My damaged and total loss Sonic

[Ms.DannyStone]

Today i went to Tom Bannen Chevrolet to get over 13 things done on my car.. and they gave me a rental and within an hour they were calling saying I NEED to come back now.. turns out my car was purchased feb of 2012 and then it was wrecked and declared totaled August 25th of 2012 and the dealer I bought it from bought it and fixed it and somehow got the milage from 9k to 0 and I bought this car "new" with 15 miles on it.. so they would not do any warrenty work on my car because all my warrenty on my car is voided now and I already called the dealer ship where I bought it and said I was going to sue and he hung up.. so I called a lawyer today and they will be calling me back.. the dude said I could get the car plus my money I payed for the car and the money I put into this car. Tired of this **** of being screwed over and I will fight this to the end.

Well, guess we know why it's been such an issue!

 

[Bogus]

They are so f*cked over this

 

[HADES20]

Sounds like one those crime shows

 

[rondoman]

Hell yeah!!

Take the bastards for all they are worth! This is a major, major issue.

Selling a totaled car as new? Wow.

 

[ChrisJ]

What about the rims?

 

[wasteoffilm]

Time to Carfax all the new cars now, I suppose.

Good luck!!!

 

[rondoman]

When did you purchase the car?

 

[Ms.DannyStone]

What about the rims?

Yup told Bogus to ask preloader for a receipt

 

[Bogus]

She was stressing out earlier but I told her to think about what's gonna come out of all this in the end. I would be pissed for what they did but at the same time excited.

This.

I'm excited for you, Danny. Seems like he nightmare is finally coming to a head so you can deal with it. I'm sorry you've had to get to this point but at least it's out and you can hopefully look forward to getting the Sonic you deserve.

 

[ChrisJ]

No point in being pissed or upset, they didn't do it to hurt her specifically. Its just business, and its BAD business.

I mean I donno if that makes any sense, but they would've sold it to anyone just the same so its nothing personal. They just suck.


If I were you, I'd post their name here, but maybe you should ask the lawyer first and proceed with caution.


So, that all being said, when is the Sonic Dusk coming?

 

[ungawd]

Wow.......

Isnt it a federal offense to tamper with the odometer? This could get ugly for them.

I didn't even know you could tamper with them anymore. Do dealers have that capability via software?
I thought this was the main thing that drove them towards digital odometers in the first place.

I think she should ask for a fully loaded RS.

I MAY be biased.

Now now,

The Dusk vs RS are two different vehicles designed for two different things. I would never buy an RS because of the gas mileage alone. Not to mention I don't know how I feel about my engine doing 3K+ every day for two hours. Can't see it lasting as long as when its doing 2K for the same length. When I drive the wife's Cruze I try to keep it around 70MPH just for this reason.


The Dusk should have the same gearing as my Sonic and I do around 2500rpm at 80-82MPH. Quite a bit different than your RS I'm sure.

If I'm remembering right the Dusk is designed around luxury rather than Sport? I wouldn't mind looking at a Dusk. I'm not saying the RS is bad, its just not the right tool for the job I use it for.

Sorry for hijacking the thread Danny.

Yes it is a federal offense. (Just asked my step father)

 

[Ms.DannyStone]

This is whats up.. they got away with it being a "new" car because technically im the first owner because an insurance company owned it so it does not count as a person owning it.. and in the state of KY if u have a rebuilt car u will get a rebuilt title. and since an insurance company had the car they didint report the wreck and sold it and did not really report it so thats why I didint get a rebuilt title

O my gosh. So sorry to hear, it may be a long road for you but I bet it will end well in your favor.
