You are free and clear my friend. It is not your fault. 5 days after purchase is a week. Most lemon laws apply to either the first 24-48 hours or...if you stated on the bill of sale sold ';as-is'; then it doesn't matter anyway as far as the lemon law goes. I have sold some real classics, but the were project cars and all bills of sales states sold ';as-is'; ';Where-is';. This protects me from any complaints etc. Once they buy, then they agree to my terms and that's that.I sold car and he blew motor 5 days later now he said odmetor dont work an said i must false mileage?
It doesn't matter what else was said or wrote, the key point here is AS IS.





As in:


AS IS


WHERE IT IS


THERE IT IS


IT'S YOURS





If he bought it as is, don't worry about it. He hasn't a legal leg to stand on. As is is as is. You are not responsible for ANYTHING that happens to it after it left your possession unless there was some kind of written warrenty.
If U knew it did not work and told him it is his problem.. If it did not work and you failed to tell him the truth YOU are at fault. But.............. It depends on what the agreement was when he paid you the money. He should not have bought such a junker! Again it ONLY depends upon an agreement.
If you sold it ';as is'; then the buyer accepted it in whatever condition it was when he took delivery. Anything that happened after that point is the responsibility of the buyer, not you because you made no warranties, expressed or implied.
When you sell something ';as is'; your not responsible for anything that happens after the person takes it off your property. He's basically out of luck unless you decide to help him and legally you aren't.
He will have to prove that you falsified the odometer reading. Otherwise, the sale was AS-IS. Unless you lied or purposely mis-represented the condition of the vehicle, he just had a bad luck. You are not liable.
Sold as is, is just that, AS IS.
It's called CAVEAT EMPTOR- ';Let the buyer beware';.
What did he expect for 700 bucks? Tell him to go swivel.
as-is..just what u told him..he could of blew it in those quick couple of days//keep documents as-is..means just what it states-as-is!
Who knows what he did to it in 5 days. Cars are sold as-is.
