SUV owner takes unusual road

What if your new car has flaws but the car dealer refuses to change it? A car owner came up with an unusual idea to shame the dealer: parade the vehicle.

A new SUV, pulled by five men with a rope, set off from the front gate of a car outlet and was paraded in Xi'an, Northwest China's Shaanxi province, on Monday, hsw.cn reported.

The owner, surnamed Wang, said the vehicle, worth of 640,000 yuan ($102,879), started leaking oil three days after he bought it. He employed car trackers to express his anger after several failed negotiations with the dealer.
