First, if you live in a private community it likely against their Rules & Regulations. The punishment would be a warning and/or a fine and depending on the R&R's agreed to by the homeowner the community may be able to tow it away. If the vehicle is important, suggest moving it or fixing it.

Second, some Cities / Towns have local ordinances about inoperable or "junk" vehicles, even if the vehicle is sitting on private property. If it can be seen, or if people can get near a junk vehicle, it poses a risk and is a public nuisance. Therefore you could be ordered to get it towed or be fined. You could be cited without notice. Some concerns cities have include but are not limited to:

  • public eyesores - example, body partly removed from vehicle
  • public risk - car without tires sitting on blocks; a neighborhood with children
  • potential health risk - example, rats like to eat wiring/insulation in vehicles

Note: Storage in a garage does not attract City attention.

In rural areas, Townships may not care unless your property looks like a junk yard.

How does the buyer protect himself if he has bought a car that has broken down within two months of the purchase when buying from a private seller?

In short, you are screwed. there is no way to reclaim money from a private seller in any state. your best bet would be a CARFAX or AUTOCHECK BEFORE purchasing the vehicle.

If it is parked legally and it is registered, than it is ok. But if it sits too long, it can be given a 72 hour notice and if it is still there after that then they can consider it to be abandoned and tow it.
