Poll: Have you ever had a dispute over a used car?
A Hamilton woman who spent $11,585 on a car that broke down days after she bought it has won her case in the Motor Vehicle Disputes Tribunal and wants her experience to inspire others to stand up for their rights.
In July, Shynesia Chapman bought a seven-seater Subaru Exiga from MVP Cars 2023 Ltd (MVP) in Hamilton for a total of $11,585, which included a mechanical warranty and insurance, with the funds financed through First Credit Union.
