IF YOU BUY FROM HERE...GET YOUR CAR…

IF YOU BUY FROM HERE...GET YOUR CAR CHECKED WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK!!! While the customer service at the Indy location was exceptional, the vehicle I purchased is not. Day 3 of me having my vehicle, things took a turn for the worse. 2.5 months in I have now been in the shop 5 times, and there has been a LOT of work done on the car. One of which is an issue in the braking system (which was taken in right after I purchased the car and was not properly fixed the first, second, third, OR fourth time) They have covered most everything that has been fixed on the car, but having to worry if my vehicle is going to break down on me, having to take time out of work, and having to talk back and forth with them about the issues on multiple occasions, is insane. When the vehicles inner tie rod is bad on day 3 of the purchase and then the control arm is messed up, and water pump and timing chain and ALL brakes, it's just crazy and there is NO WAY a proper inspection was completed. Now that I am past the 30 days (but still dealing with some of the same issues) I can't trade in and I am stuck with hoping another item doesn't go bad!
