Fraudulent vehicle inspection & emissions done on a regarding 2001 Oldsmobile Intrigue, purchase date, March 17, 2014. I have been back and forth between their approved shops and my usual mechanic taking an excessive time from work to try to get the repairs done. The car was found to have an issue with the fuel distribution, the front turn signals aren't firing which will require a replacement headlight assembly, and I was also told that the gas gauge sensor may need to be replaced. The oil light & check engine lights are also on. All these things I was assured would be repaired by [xxx], the salesperson. He stated the inspection facility, pa station id#[xxx], has been sending the vehicles to them partially inspected and they are aware of the issue. This vehicle "inspection" was on 3/4/14, and I believe this shop, and others like it, are knowingly defrauding consumers of this establishment.
