Lamont sold me a lemon vehicle. Lamont managed to get a false inspection form and provided it to me and stated the vehicle has passed inspection. Once vehicle was taken to multiple mechanic shops to find out if its even able to be fixed and as 3 mechanics stated I was sold a lemon car and they are "Unable to fix" the problem. Lamont was contacted on multiple times through calls/text msgs, and voice mails and as of today none of my calls were answered. Lamont then blocked my number and continued to avoid me and the car situation he put me through. I've been trying to reach him every day since the last time he gave me the vehicles documents. I am filing this report to the best of my knowledge with the information he gave me for the vehicle. I would love to get a refund back of all my money spent for this vehicle that was sold to me as a lemon.
Dealer sold me a lemon car with broken and rotten parts on the car. Dealer never stated the car was messed up or needed the major work it needs now. Dealer at one point took the car to go get inspected at a shop located on 705 Jefferson Ave, "and hour later he came back with the car and parked it. Couple days later dealer called me to go get the inspector form form the inspector " Gilbert/Tony". While viewing the paper correctly, the car was never inspected properly. Once I was able to take the car to a shop to do my own inspection they stated to me that I was sold a lemon car and it would be almost thousands to fix the car "more then i had purchase the car. I called the dealer back multiple times and sent msgs to the dealer regarding the vehicle dealer then blocked my number and the mechanics phone I used to call him after he blocked my number. As of now I am trying to figure out a way to get this car fix and filing a complaint report against this dealer to at lease get justices from this dealer and for him to get his business SHUT DOWN due to selling people as in myself broken lemon cars.
While driving the vehicle home after purchase on 6/11/2022 the vehicle experienced automatic, minor brake application. However, when we applied the brakes it was as if they fully locked up. By the time we got to the side of the road all of the brakes were smoking. It has been returned to the dealership 3 times for the same issue and they currently have the vehicle. They have experienced the same issue when they were trying to fix the issue but they cannot seem to figure it out. While I was investigating, I noticed that the 2005 Honda Pilot had the same issue, and the recall was started for the 2007 Honda Pilot also but was never issued. It makes it very unsafe to drive.
The contact owns a 2007 Honda Pilot. While driving 55 mph, a burning rubber odor was detected along with a thumping vibration and noise; when brake pedal was depressed the brakes did not respond normally but the thumping vibration was even more apparent. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who determined that the brake calipers were locking up and ruining the rotors; after replacement of calipers and rotor, the problem persisted with extensive overheating of the brakes. It was then determined that the vehicle stability assist module had failed and needed replacement. The mechanic contacted the closest Honda dealer (approximately 70miles away) who advised that the vehicle should be rapaired by the mechanic and not driven to the dealer due to the likelihood of F ull brake lock up or failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 200,000. The dealer tested the replaced part (vsa module) and determined that it had in fact failed due to an internal short.
