She said that she waited for more than 150 days from ordering the car to picking up the car. On August 13, she finally picked up the car and went home. Unexpectedly, the first photo taken of the new car was of the car being towed away by a tow truck.Ms. Chen said that while she was waiting for a traffic light on her way home after picking up her car, the vehicle suddenly fell over and could not be put into gear and could not drive.
