I was currently using a scooter to get to work and the cold days came.. it started becoming a little hard to actually get to work and back since i was nearly frozen. Eventually i heard of this place called bond auto sales which supposedly gave a helping hand to people with bad credit and welcomed customers with open arms. Once the process began it was a nightmare, i thought i would leave with a car at about $500 but nope they took quite a chunk of money to do the entire process (estimate about 1k and some change). The guy who i spoke to named james mentioned "oh you have a scooter? well don't worry i will buy it off of you to help you in covering all these costs some" bs as soon as i managed to get the car i tried to get him to buy the scooter as he had previously offered, he just ignored it. The down payment for the vehicle ended up being more than what "james" had mentioned and so i ended up paying even more. Now this is where it gets worse... he first mentioned that any repairs would be covered even though the car is "as-is" as long as i had made enough payments on the vehicle to sum the amount needed for repairs. So one day i went to start the car and it wouldn't so i was planning on taking advantage of this suppose offer to get the car checked and fixed and to my surprise after i called to inquire they said "no the car is as-is so you are in charge of the repairs" and here's the really screwed up part, the car has what is known as a "kill-switch" which is pretty much a device that buy-here pay-here are putting in vehicles to make sure that if a customer is late on a payment that they can't no longer use the car until the payment is made but i had made my payment on time no problem. Now the car is going on 5 months and i decided to take it to a repair shop because it seemed to be leaking oil... come to find out the cam shaft sensor is done, the oil pressure switch is also done and there are a few other minor issues but one main one that deals with the alignment of the vehicle and it's going to cost about $900 to fix. Also note that this cars original price according to blue book is suppose to be about $4k max and yet with the stinking financing they upped it to $10k.... for 10k you'd think i should have a pretty decent vehicle. It's definitely wise to know what you're getting into before you pick a car for your needs... i failed and i am now paying the price JUST for the sake of having a car to keep me warm and take me safely to and from work.. don't trust bond auto sales.

I purchased a vehicle 2 years ago from Bond in St.Pete.
It was everything they said and more,even after 30 days they offered to fix a minor issue which was door handle.I have only done routine maintenance. Very happy with customer service.

Was told quote: I you have any problems that they work with me on the repairs even after the 30 day warranty. Said they will match or go below competitive mechanics

i bought a car from bond and had trouble from day one, i picked up car day one and drove to work and when i came out no instruinment panel lights, had to drive without them they had car for about a week then breaklight no oil again days in their shop and then something else. all this within the first 2 tmonths, i asked if they had a loner while they were repairing, answer no asked to change for another car answer no, so i felt the car was a lemon and i returned car . no only did they have 3 months payments my tradein and over 1000 cash they put me down as a repo to my credit standing. i only bought from them because they were there for years and i felt they would be a standup kind of people,not. dont waste your time on their lot.they should minus a star.
