What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Mass
Hi,
I bought a used 2002 car from a private party from RI, I am living in Mass. I paid $4600 in cash, but did not ask the person to sign he receive the money(mistake). The title is on his girlfriend’s name. The car did not pass the inspection due to engine light on(but the light bulb been took out from the car, so I cannot see it when I bought it, may take out by the seller). On the 7th day I bought the car, I contacted the seller and he said he will buy part on ebay and fix it. But he did not answer my phone calls now.
1. What should I do?
2. Can I pay to have it fixed in order to pass the inspection and then sue him to pay for the cost? Sue him or his girlfriend, since her name is on the title?
3. Any other option?
Thanks!
Shawn
