She bought a salvaged car for 50 and was told the transmission was restored, but has since had to put hundreds in to get the car to work — she almost had an accident on the freeway.

She showed me the “Deposit Receipt” where she paid 00 and it does say “as is – no warranty” and the sales rep wrote in that the car was “fixed” listed minor repairs, and “alignment”

Isn’t there a “Lemon Law” that can help her via state agency or in small claims court?

She has been to the business (Elite Auto Sales in San Diego) and says the owner is always “unavailable” and one of the guys who works there told her they knew the car didn’t work, that’s just they way its — the neighbors to the business also told her they do this all the time — rip off the poorest people.

What should she do?

Start with the Better Buisness Bureau and register a complaint. Then go to the Attorney Gen’ls Office and ask for their assistance. Do you have a local TV station that has a consumer reporter? Ask them to get involved.

One of the most expensive and important purchases that a consumer can make in his or her life is a new car. One needs some knowledge and advice during car purchasing in order not to become a car dealer fraud victim.

There are more car dealers that will try and trick you into paying more for your car than it’s worth or they can scam auto loan financing by offering a higher interest rate than you can afford.

They do not disclose a vehicle’s salvage history, true odometer reading, earlier use, lemon-law buyback history, or repaired damage and other vehicle defects. In reality, they sell ‘lemons’ or other unsafe vehicles without warranties. Other most common car dealership frauds are “Yo Yo Financing” (AKA Spot Delivery) or the ever-popular Prep Fee Scam.

The vehicle is a major investment because everyone depends upon it to get you safely where you need to go. Reliability and uprightness are important, so be a smart consumer and don’t give up your rights.

Before buying a vehicle from a dealer, it is wise to have it examined by a trusted and knowledgeable mechanic and body shop to make sure it has not been involved in a serious accident. If so, don’t purchase it!

Can someone give me a ‘Dummy’ explaination of the California Lemon Law?

Question by Lali: Can someone give me a ‘Dummy’ explaination of the California Lemon Law?

I bought a 2007 Nissan Altima this past may from a Mercedes-Benz dealer…The car is running weird ever since the beginning. The dealer said I had to take it to the Nissan dealer since the car is still under warranty. The Nissan dealer told me to take it to the dealer I purchased the car from…I could swear the car is a lemon because I just noticed all the things wrong with it…Like the weird idling and the steering wheel clicking when I make turns.

Can someone please give me a ‘Dummy’ version of the California Lemon Law?

Can I also get a reference on how I can find out if my car is in fact a ‘Lemon’?

Thanks everyone

Answer by Rudy_kazootie
The plain version. There is no lemon law for used cars. Simple enough. If it is still under warranty it would need to be worked on by the dealer brand that sold it (Nissan).They would have three tries to fix a specific problem and then it may be considered as a “lemon” (key word being MAY).
