I have recently had a terrible experience buying a "Certified Pre Owned" Volkswagen at my local dealer. Before purchasing the vehicle, I was explained what "CPO" reconditioning entailed, and was assured any mechanical and cosmetic problems the car had would be corrected before delivery. I trusted the word of my sales person, but did not see all the blemishes the vehicle had until the day after delivery as I purchased and picked up my car at night (big mistake).
The problem I am having right now is that the used car manager has thus far refused to provide me with the CPO checklist or inspection form that my car supposidly underwent. Does any kind soul happen to have a Canadian Volkswagen CPO inspection form that they could forward me so I can see what "reconditioning" work my car should have had.
As of right now, the best the dealership has done is offered to install a set of Chinese, off brand tires on my car to replace the weather-cracked Continentals that the car currently has on it (see picture link), that should never have passed a safety in the first place. I thought the whole point of CPO was the fact that they recondition the cars using OEM or factory parts. I am hoping tires fall under this too, but I have no way of proving this without a copy of the check sheet.... Click the link to see the photos of their CPO reconditioning job....
