NHTSA Complaint #11297137 — 2003 HONDA PILOT

I FOUND THIS CAR AD ON FACEBOOK AFTER TEST DRIVING I DECIDED TO PURCHASE IT FOR3,000 THEY ORIGINAL ASKING PRICE WAS $3,400 FOR THE HONDA PILOT WITH 131,000 MILES. I OFFER THEM $2,900 AND MET AT 3,000. WHEN I CAME BACK TO MAKE THE PURCHASE THE PINK SLIP WAS ALREADY FILLED OUT. I DIDN'T THINK OF IT. AFTER GOING TO THE DMV TO START TO THE REGISTRATION OF VEHICLE I HAD TO GO GET A SMOG INSPECTION. THATS WHEN THE CAR DID NOT PASS AND THEY INFORM ME THAT CAR BATTERY WAS EITHER DISCONNECTED OR THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING FOR AWHILE. SO I DECIDED TO DRIVE THE CAR ENOUGH SO THE COMPUTER CAN GENERATE SOME DATA. TODAY I DECIDED TO GET A CARFAX REPORT AND THE ODOMETER LAST REPORTED WAS WAY ABOVE WHAT WAS PRESENTED TO ME. THEY ADVERTISE THE CAR AT 131K AND THE ODOMETER ALSO READ 131K. SINCE I FOUND THIS AD ON FACEBOOK, I NOTICED THEY HAD DELETED THE AD AND BLOCK ME. I REALIZED THEY BLOCK ME BY SEARCHING THE PROFILE OF WHOM SOLD ME THE VEHICLE. THEN I USED SOMEONE ELSE PROFILE AND WAS ABLE TO SEE THEIR PROFILE. THE CAR WAS LOCATED IN 13657 VAN NUYS BLVD PACOIMA CA IN A CITY STREET.
