I need a professional opinion. Me and my fiance have been searching all over. I found many sites that posted the box has to be marked either “As is” or “No Warranty”. We’re wondering because the sales rep just had him initial above the “As is” box. Would that hold up in court or do we have a case since he didn’t technically check off the box. There’s some other things he didn’t do like his math is horrible. He’s nearly $1,000 off in the balance. And he sold us gap insurance which I was told we didn’t even need. It was just something they sell to make more money on those who don’t know any different. Can you help us. Do I have any kind of case? Because if we would have had the warranty like the dealer gave to us and took away we would still have our car and be making payments. No thanks to him, we lost our job due to an infuctional vehicle, lost our car due to lack of funding and had to move out of our place. Now thankfully we’re back on our feet and have a home and new vehicle. But my fiance has bad credit and we were scammed. Any suggestions. We’re hoping they sue us soon so we can take them to a legal court room and get the money back we so deserve. Any suggestions on getting them to sue sooner?

Thanks.

Actually it was there fault. Within a month or so the radiator and the transmission to the car failed. I’d say that they knew about this and didn’t care. For $10,000 that’s pathetic. I now have a car I only paid $900 for. We only had to do minor repairs so far. Crossing my fingers. But I guess I will have to chuck up a loss and say I will only deal with independant people from now on. That just sickens me. And you sir, I assume from your total lack of regard and respect for the common man or woman must be a car dealer rep yourself. How do you sleep with yourself at night doing this to innocent people?

    Don’t file Bankrupcy

    That sounds like a hell of a mess. I personally suggest that you talk to an attorney about that. That is much to serious of a matter to be askin people online. Don’t wait.

    You don’t have any recourse against them. It was not their fault that you lost your job or lost your house. Stop blaming others for your problems. You don’t deserve anything from them. Hopefully you will learn from this experience. ADDED—–I am not a dealer or rep. I am an individual who takes responsibility for my own actions (or inactions). I do not blame others for my not making sure I have done everything possible to make sure if I buy a used car that it will be servicable. I also realize that if I buy one without a warranty the dealer selling it will not be held accountable for any problems it may have. If a person is worried about reliability they should get a new vehicle. You also cannot blame others for consequences from an inoperative vehicle. You could have taken the bus, rented a car or found a way to get to work if it was important. I sleep quite well as I don’t “pass the buck” to others for things that happen in my life. Please do not assume you know things about my character. You do not know me. I have not made assumptions about you. I have only stated facts based on what you wrote.

    There Are Alternatives to Bankruptcy

    Initialing the box is all that’s needed. It doesn’t have to be checked off. By initialing it, the buyer states that he/she fully understands the car is being sold as-is.

    Burden of proof is another thing. You’ll need to be able to prove the dealer knew about the defects and hid them from you for you to have a case against them. That is very difficult. And that’s where a lawyer comes in. You should consult with one to see if you have grounds for suing them.

    An inspection by a mechanic before buying would have save you that mess.

    The coolant in the radiator would have been checked and so would have the transmission fluid.

    Or, you could have come here and we could have told you if the car in question is a piece of crap.

    Being a used vehicle, you have to assume you are buying “as is”.

    Oh well.
