“Apparently this car was in a serious front end accident that was not repaired properly. I purchased this car from carmax. I was unaware of the previous accident. It was only until I had my windshield replaced after taking a stone to it that many problems were shown to me including parts missing, bent rim, fraudulent representation by car max.”
