Business ProfileforCorwin Toyota of Bellevue

Dear BBB, I am writing to file a complaint about Corwin Toyota for them selling me a vehicle with a serious mechanical issue. I purchased a 2014 Nissan Titan from them on June 14th. The next morning I noticed a fluid leak under the front right bumper. I assumed it was a/c condensation due to the temperatures, but after it did not dry on the 3rd day, I checked and noticed it had an oily feel. I went back the dealership and learned that it needed a new radiator, $500 cost, which was only this low because I had purchased a warranty. $500 is my deductible. When I purchased the truck, I told them that I was getting it because I had a non-verbal special needs child who liked red trucks, but that I had a limited budget because of his needs...so I was looking for something not too expensive, but would be decently reliable. They told me the truck was in very good condition and that nothing significant was showing on the Carfax report, which I had. So, I was shocked to see the fluid leak the next day and then learn that I would have to pay $500 to get it fixed. I understand buying as is, but a major mechanical issue not being identified and the fault showing only 12 hours after purchase should not be condoned. Either Corwin Toyota deliberately had a car on their lot with a known significant mechanical issue that was not documented, or their mechanics failed to notice it during their inspection. In either case, they told me the truck was in very good condition when it was not and sold a faulty vehicle.
