if he bought it as is..he is.dealers are responsible for most of problems; but other than that..let the buyer beware
Probably not. Since there was no warranty issued, the chances are that the car was sold "as is", which means that the seller is not responsible for making any repairs after the car was sold to you. It would be next to impossible to list everything that is wrong with a used car before being sold ... A used car is exactly what it is ... Used ... and being used means it could have problems later on.
The citations or tickets go with the seller of the car. that is the individual that violated the law,not the car or new owner. One has to take responsibility for their own actions.
WHAT?!?!?! Is the car stolen? DO you have a warrent?
Nothing. it was sold as is.
Yes. Usually the loan holder will be held responsible for any deficit and perhaps fees that are incurred when the car is sold.
What do you mean smog a car? If car is sold "as is", buyer is responsible for all mandatory smog control equipment. If you mean pass a smog inspection, there are none in Iowa.
Not if you sold it as-is.
Depends on the laws in California, and wheather you sold the car "As Is". If you sold it as is, then normally the answer would be NO.
they cannot be sued because they are not responsible for it after they sold it
The risks for an individual buying a cheap car for sale are the the car may have mechanical problems, the car may have been in an accident at one time, and interior may be deteriorating. There are so many problems that you should check the car out completely before buying.
Yes
No, In the UK, If you have contacted DVLA about selling the car then all the problems etc will not come back to you.
