What are the common problems in overseas car sales horror stories?

One horror story is when a customer bought a so - called 'imported luxury car' overseas. When it arrived, it had major mechanical issues that the seller had not disclosed. The engine made strange noises and the brakes were faulty. The customer had to spend a fortune on repairs.

One common problem is incorrect classification of items for sales tax. For example, a business might think a product is tax - exempt when it's not. Another is miscalculation of sales tax amounts, which can happen due to errors in accounting software or human error. Also, not keeping proper records can be a big issue. If a business can't show clear records of sales and the associated tax calculations, it can lead to big problems during an audit.

Another common problem is with the brakes. If the brakes don't work as they should, it's a huge safety risk. There have been stories where the brake pads wore out extremely quickly or the brake fluid leaked, causing the brakes to fail. Rust can also be an issue in lemon cars, especially in areas where there is a lot of moisture. Rust can affect the car's structure and mechanical parts over time.

Title issues are also frequent. Like in the case where there are liens on the car that the buyer is unaware of until after the purchase. It can create a lot of legal trouble.

In car loan horror stories, a frequent problem is the balloon payment. This is a large payment due at the end of the loan term that borrowers may not be fully aware of when they take out the loan. Additionally, some lenders might not report payments accurately to the credit bureaus, which can damage the borrower's credit score. There can also be issues with the collateral, like the lender having the right to take the car even if the borrower has made most of the payments but is a bit behind on the last few.

One common problem could be a lack of effective marketing. If people don't know about the visual novel, they're not likely to buy it.

Jealousy and control often play a big role. In a remarriage, if one partner is overly jealous, it can create a really toxic environment. For instance, a man constantly checking his wife's phone and not allowing her to have male friends. Also, differences in expectations regarding family roles can be a nightmare. If one person expects a traditional family setup and the other doesn't, it leads to constant arguing.

Data inaccuracies are common. For example, wrong information getting into the system and messing up reports.

One common problem is vehicle cleanliness. People often find cars that are not clean at all.

High and unexpected maintenance fees are common. For example, people think they're just paying for the purchase but then get hit with huge annual fees.
