Robert of San Angelo TX writes (2/21/03):
I bought a car from Prime Automotive AKA Transworld Motors AKA Transworld Auto AKA NADDeals. Mike, Mohammed, Baderddine is the owner of this company, that seems to have many names. He lives and works out of Houston Texas. I bought a car from him Jan 19th through eBay. He was selling his vehicles under the E-bay user name of "primeautomotive".

When the car arrived at my house I immediately noticed serious problems. I had no reason to believe that this car had ever been wrecked because the description of the vehicle did not disclose any problems and was said to be in great shape. As it turns out my 2001 Sunfire was sold at auction as salvage 8 months ago. The repairs were so poor that they even left a big hole under the seat, headlamp pointing up, twisted frame, loose wheel bearings on the right front, and a junkyard strut, that is bent, on the right front.

I am an ASE Master Technician and former Daimler Chrysler auto trainer. I can tell you with all confidence that this car is unsafe to drive. To top it off, it is now 3/18/03 and he still will not even give me the title or a bill of sale, just took almost $7,000 in money from my wire transfer and cashiers check. After further investigation of Transworld, I found that Mike and his coworkers are going to auctions and buying junk cars and reselling them.

Robert should file a complaint with the Texas Attorney General. He should also file a claim against Transworld in Small Claims Court. He does not need an attorney to do this.
