Description of the problem	I have now had 2 problems with this dealership, and personally i believe everyone deserves second chances, the first vehicle the seller sold me had major issues with gas tank had a hole in it and exposed wires right next to it so that truck was a ticking time bomb, now i have a 2006 ford explorer with more issues but again the seller makes its seem like a pretty reliable car and lies about the issues, covers up the stories and thank god my buddy is a mechanic and i take everything i buy to him, when i first received the car, (as many people not many people know anything as soon as they hear a weird noise) i took it to him and he rides with me and notices some major issues, i took it for a drive and the back suspension was going out (got that replaced) then the transmission slipping , like not only was lied to but now having to pay 2000$ just to keep the car running, not suitable for me nor anyone, i feel bad for whoever this seller also lies to. And i am fully aware that someone could get their license revoked for stuff like this, if anyone with clear eyes can see this seller screws people over. I texted the guy about returning the vehicle and just to get my money back but yet again no answer.
