51 STATE LT AUTO SALES Sold A Lemon! BRUNSWICK, Georgia

13th of Jun, 2011 by User470026

I purchased a saturn SL2 at the dealership 51states in brunswick ga from a man name Glenn on May 21, 2011. He told me I was getting a great car it had brand new tires he had just purchased and the car was mechanically sound. I drove the car and the ck engine light was on so I stop at Advance Auto and got a guy to put on machine and he said nothing came up. I went back to the dealership and purchased the car. The car was listed on the craiglist with 170000 and when I realized it was wrong it had 180000 on the mileage. I look on my bill of sale and it said mileage exempt. ?? I had only driven the car maybe 200 miles and the ck engine light came on and when i got home i ck the oil and it was 2 1/2 quarts low. I put the oil in there on May 28,2011. 1 week after I purchased the car. Then I had to put another 1 quart in there on June 10,2011. I have only driven the car not even 600 miles. The engine is burning oil is what I had a mechanic tell me. He told me to take the car back. I tried and they said to take them to court. I have contacted the BBB about this matter and as of today June 14,2011 I haven't heard nothing from them. I want all my money back I paid for this car $2850.00. They have sold me a lemon and this is wrong with the ecomony like it is.

I purchased an Alero from 51 State Auto Sales in Brunswich, GA and my engine went out in 2 weeks. Is there nothing you can do to get your money back. Please help.

I purchased a Cadillac Deville from there. I don't remember the guy name but he told me the car was in excellent shape which was a lie. A couple of days after I got it I realized something was wrong with the staibilility because the car would all of the sudden go the to right when drive it which was scary. The water pump had a leak and was causing the car to overheat. The water pump is very hard to fix because its at the bottom of the engine. It was over $1500 to repair. To top that off he done something so the A/C would work a little while then it went out. I talked to him and he told me that he would buy the car back for $500 less than what I paid for it. I just kept it. They are a rip off and should be closed down.
