cars Selling second cars with major defects

I purchased a car from Canton Auto the earlier part of the year and ever since I purchased the car, I had nothing but problem. The only reason, I purchased the vehicle was that a relative referred me to them. I recently took the car into the dealership and I am having to come out of pocket ($2000.00) for repairs. It is a night-mare seeing that I am on disibility (limited income). I need my vehicle for doctors visit and emergencies. Also, I found that my relative had to pay out -of- pocket thousands of dollars.

Very dissatisfied.

cars MY CAR

So i recently purchase a car nissan sentra black from pars cars @ the southlake location two days later my car stopped on me i am only 19 they taking advantage of people up there especially the black community thats whith the sales people are all black.After constant complaining i went to pars cars on mt.zion location who told me i could cancel my contract with the southlake location and start over there a brand new one im like i'd rather have my money but they kept saying they dont do any refunds. So then my mom picked up another car which was a truck and two days of having that it broke down right across the ways from the location. After looking over the car they suggested i sign another (3rd) contract to get another car im like wtf i am missing school and work because of this and im losing more money and yawl still expect me to pay the monthly fee when im not driving anything.This company is so unfair and bogus that it should be closed forever and the little indidan man is prob the owner but he dont speak. I suggest that everyone keep filing a complaint against these people and eventually something will happen because the company should not be running anywhere.

cars Rude service

This company did $380.00 worth of damage to our car while attempting to install new car speakers. It took them 10 hours and only the back speakers were working alittle. We took the car to stereo warehouse and it took them 4 hours to fix the car. The gentleman at stereo warehouse told us that the people at CARS left live wires hanging in the door and cut wires that should have never been cut. The people at CARS also broke parts on the car door that cost us $43.00 to replace. When I took the bill in and attempted to speak to the man that did all the damage he replied " I wont pay this and wont deal with you". Then he turn around and walked off. I couldn't believe that a business would even act this disrespectful toward their customers. I wasn't going to ask for all the money back but for the differnece that it cost to fix the car, but he wouldn't even listen to me because I was a woman. How RUDE.

cars Problem with toyota in saudi arabia

* The first problem:-
The car had several mechanical defects including oil leakage from the engine. I had to take the car to the maintenance department time and again, but instead of fixing the problem, they just told that it was minor problem and was not dangerous. The said problem got worse during the next 4 months of my using the car. On 26.7.2005, I took the car again to the maintenance department and I was told the oil leakage was of serious nature and the engine needs a complete overhaul. It was really upsetting due to the fact that before this, the maintenance had always said that the problem was minor only. In the earlier instances, either the car was not checked thoroughly or I was given a wrong statement.

* The second problem:-
The window glass of my car was broken by some thief, and it got the window temporarily fixed from an external mechanic due to the reason that the incident happened on a Friday and Toyota maintenance department was closed. The next day, I took the car to Toyota maintenance and I was informed the window machine needed to be changed and its cost would not be covered under warranty. I was puzzled to know that only engine was warranty covered and nothing else in the car.

On 06-08-2005 I sent a complaint to the manager of Khurais branch but unfortunately no solution was found. Instead, the complaint was referred to the rental department manager but I was not able to get any response from him.

On 29-08-2005 I sent a fax to the company general manager but ironically found out the fax number give to me by the company employee was wrong!

On 04-09-2005 I sent the complaint to the general manager of the company by the mail and next day a person name Mr. Hassan Yamani called me and said that he was the sales general manager in rental department. He asked me a few questions and then said he will talk to the Khurais branch manager about complaint, but later on, there was no contact by him whatsoever. I sent the complaint to the general manager, central area, but to no avail at all.

After passing of two months, I started another effort to get the problem resolved. I received a call from the company’s collection department. A person named Mohammed said that repayment of my 2 installments was overdue. I tried to explain to him about the car problem but he said he was not concerned about that, and I must pay the installments. I told him that I will only pay the installments when a solution was found for my problem. That person started threatening me, saying that if I did not pay, he will file a case in the court against me and he would eliminate your functional future, and he would get me terminated from my job, and he would get me imprisoned. This person’s attitude was extremely rude and insulting which does not suit at all for an employee of an esteemed company like yours.

On [protected] I sent a new complaint to Mr. Saad Al-Ghamdi by DHL (consignment # [protected]) but there was no response to that from the company.

After passing of 6 months of suffering, I received a letter from my employer’s HR department that they had received a complaint against me from Toyota about non-payment of installments, so I should either pay the installment of it would adversely affect my job career. This was like jeopardizing me image in the eyes of my employer. At the same time, I received a letter from the company about hearing notification in the court on 17.11.1426. I appeared in the court but your company’s representative did not show up. I got a confirmation letter from the court to this effect.

On 27-03-2006 I sent a complaint by e-mail to the company and a person Mr. Tariq Al-Shawa called me and said he would set a meeting between myself and the rental branch manager and the maintenance branch manager for the solution of the problem. I went for the meeting but unfortunately, no solution could be reached. Mr. Tariq suggested a solution to satisfy both parties that a 2006 model car could be given as replacement but a payment of SR 16, 000 was to be made. I offered to pay SR 10, 000 then and SR 6, 000 later with installments. He agreed and said he will raise the issue to the public administration in Jeddah. After a week, Mr. Tariq contacted me and said that the administration department agreed on the solution. I express my thanks for the cooperation extended by Mr. Tariq. Later, I was contacted by the branch that I should approach them to get a new car as all formalities were complete and the car was ready to be picked up. I went to the branch, ready for payment through credit card, but on reaching there, I was told that the car was at the port and will be delivered to me as soon it was received. This was repeated 3 times, wasting my time and adding to my agony. Finally, I was told that it was not their business and I should go and see the rental department.

On 13-10-2006 I sent a complaint by mail to Mr. Faisal Abdulla the General Manager of the in the Kingdom and Mr. Tariq Al-Shawa contacted me again and said he would fix a meeting with quality service department manager. In the meeting, the service quality manager said he would find a solution for the problem but two days later, Mr. Tariq informed me that my request was rejected by the administration department.

On 20-11-2006 I sent an e-mail to [protected]@toyota.jp and on 28-11-2006 I already received the following e-mail from TMC CR Division.

Dear Respected Sir

Since Last 2 years i am facing Manufacturing Problem in Renault Duster.

Vehicle Details: Number Plate 6810 - JDJ

Vehicle Engine Number: VF1HSRCA7EA509556

As every employee of Renault in Riyadh knows that i have purchased New Car till date i faced these problems.

1) Warmer Heater Problem
2) Air Leak
3) Break Jerk

Many visit to Renault After Sales and Services for repair above said problems, even many engineers came from different country to solve but they all failed to fix since till now no one fixed. Kindly go through my old records with Riyadh Renault After Sales and Services GAA, most of the days my car was in Workshop for repair but till now no result.

In the last meeting with special person of Renault Engineer from France who promised me lot but nothing happen.

Therefore, my request to Renault Issue me Latest Model Car or Take back pay my amount.

I informed many country regarding Renault Company how they deal with customers in Middle East, even i was planning to upload clips into YOUTUBE but i still wait for some one who can understand my situation.

Note: Mr. Santos Raj Kumar told me that may be my pedaling wrong, i want to tell all employee of Renault that if my pedaling wrong why i am not complaining in Winter season only this happen in Summer Season also while using AC. So think genuine to solve the issue amicably.
