Dear All,
I recently bought a Cadillac Seville from a dealer in New York State.
I have discovered that the catalytic converter has been cut out of the exhaust system and a pipe welded in its place. I must now replace the whole exhaust system.
The car is not covered under New York's "Lemon Law" as it had done over 100,000 miles.
Does the above constitute a breach of New York's Vehicle Law Section 417, which requires the dealer to certify the vehicle complies with requirements of the Commissioner's Regulations, and at the time of delivery was in condition and repair to render satisfactory service on the public highway? I have the dealers certificate to this effect.
Does the removal of the converter constitute a breach of any New York State or Federal emmission laws?
Any advice would be very gratefully accepted. Thanks in advance.
