    Would not recommend Walser when buying a new car. We purchased a "certified" pre owned vehicle from Walser (it only had 11,000 miles) because they boast about their rigorous inspections. We still did our due diligence and asked about accidents AND got the carfax report. We were told it was clean, no accidents, no problems found in inspection. We have since found out, after taking it to a different dealer for a fix, that this car had entirely new front end and all new parts that went with that. The new dealer new this within seconds of walking around the car and popping the hood. Someone at Walser absolutely had to have known about this before selling it to us OR it didn't go through any type of inspection like they claim. After talking to walser about it they will not help us in any way. They will not fix it for us, they will not rectify the situation, they won't even (at the very least) give a no cost loaner car while they fix the many many issues that are directly related to this new front end/replaced parts. It's sketchy and dishonest. Once you drive off the lot there is no more respect or common courtesy.
