Mantolooking Motors ripoff, sold me a lemon,dishonest,fraudelent Brick New Jersey
I purchased a 1994 Grand Prix, every since I put this thing on the road I have problems. I had to spend over 600 in car repairs alone, After spending the 600 hundred to fix what was wrong, my mechanic told me there was an oil leak he thought it was coming from the valve cover gaskets. I have not fixed it yet since I check the valve cover gaskets and they don't appear to be leaking. Also the transmission is leaking, I noticed this when I put the car on ramps to find the oil leak problem. There was transmission fluid all over the place.
Then when I wouldnt continue making my weekly payments he repossed the car. He charged me 450.00 to get the car back. I paid but then after all this other stuff happened I stop paying it. I called him Tuesday Sept 19th to tell him I am returning the car. He said I should bring it back to him that day I told him I was not but would be returning to him on Saturday September 23rd. I want a piece of paper from stating that I return the car.
He then call me on September 21st and said this so called bank wasnt going to wait until Saturday. Needless to say at 9pm he sent someone to pickup the car on September 21. The car was not here so they just left.
This guy rip me off and I want him to give me all my money I paid the car including the repairs. Please tell me how you could help me,

You know the funny thing is. Figured there would be people like yo out there. What kinda person puts a car on the lot to begin with like it was. I did take it to a mechanic and he didnt say wether or not not to to buy. He said that it was a good sound running car. THe problem I have with this dealer is he lied to me. He said the car was in good condition when it really wasn't. There so many tricks dealers play. Like putting in thicker oil to hopefully slow down a leak so its not that obvious. And move the car aroud the lot so you cant tell it leaks. So as far your comments I think you need to understand all the facts. THis isnt the first time this guy has done this to people. And let me tell you I was in contact with this guy when I lost my job and told him I was going to be alittle late on making the payments. THis guy only wants to take advantage of people and sometimes hhere misfortunes. Put a good product out and there will be no need for a complaint. And especially dont lie and tell me there is a bank involved when ther really isnt. And after putting all that money in to it I am the one who has to take then SHAME on him.

First of all, it is a 12 year old car. Leaks and other problems are to be expected. Did you have a mechanic inspect it before you bought it? Bet not. Funny thing; when payments stop, cars get repossessed. That's the way it works. Finally, you are not entitled to any money back herem in fact, you may still owe for a deficiency balance if they resell the care for less than what you still owed on it. In that case, you'd be responsible for court costs and attorney fees as well if they procede to get a judgment against you for the deficiency. The best thing you can hope for it that they just let you walk away at this point and don't pursue you for any deficiency.
