What is the name of your state? Oregon
I recently sold my car for $4500 through an online ad. I told the buyer beforehand that the car needed an oil change. I also told her she could take it to a mechanic before she bought it to make sure she knew exactly what she was getting. She said she was prepared for a few minor expenses and declined. Five days later, she called to say she stopped payment on her check because the car may need a new transmission. She wants me to pay half of the repair or she will return my car.
I know that car doesn't need a new transmission. But beyond that, didn't she buy the car "as is" especially since she didn't take my invitation to take it to a mechanic? I did not misrepresent the condition of the car.
Is it legal for her to stop payment on the check? Is small claims court my only option?
