What should have been done here is the wheel should have been replaced this fixing the problem and earning a good review. How ever they choose to re balance the tires which they knew was not going to fix the problem. And for the AS IS warranty it does not apply. This is a service problem. The extra wheel bearing is because they could not tell me weather the both needed to be replace so they did the extra wheel bear. Also this would have changed weather the car would have been sold or not. The price being reduce was because everyone else would hear the noise and walk away. I thought they could fix the problem and I would have been happy. I guess what i learned here is Do not have them work on your car. They will not take care of there mistakes.

Jason, We are very sorry to hear about your experience. The 2006 Buick Lucerne you purchased with over 195,000 miles was sold AS IS with no warranty. Following your purchase and due to your concerns, we did replace an additional wheel bearing and rebalanced the tires at no cost to you. We understand your concern, but in all fairness the vehicle was sold at a reduced price and with no warranty guarantees. Best Regards, Mitch Blackstad
