I bought a used 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 truck with only 109,724 miles from this place last Friday (5/27/16) for my 19 year old son. Here is my experience - PLEASE READ THE WHOLE STORY: My husband did all the negotiating and I was simply going in to sign paperwork and pay. What my husband negotiated in the price was a new set of tires and a sensor for the windows. When I got there the following day to purchase the vehicle Jim the sales person had a different story and the tires and sensor were not included and he added $500 to the price. My husband insisted that this was not what they discussed and is not what he noted on his pad of paper during the negotiations. He also tried to negotiate a 30 day warranty but Lake Wylie Motors declined and now I know why. I proceeded with the transaction anyway out of GOOD FAITH that perhaps there was a misunderstanding on the tires and sensor and trusted that although I was buying "as-is" I would not be shafted. Next, my son drove the truck ONLY 300 miles and 27 hours after purchasing it the truck started to present a horrible knock. I had it checked out and it is indeed a rod knock in the lower engine which was quoted $7-8,000 to fix. I went to Lake Wylie Motors for help and they said and I quote "We do not feel like we are responsible" so they offered nothing but to get me a quote on replacing the engine. The expense to replace the engine will be at the same cost of what I paid for the truck.

I read the WHOLE STORY.....

And you are not going to like to hear this.  But IF you were "Ripped Off", you allowed them to do it even though you had several opportunities to get up and leave.

First of all with your husband's great negotiating skills, how come he didn't get them to allow him to get this 12 year old truck with over 100K miles inspected by an INDEPENDENT mechanic?  Especially when they refused to give you any sort of warranty.  Sure he got them to give you tires and a sensor for the windows...oh wait he didn't.  Umm..perhaps your husband is as big of a pushover as you.

Next, why would you allow the deal that you thought you had agreed to be changed?  Why didn't you use your own two feet and walk out?  Oh and don't try to use the sob story of "Oh my son had his heart set on this truck and we couldn't disapoint him because of (add violin story here)".  Because guess what if that is really the case.  Your son is an Adult and needs to pardon the expression but "grow a pair" and probably should have been the one negotiating.  He may have even done a better job.

You bought the truck "As-Is".  So it didn't matter if your son drove it 300 miles, 3000 miles or 3 feet.  Once you signed on the dotted line YOU took responsibility for anything and everything that goes wrong with that truck.

All On You!

It was YOU who agreed to the terms of purchase which were detailed in the contract.  The deal is not governed by "how you feel" but by what the contract says.  You knew, and admitted here, the terms were different yet YOU chose to play doormat and go along with it.

 

NO RIPOFF HERE -- Complainer went along with the terms of the deal rather than standing up for themself.
