      On October 18th, 2023 I purchased a 2022 ****** frontier pro 4x the sales person educated me that I have *** insurance in the case I ever met in an accident the *** will pay out the remaining balance, however; I got in a accident a few months later now the *** insurance ppl tell me the sales person whom sold me *** insurance gave me under false pretense and that they will not cover the balance owing on the vehicle and when I tried to contact the sales person he doesn't answer my call anymore he doesn't reply to my emails. I am disgruntled and upset that car city and their employees just de-fraud me out of *** insurance and took my money

      I was attempting to buy a vehicle. We agreed on a delivery date/down payment date to be January 12. After contacting the sales person stating that I could not afford the vehicle/insurance until February, he agreed for delivery/payment in February. The insurance coverage that I submitted is VOID b/c I couldn't afford the coverage until February. The salesperson did not inform the bank the vehicle was not insured and the first payment came out of my account today. In speaking with him, he stated that he hasn't been to work and someone was "SUPPOSED" to contact me stating the payments were still going to be coming out... even though the vehicle is NOT insured and was not to be delivered until February.

      Car city set me up with a vehicle financed through access credit financing for $40000 paying 26.9% interest on this car that sells for less then $15000. Upon receiving the vehicle a 2015 Ford Escape with 169000 kms on it I discovered that the car had an engine light on, as well as the rear back up camera is intermittently not working. As well as only receiving a 1/4 tank of gas with the car. I reached out to the sales agent and he informed me that they do not supply a full tank of gas with a car purchase and that they would only fix the engine light issue. I want the car to be in good running condition when purchased not having parts that are not working. I want to be reimbursed for my time and for the money I've paid out so far. And I want a vehicle in good running condition.
