Exactly what your parents warned you about! I have heard about the practices used by "Used" car dealers and found my gem of a story on the reasons to stay away from them. -The salesman Byan Olds seemed like a pretty legit guy. I am not sure if he knew the car had five pounds of makeup covering up her ugly issues. I will give him the benefit of the doubt. -I purchased a 2013 Subaru Outback that had plenty of miles on it. Very understandable for the price we paid. The car looked in great working order and made a clean test drive. I give the mechanics a thumbs up on making these cars look and sound great long enough to get off the lot. - Rust was at a acceptable level from the visual stand point if the vehicle is not on a shop's lift. Once I took the car to my trusted mechanic, the lipstick came off the pig. My Mechanic found clear evidence of rust poorly painted over. Undercarriage and engine compartment had overspray from what looks like black paint from a spray can. Major parts of the engine, mounts, pulleys and suspension were painted over with no attempt to remove the rust first. A true example of a lazy attempt at corrosion prevention. -The car-fax showed no evidence of accidents. The first evidence to show I should have dug deeper was the rear left quarter panel. It was peeled up enough that the broken clips holding it in place were visible. My mechanic found that the whole rear bumper must have been replaced. The rear trunk lid was misaligned. There are gaps that have me wondering if the frame might even be warped. The exhaust pipe does not clear the cut out in the plastic bumper so it has melted from the heat. Not sure if that is a fire hazard. I guess the only silver lining is, that if it does catch fire, my awesome insurance will replace the car. - The exhaust has a broken heat shield that is holding on with one non rusted bolt. It did not rattle with the initial test drive. Once we got the car on the highway it sounded like it was bouncing off the exhaust. The entire exhaust system will need to be replaced so I figure that will be a great time to also replace the heat shield. - I did call the manager or owner after my mechanic looked at the vehicle. The state of Washington only considers a car a lemon if it is sold from a reputable detailer. "As is" is a thing. The manager had zero intention of taking the car back, so that was already a sign of the customer service I should have expected. He did offer to have his mechanic(the same ones that painted over the rust to hide it) look at it and fix any safety issues. I guess they can only be sued if the car has obvious safety issues. -If you have to deal with a company like this, please do yourself a service and read the reviews on Google and similar pages. I had the unlucky circumstance, that COVID did not allow for my Mechanic to look the car over until three weeks later. Yes it might be a pain in the butt to have the car brought into the mechanic(even if it is theirs) so they can put it on a lift, it might save you the headache and money it will take to fix the problems. Those kind of decisions are easy. Just pass on the car. If you know you are getting a junker and are o.k. with paying for one, this is your place.

Worst service ever!!!!!! They didn't even act like they wanted my money lol like he was to worried about going to lunch to sell me a car I was told to hold on while he talked on phone poor poor service not welcoming probly cause I was in my work clothes they thought I was poor didn't even ask me to sit down while I waited or anything rude people

Great site for reviews Found solid information on cars I am researching to purchase next year. The info was better than I found in car and driver. Good place for comparisons.

Bias everywhere This website tends to review with a lot of bias on varies makes and models. I NEVER trust their opinions alone since they often clash with other reviews and owner reviews.
