North Hills Auto Mall Regis Mannke Lied about condition of vehicle Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
I purchased a vehicle from them in May 2009 for $4000 and was lied to about the condition and number of previous owners. I was told I was looking at a 2 owner vehicle and it was actually a 4 owner vehicle not including the 2 times it was bought and sold by dealers at an auto auction. I was also told that the vehicle had been on the lot for a "couple of weeks". That was a lie. I should have been more cognizant of the dry rotted tires. The vehicle title records showed the car had sat there almost 2 years. 6 months later the engine was shot and leaking oil everywhere.
A car isnt built to sit. The seals rot and dry out. Regis also said that a 3/month 3,000 mile warranty was included in the price of the vehicle. Well after not hearing from the warranty company after 30 days I decided to contact them. They had no record of the vehicle. Regis had just decided to pocket the warranty money. I guess he figured the 3 months would go by and we wouldnt notice that he hadnt registered the vehicle with the company. I contacted Regis and he said he only sends the paperwork in once a month. That was BS and a lie. If something had happened to the vehicle in that 30 day period it wouldnt have been covered.
He subsequently sent in the paperwork for the warranty. This also isnt the first time he has done this.. There is a civil complaint on record in Allegheny County. Records show someone he sold a car to had problems with their vehicle and when they contacted the warrany company they had no record of the vehicle. It is noted however that North Hills Auto Mall won that suit. I dont know how. I also don't know how they keep deleting my review on Yahoo.com. I am filing a complaint with Yahoo. Ive also noticed that other negative reviews there are also being deleted. Don't trust this company, they are very shady.

They know what you are, just as your victims do.
The ONLY rebuttal accepted would be the offer of PROOF that you have NOT been cited, and fined, by Pennsylvania State Police, for violation of auto sales laws.
Be careful, they'll cite you again, if you produce fraudulent documentation.
Signed, The person you've always deserved to victimize.

We here at North Hills Auto Mall would like to thank all of our customers for purchasing certified vehicles. As you can see, from the few complaints these are all vehicles that cost under $2,500 and were sold as is, with no warranty. We sincerly regret that these people don't perform the vital parts of the car's maintence such as checking the fluids (such as oil and antifreeze). An as is car is an as is car and a certified car is a certified car, BIG price difference. Once again, thanks to our loyal customers.
