      Purchased vehicle: 2021 Audi q3 2016 with ***** miles on it. The dealer sold the vehicle for ****** and an additional extended warranty for nearly 3k. Before I sign my contract I requested the mechanic inspect the vehicle for any major mechanicals issues that the vehicle might have, they told me the vehicle was good and I had nothing to worry about. Fast forward, after driving about ***** miles on the vehicle, the engine fails. I went to the shop to get the situation sorted out but they dismissed me.

      (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
      The transaction of the vehicle has nothing to do with the complaint infact I was really happy that I was able to buy my third vehicle from you guys. The complaint is about the way you guys handled the situation after the vehicle failed I repeat my self, I was never informed of any charges of the repairs that got performed to the vehicle I truly believe that all costumer should be informed prior the repair including any charges. I as a costumer should agree to the repairs performed to my vehicle prior the repair including charges!
