Statement of Claim
Claimant says:
"ON 1/24/14, I WENT TO F&D SALES TO LOOK AT CARS. I WAS INTERESTED BUT NOT COMMITTED TO BUYING. I LOOKED AT A 2005 FORD FOCUS, AND ASKED FOR A TEST DRIVE ONLY BECAUSE I ASKED FOR IT. I GAVE THEM A $500.00 DEPOSIT AND STATED IN FRONT OF 3 WITNESSES RHAT IF I SAW SOMETHING CLOSER AS I LIVE IN SUFFOLK COUNTY A GREAT DISTANCE AWAY IN LINDENHURST THAT I WAS NOT COMMITTING TO ANYTHING AND IF I SAW SOMETHING CLOSER I WOULD DO THAT INSTEAD. I DID NOT HAVE A VEHICLE AT THAT TIME. AT THAT TIME MY WIFE WOUND UP IN A HOSPITAL FOR OVER A MONTH. I HAD TO LAY OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES FOR A WHEELCHAIR, WALKER AND SHOWER CHAIR. I HAD NOT HEARD FROM F&D SALES. THEY SAID THEY HAD TRIED TO CALL ME BUT HAD NO RECORD OF IT ON MY PHONE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL RIMES AND RECEIVED NO RESPONSE, WHEN I FINALLY SPOKE TO FRANK AT F&D, I REQUESTED ONLY $250.00 BACK. HE SAID HE WOULD TALK TO THE OTHER OWNER DINO AND GET BACK TO ME. TO THIS DAY I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RESPONSE FROM THEM."
