Question: How can I handle a situation where my car was not properly repaired by a non-certified shop, and what are my legal options if the shop has potentially caused further damage to the vehicle?
Answer: In a case where a car repair was incomplete and potentially worsened by the repair shop, you should discuss with an attorney to see if there is an applicable legal theory under the warranty of merchantability. You should additionally review contracts to determine any warranties that are express or implied.
If you'd like to book a call with an attorney to discuss your situation, or for help reviewing your contract, contact Cape Law to see if services are offered in your jurisdiction.
