On 3/16/15 I traded a 2007 Acura TSX for a 2000 Jeep Wrangler. I took the Jeep for a test drive and when I came back I explained that I heard a whining noise. Dan told me that it was the clutch and he took off money from the price of the Jeep so that I could get it replaced. I agreed and was told that everything was in working order. I live about 2 1/2 hours from his dealership. About 1 1/2 hours on my way home the Jeep made a loud clunking noise and stopped. I called for a toe at around 10:00 pm and had them toe it to the closest repair shop. I immediately called the dealership and left Dan a message. In the morning I spoke to the repair shop and it would take them a couple of days before they could get to look at my Jeep. Once they were able to look at it I was told that the transmission was bad. The price they wanted to fix the transmission was more than what I thought it should be. So I called another repair shop in the area and had it toed to that shop(Elliston Auto Repair). I then called Dan and told him that it was the transmission and that I had it toed to a different repair shop. He then proceeded to tell me that the Warranty Company would probably not pay for any of it. He said that they usually find a way to not pay. Dan then told me he would have someone pick it up and take it back to his shop for the repairs. After thinking about it I didn't trust him or his mechanic since they obviously did see the problem in the first place. Dan told me he would have a clutch kit dropped shipped to the repair shop and he would send me a check for $500.00 if I would no longer make him responsible and if I, my family or friends did not post anything about him or his company. I then received a call from the repair shop a couple of days later and they told me that the differential was also bad. He told me that the dealership should have caught this if they had done any kind of check out of the Jeep. He then told me that the transmission didn't have one drop of transmission fluid. I went and picked up the Jeep on 4/8/15 and the bill was $3802.90. Of course on my way home the warranty company called me and told me that they were not paying anything since it was a preexisting condition of the vehicle. In my opinion, he knew he was selling me a vehicle that was unsafe and he didn't even consider the fact that my son was in the Jeep with me.

If they only had a 0 Stars!!! We are an equipment reseller and paid a deposit to Lapine of $7,000 to purchase 2 older dump trucks. Our buyer changed his mind and decided that he didn't want to purchase these 2 trucks after all. We requested a refund and Lapine Trucks refused to refund our money. The owner later agreed to allow us to apply the deposit to a different item. However, when we found a suitable item with a value close to $7,000, he reneged on his offer. The reason he gave was that he 'changed his mind'!!! In the end we Paid his company $7,000 and received NOTHING in RETURN. I call that STEALING but if nothing more it shows you that they'll take your money and give you nothing in return, if the opportunity presents itself and that's what they did to us. Is that the kind of company you want to do business with?
