When I first called Sky rise kingdom, their first impression was very good. I spoke with a nice woman named Saudi
The vehicle I was interested in appeared to be in very good condition. I confirmed with Saudi and she was nice enough to do a FaceTime video since I was located more than an hour and a half away.
After checking reviews on Google I thought they must be just a really good car dealership because it had 4.9 stars. Saudi had told me that they go through and do a thorough mechanical inspection on their vehicles and fix anything that needs attention.
After moving money around so that I could get a cashiers check, I drove the hour and 40 minutes with a friend to go see the vehicle.
When I got there within 10 minutes, it was apparent that THE MOTOR WAS BAD. With the car running - when I pulled the oil dipstick out, exhaust fumes and sputtering oil were being ejected out of the dipstick housing. This means that there are major issues with the motor, such as rings or pistons being damaged. Basically the motor was shot.
There is no way that a trained mechanic would be able to overlook this when an untrained person like myself spotted it within just a few minutes.
This was a total waste of my time and my friends time not to mention the inconvenience of moving money around and spending the gas to drive more than three hours round-trip. I don’t know how they got so many five star reviews, but my experience is nothing less than unacceptable.
I hope I save someone else the trouble and plant a seed of caution for an unsuspecting buyer. Thank goodness I did a little checking because otherwise the vehicle appeared in near perfect condition.
