Dealer Review:

I found the Burgandy 2003 lincoln town car in an online search. My first step was to order the Carfax report and it showed no accidents or unusual or negative problems, so I was encouraged. I live in Colorado and told him that before I could commit to flying out to look at it I needed to know if there is anything wrong mechanically with the car and does the A/C work and do all the windows work? He said everything works and no issues whatsoever. So I put a deposit down with my debit card over the phone when he assured me I'd get it back if the car didn't pass muster. So I flew out and fell in love with it when I saw it. Aside from a couple things on the exterior, which I considered minor, I was happy with it. The interior was in very good condition for a car of this age and mileage, just like the photos showed. I told him I needed to take it to a mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection and he said OK to that. Before I left the lot I found that both windows on the drivers side were non operational. The trip to the mechanic was 9 miles one way. The brakes were the worst I've ever driven with - totally unsafe actually. The A/C never cooled off, but if it was winter, no problem, it worked as good as the heater! I figured I'd get the mechanics estimate on fixing those issues before I decided what to do, because the engine was very strong and responsive and the transmission showing no problems either. But the mechanic called me out as soon as he got it off the ground and showed me the deal-breaker; the frame is very badly rusted , it looked like swiss cheese. Where it wasn't rusted, it was just gone, also a very, very unsafe situation. Who knows when the frame would fail and when it does someone is probably dead. Without a sound frame it doesn't matter if everything else is perfect (which, of course it wasn't). The engine also had a fair amount of rust on it as well. Needless to say, this car is completely worthless and a total death-trap as well. I guess Todd just has no scruples since he knew it would cost me a fair amount to flyout from Denver And I had specifically asked about any issues. He claimed there were none. I was upset but what could I do? I didn't yell at him because what good would that do anyway? I know some people are just dishonest and inconsiderate and yelling at someone like that probably might only feed his inner self causing him to feel joyful. Lesson learned on my part and I'm thankful I chose to have a mechanic look at it, probably why I am still alive! Several things about Todd in his favor- he did offer to show me other vehicles on the lot and when I said no thanks, nothing else he had appealed to me, he didn't pressure me in any way. And when I told him I needed my deposit back, he complied immediately without further ado. He has a very nice demeanor, and is actually fairly pleasant to be around, but his basic dishonesty pretty much nullifies his good qualities. If you like yourself even just a little bit, avoid this dealership because you might walk away feeling bad about yourself after being there. Fair warning.
