Paul Moyer - Extreme Auto Plaza Couple Sold A Lemon Des Moines Iowa

Read your rip off story!!! All I can say is I know the insides of this company and this man it's why I left!! Paul was charged with 5 counts of fraud and one count of theft in October of 2015 it's in the Des Moines Register poor you can Google out.  Anyway maybe you could talk to the Polk County Attorney to see if you could get your money back??? Just a suggestion??? 

I Also bought a 2001 Grand Prix GTP. i left the lot and returned right away because of an oil leak. They said they would fix it for free.  I returned to pick up the car after the work had been done and left the lot, again returned the car right away because the engine was knocking. at this point i wanted my money back. instead he gave me an option on buying a Dodge avenger. it had a completely cracked windshield, torn out radio, dirty engine and a water bottle wedged to catch the overflow. i rejected it and was very angered/offended he even offered me the car. he went on to say the
mechanic hasn't even looked at it but he was still willing to sell me this car for $2,000. the car was barely worth scrap. they are very untrustworthy people.

We did sell the 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP and took in trade a Dodge Durang as part of the downpayment. The Grand Prix ran and drove like new when they bought it. Our dealership is in Des Moines, IA and the customer in this case is from Ames, IA, approx. 30 miles away. Customers drove this car back and forth several times and did their own oil change before heading to their IL destination. I believe a faulty oil change (perhaps the oil either ran out from the oil plug either didn't get put back in or it didn't get tightened) and the car ran without oil too long causing the engine to go bad. When the car was brought back here, the engine was bad and our mechanic took off the oil pan and it was obvious that the car had been run with no oil in it. At that point the customers stopped paying and wanted their stereo which falls under attatched equiptment and therefor stays with the car.
We did offer our cost to fix the car but the customer refused and said it was our fault that the engine went bad. We don't sell bad cars or cars with bad engines knowingly. We have been here 15 years and have a great reputation in this town and we always are willing to work with customers in any bad situation.
Unfortunatly this deal did cost both the customers and this dealership alot of money that could have been prevented by a proper oil change and or a customer willing to work things out instead of just giving up.

Thank you,
