On August 14th 2012 I purchased a car from Automobile Giants four days later on August 18th 2012 the car had then stopped working and was undrivable I was without transportation for more than a week because the dealer was unwilling to assist me in any repairs, in so many words he told me I was screwed. The day that I purchased the car I was assured that the car was fine and there were no serious problems with the car, I had asked about the rumble coming from the car and I was told its because of the dual pipes on the car.

I then purchased the car and on saturday August 15th 2012 in the afternoon I took the car to Firestone auto Repair to get the muffler checked out because of the low rumble 3hrs later when they completed the diagnostics the mechanic had contacted me and told me the problems before I picked up the car and told me that the repairs would be over 7000 in repairs. I had contacted the dealer on August 15th 2012 after getting the news of the issues with the car I had never received and return calls fron the manager. 

For the remaining of the weekend I did not drive the car because I didn't want to make matters worse. Om August 18th early morning I needed to have someone watch my youngest daughter to go to my doctors appointment and the car stalled and stopped on me in the middle of the road, A passerby pushed my car into the lot closet by because I was pregnant.

The dealer Jameel when I walked in that dealership and chose the car I wanted after running back and forth with my mother looking at cars all morning and afternoon all he saw was a pregnant woman and dollar signs. Since the car had stopped my father had a certified mechanic come over to my home to locate the problem which he noticed was the fuel pump which has since been replaced however he said there where other problems as well. though the car is running I only drive it if absolutely necessary

Your goal was dependable transportation. If someone in your family knows a real, certified mechanic then why did you not take him along BEFORE the purchase instead of after? Secondly, did you get a warranty? If not, you bought the car "AS IS" which means all problems are your problems and the seller is under ZERO obligation to provide free repairs.
