I bought a SALVAGED 2007 Scion Tc on 3-26-11 from a dealership called Auto Sales in Los Angeles. I went to the CHP today because in order for salvaged cars to be registered, they must be inspected first. ( I called in May and was given an appointment in June.) The CHP informed me that the dealership should of never sold me the car because the airbags on the car do not work even being sold AS IS. He states since it was a business, these dealerships must pass the minimum qualifications to sell even salvaged cars and insist i report it. However, the dealership promised me it worked. They even offered me to put the car sold for $4,000 instead of the sale price of $6,500 on the DMV forms. I was pulled over a week ago for paper plates and now i cannot even register my car until something is done with the airbags.
I have contacted this dealership several times and given nothing but the run around. The CHP insist they must fix it, however, i do not want to give them my car after this. I do not trust them and i do not want to not have a car for weeks even months.
Shouold i contact a auto attorney? Business attorney?
