Gigolo, I agree with you about Honest Larry. My girlfriend and I purchased the silver 2000 Ford Mustang with the chrome rims less then 3 months ago. What a headache it has been. It has been brought to Larry's shop since three times to fix a check engine light. Our 90 day warranty is almost over. Larry was given a letter stating the issues needed to be fixed or I was going to the attorney general. Last week, I went up to Bloomingdale to pick up the car. Larry claimed it was fixed and good as new. Well wouldn't you know the check engine light came back on. I took the car to Advanced Auto and put it on the computer for free to see what the issues were. Three codes came up that were supposely fixed. My girlfriend called honest Larry and he became defensive and rude on the phone to her. She explained the issues and told Larry he needed to fix the problems or he needed to buy the car back from us. He told her he was in no position to buy the car back and he was doing us a " FAVOR " by fixing what was wrong because he didn't have to. We asked if we could bring the car to a Ford dealership to where we just moved downstate and he said yes and to have them call him. I called the Ford dealer in Saratoga to see if they could look at it and give me a quote and then send the bill to Larry and they said no they couldn't do it. I would have to pay the Ford dealership and then have Larry reimburse me. Who has hundreds of dollars to have the car looked at, fixed, and then have Larry say no to the reimbursement. I dropped $2,000 cash on his table and thought he would of good faith make this car deal go right. From the day we bought this the check engine light has been on. How did he pass the inspection with the repetitive problems still occuring??? His mechanic is a joke, not sure if he is even a certified mechanic. I guess I will need to make a phone call to Tom the NYS inspector and have him pay Larry a visit. Larry is far from honest. Buys all these cars from the auction in Clifton Park never cleans or fixes them before he puts them out for sale and expects people to be safe in there $6,000 vehicles and happy. I'm am going the legal way on Larry and his establishment. It might take me awhile to find the right attorney but I will get justice for his actions. BUYERS PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS CAR DEALERSHIP!!!!!!! If anyone has any recommendations for me please let me know. Paul
