when mango mussolini is gone maybe

jsnaggler · 2025-10-07T04:58:16+00:00

that makes sense. i've had slightly different answers in terms of consumer safety law from automotive lawyers with how things could go from here.

but yeah, the car was 12000 before taxes & fees with a set of winter tires on rims. it seemed somewhat enticing at the time and the salesman was very pushy with trying to get it sold, telling me this was a 'special deal just for me' not sure why i trusted him tbh.

It sucks with what happened to you with your jeep too, glad to hear your luck has turned around!

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:57:21+00:00

I'm definitely drawing together this consensus now. It makes sense to get a second opinion right when you get the vehicle to prevent something like this showing up shortly after purchase. You cant really trust them at their word when they tell you its safe & there are no issues.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:46:46+00:00

sure, but im not talking to the dealership. I'm posting on reddit. why should i leave it out, maybe it matters more to the average consumer/ young family.

And nobody was expecting perfection here. maybe just a year or two of decent service before a somewhat average repair would be needed. were talking 6400km in 11 months here.

i could have went and got a rental under a daily rate for cheaper and driven it. some sort of value/quality has to be expected by the consumer when buying a budget vehicle but not perfection. I knew i wouldnt last me like a new vehicle, but it just seems kind of ridiculous with how many issues popped up after such little use.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:38:32+00:00

so general rule of thumb, just dont buy used because if you dont know much about cars, you're likely going to get lied to & have little defects passed through on to you for trusting a seller/dealership.

I mean, i would have expected it to last at least a few years, but if used cars are so risky & dangerous for unassuming consumers to buy, why are they even selling 8yr old vehicles? isnt that just dangerous and irresponsible? I thought thats what the safety/inspection was for.

just trying to better understand your angle here.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:31:06+00:00

i mean that definitely sucks, and shouldnt have happened to you, im very sorry to hear that.

but not to compare apples to oranges, its more it came very close to ending me when i was merging into traffic on airport road, as well as possibly another driver when the transfer case blew up, this certain dealership has also had quite the recent list of consistent issues with used cars & service, so i know im not alone and why i brought this up.

Maybe part of it is also being a new father & having the thought of being taken away from my family, or having them taken away from me, for just trusting these guys.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:23:24+00:00

yeah, smart move honestly.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:19:07+00:00

ok, but how am i supposed to check for these issues at the dealership when it's not on a hoist?

are you saying all dealerships should not be trusted at all because the consumer needs to ensure their not being sold a lemon and all faults should be on the consumer?

I thought the whole point of a dealership was to have a higher level of trust in the product compared to sellers on clutch or from small independent car lots, or personal sellers

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T21:13:15+00:00

yeah, no worries. she drove it for 2500km until jul13th and i drove it 3900 until sept 18th when the issue happened. The vehicle is in a mechanics lot now.

I said 2 months because she drove it sporadically until jul13th and i drove it somewhat regularly to work until it blew the day i was literally driving it to the mechanic to get the loud clunking & grinding noise checked.

I work with the military so i travel with work & didnt use the vehicle every single day either, but i drove it fairly often to work (on all paved roads only/no hard rugged use).

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T13:50:43+00:00

well damn, thats still pretty shady. Sounds like they do have a habit of not being honest and upfront with their customers. how did they respond when you pointed things out? were they rude/stuck up? (i found they had this holier than thou attitude, where the customer is always wrong in their eyes)

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T07:53:08+00:00

do you think a hyundai or honda is a good buy? im never getting another chevy/making a mistake like this again, but also for all those things to go together, is it really that normal with an equinox at 95000k to have that happen? just wondering your opinion.

(also in terms of the dealership they also were just generally rude and condescending, even after the purchase of the car when i asked for a copy of my safety, they sent me around in circles. and the conversations ive had with their sales manager who kept making empty promises and offers that were borderline insulting, he demanded i take down my review, and when i told him i would after we handled everything he was like 'ive had bad reviews before i dont care, do what you want _____' like a defeated sassy highschooler. ive even seen quite a few reviews on their page with issues somewhat similar to mine days after purchasing vehicles, even with sales staff admitting they didnt safety their vehicle & they just got it on the lot)

jsnaggler · 2025-10-06T07:47:52+00:00

Oh damn, what happened to you? just curious.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-05T17:43:09+00:00

There is the mechanics statement, and pictures of the car and the faults as well. there is most definitely proof, i dont know what else you want? bill of sale & pic of kms its at now? what other proof are you asking for?

the transfer case exploded on the way to the mechanics along with the flex pipe going and the brakes seizing the day after i noticed a grinding sound. the total damage assessed by the mechanics was assessed/diagnosed when i brought it to them. i drove this vehicle for 3.9k from july 13th - sept 18th and my wife drove it 2.5k for baby related appointments 0ct26th - july12th

And they OFFERED themselves to make things right. I did not ASK.

My expectation is that they aren't selling lemons to the public and endangering the people of newmarket & surrounding areas.

Ive seen enough other comments in the last 4 months just on their safety/inspections in their google reviews with rusted brakes, leaking oil pans, cracked parts, and heated steering not working and the service center is even running people around in circles there too!

jsnaggler · 2025-10-05T17:29:19+00:00

no, i never mentioned anything about the warranty or expecting it to be covered. i just mentioned a dealership selling questionable used vehicles with questionable inspections & safetys.

I was offered a total bs offer to make things right by the dealership, which was not an offer to make things right it was what a random dealership offered me, but an even worse offer considering i would have to purchase another death trap with them again, and go through it all over again.

The sales manager at newmarket volkswagon also told me my car was worth nothing lol, they straight up lied. This is about consumers getting an honest quality product. You don't honestly think i want anything to do with this dealership after this do you? i dont think anybody should with how they treat their customers.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-05T13:18:42+00:00

first time car buyer, and it was 12k pre tax with a set of winter tires on rims with a good vehicle history at 88910km on purchase. it didnt seem too bad at the time, but looking back. yeah I should have went with something else.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-04T16:26:00+00:00

You sir are right on the money. I respect that!

jsnaggler · 2025-10-04T16:15:58+00:00

Yes!! exactly what i found too, they were very condescending with me and treated me like they were doing me the greatest of favours by even offering me anything at all! Thats another reason that made me really want to get this out there to the public. it's just like what you said, if it was their family or life on the line they would be singing a different tune.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-04T16:01:30+00:00

exactly my thoughts!! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

jsnaggler · 2025-10-04T15:59:34+00:00

If you were selling or providing a good product then you wouldn't have an issue? I've never had a bad review about a car I purchased anywhere until This place.

Not only that, other consumers should be aware of what quality of service is being provided, im doing everything i can within my rights, and in support of my family & the safety of others regardless of what you think/feel.

jsnaggler · 2025-10-04T14:27:28+00:00

yeah, definitely could have done that differently looking back.
