Question by Ally S: question about used car and Virginia Lemon Law?
So here’s my story, I live in Virginia, on NOV 3, 2010 I bought a used car(1994 Ford Taurus SHO) from a used car dealership, “as is”, no warranty. The car kept dying and smoking, so I took it back about 3 times for them to fix it, because the guy said “if anything is wrong, bring it back and we’ll fix it.” On NOV 19, 2010, they kept the car for 2 days, fixing it, and I picked it up on NOV 20, 2010. On NOV 27, 2010, the car completely broke down, battery died, power steering seized up(i think), and when we called the dealership and told them about what happened and if they’d fix it, they said “no we won’t, because we already fixed it.” Also, the dealer did not give me a “buyers guide”. So does my car fall under the Virginia Lemon Law where I can basically take the car back and say give me my money back, since it hasn’t even been a month since I’ve had the car? Or there something else that can help me get my money back? Please help!!! Thank you so much.
the car I bought is not new, it is USED

You bought a 16 year old car without a warranty. You have little claim against the dealer, much less through the states ‘lemon law’.
