NHTSA Complaint #10716553 — 2014 CHEVROLET SILVERADO

THE ABOVE STATED VEHICLE WAS SOLD TO ME IN DEC. 2014, AND I WAS ALLOWED TO LEAVE WITH THE VEHICLE WITHOUT KNOWING THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER RECALL. (SALE AND DELIVERY ON AN UNREMEDIED RECALLED VEHICLE). THE RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE HAD BEEN ISSUED JUNE 26, 2014. WHEN I ASKED THE SALESMAN ABOUT THIS RECALL, HE STATED TO ME HE HAD CKECKED WITH HIS SALESMANAGER AND THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING WITH THE NTHSA DATABASE AND FOUND THE RECALL, I HAD IT FIXED ON MAY 5, 2015. I ASKED THE SALESMAN WHY MY VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN FIXED DURING THE 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE SELL TO ME, HIS REPLY WAS THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN SOLD IN JULY OF 2014 AND THAT THE BUYER HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 7 DAYS AND RETURNED IT FOR LACK OF FUNDS. THAT MEANS THEY SOLD THIS VEHICLE TWICE WHILE THE RECALL WAS UNREMEDIED.
