Used Car Sales

Information

Information at the link from the Erie County Bar Association on your rights when buying used car.

When buying a used car, you should always shop around and take time in choosing your car. You should take the vehicle for a test drive, allowing the vehicle to reach a normal operating temperature. Many problems are not apparent in a short trip around the block. You should also have your own mechanic check the vehicle.

Under the law, each used vehicle must have a form on the window that indicates warranty information. If the vehicle is sold as-is, you will not have a warranty. You may wish to negotiate for, or purchase, a warranty if none is offered by the dealer. (2019)
