“I purchased a 1995 Oldsmobile delta 88 royale lss 4d sedan 6cy/3800 series 2. At seven seas auto 118 maple st. Manchester nh,03103. Paid 1,500 came with a 20-day plate and a state inspection. Now the car has a new alternator and everything passed inspection, according to the dealer. First thing, car was bought on the 8th. My birthday is on the 15th, yet the inspection is good for 07 not 06 like it should be. Second e-brake does not work and regular brakes don't work right, the ABS- brake light was always on. Third within 11 days of owning the car had to buy 3 batteries. …”
