Car Buying Warning
Car Buying Warning – Learn from Experience
I’m sharing this to help others avoid a difficult situation I experienced after purchasing a vehicle from a salesperson named Roy at Pricemark Motors.
I bought the car on 30th August 2025, and on the same day, it developed an overheating fault. After contacting the dealership, I was directed to go through the warranty process and was advised to report the issue in a way that did not reflect when it actually started.
I chose to be honest and informed the warranty provider that the issue began on the first day of purchase. The claim was then rejected, likely on the basis that the fault was considered pre-existing.
The situation then became increasingly frustrating:
It took around 5 months for the dealership to arrange collection of the vehicle for repairs
The car was kept for nearly a month
When it was returned, the same overheating issue reoccurred the very next day
I reported this again but received no meaningful response
At that point, I felt I had no choice but to return the vehicle. It was officially returned on 25th March 2026.
The matter is currently under investigation by the finance company, and I am awaiting the outcome.
