I purchased a car from elite motors on 07/02/15, I gave them a $2,000 down payment . the car was selling for $4,995, I was to make 48 car payments at $112.98 bi-weekly or $226.56 a month. A week after purchasing the car the car refused to start, the A.C did not work and the passenger side window did not work, I contacted elite about the AC, which I was given the runaround, after 2months of not getting any help from them I just added some freeon for the AC. I once again contacted them 3 days after purchasing this car about the passenger side window not going down, after 2 months of back and forth and runaround they finally found their mechanic the window was fixed. I contacted elite motors immediately after the car refusing to start, I thought it might need a new car battery so I went & purchase a car battery--nothing was wrong with the battery, the next day, the car just refused to start again, after contacting elite motors I was told to bring the vehicle to their mechanic which I thought was stupid seeing as how this car couldn't be moved. The car has only been driven 3 times since I purchased it because it wouldn't start. On 10/17/15 I went to elite motors dealership to make my monthly car payment of $226.56 plus $50 late fees, I was never told about the car being repossessed, until 11/03/15 my grandmother contacted me saying that the car is missing, I called elite and was then informed that they repossessed the car due to delinquent payments, I have ALL of my receipts where it clearly shows I was NOT delinquent on payments because I was getting charged a $50 late fees and they accepted my money, I was NEVER told that I couldn't be late on payments at all, it clearly states on the bill of sales that I would be charge a $50 late fee, which I pay with every car payment. I just sent my car payment in the form of money order to elite motors and they took the car. Granted my payments may have been late-- no later then a week late. I was never told that this wasn't acceptable or the car is in repossessions. I explained to the lady over the phone that I was just down at elite motors and I was told everything is caught up, she then says to me if I want the car back I will have to give them $4,000, there is absolutely nowhere in the contract that stats that. I was never told about that. Now they have their lemon, my $2,000 down payment and my year of car payments. They sold me a pretty lemon and scammed me out of my hard earned money. I'm in the process of contacting the ftc as well as help me Howard and to look into what my legal options are. Elite motors has my address my phone number and they didn't contact me about anything. Then the lady started getting rude with my wife because my wife was asking where on the sales contract does it states that I would have to pay elite $4,000 in order to get back the car?she became rude and belligerent. DO NOT PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM ELITE MOTORS. They're all over the Internet about their shady business and their lemon cars. read more
