Default Stay away from village auto sales

Theres a dealership called Village Auto in Edmonds, WA thats been around forever. I purchased a 1987 Suburban 4x4 from them with the understanding this truck has 96k miles on it. Seemed like a good deal. All the pics looked nice and she said they had a "signed affidavit of actual mileage." Get the truck here and this thing is a moldy rotten worn out peice of crap and I ran a Carfax and it came up to 196,000 miles. Ive gone to the WA Attorney General with this and they didnt respond. The dealership claims they "were very open and honest about the condition of the vehicle and they were not required to provide an odometer reading other than exempt." A lawsuit is about to ensue. Wanted to let everyone know to stay away from this place. Theyll screw you to make a buck.

I agree. Ive tried and tried to get through to them about it and theyre being quite uncooperative. I dont even have a title yet and it was purchased in the beginning of March. This is gonna turn into an ugly lawsuit over a $4000 truck.

It would be prudent to do more homework next time you try and purchase a vehicle out of state. Maybe have it safety checked and inspected. 87' is a long time ago.

1987 wasn't that long ago (for you) youngster. I'm pretty sure you just recently sprouted your first pubic hair
