DiBlasi Ford Motors Ripoff Scammers and Switch n baiters Corona New York
I bought a 2005 Ford Taurus from DiBlasi in Queens a year ago. The car was bought with 16,181 miles and now has about 44,000 highway miles. Last month the car started experiencing transmission problems with two error codes regarding 2nd and 3rd gear incorrect ratio. Called Diblasi and no help whatsoever, they wiped their hands clean and even hung up on me a few times. Called Ford regarding the issues of the car and got brushed off a few times. When I purchased the car I was supposed to get a different car but persuaded me to get the one I have now.. until the recent tranny issues I found out that this car was a fleet vechile and sold at an auction by Hertz Corp in PA and then bought by DiBlasi and then sold to me not even two weeks later.. GOT PLAYED!! I am starting a small claims case and reporting them to everyone and thier mother! BBB Auto Line, Consumer affairs etc... Any help would be great!

40,000 miles in a year on the weekends?

My mother has a car that it 3 years old and she uses it for business, and she travels from NY to Kentucky, and NY to Maine, several times a year when I visited her at christmas she barely had over 50,000 miles on it. In 3 YEARS. (And yes she does other traveling even closer as well, she is only home for vacations, and the occasional week she actually works in her office. And she still drives that same car.) So for you to say that you put that many miles on it in one year for pleasure. Seems ludacris to me. (Also my husband his car for a year and then drove it cross country, (WA to NJ) and still didn't put 40,000 miles on it.)

Delivery Vehicle Or Taxi?

Just shy of 28,000 miles in one year is alot of miles in that part of the world. The vehicle would have had a 3 year or 36,000 mile warranty even if you had purchased it new, which you didn't. You could have purchased an extended warranty which you didn't. Do you use it as a delivery vehicle or a taxi? Or just take alot of trips. The reason I ask about the delivery/taxi is because you state 2nd and 3rd gear problems. As much as I hate car dealers, you didn't have a problem with them or their vehicle until after a year, in which you've put 28,000 miles on their vehicle.
