You have basically 2 choices, tell him to pound sand, or laugh in his face and hang up. You have no responsibility to him unless you guaranteed the car for this long of period of time which is highly unlikely. Even if the problems happened after 1 month, it would be his problem on a used vehicle for not having it checked out prior to purchasing.
