Question

Used Car Sales "As is"


What is the name of your state? New York State.

I was wondering if I sold a 1987 Honda Accord with over 130,000 miles that is on its last leg, and I sell it for $500 by the side of the road, can someone sue me if it dies after I sell it, or if God forbid, it cause an accident??

Really ? Ya want the Law ? " AS-IS " means as is , unless you mis advertise it .

But ya know ? '87 for 500 be real .

And while the Law is the Law , you'd be a rip off .

actually, the blue book is over $1000, believe it or not. Even for the least expensive model. Course, who knows how bad this car is. I looked at the "fair" value, which is the lowest that is shown.

Comprehension of the OPs' writing suggest foul play But He/She could stick a for sale " as-is " , not say another word except you decide if you want it , and it will be Sold " as-is " , upon receipt of sale . Of course if it's junk , He can expect a lawsuit , but the buyer would have to be awfully convincing He/She was wronged .

Make sure the Bill of Sale reads "as is". No buyer in there right mind should expect anything else.

OMG I reported this IDIOT for spamming to Mary, but I am afraid if I report it again the post will just be put on my ignore list.

So somebody else do it

The question is not if you can be sued but if they can win.... All auto sales like this should be AS-IS on your bill of sale. Now if you're really worried.... you can always sell it as "Parts".
