THE NEXT DAY I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK, AND I TOLD THEM THAT THE NOISE WAS VERY BAD AND THAT I WILL BRING THE VEHICLE BACK, THE VEHICLE HAD 2783 MILES ON IT AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THEY SOLD ME A CAR WITH A BAD TRANSMITION, I WAS 5 DAYS WITHOUT A CAR TO GO TO WORK. THE PROBLEM WAS GENERATED WHEN THE DEALER INSTEAD OF EXCHANGE THE CAR, THEY WILL FIX IT AND PUT A NEW TRANSMITION, I HAVEN'T HEAR FROM THEM, AND FOR WHAT I OBSERVED THE SERVICE IS VERY POOR, I THINK THAT THEY SHOULD IT EXCHANGE THE VEHICLE, WITHOUT QUESTIONS ASK, THEY NEW THAT THE CAR WASN'T READY FOR SALE, BUT THEY CHOOSE TO SET UP A NEW SALESMAN THAT HE SAW THE OPORTUNITY TO MAKE BUSINESS WITH ME, ALSO I CALLED THE CREDIT UNION TO TRY TO STOP THE CHECK, BUT FOR ONE NIGHT TO THE OTHER MORNING THE DEALER CASHED THE CHECK, THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME.
