James B. Treece writes at Automotive News reports that Sean Kane, a consumer advocate, bought a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee with three unfixed recall orders on it from CarMax. The report says that Kane is upset but the CarMax did everything it had to under the law, including having a link to the NHTSA’s VIN look-up website on its website. CarMax also told Kane about the recalls and Kane signed forms saying that he had been told. As CarMax said in a statement, Kane had “the opportunity to walk away or return the vehicle.” Treece says that CarMax followed the law and the Kane’s actions were designed to move forward his own agenda.
