disability to not question what the salesman said. I have particular safety features that I needed , that were promised , and were not on the car they sold me. 2 Days Later after trying to find these features, i called them back asking to return the car and get my old car back. I was told all sales are final and if I felt there was a senior abuse problem I would be talking to their attorney. I waited 2 weeks and have now had to trade the car they sold me at a significant loss.
