Car Purchase Legal Concerns

Summary

Ohios Lemon Law primarily covers new cars, but used cars may have implied warranties. Review your purchase agreement for any warranty or return policy. If you believe the dealer misrepresented the car, consider filing a complaint with the Ohio Attorney Generals Consumer Protection Section. Connecting with a local lawyer can provide further assistance in addressing these issues.

It sounds like you're dealing with a serious issue, Donald. Here are a few things to consider:
- Ohio's Lemon Law applies to new cars, but used cars may still have implied warranties.
- Check your purchase agreement for any warranty or return policy.
- Consider filing a complaint with the Ohio Attorney General's Consumer Protection Section if you believe VanDevere misrepresented the car.

No thanks for at least listening to me everybody telling me I shouldn't pay them I didn't want to be further than that all my life I paid cash because I work two jobs and always contracting on the side I thought I'd be better off not on anybody but I should have built up a better credit history but I did raise three children by myself without their mom she wanted to party and I was all about working and taking care of home so I divorced her and raise my three kids by myself took away all my savings. I'll just sit back and wait for a lawyer to call me thank you very much for your time.
