Report
I purchased a truck for 96,000$ from this dealer in Dec of2020, i got promised a 30day warranty for major repairs. I drove the truck home to Ontario, by the time i got there it developed some major oil leaks . Both differentials were just drenched in oil ,the engine had multiple leaks , air bags were also leaking, The repairs came to almost $ 7000. I contacted the seller multiple times but wont pay any part of the bill. After all of this, the transmission is grinding gears when shifts from low to hi, that will cost another 8 to 10 thousand. They also lied about the engine being" recently" rebuilt

Worked at J.Brandt Ent. for 5 years as polisher and stripped trucks in preparation for sandblasting. Mechanics are experienced and the painters are good, management has improved drastically over the years and would work here again if needed

I would like to say thank you for everything that you have done in regards to getting the truck finalized. I was very impressed with the quality of the truck and service that Jon and his staff provide. I would recommend that if you are looking for a good quality used truck check with them first. Dealing with them
made the process enjoyable. They are very easy to deal with and have great attitude towards perspective clients. They DON'T sell scrap. I will be recommending to anyone who asks me about my truck. Job well done folk, once again thank you for everything..
