Any used car dealership places you guys recommend to buy a car?

Got a car from there in December of 2013. Salesman was nice but I had two issues with them. I'm convinced the car they sold me had been in an accident that didn't go through insurance leaving it with a clean record. This is really my own fault for not inspecting it as good as I should have though. The driver side door handle on the inside of the car is loose and a few of the windows don't have the Honda brand on them meaning the were replaced. Further proving my speculations, one of the windows missing was on the same door that has the loose handle. This was pretty much confirmed when I had the vents on a few months later and a piece of broken glass shot out at me. Again this was really just my own stupidity for not taking more time to look over the car.

Secondly, I got into a big battle with one of the owners over honouring a TSB for my car. Basically, in this particular model year, the car would occasionally just pop out of third gear for no reason or you just wouldn't be able to shift into third at all. This was a defect in the transmission and seen as a safety hazard. After presenting the TSB and not getting anywhere one of the owners called me and basically told me that was too bad and I would have to pay for it. After a week long battle a different owner called me back and apologized saying he would in fact honour the TSB. I told him that after getting into it with the another owner and a few different employees, I'm not sure I trust them working on my car. He offered to pay for me to take it to my mechanic to get fixed if I provided a work order. In the end I let them do it, they replaced the entire transmission which amounted to about $8,000 so I'm happy.
