The car I just bought? Two days after I bought it? Transmission problems.
So there aren't any engine codes or transmission codes on the reader, but it is making a whine and skipping a small amount. They said it could just be sediment from sitting for months, but they won't guarantee one way or the other.
We are going to try a flush and a cleaning additive, but he isn't positive that will fix it.
If it doesn't I am demanding my money back, either to fix the transmission or get a new car. Again.
It's the torque converter I have to get fixed and I also can't afford treatment and agnostic deleted my post [gofundme.com]
A day late and a few dollars short:
If you are buying used, and especially if it is "as is" (no warranty), find a mechanic you trust (ASA AND ASE is best) and ask them how much they will charge to give a car you are thinking of buying a once over to let you know exactly what WILL need repairs.... and, whether or not the buy is worth your money.
IF the seller won't allow you to take the car to a mechanic before the sale, then don't buy. That, to me, says the seller knows there is an issue and they won't be able to sell the car if they are up front about it.
I'm thinking this would be covered under the Lemon Laws.
If it's not fixed get the money back.
Kansas lemon laws don't cover used cars
@LadyAlyxandrea Uh.... Oh boy.
Better look at your bill of sell. Its going to say as is.... if not, you might have a chance. Good luck!
