Hey all, I don't want to slander anyone, but be cautious if buying a used car at Crowfoort Village Honda.
I ended up putting a deposit on a car I won't mention (2001 "Missan Naxima ") because it was an awesome price for a sweet ride. I wasn't able to get to see it for a week and a half, firstly because it was "loaned out by the manager" then it was a a Nissan Dealership to get something fixed, then because my schedule conflicted. I was told they had no idea what the history was on it, but that it was a trade in for a new car.
After finally driving it, it seemed decent, and I was going to buy it. But i had a funny feeling I should check it out. So I did a background check and looked into it more. It turns out that they had actually sold it to some other lady, and then bought it back because of mechanical problems.
Now it should be mentioned that I did get a prompt refund when I said I was no longer interested. But it just goes to show that the number one rule in car shopping is that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Upon writing this article the whole things seems a little trivial now, but I sure wasn't happy that they were lying to me when they said they didn't know the history, or anyting else but that it "is one nice vehicle in top notch condition."
Hopefully they fix the problem for future buyers. Do your homewrok guys, happy hunting.
