    Default Dealership Question??? FAKE Emission???

    Ok, so my mom bought a 2001 Daewood Nubira from a small dealership down in Canton. I told her not a buy it because DAEWOOD is a piece if shit. She tells me she won't and come home in it!!!! I'm furious!!!!

    Now the thing is that the car has a check engine light, rides like shit, need an aligment(lady said it had one) and is ugly as hell!!

    ***CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON FROM THE DEALER!!!!

    The women at the dealer tell my mom not to worry about the emission because she would take care of it. CEL is on.. I guessing she paid under the table which is illegal!!!!

    I get home, look at the car and start it. The CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON!!!! I believe a dealers shouldn't sell a car that doesnt pass emission.

    I mad as hell because they ripped my mom off!!!! What can i do? Can i ask for my money back? Use the Fake emission against her and tell her i'm taking her to court?

    LMK, Thanks

    Take it and get it checked out. Get emissions done, and take the "dealership" she bought it from all the invoices on everything. Make them refund her the money, as they "took care of emissions". Check engine light could be several different things.

    Sorry forgot to put that info. It already has emission. But the dealer sold it with a CEL. I went down to AutoZone and got it checked out. It came up to be the Camshaft Position Sensor. Got a quote and was little over $100. The thing is we don't want the car.

    Well, take it back. Tell them there is such a thing called a Lemon Law. Tell them you're not happy and will be contacting BBB (betterbusiness bureau)

    A: Selling a car like that is wrong from the dealer, sold "as is" means its hers "as is" whether it be a MIL light or a blown engine.

    B: WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD BUY A CAR IN THAT CONDITION???

    C: I think you mean "Daewoo"

    You can't return it unless you have it in writing. Used cars are sold as is most of the time. Check you papers but expect the worst. Daewoo has gotta be one of the toughest cars to get parts for...drive it until the wheels fall off and then get another ride...

    amen, not to mention the state about fraud on emissions and many other things. a dealer in a county that has emissions i think has to have their cars pass emissions before selling them, i'm not sure of the rules because i dont have them in barrow county yet.
    Check out my for sale threads!! 15" competition speakerbox, 1TB External hard drive, and plenty of car parts!!!

    Does canton have emmisions? Or the county you live in? If it does and they sold a car that won't pass emissions, take them to court...
    I asked a girl if i could buy her a drink, she said I have a boyfriend, so I said, well i have a goldfish, she said what? I replied, oh I'm sorry I thought we were talking about shit that doesnt matter.

    What city/county is the dealer located in...? Actually regardless, they can't sell a car that can't pass emmisions.
