Area Auto Center

Definitely do not recommend purchasing a vehicle from here.  We purchased a vehicle from this location.  We were told that it was in great condition and that it did not need anything done to it.  "They had checked it all out."  After driving it I could tell it needed new brakes and tires and we negotiated the brake job into the price.  It took forever to get the title from them as we learned after the fact that it was a repossessed vehicle.  Within three weeks we found out that the vehicle had a ton of work that was needed.  We ended up finding out that the windshield wiper fluid spray mechanisms were removed completely, the engine had spark plugs in it that were so bad that one had eroded in there and two of the four engine mounts were cracked.  The shifting mechanism had crap spilled on it so much that it caused the shifting mechanism to stick, which causes the vehicle to not start or shut off as you can't remove the key properly unless it is trigger properly.  The mechanic that repaired it stated that it looked like someone had put some type of temporary lubricant on it to make it work temporarily as well as a temporary fix to the engine mounts to basically make it last long enough to get it sold.  When I tried to call the shop, they never returned my calls.  While I understand that the vehicle was sold AS IS, it is definitely a location that the BUYER NEEDS TO BE AWARE.
