Does this car fall under the lemon law? What are my rights? Question: I live in Abilene TX, and about four months ago I purchased a 1999 Ford Taurus from Abilene Used Car Sales , the car was sold "AS IS" but did include a limited 30-day warranty by the second week the car was having major transmission problems, i took it back and the manager drove it and said that he didn't see anything wrong with it. So I just left it alone , just last week the cars transmission stalled and the car overheated I pulled over over immediately called the car lot and they towed it in for repairs , so they ended up fixing the a/c , transmission & a corroded freeze plug, i payed 125$ down on the repair fees and agreed to pay the rest out. Within twenty minutes of me driving it the temp gauge went all the way up and the engine started knocking i pulled over and called the car lot and they sent a tow truck to come and get it and when i asked what to do about a ride home they said " sorry i can only send a tow truck" so i had to walk 3 miles to get home in the Texas heat, anyhow i also noticed that on the underside of the engine there is a ton of rust? what could this be? Last time they had the car in to fix they had it for a week and now who knows how long they will have it again so none the less i am stranded and afoot and it really sucks i don't know what to do this car has repeatedly made me late for work and left me stuck on the side of the road in this terrible heat wave i am not sure what to do at this point Any advice or comments greatly appreciated Thanks! Answer: Your rights ? You bought a car as-is. You're an owner. Ive never heard of as is and a warranty. Cant be both, Its one or the other. |

Am I stuck with this P.O.S. or it the seller liable for the damage? Question: I live in Abilene TX, and about four months ago I purchased a 1999 Ford Taurus from Abilene Used Car Sales , the car did include a limited 30-day warranty by the second week the car was having major transmission problems, i took it back and the manager drove it and said that he didn't see anything wrong with it.

Last time they had the car in to fix they had it for a week and now who knows how long they will have it again so none the less i am stranded and afoot and it really sucks i don't know what to do this car has repeatedly made me late for work and left me stuck on the side of the road in this terrible heat wave i am not sure what to do at this point IF the engine in non-reparable will i still have to pay since it was damaged by the lots mechanic? And as for Scott H and alfredb1979, I paid for the repairs out of my pocket and when i picked up the car within twenty minutes it broke down so whatever your opinion is , mine is that if i pay for something they had better get it right, no matter i spoke with a lawyer to day and she is going to force the lot to pay for the damage caused buy bad repairs Answer: Is the title for this car clean? This car sounds like a Katrina Flood victim. I'm just speculating but if there is that much rust around the engine this car had to be submerged. I'd be asking some questions about the title to see it has a salvage title or a repaired title (use to be salvage but is now showing clean). I think you got screwed and if this is the case you can sue. |
