Provided by YP.comLotto Auto is a joke. The owner, Brian, seemed like a really nice guy and I am sure he is, but watch out. The first thing I told him was I did not want to get stuck with a cash car that needed a lot of mechanical work. I needed reliable transportation. He assured me it was a good car (or at least Hyundai's were good cars). I bought a 2004 Accent for $3000. I should have been more careful but I trusted him.
The next morning when I went to work, the "Check Engine" light came on. Five minutes later my wife called and said there was a pool of oil in the driveway and a trail of oil going down the street. I called Brian back and told him I wanted to bring the car back because he was not forthcoming about the car. He told me the contract said "As is". I had already talked with a mechanic friend who said, from what I told him, it would cost around $1000 to fix it. When I told Brian that he suggested I take it somewhere else because that sounded a little high. So I took it to Christian Brothers, to a mechanic I have been using for 20 years. I got the estimate back and it would cost $2800 to fix the car. So now I am still down a car and am out $3000. Oh, by the way, Brian stopped returning my phone calls...shocking!
The only advice I can give you is "Run Away!"
