Ramiro mayorga owner of ideal autos sold me this car knowing he had a mechanic reset the mileage and break indicators and airbag indicators. The airbags are none functional I complained to the BBB but there was nothing they would do. He wouldn't take the car back & return my money. There are many defects.10 minutes after we made a deal I gave him the check. I started to drive and the rims and tires were bad. The steering was even worse. The steering is not there it takes about 50 lbs. Of muscle to turn it the steering wheel. The were dented so where the car drives it bumps really bad. I tried to give the car back within the same 10 minutes and get back the bank check.. he would not return it.I left the car at his business for 3 days but he would not take it. He threatened me with the tow & police. He's a whole scammer. I did not and do not have money to hire a attorney & this has been a huge loss. The car is still in the same position at my residence since I brought it here. I maintain its oils & keep it running. I don't and will not drive it. I was not aware how bad the condition was until I could not return it. I had diagnostics ran on it and it showed where the warning lights & information were reset.I felt unsafe in the car I have not and do not drive it anywhere. Ramiro mayorga has done this people before he needs to be stopped. It happened 2759 delk road marietta, ga with scumbag owner & salesman ramiro mayorga.
