Assuming you bought the car "AS-IS", pay to have it fixed. Lemon laws do not apply to used vehicles. You should have had the vehicle inspected by an independant mechanic prior to purchasing the car.

In the future you can:

Buy a car with a warranty that is honored by a dealer or group of dealers you can trust.

Buy a Japanesse car. (or at least a car that has not depreciated by 70% in 6 years)

Sorry about your bad deal.
