I purchased a vehicle from ****** ******/Five Star Dealers, **** ****** **** *** ****** ** *** ***. The purchase price was $8495.00 less our trade in of $750.00, with a subtotal of $7745.00, plus licensing fee of $40.00, $100.00 gasoline. A deposit of $100.00 was paid on November 16th, 2022, with the vehicle to be ready in “a couple of days”. The vehicle was finally ready on November 28th. I was not supplied with a safety certificate, although I was told a safety was done (copy of safety requested twice, but nothing yet). Problems with the car started the day after purchase, needing a catalytic converter, making the car undrivable. After sending a registered letter to ****** ******/Five Star Dealers on January 6th, 2023, on the advice of the Ontario Motor Vehicle Council (OMVIC), I received a call saying that they had the catalytic converter. The car drove fine for short time after new catalytic converter installed and then started with driving issues again. At this point, I had the car towed to my mechanic, Witlox Automotive. I was informed that this car should never have passed a safety as it was structurally unsafe. It looked as if the attempted rocker repair was more of a cover up, and that there was no new catalytic converter. I have attached all documents pertaining to the purchase and repair issues with this vehicle. We were informed that the “lemon law” was only good for the 1st 30 days, all of which we were waiting on the catalytic converter, being told it was ordered and hadn’t come in yet. We would like to get a refund on the car and we’re wondering if you would be able to offer advice/help us to achieve that.
