You'd think that they'd at least make an offer of a "loaner" car to use while the car is being evaluated and worked on until it truly gets "fixed".
Ask for proof of them working on and fixing it. Threaten to take legal action, that should solve the problem real quick.

What legal action exactly??

Buying a used car your legal options are very limited.. You aren't protected by lemon laws.. and it's Caveat Emptor for most cases.. "Buyer Beware"

He bought from Hodges because of remarks in here about how great a dealer he was.. of course all of the 'great' remarks were from people that bought from him that had no repair issues.. and we really didn't get a feeling about how they treat customers with issues.

WE know now, that they won't do what you'd expect a dealer to do..

If anyone could offer name(s)/location of a dealership that you have dealt with and are pleased with I would really appreciate it. thanks so much
Just a tip.....If you buy a vehicle from like Car Max or something and get their warranty..not all dealerships take those warrantys. Working at a dealership I have come to see things like that. I will ALWAYS buy a new or used vehicle from a dealership. Just wanted to let you know that.

I just figured if they say its under warranty and will not fix it there would be some sort of legal action to take. Sorry about the bad experiences.

Southerns was where I bought my LR.. and it was at a high APR.. but that was after years of being a broke college student..

The good news.. I just paid it off today.. 2 years early!!!
