A Utah man is in jail after he returned his used car to the dealership by driving it through the front doors. The incident occurred at a Mazda dealership in Sandy, Utah on Monday.
The unhappy customer purchased a used Subaru Outback, and discovered mechanical issues with the car within hours of buying it.
The frustrated customer asked staff to let him return the lemon to the dealership and get his money back.
However, the Mazda dealership told him that he bought the used car “as is” and he couldn’t return it.
According to Fox 13 News, the disgruntled customer warned that if they didn’t issue a refund, he would drive the car through the front doors.
The sales staff got their camera phones out and waited. The customer made good on his threat and drove the car through the front doors.
“I don’t want the car, I told you MFs. Call the cops,” the irate customer said as he got out of the wrecked vehicle.
The customer was arrested and charged with felony criminal mischief and reckless endangerment.
