I brought a car from extreme motorcars on 08/05/2008. I later found that after leaving the dealership with the car and it rained the car leaks. I took the car to a mechanic and also found out the car had no air bag. I contacted the dealer and no response was made on their part. I complained with the local better business bureau and the dealer response was the car was brought as is. Isn't it illegal to sell a car without an airbag?
