Dealership sold me a lemon vehicle...went to look at the vehicle, ended up purchasing the vehicle.
Test drove the vehicle and decided to purchase it.  Went through all the paperwork and came home.  I noticed that the further I drove it something did not seem right.  Brought it home, took out the floor covers and the floor mats were like someone poured a bucket of water in the vehicle, it was very wet.  Then 2 days later the service engine soon light came on.  Well I went to Cumberland Maryland and the speedometer quit working!  What a fright to continue to drive and not know your speed.  The very next day I called and told them they said to bring it down and told them then there was no spare tire.  I was not able to at that time.  Three weeks and 775 miles later I checked the tires there was no tread on the inside of the tire.  None.......  I further checked the vehicle out and found the heat to the back does not work at all, the front heat will not work on high and the other day it did not work at all, the oil pressure gauge broke, CD does not work, plus the other things.  I looked at the inspection record for it and it was just inspected 17 days prior to me purchasing it.  So how in the hell did those tires pass inspection?  Being a female, I feel robbed, I have a vehicle I cannot afford to put tires on (should be their responsibiliy) and a vehcile I cannot drive and making payments on.  I wrote to them telling them I wanted everything fixed and to come and pick it up with a roll back.....no response.

In response to your missing information.....2004 Chevrolet Trailblazer and I did do a test drive
the floor papers was taken up but the floor carpert was not checked and the non working components-speedometer-It happened after the purchase as well as the oil pressure gauge
and which could all be linked together.  I am not a mechanic.  Just a poor working single woman. 
So which when my son checked the engine when he was with me...we inadvertantly did not
check for a spare tire...something that you would trust a dealership and knowlegeable
salesperson to know, instead of being taken advantage of.  By the way my son did not take
a penny out of his pocket and check the tire tread.  Although he did rub his hand over the one
front tire.  This vehicle is not driven every day and there was no way I did this to the tires! 
I purchased the vehicle and it completely fell apart from there.  All I want is a dealer to stand
behind the lemon.

The most important info here has been left out.

What is the year, make, model, and mileage of the vehicle?

Also, WHY would you buy a vehicle without doing a thorough test drive and testing out every single item in the car?

If you don't know anything about cars, WHY wouldn't you take someone with you that does??

This is all just common sense.
