Hello, good morning, I want to make a complaint, I don't know if you can help me. What happened to my car was that I bought it at a major world dealership in long island city, which they told me that the car did not have an accident or total loss report, which turns out to be a lie after a few months with the car. I noticed that the car has total damage.

Veh making weird sounds coming from right front wheel area. "cracking, popping, squeaking" dealership fixed it and continues, next week dealership stated they would order more parts to repair it. Then they found when they went to fix it the second time that the frame was bent and broken with rust and it is impossible to repair without repairing the suspension first.
