Shifty's Used Cars Watch

I purchased and financed a 2008 Volkswagen New Beetle through in-house financing from Thrifty Used Cars & Tires, LLC in Bay St. Louis, MS. My vehicle was towed without my authorization from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and transported to the dealer's lot in Mississippi. At the time of towing, my personal belongings were left inside the vehicle... I have made repeated requests for the return of my property... The owner and staff have ignored my communications, refused to provide documentation or explanation, and have not returned my property... My missing property includes an orange book sack with important documents, clothing, and black boots — including my children's birth certificates, my Social Security card and number, as well as my children's Social Security numbers.

I bought a car from Thrifty Used Cars and drove it for about two and a half months. One day... when I got back in the car, the lights [didn't] work... When I opened the hood, I saw the wires to the lights were just loosely taped and hazardous. That could've started a fire... wires under my feet, which later came apart while I was driving and caused the car to completely shut off. A car almost hit me... they tried to say I got a car repossessed which isn't true... On top of that they repoed the non working car without my permission... I wasn't even one payment behind and today they called me asking for a payment to a car they took.

They did not give me the carfacts on it and when I took [it] off their hands I text them the same night I got it to let them know it's running [hot] and keep on us in middle of the street.

I paid 600.00 for a motor and now they are saying I can't get the car unless I pay the car note out.

I paid the business a total of 3800 or so after taxes and title for a 2009 Audi A4! After 5 days it gave me trouble with the engine and started throwing me many codes... No one was willing to service the vehicle for me at all because of the type of car it is. Well all along (Thrifty) knew what the problem was that was wrong with the car and still failed to inform me of this after many attempts of asking them to try to service it or let me get another vehicle! Well they tricked me into getting the car towed to the business and never heard from them for 2 days... they got agitated and rudely told me to leave or they would call the police for trespassing.
