Car Hoopla

So Eric got a new car and everything was great until two days ago. We went to Target, came back out and it wouldn't start. It got power, but wouldn't turn over. Great. Eric thought maybe it Vapor Locked which isn't really something we can fix, it just happens with heat/humidity. He tries 5 or 6 more times and it doesn't start. We sit there for 5 minutes and he tries again and all of a sudden it started. Great, maybe it just needed to cool down.

We get home and he turns it off and tries to turn it on and once again, nothing. He text one of his friends and told him what was going on and he came over the next day (yesterday) and had no idea what was wrong with it. Eric then thought maybe it was the spark plugs so off to Auto Zone we go. This morning he's taking them off and putting the new ones on when he gets to the last one and the old one breaks off. Um.. it's not suppose to do that. He then looks around and starts to notice a bunch of hardware that is missing and a lot of bolts that are stripped from over tightening and a lot of the stuff that is suppose to be done in the service inspection at the dealership wasn't.

By this time he's just mad that after 5 days of having this car it doesn't start and the previous owner took a bunch of shortcuts and the dealership didn't do what they were suppose to. He called them a little bit ago and told them to come and get it. He's now waiting for the manager to call him back to see what is going to happen.

Now we get to start the car looking processes over again. Lovely.
