Lemon Laws in California?

Question by gangsta95620: Lemon Laws in California?

I recently purchased a 1997 Toyota Corolla from a used car dealer “as is”. As I understand it as long as I didn’t sign any thing that clearly states “(1) The goods are being sold on an “as is” or “with all faults”
basis.
(2) The entire risk as to the quality and performance of the goods
is with the buyer.
(3) Should the goods prove defective following their purchase, the
buyer and not the manufacturer, distributor, or retailer assumes the
entire cost of all necessary servicing or repair.”
I am still protected by Lemon Laws in California. The problem I’m having with the car is that the Braking fluid is where the steering fluid should be and visa versa. Both my braking and steering were about to fail and it will cost ~00 to fix. With this in mind it must be considered that I could of been killed along with pedestrians and I was sold an extremely dangerous car. Am I entitled to compensation?
Just to clarify, now I realize I have no protection under Lemon Laws. However this isn’t about the car being defective. It is about the HUGE saftey hazard this vehicle posed to the public.

California Lemon Laws and the federal Lemon Law (the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act) provide for compensation to California consumers of defective automobiles and trucks and other vehicles and products including motorcycles, RV’s, boats, computers and other consumer appliances and products. To qualify under the California Lemon Law or the federal Lemon Law, you must generally have a product that suffered multiple repair attempts under the manufacturer’s factory warranty. Lemon Law compensation can include a refund, replacement or cash compensation.

Questions about lemon law on a used vehicle in california?

Question by alldayworker: Questions about lemon law on a used vehicle in california?

I have recently purchased a used audi 2005 a4 quattro the vehicle is still under the factory warranty. To my knowledge. This vehicle was in the shop for airbag problem. I had purchased the car with remainder of the factory warranty on it. The car went back in the shop 2 weeks ago for the same issue and over the prior weeknd the air bag light has gone on again.I drove the car to audi and now they want to rip out the old airbag an put new air bag on the drivers side and they say it is a safety issue and will not return the car to me until it is fixed. My concern this is going to be a major issue with this car now they are tearing the dash apart and who knows what else is going to happen. Like they say once they start ripping it apart it will never be the same. Luckily audi is popping for everything even the rental but out of the 6 weeks ive owned the car its been in there for 2 of them. Even though i didnt buy the car from audi do i have a case gainst them being this car is still warrant

Answer by purevil69420
if im not mistaken it has to be in the shop 3 times for the exact samething everytime, now it sounds like it has but at least they are trying o fix it. If its the driver side air bag its in the steering wheel and they shouldnt have to tear the dash apart to get it out, it just comes out of the steering wheel. And I would go suing the company personally, sounds like they are doing all the can to fix it. If they werent then thats when I would go after the LOT u bought it from, not Audi. Its the lots fault for intentionally selling a lemon.or bad car. But I would wait and see what happens first. Sounds like they are doing a good job trying to fix it, a rental and all, damn thats good.

Answer by Jamir
Usually, lawyers doing litigation work on a contingent fee basis. The lawyer gets 1/3 of whatever you are awarded in damages — that is a basic contingent fee arrangement. The lawyer only gets paid when you do.

The other side would be responsible for its own lawyer’s fees — probably on a hourly basis.

((California’s law falls hardest on sellers of unhealthy dogs, but hobby breeders do not fall under its provisions except for the extremely active ones. It applies to anyone who sold, transferred, or gave away two or more litters during the preceding calendar year.))
Buyers have 15 days to document contagious or infectious disease, one year to document congenital or hereditary defects. The seller has 120 days to produce advertised registration papers. If the seller fails to do so, the buyer may return the dog for a full refund or keep the dog and receive a refund of 75 percent of the purchase price. If the dog is proven to be ill or to have hereditary defects, the buyer is entitled to a replacement plus reimbursement for veterinary expenses related to certifying the dog’s illness, up to the price of the dog including sales tax.
If someone is actually not a breeder and their dog just so happened to have pups and they sold them does this apply to them? Would it be hobby breeding?

Best answer:

Answer by renogal1972
It states that the laws only apply to people whose dogs have had 2 or more litters of puppies in the last year.

What You Need to Know to Prevent Car Dealers, and Other Finance Sources, From Accessing Your Credit Reports Without Your Permission

What You Need to Know to Prevent Car Dealers, and Other Finance Sources, From Accessing Your Credit Reports Without Your Permission

More and more, people arrange for their own financing before buying cars or other big-ticket consumer items (boats, refrigerators, etc.) In my own opinion, this is a superior idea. However, such consumers then fill out credit applications at the dealership, which in turn pulls the consumer’s credit and lowers the consumer’s credit score with a “hard pull”. This is entirely unnecessary.

I have received many calls over the years from consumers who tell me (and I generally believe them) that they verbally told the dealership not to pull the credit report, but the dealer does anyway. Can they do anything? Usually, no. I address this problem in a very recent correspondence with a woman named Rebecca, which follows:

“Dear Mr. Brennan, I have a questions I went to a dealership to buy a car, did not do business with them financially I already had my loan from the credit union and I told them this, thy promised me they wouldn’t pull my credit or touch anything like that. Once I signed the paper work from them to send the buyers order and sticker to my credit union etc. I came to work the next morning had got notice that the dealership pulled my credit regardless and its showing on all 3 bureu’s what can I do? Signed, Rebecca”

“Dear Rebecca, if you signed something from the dealer authorizing them to pull your credit, there’s not a lot you can do. Unfortunately at many car lots, etc., the authorization to pull your credit is in small print and you would not normally notice it unless you were specifically looking for it. I usually advise consumers to specifically look for and cross out the language giving the dealer the right to pull a credit report, if indeed the consumer is not going to be applying for financing through the dealer. If the consumer already has his or her own loan, there’s absolutely no reason for the dealer to pull credit, but dealers will often pull credit anyway to find out how much they can upcharge the consumer with worthless add-ons on their loan, such as window etchings, leather treatment, etc.

“However, the moral of this story is, don’t rely on verbal assurances that the dealer will not pull credit. You need to read through the purchase contract, or other dealer documents, and find the language allowing them to pull credit, and cross it off. Or, give them a letter with your signature stating that you positively do not grant them permission to pull credit, and obviously keep a copy for yourself. It needs to be in writing to get anywhere with an unauthorized credit access claim.”
