Whether you are buying your car from a dealership or a private seller, ask them if the vehicle is still under any warranty or not. If it is not under any warranty, then it means that as soon as you drive away with your car you are solely responsible for any defect that occurs. Suggest to the dealer to extend car warranty with legal ways. However, if the used car is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, then the manufacturer or dealer still holds the responsibility for at least some damages. Either way, it is better to know what you are getting yourself into.
