New car fully equipped......with drugs

This happened last week. My inlaws, who live on the Gulf Coast, lost their new car due to damage from Hurricane Ivan. An agreement was reached with the insurance company, and a new car was to be delivered to their home. However, the "new" car was not so new. There was no "new" car smell, there were 90 miles on the odometer, and in the glove box my father-in-law found a bag of marijuana and a pipe with lipstick remains. Apparently, there was quite a little party in the "new" car before it was delivered.

Maybe this was how Buick was competing with Chevrolet's 0% 72 months sale.

Does the car smeel like pot smoke? If it does, they're not going to have a good time if they get pulled over. The smoke smell never goes away.

The Navy, as well as local police departments, usually have some sort of program where you bring them a car you just purchased (new or used) and they'll go over it with drug dogs so that anything they find you won't be held accountable for. They way the Navy one works is you call them from the dealership, tell them you're heading STRAIGHT to the base or police department, and they'll have the dogs standing by.

Of course, if you get pulled over and they find the stuff, it's pretty much going to be on you.

My inlaws called the salesman demanding a newer car. The salesman claimed to have talked it over with the owner of the dealership and said all they could do was 2 free oil changes and a warranty extension....that's it.
So, the inlaws asked to speak to the owner, who was unaware of the problem regarding the drugs in the new car, and agreed to swap out my inlaws "new" car for a "newer" car. Inlaws were delivered a "newest" car, fully equipped with no drugs.

Is this a common occurrance in car purchases? I have never heard of this happening before, until the situation with my inlaws.

Could have been quite a few people that smoked in that car before your inlaws got it - I'd say the most likely parties would be either make-ready people (the folks at the dealership that wash the car and stuff before it leaves the lot) or someone who took it home for a night to try it out.

I have heard of several instances of people returning cars after finding joints or roaches in the ash tray, among other things... in brand new cars, that is.

And as far as the smell never leaving - I disagree. I'll leave it at that.
