Sold me a lemon! I bought my daughter a used Volvo in February to be her first car. She had her permit and would be taking the driving test after getting the car. After signing the As/Is form I drove the car home on the 605 freeway and it felt wobbly. My other daughter has the exact same car, so I know how it should feel. Also, when my daughter was out practicing her driving before taking her test, we noticed the car would completely shift by just driving over street reflectors. After having the car for two weeks, I decided to take the car in to have the oil changed. When the mechanic called me in to pick up the car, he told me there were puddles of oil on the engine!!! This car was sold in an ad that said it was in perfect mechanical order. I took the car to my regular mechanic and he was shocked. There was oil everywhere!!! He also noticed that someone had put silicone over the solenoid in order to cover for the fact that there was oil leaking. He said he would start by replacing the solenoid and valve to see if that would stop the profuse oil leakage. It didn't!!! A week later the air-conditioning belt just slipped off and dragged 4 feet behind the car all the way from the engine compartment. The timing belt was saturated with oil and so were the spark plugs. Those were replaced, as well as more valves. Hoping after spending all that money to get those repairs done that we would finally have a car for my daughter to drive, the car blows a head gasket!!! In addition, my mechanic told me the front wheels were a turn and a half away from falling off. It is so sad that someone could sell a car to a brand new driver that would put her in so much danger! Zach also didn't send the two hubcaps he promised to send that were not on the car when we purchased it, Presently, the car sits at the shop torn apart after spending a couple thousand in repairs and will cost me at least $3000 more to repair. At this point, the car may very well end up in the junk yard with thousands of dollars thrown away and a girl who just graduated from high school having no car to drive herself to and from her college classes that start next month. It is a sad world we live in where people profit by swindling young people out of money. read more
