On October 11, 2023, Ms. Guzman stepped into Lithia Hyundai of Fresno with the intention of purchasing a vehicle and stepped out later that day with a new 2023 Hyundai Palisade. 335 miles later, the vehicle’s engine stopped working as it was in use. After taking it to a shop for repair, it was determined that the car needed a completely new engine. Trying to be reasonable, Ms. Guzman agreed to have repairs done and was told it would be months until the vehicle could be repaired.

Because of this bad deal, Ms. Guzman was kept from both professional and personal activities because of a lack of proper transportation also including the damages sustained from the vehicle needing a new engine.
