Purchase a salvage 2016 C-300 mercedes benz 06-01-17, put a deposit down of 500.00. After the initail deposit spoke with Max who works for dealership , since the car was a salvage 2016 ask if the warranty was still valid and I was told yes, I purchase the car sight unseen, but felt confident purchasing the car , since it still had a warranty until 2021, couple weeks later sent additional payments for the 2016 c-300 , ask again regarding the warranty and was told the same its good. Also inqired to ask once i pay off the car will I be given a temporary tag to drive it, was told yes, for 30 days. Purchase the car from Los Angles and was going to drive it to Hayward , Ca.

On 06-01-17 paid the entire balance of the car off 24k and  decided to have the car shipped. The car was dropped off at my house on 06-06-17, I was not at home at that time. When i got home i inspected the car and notice a few things wrong with the car, contacted Max to address some of the issues and I was told some of the issues could have been caused by the transporter company, so I decided i can deal with those since the company was not going to accept fault.

So I contated Mercedes Benz to diascuss my warranty and I was told that the warranty is voided to due the salvage title section 9. I sent Max a text stateing the facts , but never gotten a response back. later on that day I emailed Gregory Tim with an explanation of what i found out regarding my warranrty. He also was not cooperating, then i went on to let me know some of the other problems with the car, like I was told that i would received a temporary tag to drive my car, and that I was told my Max the car had a warrantyyet he went on about how i got a deal on the car, but he never addresses the 2 issues at habd, and that is the car has no warranty and I have not received a temporary tag like i was told by Max.

In his email he sent me today , he stated that I would have to go to the DMV and get my 30 day temporary tag , but yet no one ever disclosed that to me until today. Also prior to having my car delivered i ask Max if he can have my car washed and detailed before delivering it to me and he said he would. When I received my car on06-06-17, the car was filthy on the insideand the car was not wash as indicted by Gregory in his email, he meailed on 6-7-17, he writes the car was washed and very shiny and that I claimed the car was dirty. I sent him the photos of the interior of the car and just how dirty it was and he still denied it.

After that time i was looking for a resolution, I told him what I wanted from his company To be given my extended warrarnty, like i was told that comes with the car. I do not have anything in writing stating Max said that, it was very over the telephone twice. But as I explained to Max and Gregory, if If it would have been dislosed the car does not come with a extended warranty I would not have purchase the car. Iinformed them , i have purchase more than 4 mercedes off of the internet sight unseen , but they always came with a extended warranty.

Im only asking for what was told comes with the car, all the other monor issues I can handle, but I was mislead to purchasing the car because i was told it had a extended warranty and the only way i found out was to call Mercedes yesreday.

Purchase Salvage 2016 C-300

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Friday, June 30, 2017

On Monday, took my car to the DMV to have it register and i was told i need to take it to have the breaks and lights inspected first. I took my Salvage 2016 C-300 to a company called Quick Tune and Break. This mechanic shop specializes in breaks and lights inspection. The mechanic ran all the test that was recommended by the DMV and my car failed the breaks test. On the document that was given to me provided a valid explantion for the failed test. It listed damage right front strut and right arm broken and was re-welded. His concern was he did not think the re-welded was going to hold. He went on stating that it was very dangerous to be driving the car, giving its condition.

I took my car to another recomended mechanic for a second opinion that same day and gave him the document I received from the first mechanic and he agreed also, that I would need to have those issues repaired before he can pass me for the break test.

Again well aware that I purchase a salvage vehicle and there will be some minors issues when purchasing a car like this. But these two issues was never disclosed to me and I did ask regarding the repair of the car and  was even sent photos of the damages prior to the car being repaired and tagged for salvage. But even in the photos there was no indications of any damages to the strut  and right spindle armed being repaired and re-welded. Even if i would have hired someone to inspect the car , those issues would have gone undecteded. In order to notice those issues a mechanic would need to put the car on a lift up in the air and remove the tire. The two issues on the side the car was repaired. The damage is not visible just by looking at the tire itself.

Had many conversations with the salesman Max that i purchase the car from , and it was never disclosed that , that area was repaired and some of the componets was re-welded. if you read the lstings on their cars they have posted on Ebay, theres a section thats there that states, their vehicles are repaired per factory specs with OEM parts, well I'm sure mercedes would not have approved of any part being repired by re-wedding it and placing a bent part in its place.

That same day I sent Max a text stating the issues at hand , he was provided photos of the damages parts of the issues along with a copy of the document I received from the mechanic stating the car failed the breaks inspections. He responded back to me the next day via text stating I will not get a response back from him or anyone at the dealership until I pay them 3-4 thousands dollars to remove the first claim I put online regarding their company.

 

Since Ive had this car I have yet to put over 20 miles on this car and now I'm affraid to drive it due to the structural damages and deficiencies. Planning on having the car towed to a mercedes dealership to have the car repaired, which will cost me serveral thousands dollars. I can not get the car register until I get those two issues repaired.
