Your post is lacking in detail.

California does not have lemon law for used cars that are out of the factory warranty. Enjoy your car.

Unless that car came with a written guarantee or warranty of fitness, the majority of car sales are considered AS IS.

If you did not have the car checked out by a reputable mechanic to verify the condition before you purchased, and you bought the car anyway, you got what you paid for.

I am not sure what lemon laws are in Cali, but here in Florida it only applies to new cars that have a problem with the same thing three times. So, lets say that the car has a bad engine, you get it fixed but it breaks the same way two more times, then its considered a lemon.

Used cars are generally always sold as is. Especially if it is a buy here, pay here place rather then a reputable dealer. Dealers may offer their own kind of warranty, but if your car broke down within 30 miles, my guess is it was from a buy here, pay here place, was an old car, and there is no warranty.

Like the other guy said, you have just been taken for a ride, enjoy your car.

In California, caveat emptor on used cars.

You are intent on increasing your post count, aren't you? You really had to bring up a thread that has one foot in the grave, right

It appears so - she's made 32 posts in 24 hours. And I still manage to average less than one post a day.

I overlooked the date, nothing more.
