| I bought my 2008 f350 truck from carbone ford on april 25, 2010. at the time, the truck had after market window tint on it. rather than remove the tint, they directed me to another inspection station so that the truck would pass by rolling down the windows (it failed once). 1 year later, i have the same issue again. this time however, i have learned that the truck they sold me was actually involved in a rollover (not properly disclosed). when i bought the vehicle, i knew that it had been in an accident. i told them i needed to know what happened before purchasing it. they said it just hit a snow bank and no big deal. they actually called someone to confirm this. they are not willing to fix the vehicle and are offering me only a very small dollar amount. meanwhile, the windows are still tinted and it will not pass inspection. jeff (i believe a manager there), instructed me to go to a garage that carbone worked closely with in the past. he told me to tell them that carbone sent me and that they would pass the vehicle even with the very dark tinted windows that came on the truck. they are selling vehicles that do not pass inspection, and then finding ways around it so that they don't have to fix them. i was told that if i try to get the inspection, i will get a red rejection sticker and will not be able to drive the truck anymore. | |||

| After parking my ford f-350 crew cab 4x4 with a v-10 engine, i exited the vehicle and circled around to the passenger side where i noticed from the corner of my eye flames in the r front wheel well. behind the tire. i immediately went inside the building and summoned help and a fire extinguisher (abc) . myself and security personnel did not open the hood. we directed the fire ext. into the wheel well and there was a sort of backlash and with seconds a paint bubbling hot spot appeared on the hood. we immediately contacted the fire department who responded. within minutes the engine compartment was completely engulfed in flames and there was flaming under the engine as well. we cleared the area of onlookers as fireman fought the blaze. there were no injuries to myself, the security guard who responded, firemen or onlookers. | |||
