What clients say about Highway 5 Auto Sales Llc in Hartford (IA)
I traded my 2012 car in for one of their 1971 cars. We sent pictures which SHOWS the paint job flaws as it's peeling in a few places otherwise in PERFECT condition all around. We asked, are you still interested? He said YES. It has a clean & clear title & under 85,000 miles. It has a bunch of specs it comes with & the original window sticker. A mechanically PERFECT car! I have SCREEN shots of the conversation. The owner now claims roughly 2 HOURS after we left the lot that we scammed him. We asked the guy he had show up for him BEFORE we even walked over (& drove onto) the car lot, would you like to come & look at the car & test drive it before we start talking to make sure you truly are wanting this vehicle. He said no. 5 more times we tried to get him to look at it & he refused stating no boss said do this so lets go. He had plenty of chances while charging the battery to the car we were there to get but didn't bother to come near the car. Even while we took the plates off, he walked over by it to grab something but didn't pay the car any attention. He claims we spray painted the car which I have PICTURES that prove it has NEVER been spray painted! He contacted us demanding we return HIS vehicle & stated we were 100% dishonest. Nothing we told him or showed him was a lie. This car is worth the $16,000 as said, we have picture proof of value by Kelley Blue Book themselves as I had it checked to see what it is worth. They got a $16,000 for a $10,000 car. They made odd with the better deal. Do NOT go to them. The listing they had for this car is NO where near what is ture about it. We had our mechanic look it over it's missing parts! It can NOT be used for heat or air! It's doesn't have them in it for these to work. It says the interior is great, yet BOTH doors on the inside need FULLY replaced. So who scammed who? They are terrible people to deal with, disrespectful, & liars! We are keeping this car as we wanted a project car & oh boy howdy is it ever. It barely made it to the gas station across the street as it was BONE DRY - took $115 to fill it, when you'd think it'd have maybe 1/4 in it go go anywhere. I do NOT reccommend anyone come here. They have a 1956 chevy listed for $20,000 yet the photos were edited to make it look nicer than it really is, they car in person is trash & is FULL of scratches unlike the photos online! BE WARY & WARNED if you look at their lot! Nothing is as they claim! This SOB just said on FB before blocking me that I NEVER sent any car pictures. I posted on HIS account showing the peoof of his lies.... & he blocked me so he can look like a saint! Do NOT buy from this scammer!!!!! He just hid my review so no one can see it. I.will blast this on fb!
