Ms. Leblanc is outraged
The vehicle she bought was not in good standing and "440 Chevrolet Buick Ltd. knew it when the vehicle was bought in 2014
Ms. Leblanc researched the Internet and found that she should have obtained about $10,000 for her vehicle
She states that she would have never purchased the vehicle or would not have paid so much if she had been aware of this reference to the vehicle history report(Carproof)and the manufacturing defect.
