| | I bought a car recently and discovered after driving it off the lot that the windshield wipers don't work, nor do the headlights. The daylights come on, but only in drive and they're really dim. My wipers only move when I have my 'brights' on, but as I said, my wipers nor lights really even work. Now I bought it as is, no warranty, but what about the Lemon Laws? Would they help me here? EDIT: I did test drive it. Wipers and lights are a standard thing. There is no reason why a car should be sold if those don't work, unless it's to a tard like myself I guess. | | |

| | I just traded my truck for an suv at a dealership. I was driving the suv home and the transmission started slipping. I called the dealership and told them that the transmission was slipping and there was a miss. I signed a paper about the 30 day thousand mile warranty. Also initialed one that said that i was buying the vehicle in as is conditoion. Since it is a dealer ship, don't they have a lemon law that helps protect me from getting screwed over? | | |

| | I bought it less than 3 weeks ago and it is now in its second round of repairs. First the gear panel stopped working (it moved in park, didn't accelerate in drive, and wouldn't go uphill) and the dealership took it in and told me an axle popped out and it was "repaired." I was still concerned because I read that it could also be a transmission issue. They took it back to appease me. After a day, they called to tell me they too didn't think it drove as smoothly as it should so they'd like to keep it a bit longer. It had less than 11,500 miles when purchased. The owner of the dealership is refusing a refund and if I understand the NYS lemon law correctly, he has 4 attempts of repair it before he HAS to return my money. But, at this point I do not feel safe driving it as a car with such low mileage should not have so many problems and I would like to not deal with this dealership at all. It was not until I became irate and aggressive that the! y even began to pay me any mind. It is a 2008 Honda Pilot. Thank you all. I'd just like to clarify that in NYS the Lemon Law applies to both new and used cars. After the first "repair," they're now looking over the car again (this second time), as a courtesy to me, because of the big stink I made and it is just now that they've realized the matter may be bigger than just the axle popping out. Had I not made a fuss, there'd be no second review. Simply put, I now understand that my "peace of mind" in driving my small child around in this vehicle, giving out on us as we're exiting I-95 and possibly causing an accident, does not warrant me a refund. I live and I learn! | | |
| Open Question: Is my car covered under the CA Lemon Law?

| | I bought a 2005 chrysler sebring on 12/30/2009 for $2000. I bought it, "AS IS". The seller said he does not know if there's anything wrong with it or not. I towed to a garage and apparently, there is a lot of problems with this car. Head gasket, cracked heads, burned intakes, timing chain, water pump, and a couple of other things. About $2000 worth of repairs. I live in the state of California and i bought the car is California. Is this car considered a lemon? | | | |
