As others have mentioned, I would definitely take it to another place to have it checked out. Obviously, things that would be correctable from a warranty standpoint are easy to complete. However, things like body work or paint work are going to be more of a pain in the ass... particularly if you're going to resell the car at some point.
In fact, an option that you may have is trying to get it alone for a test drive and swinging it by a different dealership to "consider" a trade in. If you can swing it, I've seen it take less than 15-20 minutes (from walk in to walk out) to have someone appraise the car. They're going to zero in on signs of body or paint work that a layperson wouldn't catch.
But, again as others have said, if you can get them to put it on paper that nothing like that has happened (which they should be qualified/expected to assess), then you would have some protection.
