International Motor Productions - Beware! Junk cars!

Range Rover - Complaint

CARROLLTON, TEXAS -- These people are a bunch of con artist who are money hungry scammers! All of their cars are jjunk and lemons! They purchase these vehicles from the auctions And only do certain repairs so you can drive it off lot only to find later out it's a piece of crap! I bought a Range Rover from them in November 2012 And was convinced to buy the gap insurance (Which I later found out my vehicle wasn't even qualify to purchase this insurance But they sold it to me anyway)!

Not even 3 days later the car completely locks on me and will not start!! I later found out the alternator was bad and had to replace it for $1800! I tried to talk to Bridget to see if there was a way they could split repairs or even have me return the car and exchange it for something else! She proceeded to curse me out and tell me that I was an idiot for paying $1800 for the repair Although she was the one who referred me to this mechanic !!!

Sure enough After getting the alternator fixed, I found out that there are oil leaks on the car and that's another thousand dollars! In a matter of 4 months, I have managed to spend over $7000 in repairs on this vehicle!!! This was the biggest mistake that I have ever done in my entire life! And these people at international motor productions are scam and they sell a bunch of junk!

Please do not make the same mistake I did do not buy from these people!!! Save yourself the agony and go to some professionals!!

While some reviews are good about this place (not here, but on other sites), there are a lot of people, like yourself, who were pretty dissatisfied with them. Used car companies like this can be tricky to shop at since they may get some of their vehicles (with a variety of possible problems) at auction. At the very least, your warning is a good cautionary statement for anyone considering buying a vehicle here. Thanks!

"splitting repairs" is in most all cases not going to happen with a used car purchase. Third party warranties need to be checked very carefully to see what they do and don't cover.

Buying a nice used car needs to be done carefully. My first such experience yielded a car with a warped head, only discovered months later. I resolved then to be a lot more careful in the future. I recently bought a late model used car with a manufacturer certified pre-owned warranty, which I highly recommend. It gave me piece of mind.

Your review should be helpful to others - I am afraid you got burned pretty badly.
