New York Lemon Law applying to private sale cars…?

November 6, 2010 - 12:59 am 7 Comments

This may have been asked an answered, but I couldn’t find it. A week ago yesterday my fiance bought me a 93 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. I looked at it quick and just told him that it looked like an okay enough car to me, he looked at it 3 times before handing over the money to the previous owner, but he apparently missed some key things. He had me take it to a mechanic today to have an oil change and to have the front lug studs looked at because a few of the lug nuts were missing and he wanted to make sure the studs were okay before new lug nuts were put on it… anyway… according to the mechanic the cat has been taken off, which is needed to pass inspection next year, the front breaks are at less than 25%, it needs new rear drum breaks, the tires are dry and cracking on the inside, and its supposed to be all time 4 wheel drive, but there is no 4×4 drive shaft. The guy we bought it from told my fiance that the breaks were new, and so were the tires, that the A/C works, which it doesn’t, not really a big deal though, and that the 4 wheel works, which it obviously doesn’t. I tried to tell my fiance the first time I got behind the wheel that it didn’t, but he told me that it had to because the guy told him that it did… and yes, my fiance is one of those overly trusting people. The mechanic told me I should have my fiance return it. I told him that I didn’t think I could because it was a private sale. He told me that it doesn’t matter, that the lemon law applies to a private sale car that cost more than $1000, and that he’s had to fight it for customers before in court and won. We spent $1400. I’ve looked high and low on the internet, but everything I find tells me something different. Does anyone know of a clause in the Lemon Law that allows for private party sales, or of a good website where I can find real info? Even the DMV website confused me. Thanks in advance for the help.
Thanks… I didn’t think it applied to used, private party cars. And yes, the bill of sale does say as is. I know I should have had him have a mechanic look at it prior, but like I said, he’s overly trusting… I on the other hand am not.
Peter Griffin… I agree 100% with your Chrysler comment. I told him that it was an “okay looking” car, but I had told him in the past no more Chrysler. He had a 95 Neon that the computer went in 3 times in 2 years and a 97 Intrepid that there was oil in one day, and none the next, with no spots on the drive. I really wanted another Ford. I had a 91 Ranger that had 250,000 miles on it when I sold it, and a 93 Taurus that had 299,503 miles on it when I took it off the road due to the bottom rotting out, engine is still great (another cheap car like your Honda, I paid $600 for it).

Thanks again to everyone. I thought I was right, its nice to know I am. :)
ElGrande… I don’t know why everyone got thumbs down, as far as I’m concerned, they’re all right. It was the mechanic that the Lemon Law applies to cars that cost over $1000, but you’re right, there would be way too many filings if it did. Like I said somewhere up there I wanted to take it to a mechanic before hand, I always want to take my cars to mechanics before hand, but he doens’t like to, for whatever reason. Maybe he’ll learn his lesson. This is the second time it happened to him. He bought a 00 Sportage in January that got a vacuum leak in it the day after he brought it home, and the 2 front callipers basically fell apart a week later.
I didn’t necessarily want to return it, it’ll still be fun to go mudding with til the inspection exprires next year, I just wanted to know if the Lemon Law actually applied to private party sales, cause I had never heard of it. Like everyone has said, I thought private party sales were “as is”.

I bought a car from New York and I live in Ohio. The car is in need of a new engine after being in a shop over 25 days and the problem has tried to have been fixed 3 times but they were unable to get the car fixed. My question is, where do I go from here..do I contact an Ohio lawyer regarding this situation or should I contact a New York Lemon Law Lawyer? Any information at all would be helpful

New York State Lemon Law?

November 5, 2010 - 4:20 am 2 Comments

Hello
I bought a 2000 suzuki from a buy here pay here dealership with 50,000 miles on it on about 4/20 of this year. Ive since put about 5000 miles on it and have run into some problems. The car had these same problems when I bought the car but not as severe as they have become in the past months. I brought the car in weeks after buying it and they simply brushed it off and said it would be alright and that its an older car, although they did supposedly do a thorough inspection. They are being very uncooperative about it now and i was just wondering if anyone could explain the NY state lemon law to me and if i have any shot whatsoever at getting my money back.
El Grande thanks for the info it was helpful. N, although is was nice of you to totally repeat what el grande said I think i got it the first time. You sound far to intelligent to be responding to questions online genius. I respect you.

The New York Used Car Lemon Law

November 4, 2010 - 11:19 pm No Comments

With an acute recession in the economy, people tend to think twice before investing in new cars.  New vehicles depreciate rapidly and it makes a lot of financial sense buying a pre-owned car. By the time you buy a New York used vehicle its price had already stabilized to a plateau with only the slightest depreciation towards the next year. Since buying a New York used vehicle is the second most expensive purchase one makes, researching is of the highest priority to avoid buying a used lemon car.

The New York used car lemon law provides a time and mileage minimum for warranties, whichever occurs first to protect the rights of the New York used car consumers.

New York Lemon Laws

November 4, 2010 - 10:42 pm No Comments

In vehicle terms, a ‘lemon’ is referred to as a vehicle a person has owned for less than two years that is defective. A vehicle is usually considered defective if either the manufacturer or dealer is unable to repair the vehicle after a number of repair attempts. The New York Lemon Laws and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (Federal Lemon Law) gives residents of New York a legal method of acquiring compensation for a lemon such as a replacement, refund, or cash for defective trucks, cars, RV’s, motorcycles, and other vehicles. To qualify for compensation, one must have made reasonable attempts to have the vehicle repaired while the vehicle is still under the manufacturer’s warranty. That is, if the vehicle does not meet the terms of the manufacturer’s warranty or the dealer cannot repair it after a number of attempts during the first two years or 18, 000 miles.  The owner of the vehicle has the choice of a comparable replacement or a complete refund.
