We bought a car from this facility 4/08. Everything was represented to be true. It was the best experience I ever had when purchasing a used car. The warranty for used cars in the state of NY is 90 for power train and major defects like that. I would NEVER purchase a used vehicle sight unseen as your remedies are limited. However, if you have the ad stating that it was still under warranty by BMW and they have falsified the condition of the car in the ad, I would send a complaint to the Attorney General's office. Father and Son is very careful as to the cars they get (low mileage and cars in demand only). They've been doing this for over 25 years and I am one happy customer. I'm going to see them tomorrow for an oil change (on the house ;) ) and to replace a brake light bulb that went out this week (I picked up the bulb today). When I originally went there, I tried to "trick them" with a bunch of maneuvers, but they were steady and came through as they promised. Next time, see the car before you buy AND take it to a mechanic for an objective opinion on the condition. It's worth the $300 or so to pay a friend to look at the car and pay the mechanic to check the car over.

a car, sight unseen, is beyond me-especially a USED car. If you still have a copy of the ad, you might make a complaint with the NY State AG office (you can do this online.) You might also consult an attorney to determine what legal remedies might be available to you.

I did not buy the car DIRECTLY from Father & Son Auto. Please read below: My friend who is a manager for a car dealership in Florida was trying to help me buy a car wholesale. We called Father and Son Auto to work out a price. Father and Son Auto wouldn't sell the car DIRECTLY to me for wholesale price, he said we could hit the "buy it now" button on line and he would send the BMW back through the auction for us to buy! So yes, you can say I did not buy it directly from him. Once again, I must clarify the fact that I did not purchase the car directly from FATHER AND SON AUTO. None of this changes the fact that it was the FALSE ADVERTISING in his ad that helped me decide to buy that car!
