Consumer Description

11/24/2021 buy 2018 GMC Terrain, before leaving the dealership I told the seller that the engine light was on he said it was because they removed the alarm which I didn’t want to buy and the light was going to be off later and told me to take the car to service on Monday 11/29 so my husband took the car they repair a detail on the handle door and he said the engine light it’s off so we tough what he said about the alarma, we trust the seller but on 12/26/2021 I left California to Texas, I was about 4 and a half hours away the car began to lose speed and a very strange noise was heard, I stepped on the accelerator and did not raise speed, I had to step aside the freeway and the car turn on but It did not go forward or backward and NO warning light was on dashboard, nothin ! The car broke down in Arizona in the middle of nowhere, it’s was freezing and almost got hit by a semi truck, it was a very frustrated experience.
