Suspension problem #1

Sold a 2014 Hyundai Veloster with grinding brakes, acceleration problem, and vibration issues. I was told everything would be fixed. I returned the car within 24hrs. The car vibrates dangerously at 50mph and above. The car hesitates when taking off, trying to pass, or get on freeway. This is also dangerous because cars already going 70mph could of hit us while trying to get on freeway. Sometimes while giving the car gas it would just rev up the rpms without doing anything. This also scared me into returning the car. I went back to test drive the car to see if problems were fixed, and the mi gente auto dealership told me they just replaced tires and that fixed the problem. I told them they can keep the car, because I don't want to keep coming back for same issues. I was threatened with repossession will be added to my credit.

Suspension problem #2

I purchased my velsoter brand new with 33 miles on it in November 2014. If Feb of 2015 I started to notice that the front end was shaking a little. I took it into my local dealership to have it looked at and get and oil change. I had about 8k miles on it. Their was a small scratch on one of the rims about 1/2 long, but nothing that would have caused the amount of shaking that was happening. The serviceman said he rotated the tires and their shouldn't be anymore issues. When I drove it home it was not any better in fact I thought it was worse. I took it back in yesterday to figure out why it is shaking and have it fixed. I was told that their were several dents in 2 of my rims which was throwing it off balance. I have not hit anything, I have not driven at speeds over 50. Their is no possible way that these dents happened due to anything being hit during normal everyday driving. They aren't looking anymore into it and won't fix it. I am very upset that this has been handled like this. Their is obviously some sort of defect or something with these particular rims if they have dents in them that have been caused by normal road conditions. They need to look more into it to figure out what the issue is because I should not be responsible for something that I have not caused.
