Maxi cars Alberto, Jorge and the rest of there staff.. Also known as Maxi Cars Miramar, Florida The Biggest Car Thieves In Broward County!!!!! Miramar, Florida
When I first went to Maxi Cars they were honestly,seemingly nice. They made the process real easy. Now I believe it's only because I had a good relationship with my financial Institution. Well I bought this vehicle two weeks ago and since I've had the car I been stuck on the side of the road twice the first time a hose busted and I over heated, I call Alberto, and he tells me well you bought a used car, WoW so I bring the car to there lot early the next Morning I'm waiting and one of his staff members tells me he won't be here until 12 noon. I had to have my car fixed I have to take my baby to school. So I go to the guy across the street from there dealership. Matrix and they took care of me and I paid out of my pocket and I only had the car for three day's when Alberto told me any problems bring it back. Yeah Right!!
So a day later the oil hose bust so now I was leaking oil and having to drive like that I call him and he tells me to bring it. Well, while driving on the highway the car gets stuck in fifth gear and the shifter is dangling, While trying to exit I almost get hit by to cars. So when I pull over to the side of the road to call Alberto a guy named Jorge picks up at this point I am beside myself, Jorge tells me if you keep yelling at me Ill hang up Which I understood so I calmed down, they did not offer to tow my car for me I had to pay for that myself, And that was just to bring to my house. Now I had to get towed to there car lot another 100 bucks. So they did right and fixed the car and charged me for the oil WoW!!
Two day's later I hear a clicking sound then it turns into a thumping noise at this point no more phone calls on my lunch break I bring the car to them. There mechanic takes a ride with me and he tells me it's the motor mount I said okay no big deal again they want me to pay for the part mind you I haven't had the car two weeks, So he tells me to call him at 4 o'clock, I call and he tells me to come to the lot because he can't explain it to me over the phone, I get there and Jorge and there so called mechanic tells me it's the transmission and that it is not there problem they blamed me and the tow truck company for the transmission breaking and then when I went to speak to Jorge he tells me I'm not dealing with this to talk to Alberto who will be back sometime next week. These guy's are real smooth crooks please don't do business with them I have never been so bamboozooled in my life. Maxi Cars is the definition of a two bit thief company...

Also a vicitim of these guys. Their mechanic hasn't the first clue what he is doing. He ran flammable fluid lines through the headers, Lowered a 1968 Camaro with lowering blocks and cutting springs. Heck the car he sold me in "good running condition" was not only a death trap, but nothing on it worked correctly.
Shot transmission, shot engine, the engine in it very well may have been stolen from 1986 Camaro which had an insurance claim on it. These people are complete crooks and they wire money out of the country as they get it. They thought I'd pay with a cashier's check, and not be able to trace the money.
Tracing transactions and internet connections is my day job. He's finally ripped off the wrong person. Taking him to court next month for $200,000. Put an injunction against his account for foreign transfers. Billing him my max billable per hour for the time I've spent trying to rectify this situation.

Sorry to hear about your run in with them. I am too a victim. Just this past November I bought a 2004 wrx sti. When I first drove the car it ran perfectly fine and "seemed" like it had no problems. Upon purchasing the car I asked alberto and jorge if the car had been in any accidents( I asked them several times) they told me that this car had never been in any accidents and is "mechanically" in good condition.
What a joke that was.After purchasing the car the speakers did not have an amp for them( I had no radio for 2 weeks) ,4 days after purchase the radiator had a crack in it( I had to pay $125 and installed it myself). 2 weeks later the battery fried( was $120).1 month later A piston ring went and car eats oil like a hungry hippo.( The car has always eaten oil since purchase they gave me the car with NO OIL IN IT) so at first I thought maybe it was just not refilled.
2 weeks later the oil was dry and I knew that it was an internal issue. Pretty much I put $5000 down on this car that was 12.9k and I already put about little over $200 for the battery and the radiator. BUT the motor now needs a rebuild kit and the kit and labor is $4,000. I am a college student and cant afford to get ripped off! So I feel your pain.
