Guys I need your opinion on this one...
I bought a 1998 Ford Explorer from this dealer 3 weeks ago. They got it from an Auto Auction in PA. The CarFax report showing that this SUV is 'clean'. The dealer gave me a temporary tag that was expired yesterday [8/28]. During this time the dealer never call me or anything. It just hit me yesterday that I supposedly already get the Reg. card, License Plate and the Title (paid cash) by now. So I call the dealer today, left a message and finally someone call me back and told me that: "The Auction said they have sent the title to us but we never got it. It has been taken care of and the new one will be arrived next week. You could come tomorrow to get extended temporary tag."
When I asked her why they didn't tell me before, they said that "I know I should've tell you last week but I was sick and Jim (her son) was away on vacation."
The thing is.. how could they sell car without having the title yet? At this point I realized I smell something fishy. But again I'm not 100% sure. Maybe it was just an honest mistake.
So.. what do you guys think? I need to know what to do by tonight before I decide to go get the extende temporary tag tomorrow morning. Should I call this transaction off? Or just go ahead..?
