Claimant says:
"On June 30, 2014 we purchased a 1946 Olds from Country Classic cars after seeing it on their online website. It was advertised as good glass, (was full of water when delivered) seals on windows bad. dependable, runs and drives strong. The Friday after it was delivered to our door we overheated and broke down 20 miles out of town. Had to be towed. also would not start and was full of water when delivered. Was towed for 200.00 to a shop in Borger,Texas and has been there since. Fuel line replaced, carburetor replaced. Leak in radiator and radiator too small for this cadillac engine. Radiator needs replaced. Welding on motor mounts is poor, needs redone. Transmission leaking at seal. Now this is from a car that was clearly advertised as DEPENDABLE, RUNS AND DRIVES STRONG. 11,000.00 FOR 20 MILES. With the towing and the carburetor and the fuel line, we have almost 800.00 additional dollars in the car and still not driveable. This was sold to us under failure to disclose facts and false advertisement. This was part of our life savings and we were scammed. The salesman, Doug, at Country Classic told us the calipers needed cleaning and the gas tank cleaned. That was all that was wrong. The car does not even have calipers. Jim Newman PS we also paid 825.00 to get it delivered."

    I have the misfortune of purchasing a car from them before seeing these reviews. I am out $7,149.00. I have filed a complaint with the Illinois State Attorney General they have opened a case and have informed me they are investigating my claim and are aware of past claims. I am doubtful any monies can be recouped as that would take civil action but there may be criminal or legal action the state can take against them that would end their deceptive & dishonest business practices. I was informed by the Attorney General’s office every claim helps to substantiate all others and all complaints are active for 5 years and all past complaints are reviewable. If you would like to help prevent others from being victimized by this dealership you can file your story online, it takes less than 5 minutes. https://ccformsubmission.ilattorneygeneral.net/CC1.aspx
