Recently purchased a 'like new condition Audi' from Amoskeag Auto Sales. First of all was the old bait and switch tactic, telling me vehicle at a price we already negotiated upon would have to go up around 500+ dollars due to a more lucrative offer. This is on the while I am driving the 3+hours trip to come get the car, sent via a text message non the less. Secondly, finally arrive at the shop. Looks fairly legitimate. The car comes out and I inspected the car quickly because he happened to be in a rush. Took the car on the highway for less than 3 minutes, not even time to actually hear what was wrong until after I took the car home. He began by saying it had many new parts, but had no receipts to prove it, yet was a mechanic so any reasonable person would assume these statements would not be misleading in nature. Thirdly, after I asked about a few blemishes on the car he said nothing and said he could get them for me for no extra cost as he never disclosed this information when I asked what the cars condition is in, only he said EXCELLENT. The check engine light was on "" due to the secondary air system, we tested it, thats all you need and you''ll be good to go"". Also proceeded to show me the engine fault codes on a ""cheap reader"" than couldn't explain what exactly was wrong, just a fault code. And the assured me that due to the air-pump, it set off multiple codes, which I found out later that it was a fraudulent statement due to the fact he as a technician could have told me the other codes had nothing to do with that particular part. Leading to about 2500+ fees to put back on the road and get inspected. Also had 2 flat tires in less than two weeks because they were so worn down. Also no jack could be found in the car. Currently handling withBBB in this matter as it is blatant misstatement to a reasonable person, including knowingly selling a faulty car that does not pass any safety or emission standards. Please BUYER BE WARE IF LOOKING TO DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY. You would think an AUDI technician would now more than anyone what the actually needed and what he actually told me varied a great great deal.
Pros: None
Cons: Inconvenience / fraud / misstatements
