Dealer sold me a lemon car with broken and rotten parts on the car. Dealer never stated the car was messed up or needed the major work it needs now. Dealer at one point took the car to go get inspected at a shop located on 705 Jefferson Ave , "and hour later he came back with the car and parked it. Couple days later dealer called me to go get the inspector form form the inspector " Gilbert/Tony". While viewing the paper correctly, the car was never inspected properly. Once I was able to take the car to a shop to do my own inspection they stated to me that I was sold a lemon car and it would be almost thousands to fix the car "more then i had purchase the car. I called the dealer back multiple times and sent msgs to the dealer regarding the vehicle dealer then blocked my number and the mechanics phone I used to call him after he blocked my number. As of now I am trying to figure out a way to get this car fix and filing a complaint report against this dealer to at lease get justices from this dealer and for him to get his business SHUT DOWN due to selling people as in myself broken lemon cars.

Random misfire on all 6 cylinders despite routine maintenance (coil pack replacement and new spark plugs), vehicle stability control light; I have only 112k miles on the car. These are persistent issues on vehicles honda j-series engines, yet my year was not included in the recall and service, parts, and costs associated is not covered by the dealer while other years are. The misfire issues continue to reoccur. I had a certified mechanic look at the vehicle and now the vsa light comes on.
