Question: Does a buyer have a legal case if a vehicle purchased from a dealership fails shortly after purchase, despite assurances of its condition and a limited warranty?
Answer: In a case where a vehicle purchased from a dealership experienced significant mechanical failures shortly after purchase, you should gather all documentation regarding the vehicle's status at purchase and the subsequent mechnical failure. You should further review all warranty documents, and the sales agreement. You may consider sending a formalized demand letter indicating your desired resolution.
