What is the name of your state?OR
My husband and I bought a used vehicle from a dealer who claimed that they did an inspection. The low tire pressure light was on so I went and had the air check and adjusted. It came back on so I went somewhere else and it came back on and I went to yet a different place who looked under the vehicle.
They said that my rear tires are cord bare (I've only had the car for 2 1/2 weeks and put maybe 500 miles on it) and that it's a safety issue and they have to be replaced. I had this verified by another shop and then I called the dealer. Who "isn't sure if they can help out because of the great deal they gave us." Also, I have to take it somewhere else to make sure there's no bent parts making the tires wear the way they are.
So, I guess what I'm wondering is there any type of law or anything that says that car dealers have to make sure a vehicle is safe before it leaves their lot? What about bent parts? I'm not happy since I haul my 3 very small children around in this vehicle. Obviously I'm getting it fixed today no matter what but I'm wondering if the dealer is responsible since it obviously left their lot in that condition.
Thanks
