Consumer Description

The dealer sells half million dollar camper Vans but sold me a 1998 GMC Coachmen Savana.He has wrong year on all documents my insurance says! The urgent safety issue to my life and safety to others on national roads is that I CANNOT drive the van/ home at ALL (the delears technician inspected the van QUICKLY and left engine light still on,I said I did NOT want van if they would not find the problem but forced to take van,I called cops. I have mental disability this is my only car that less than 2 months after I bought it,I CANNOT DRIVE this van without DEADLY CONSEQUENCES to me and other drivers/passengers on national/state highways.The carbon monoxide began leaking out immediately after I bought and then I noticed the GAS LEAKING FROM Tailpipe within first month and told state park and Texas DMV said make complaint on computer. I have phone only but now in January 10,2022 It was cold I ran camper and I had videotaped the leak in December 2021 I bought it November 13,2021(Stahman Walmart ing lot,I saw huge spill when I get out of back where I SLEEP and my dog.The carbon monoxide is enough to kill us both but on January 4,2022 in Walmart lot huge spill as open door I stepped in it.I had ran van for 45 minutes I knew a small leak in December, I told DMV and state park they seemed to care because DMV ignored my emails since December but nobody will help in state of Texas.
