2012-2013 APA Investigation of Vancouver Used Car Dealers, with W5

2012-2013 APA Investigation of Vancouver Used Car Dealers, with W5

I keep reading and hearing about shady dealers, but I thought this was interesting because it was an independent study.

I drive by "Lucky 8" occasionally, and always wondered if their cars were as bad as their reputation.
Quote:
4. Lucky 8 Auto Sales
715 Kingsway, Vancouver
FAIL
2012 Nissan Rogue $20,900
2009 Subaru Legacy with 9905 km for $16,900
Extra fees: None
Lucky 8 was the worst dealer of the investigation. The dealer failed for misrepresenting damage to a vehicle, offering for sale an unsafe vehicle, and for deceptive advertising. This dealer ran materially different ads in English than in Chinese. When APA translated the ads for the Legacy and Rogue appearing in the EasyTradeWeekly, a Chinese language paper, (Issue 34, October 13, 2012), they indicated “no accident”. In English there were no representations to that effect.

Look up your favorite kingsway/surrey shady dealer!!
