What is the name of your state? CA
We purchased a used vehicle from an individual. At the time we were told that it had recently passed smog. (California requires seller to have vehicle smogged no more than 90-days prior to sale). Went to register the vehicle and found out it had not been done within the 90-days. I had it smogged and it did not pass. Found out the motor was bad. Contacted seller who was unwilling to work it out or take it back. Stated is was sold "as is". The only document signed was the title, no contract stating we were purchasing it as is. Does implied warranty apply when purchasing a used vehicle from an individual?
We have since found out that when the seller purchased the vehicle they knew it needed a new motor.
Thank you for any infomation or links you can provide.
