The fluid was again replaced. This should not happen to a car with this low mileage. This…

    I attempted to purchase a 2005 honda cr-v, ex trim, 5-speed manual transmission. I found that three of the vehicles i test drove have a pull to the right, varying from moderate to severe between vehicles. When i complained, the dealer did not fix the vehicle, but added an extra 10 pounds of pressure to the right front tire - this of course masked (but didn't cure) the problem. I ended up canceling my contract and…
