My new car is a lemon and the guy won't do anything. I'm actually in a worse place now than before I bought this car, because before when my car exploded I could refinance my loan and get a different cheap car that ran. Well now I don't even have that option.
I'm angry and doing the math it'll be February before I can afford to fix this car.
You know I only sold my soul for 3 years for this lemon whatever.
Are there no "lemon laws" in your area (unless you brought it from a person and not a company)?
Lemon laws only work if you're the first original owner, you've had it regularly serviced from a dealership, and you bought it from a dealership less than 12 mos.
So essentially our lemon laws are only for brand new cars
That sucks.
I had thought differently but upon looking into it, you're right.
The name of the law is kind of deceptive. ?
@Agamic it's a false law pretending to have the consumers best interests at heart yet only really protecting the cooperations again
What kind of car and year is it? Many people are going carless. Maybe that can be an option for you? Uber or lyft in your area? How long did you have it? Maybe you can sell it on craigslist to a mechanic if you can't get a refund?
I work 40 miles away, there is no Uber or lyft. I can't sell it because there is a high interest lean on it
Check and see if there is a lemon law in your state. I just researched it, check this out [kansaslemonlaw.org] Also, after you do that if you don't get any assistance call your state attorney general's office and ask if they handle lemon law cases--sometimes they do. Good luck!
It doesn't cover my vehicle. Original owner only, no private sales
I don't even know what to do. At all. I suppose I could drive it off a bridge
Try calling your Senator's office and ask for advice. They might know who to refer you to? I'm really not sure if there is somewhere you can turn for recourse?
@RavenCT all the resources are for things like food bank and utility help. Cars and car repair is just....nothing. no help
