1-15-2011 we purchased a used vehicle from Essex Motors. We took the vehicle for a short test drive and I mentioned to my son and the salesman that I thought the vehicle was shifting funny. I was assured that due to the temperatures being below 0 that day and the truck had been sitting that this was the reason it was shifting strangely. The vehicle was brought home and my son drove the vehicle daily. I finally got the opportunity to drive the vehicle and again noticed that the vehicle was not shifting properly. I took the vehicle to (2) local longmont transmission companies. The transmission needs to be rebuilt $2900.00 dollars. I called the dealership and they said well we will see what we can do for you as a repeat customer. I took the vehicle down they took if out for a drive and agreed there was an issue. In the mean time I took (2) other auto's from Essex motors to a local mechanic and had them checked out thinking I would possibly trade the auto we purchased for something else. First vehicle needed about $2500.00 in work the second was well over $1000.00 we decided we will fix the original vehicle purchased and Essex will not see our faces ever again even as a repeat customer they were not willing to assist us with the expense of the transmission repair. All I can say is Buyer BeWare do not buy an auto from this dealership without having a mechanic doing a thorough inspection.\r
