WE WERE SOLD A BRAND NEW 2008 MUSTANG GT500KR (SHELBY) JUNE 15, 2014. THIS CAR WAS KEPT AT THE DEALERSHIP IN THE SHOW ROOM AND NEVER SOLD UNTIL NOW.

AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE IT WAS NEVER DISCLOSED TO US THAT THE TIRES WERE OLD AND WE THINK THE SELLING DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND THAT'S WHY THEY REFUNDED US THE TIRE FEE. WE CONTACTED FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY REFUSED TO PUT NEW TIRES ON OUR VEHICLE. *TR
