On Monday April 7 I stopped to look at a Jeep on the lot at Automaxx on Rt 7 between Marietta and Reno, OH. I test drove the jeep, which was leaking oil and decided not to purchase it. I asked the finance manager how much they would give me for my car, and he said 10-11,000 dollars. He said he would have to talk to his manager and see exactly how much.
On Tuesday April 8, I stopped to see how much they would give me for my car, but both Rodneys were gone so no one could tell me.
On Wednesday, April 9, I stopped to see how much they would give me for my car and was told 10,000. I saw the Toyota sitting there and asked about it, he said it was 5995, I said thats too much so Rodney came down to 4995. I felt nervous about driving the truck in traffic since it had been about 15 years since I drove a standard, so the heavier Rodney drove me just down to the gas station in Reno and back, and while we were going the gear raked when he was trying to put it in 4th gear. He said he guessed he wasnt good at driving a standard either.
Back at the car lot, we discussed the frame being cracked and how they had fixed that, he said they put new shocks on it and fixed everything, he said he had 700-1000 in fixing the toyota.He said they had put a heavy undercoating under the truck. He said it had not been detailed yet and I said I would clean it up myself, and he said he would knock 150 off if I did the detailing myself, that brought the price down to 4750.
I said I would like to sleep on this and would he hold the deal open for me until the next day. He said well, I dont know, there are others wanting this truck, so if you want it you'd better take it. So I said how long do I have to decide? He said only until 730 that night. They all kept talking to me about how my car would probably not sell fast and that they had several people in line for the truck, so after about 10 minutes of talking to me, I finally said ok. Then Rodney told me that in order to save on the taxes, he would put down on paper that I paid 2750 for the toyota and he paid me 8000 for my 2005 Mercury Montego Premier. The papers were drawn up that way.
While I was signing the papers, I told the finance manager that I thought I was making a mistake, and he said well, Ive already got the papers drawn up and I felt guilty so I signed them. I felt very pressured at that point.
When I left the lot at about 6:20 PM and started home, I got on 77 north and got up to speed, and right away noticed that the front wheel on the drivers side was shimmying a little, when I got home and got out of the truck, I smelled gas. I came into the house and looked at the clock and it was 7PM (under 45 minutes later, but not enough time before they closed to return the truck). I called immediately and told them I didnt want the truck, that it has a shimmy in the drivers side wheel, and I was having trouble with the standard transmission, but they said it was sour grapes and that they would not take the truck back. When I went to work the next morning, I noticed that it was getting harder to get the truck to go into 4th gear, it would rake and I had to shift directly from 3rd to 5th. The dash only has half its lights, and it has parking lights out on the passengers side. The cigarette lighter doesnt work, so you cannot charge your cell phone in the truck. I took off work an hour and went to the car lot and spoke to Rodney who said it is too late, I already signed the papers and they were already on their way to be processed. I asked them to stop the deal and they would not. I told him at that point all the other problems I was having with the truck.
And then I found the gas leak around the seam of the gas tank. I have used 70.00 worth of gas just driving 300 miles. And it is leaking oil.
The paperwork they gave me after I signed the papers says local trade on one paper and that it was bought at the auction on another. It also says the retail value of the Toyota according to BlueBook is only 3900 and thats assuming it is in excellent condition. So 2750 was closer to what this truck is worth, and 8000 is truly what they gave me for my car. Retail on my car is almost 18,000. They lied to me about the condition of the truck, and about how much they were giving me for my car. Now I am wondering what else is covered up by the undercoating.
I stopped Friday night April 11 for the check for 4780, the difference minus all the fees they charge, and went to the bank to cash it, and thats when I noticed the back of the check says by endorsing this check you release the title, and I decided not to cash it.
What I would like is for them to return my car to me and I will return the truck and the check to them. They have not sold the car yet, and I have not cashed the check.

Do I have any recourse other than them fixing the problems with the truck? I want out of this contract, and told them so within an hour of signing the papers.
