independently engaged and locked the contact out. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for that incident. Later, the electrical components on the front driver's side door, including the side view mirror, power window, and power lock switches, failed. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the driver's door master power window switch module failed and needed to be replaced. The dealer rebooted the module as a temporary repair, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failures and advised the contact to take the vehicle to a dealer and pay for the repairs. The approximate failure mileage was 195,000. The VIN was unavailable.

My entire instrument panel is inoperative. I am unable to tell my speed, fuel level, oil level and pressure, temperature, whether or not my high beams are on or off, or whether the cruise control is engaged. I use my GPS as a speedometer and have run out of gas on high-speed limited access highways 4 times. The dealer wants nearly $500 to fix this although it's a common problem (see google). Running out of gas on the interstate is a matter of life and death. I've asked to speak with a zone rep and gotten nowhere. The two photos were taken on 3/9/2017. One with the engine running and one with the engine off. There's no difference!!!
