Used Car... Ripped Off By Dealer

What do you expect from a car that only costs 2 grand?

i would expect it to run with no major problems.

usually there are bunch good deals but only from private sellers NOT dealers.

Lemon law is where the same problem occurs more then once. You need documented proof that the same problem keeps coming up and it has been serviced. Also if you buy it as is, you waive your lemon law rights. The only way the lemon law can be applied here is if the dealer knowingly sold you a lemon.

The dealer obviously knew, thats why he changed his story.

pretty much if you want them to do anything you're going to have to make it cost them more money not fixing it than it would to just fix it and be done.

Lots of attention.. standing outside with giant signs saying they ripped you off.. show them the craigslist ads and take out and threaten to take out an add in the paper.

I'd find his wife and get her pregnant.

then you have to worry about child support which = more money

Cool, thanks Devillain, I'm gonna see if there is anything I can do about this. Only thing is that I have no proof that he lied, other than maybe records of my car being towed to the garage the day after I got it, that's about all I have.

what is the number and address of this dealership. I couldnt find it. I didnt search that hard but still. I dont feel like it.
