THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC. THE PURCHASE DATE WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 11,000.
WE BOUGHT A 2006 BAJA IN EARLY OCTOBER FOR CASH. THIS CAR HAD 157 MILES WHEN WE LEFT THE BILL MCBRIDE DEALER SHIP IN PLATTSBURGH, NY. WE HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR PULLING TO THE RIGHT SINCE THE BEGINNING. WE HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR BACK 4 TIMES TO HAVE IT FIXED. THEY HAVE DONE 3 ALIGNMENTS, ROTATED THE TIRES 2 TIMES AND REPLACED 1 TIRE. THIS VEHICLE STILL PULLS TO THE RIGHT. ON 3RD ALIGNMENT THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO PRODUCE A RECEIPT FOR THE ALIGNMENT AND STATED THE REASON WAS THERE WAS NO CHARGE FOR THE ALIGNMENT. ALL RECEIPTS STATE VEHICLE PULLS TO RIGHT. DEALERSHIP CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND WE ARE NOT SURE WHAT OUR NEXT STEP SHOULD BE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. *NM
