Description of the problem | My 16 bought a car from bommarito vw hazelwood, they told us it had prior engine work and the customer couldn't pay for the charges so they sold us the car. When test driving we heard a clunk every time you would excel. The salesman said it was stuff in the trunk. Come to find out there are no motor mounts holding the motor and the motor goes up in the air when you give the car gas, the motor hit the exhaust and broke it. There is no way this car passed inspection with a motor hanging there, you can't see through the back window because the tint is so bad. A dealership should not of sold a vehicle with a motor like this, it's a bit dangerous to put a young girl in. It has taken me two weeks for someone to call me back. |
