If you buy a used car that says "As Is" on the car or in the paperwork, you are stuck with it. There really aren't any lemon laws to protect you on used cars. Except: If there is still a manufacturers warranty left on the vehicle, the vehicle was "Certified" by the Manufacturer (in which case it came with a short Manufacturer's Warranty, typically 1 year), the vehicle has been proved to have had mechanical problems prior to you purchasing it and known to the seller (hard to prove), was previously salvaged or wrecked, the odometer was illegally rolled back, or if the car was stolen, stripped and/or rebuilt, and then sold. The only other thing that may apply is if there was a recall on that model at any time. Other than that, you are more than likely going to have to "eat" this one. Just remember, "Caveat emptor" or "Buyer Beware".

Good luck,

Susu
