On 5/21/2022 I purchased a truck from Hermanos Auto Sales from salesmand Mark C********r who gave me the intial purchase agreement of $3500.00 but later after paying my money and the company failing to submit licensing documentation I was given a second purchase agreement and was to told I never paid for the vehicle. The truck was checked off sold as is, Mark (salesman) called an insurance company and put 90 days of insurance on it. which was supposed to fix all major issues with the truck as I was purchasing to exepite freight. He was going to give my partner and I the paperwork the following Saturday when we picked up the truck. I paid $3K by credit card and gave them 500 CASH the same day. When I returned back on Saturday to pick up the truck I was told it was not ready. They were supposed to put the fuse cover back in under the dash and change the steering column out. It was hanging on so you couldn't see what gear it was in. Neither had been done when I returned, and the ignition switch locked up. He changed the ignition switch so the truck would start and left the other two things for me to come back and get fixed later. Which never happened. I went back in June to to ask why he was ignoring my phone calls. I had left message after message because my partner and I had put in 3500 to 4000 in major parts already and I needed to file them with the insurance company. I had been a couple times to the BMV to get my tags and registration but was denied because mark had not filed paperwork. I had to pay him another 500 cash cause it for some reason had to be cash. My partner and I gave him the money for the taxes of the truck that day. I should have received my title in two weeks but I did now. I tried calling him but the office never returned any of my calls and Mark's phone was shut off. After returning again to see why I have not received the title and still could not get my tags and registration. In the meantime I was getting tickets because of different things the truck, and constantly pouring money into truck for major repairs. I had head work and brake systems replaced. Major repairs we wanted to file to the insurance company but because he failed to give the paperwork to me so I couldn't call myself and file them. When we walked in to talk to Mark he was unavailable that day and the owner was there. We have never dealt with him before. That day everything mark had said was a lie. There was no insurance company to pay those major repairs, my two thousand dollars’ worth of tickets he was not paying anymore because he failed to give my BMV proper paperwork. We left I never gave the man any more money .I went back to him one last time to ask for my title money for more than 6000 in repairs still has no tag or registration had been forced by the Illinois state police to buy one for six hundred to pass thru their state the Latino wrote a fake contract told me I owe over 8000 for my truck was not giving me my money for repairs, tickets, and put a lean on the title. My truck had been grounded by ******* State Police because their truck had no plates registration or tags even though two or three days before that Illinois forced me to buy one. It wasn't showing in the system yet. So, I had to take it to the loves truck stop. I asked the manager if it could sit a couple weeks she said yes. I told them the tags and registration should be in by then. A week or little over a week later a male Manager had my truck towed. I called the Latino guy told him her needed to pay for my truck. I didn't even know it had got towed and it was his fault I couldn't get the tags sooner. They wanted almost 1000 dollars. . I didn't have enough money. He left my vehicle. It got crushed. I had to pay 150 cash to get a few of my belongings out of it... Like the original the truck contact. I failed to grab the folder for all the repairs. It'was crushed with my truck. I want compound interest daily on the time the truck was grounded till I went back to work my money in repairs back money for tickets and the 4000 for the truck I never got pr paperwork onInitial Complaint

Bought a truck through Hermanos Auto Sales salesman was **** and when I bought this truck I was told I was paying for a 4-year warranty if anything went wrong with the motor it was covered. One month later I have a problem out of the motor and the owner ***** said I have no warranty the only reason I bought this truck was because of the 4-year warranty. And I was charged a thousand more than I agreed to paying. If these people do this to me then they are doing it to everyone. I took the owner a receipt of how much it will cost. And he didn't care. He already got his money and told me to leave. They scammed me by letting me take the truck home the same day before I got any paper work . Said it was contact delivery.. I need help fixing this issue. All they gave me on the warranty was the warranty booklet. This is not right!
