Lemon Law???
 

Anyone have any experience with the Lemon Law?? I threatened about it
today when I brought my car in and they looked scared and started
treating me really nice. Does it apply to used cars? I would be glad
to be rid of this car if I can get my money back for it? Do I have any
ground to stand on or what? Thanks if anyone can help!

I BOUGHT one once.
It was recalled because of the paint.

My first Mustang, 95 GT.
I won't go into the details again, but I should have let it sit there. The
car was cursed.

No, it doesn't. Perhaps you should read some of them.
For example, CA's law only applies to new vehicles.

Assuming you are still in AR:


"This subchapter shall be known and may be cited
as the "Arkansas New Motor Vehicle Quality Assurance Act"
....

"(10) "Manufacturer" means:

(A) Any person who is engaged in the business of constructing or
assembling new motor vehicles or installing, on previously assembled
vehicle chassis, special bodies or equipment which, when installed, form
an integral part of the new motor vehicle;"

...etc...

Only applies to new cars.

Refresh me about this car?? I'll say, the "lemon law" is for
used cars and arbitration is for new cars. I do know someone who took
a Baton Rouge Nissan dealer into arbitration, so I can get some good
info for you if you need it.

David,

He purchased a warranty. Should they ever decide to start denying this
warranty then he can call it a lemon & seek legal action. He isn't abusing
the car & causing it to have these problems, but rather the car is a ****-up
or they are screwing up on repairs they are doing.

Additionally:

IS THERE A LEMON LAW FOR USED CARS?

Yes - if you receive an express written warranty with the vehicle. An
express written warranty can be either a) the balance of a manufacturer's
warranty, b) a separate limited warranty given by the dealer, or c) an
extended warranty or service contract you purchase from the dealer at the
time you purchase the vehicle. If you have such a warranty, the substance of
the new car lemon laws apply.
