I told the dealer that I wouldn't buy it unless they got rid of the cig smell out of the car. A couple days later they called me and said that they took care of the problem and when I went to pick it up I asked them how they did it and they said they used this product called the Auto Shocker quick release and that you can buy it at biocidesystems.com for your own personal use. I bought the car and I've had it for a year now and not one bit of cigarette smell has been noticed so the product works great, I highly recommend it for any odor problems in your car!

I hope that you've complained to their customer service reps, and posted reviews wherever you purchased it. ;( As far as getting it out of your vents - the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002Z2MKO?ie=UTF8&tag=httpwwwnateca-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0002Z2MKO" rel="nofollow">Klima-Cleaner</a> product seemed to work pretty well at cleaning out that system for me.. may be worth a shot?

I have a similar story but not with a smoke smell but a chemical farm smell. I tried the dakota odor bomb which shifted the smell, however; has gave me a very painful sore throat! I left the car to air out for 3 hours but it didnt seem to go away. I can't get rid of the chemical dakota scent smell!! I have a funny feeling this scent is now within my air vents and will not go away any time soon. I dont want to use my car as I get imediate sore throats! I would not use Dakota product ever again!

I'm not sure i would be brave enough to even buy a car that had been smoked in, it would have to be a pretty darn good deal. :) But it sounds like you found a good solution, congrats!
