              Went to purchase a certified pre owned Hyundai Elantra 2023. The dealer had the car serviced before my arrival and took down images on their website of the vehicle. Halfway home I realized they had, I believe intentionally not mentioned a crack on the dashboard that was very noticeable. After telling them what happened they refused to help and stated they simply missed it. This is hard to believe as the car was serviced and they removed images from the website once our deal was struck. I've called the business several times and they refused to contact me back, only replying to a google review in which they stated they had been in contact with me to come to a resolution (they did not). Someone who owns this buisness has no probelm our right lying, and now I'm receiving suspicious mail from them

              Salesman was new but did his job well. Finance and contract department not so much. Told me the truck was one price but then added other fees after the fact and didn't explain anything to me. Contract guy just asked for my electronic signature and out it on the contract without giving me a chance to read it.
