Free brake inspections are a sham. They get your car up on the rack and go to town on the unsustainable customer. They know you don't have a clue what they are talking about. First, they point out the brake pads. and explain the uneven wear are caused by the brake hose and then the brake calipers need to be replaced also. Now you are talking about $300.
Then they go to the other side to tell you the same exact thing. Their micrometers are set to show your brake rotors Need to be Replaced also. Another $200.
The rear brakes are next! They convince you the brake calipers are frozen and need to be replaced. Another $300. The brake rotors are used by the miscalculated micrometers again. Another $200. If they are lucky they will get you for brake hoses too. So, in reality, Free Brake Inspections are just to get you in the door. Please Be Careful. the auto dude

Beware Used Cars Tricks Secrets
When shopping for a used cars kicking the tires is a poor way to test the vehicle. I can tell you the correct way to test the car. Here are a few ways to test the car instead of kicking them old tires. Please be aware. I am a 27 year Automobile Tech. with ASE Certifications
The worst car lot Ive witness was https://www.car-mart.com/ Watch Out!
- Look under the car for mud and rust.
- Look at the front tires for uneven tires
- Take for a test drive then look under the car for Leaks
- Listen for engine knocks coming from the motor
- If the transmission slips in gear get rid of it.
- If its hard to start get rid of it.
- While test driving make sure the car goes straight and not pull to one side
- Of course make sure the Check Engine Light and Brake light is not illuminated
- Remember once the car is driven off the Lot its your problem NOW.
- Now under the hood. The car engine is power washed and shined before sold.
- Inspect the cracked belts
- The transmission fluid should be pink in color
- The engine oil should be light brown color.
- The antifreeze should be green in color. The brake fluid should be brown Not Black

CAR-MART WORST PLACE TO GO
Car-Mart is the worst used car,buy here pay here,2nd chance financing, to take your very nice trade in to. You will never get it back if the car-mart-junk dosent work out for you. I tried contacting the Missouri Attorney Generals office, The Better Business Bureau, and the Consumer Affairs office.
Despite the Telephone Harrasment, Stalking, and Early reposession Car-Mart performs on all cars once you sign that paper your life is over. Your best bet is if you see a car-mart lot just keep on going! The amount of complaints against car-mart on the web cant be all listed here. They do nothing to resolve your problems.The harrasing phone calls are around 5 per day. The stalking is done by the GPS installed on the cars. They know where you are and where you go at all times. Its kind of creepy!
When their site says they accept small farm animals for trade ins I felt dumb useing my 2012 Mazda 3 giving them the benefit of the doubt. 2 months prior I paid $9,000 and bought $600 worth of tires for it. 3 months into this contract they reposessed the car I was interested in and refused to give back mytrade in.
Just rememberCar-mart was and is the worst place to go!

Car-Mart-Junk Review in Saint Joseph Missouri UPDATE
Have you ever wondered how you can find a reputable used car place. Such as a buy here pay here kinda place. I know most of these places store junk on their lots like car-mart of 2504 S Belt Hwy, St Joseph, MO 64503,(8162057077). They advertise, "Search a large selection of quality used cars with flexible financing options regardless of your credit history at car-mart.com.". One Review reported they took a used x-box and took it as a trade in. This may sound cool but if you think about it, who would accept used x-boxes for trade in? In my opinion, this sounds real low class and shady.These guys or ladies at this location, St.Joseph Mo., was given a lot more credit when I spotted a Mitsubishi I wanted. I did not have a x-box to trade to them but I used my Very Nice 2012 Mazda 3 which the previous 6 months I paid close to $9,000 for! I made the first $500 payment on time then called to let Car-mart of St. Joseph Mo. know the taxes and Insurance was way more higher than expected. I let them know, (Car-Mart of St. Joseph Mo. 64503 location) that I may be a little late on my second payment.
That is when it all started and they showed me what kind of shady and low class they are. They called me 3 times a day for a week straight! I saw them stalking my home and every location I visited! Not only did they keep my $500 payment but REPOSSED THE 2010 MITSUBISHI AND KEPT MY TRADE IN THE 2012 MAZDA 3. Please visit my blog at, Car-Mart-Junk
for the rest of the story!
