Gonzales v Los Compadres Auto Sales

A USED 2010 GMC ACADIA THAT COULD NOT BE FIXED.

In February 2018 our client purchased a used 2010 GMC Acadia from Los Compadres Auto Sales in Riverside. Our client told the dealership she knew nothing about cars and was looking for a safe vehicle for transporting her 3 children. When test driving the 2010 GMC Acadia she told the dealership she felt a hesitation in the shifting. Our client alleges she was told by both the owner of Los Compadres and the sales person that there was nothing wrong with the GMC and that if anything went wrong, it would be promptly and properly repaired. Shortly after purchasing the Acadia and while on the freeway and driving her children to school, our client experienced acceleration problems with the Vehicle requiring her to pull off to the side of the road. Our client took the GMC Acadia in for repair Los Compadres Auto Sales and was told it would be fixed. She was also told that she needed to sign a new sales contract which would lower her loan payments. (It did not. It actually raised her payments.) The transmission was not repaired at all and our client alleged that additional defects appeared, on her 2010 GMC Acadia, such as the check engine light coming on. To make a long story short our client alleges she has had the SUV in for repairs over 10 times (and in violation of California law) seldom received repair paperwork). After coming to the law firm of Rosner, Barry & Babbitt, additional problems with the sale by Los Compadres Auto Sales were uncovered, such as an undisclosed deferred down payment. Additionally, as a Buy-Here-Pay-Here dealer, Los Compadres did not provide the required warranty or fair market value information to our client. The Auto Fraud Legal Center has filed a lawsuit to have Los Compadres return our client’s money, pay off her loan, and pay her attorney’s fees.

If you believe Los Compadres Auto Sales, or any other dealership has misled you about the mechanical condition or body condition of a vehicle you purchased or failed to properly disclose your deferred down payment, please contact leonard@rbblawgroup.com.

Awesome!! Lilia Guizar got us out of a nightmare we were in with with a non operating vehicle. I was turned down by other firms after discussing my case. Lily took time to hear me out and was thorough with the information I provided her about my complaint. We are completely satisfied with our outcome!

Lilia Guizar was my attorney in a recent fraud case and I am so impressed with the outcome. The process was quick and easy. We even countered the first offer to get what was fair and I’m happy to say that the car was picked up today, I am free of that burden and I feel validated for all the time and money wasted trusting a dealership that took advantage of me. Widowed military wife and mother. That dealership thought I just give up. I’ve read that these cases can take a year or two to settle, I remember when speaking with Lilia and she said, ”I’d like to wrap this up by the end of the month,” and she absolutely did. Car was picked up Thursday, by Friday I received tracking from FedEx for the settlement check. That’s pretty incredible for this kind of litigious case. I read some of these other reviews and I have to say, once they take the case, don’t pester them, let them do their job. They always communicated when necessary but I didn’t need someone to hold my hand through the process. She was an aggressive attorney. Recommend her 100%!

Had a Jeep with several issues. Called Auto Fraud Legal Center and they were able to help me out. They had the dealership buy back my vehicle and give me my money back + extra. They are an amazing team, especially Lilia Guizar, she was with me from the beginning all the way to the end. She would call me and text me whenever there were any updates, she guided us through the process and helped us make the best decisions. I couldn’t have asked for a better result, thanks to Lilia and the rest of the team. In total, it took about 4 months to resolve my case, which was fast. Again, thank you Lilia and everyone at Auto Fraud Legal Center, you guys are the best!
