What is the name of your state? Texas
Purchased a 2006 Nissan Altima for our daughter last year for transportation to school. The car was in very good shape and had VERY LOW mileage. The dealership advised that the car only had one previous owner, had never been in an accident and only had about 60+ thousand miles on it, which is what we liked most about it. Last week, while our daughter was home for spring break, we had to replace the battery. While doing so, we noticed a sticker on the engine indicating that the engine was not the original and that it was refurbished. It also indicated that it had an extended warranty up to 100,000 miles with it.
Not sure we would have purchased the car if they would have told us about the engine (or at least we would have offered less). Also, we paid a lot of $$ for an extended warranty when it looks like maybe it was already under warranty up to 100,000.
We feel like we were scammed. Is this something that the dealership should have disclosed to us?
Looking for any advice I can get before we contact the dealership about it.
Oh yeah, and the check engine light is on now..
Thanks,
Roger
