I drove 75 miles to look at a car. When I get there I find it has 2 huge rock chips in windshield and a cut in lower fender, where it meets the door. The door had rust where it had been rubbing the fender. Strange for a 2012. It also had broken weatherstripping on both rear door side windows. I asked to have it all fixed and the manager got angry and said if I wanted all that fixed there would be no deal. I settled on having the fender,door,windshield fixed. I took the car home and returned it to have it fixed. I received a call that it was done. I go to pick it up to find they had messed up the plastic molding under the fender. It was now yellowish, on a silver car. The undercoating on the fender ran and discolored the molding. I can't understand how no one saw this before they called me. The salesman said it looked great when he called me. The salesman was not there, so I asked the receptionist who I could talk to. She pointed me to the managers office. I stood in the door and said hi, one guy was on the phone and the other just sitting there. Neither person acknowledged me. The receptionist called me back after she noticed me still standing in the door way after 5 minutes. She had the salesman on the phone. I told him what was going on he said he would fix the problem. I hung up the phone and turn around to see the receptionist and manager whispering to each other. She then asks me if everything was ok, I said I would like to show the car to a manager. So I showed it to a manager and they said they would fix it. So 3 days later the salesman calls and says he told the place they took the car, that it looked like crap and they need to re paint the molding. He says its ready to pick up and looks great. I go to get it again on a Sunday, I find that the molding was NOT painted. They tried to buff it out, but I can still see it. If I didn't know it was there I might not notice. I was told it was painted and it was not. Being a Sunday no one was there, so I just took the car home. Total miles I drove to supposedly have this car fixed was 3 trips and 450 miles. The car should have NEVER been put on the lot in that condition. I have NO faith in the 172 point inspection. The certified technician checked off that the windshield,fender,door were OK. So if he couldn't see huge rock chips and a hole in the fender how can I trust any of the other things that he supposedly checked. This has been the worst purchase I have ever made. I will never be back and I will use social media to let everyone know what I went through.
