Car buyer sees spots after purchase
On Nov. 7, I purchased a new Mitsubishi Eclipse from Crown Mitsubishi in St. Petersburg for a no-haggle price of $20,000. It was on a Sunday, and I was told no detail people were at the dealership. I was given a carwash ticket for a local carwash. On Monday, after work and after it was dark, I went to the carwash. On Tuesday, I noticed hard, yellow, crusty spots, like raindrops, over the entire surface of the car, including the windows.
