I purchased the car in August of 2013 took car to auto repair for rear wheel bearing in the process of getting it fixed the mechanic noticed that the shocks were totally rotted I informed fran from B7B automotive that the shocks were totally rotted and the car was not safe to drive as stated by my mechanic fran's response to us was well you had the car for 11 months and besides you live down the shore which will rot them out my response to him was this is something that was supposed to be check before it was taken off the lot this is a safety hazard. I have the shocks and took pictures in case we have to consult an attorney I think something should be done about this company who sells cars that are not safe.

The driver noticed a loud grinding noise while starting up the vehicle. Apparently the noise was coming from the steering wheel. The driver was able to drive to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic placed the vehicle on a diagnostic machine. The codes were displayed on the computer, then reset. The mechanic informed the driver that the problem was solved. The driver informed the mechanic that this problem has recurred more than once.

Automatic transmission disengaged while driving. Dealer was unable to duplicate or correct the problem. The service dealer manager verified and experienced these conditions and was unable to correct the problem. Two days after the purchase, the van shuttered at low speed, low rpms in reverse, slipped out of gear when attempting to ascend in grade, the check engine light had come on. Other problems that occurred, were as followed: The brake calipers were squealing which may have been due to sticking, the vehicle leaned to the left, and the right sliding door didn't open from the inside switch.
