So You Just Bought A Lemon

February 15, 2022 by t3atlanta Leave a Comment

You expect your car to run well for years when you buy it. But it’s possible to get unlucky and purchase a ‘lemon’. If you happen to end up with one of these vehicles, don’t panic! This article will advise what to do if you have bought a lemon.

What makes a car a lemon?

There is no definitive answer to this question, as each state has its laws regarding lemons. However, some general rules of thumb can help you determine if your car is a lemon.

  • If your car has been in the shop more than it’s been on the road, it’s probably a lemon.
  • If it’s been in the shop for multiple repairs within a short period, or if the repairs are consistently costly, then it’s likely a lemon.
  • Another sign of a lemon car is being in for repair more than once for the same issue. If your vehicle has a recurring problem that the dealer can’t seem to fix, it’s probably a lemon.
  • Finally, if your car has been recalled for a significant safety issue, it’s probably a lemon.

What to do if you bought a lemon

If you think you have bought a lemon, don’t worry – you are not alone. It’s hard to identify a lemon from the looks alone. Often, people buy a lemon, not realizing it until after a few weeks or months.

If you bought a lemon, the first thing you need to do is contact the dealer and let them know. The dealer will often be willing to work with you to resolve the issue. They may offer to repurchase the car from you, or they may give you a refund on the purchase price.

If the dealer doesn’t offer to help, or if you’re not happy with their solution, you can file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau or your state’s Attorney General. You can also hire a lawyer to help you get your money back.

Pre-purchase car inspection

Getting a trusted mechanic from a reputable business is critical. If you’re thinking about buying a used car, it’s a good idea to have it inspected by a mechanic before you buy it. This will help you spot any potential problems with the car and avoid buying a lemon.

General car repair services

If you already own a lemon car, don’t worry! There are plenty of repair shops that can help you get your vehicle back on the road. These shops can fix everything from minor repairs to major engine work. So if your car requires some TLC, don’t hesitate to give them a call!

Have a mechanic check a pre-owned vehicle

If you’re in the market for a used car, there’s one crucial step you shouldn’t skip: having it inspected by a mechanic. This will help you spot any potential problems with the car and avoid buying a lemon.

If your car is already showing signs of trouble, don’t worry! There are plenty of repair shops that can help you get your car back on the road. These shops can fix everything from minor repairs to major engine work. So, if your vehicle requires some TLC, don’t hesitate to give us a call!

T3 Atlanta

Lexus, Infiniti, Toyota, and Nissan Maintenance

In 1994, our founder, Charles Wright, wanted to leave the corporate/professional environment and start his own company. After months of reading business planning books, he decided to establish an auto service company. He recalled reading that auto repair people were the first or second least trusted group of people among service providers, and Charles wanted to provide Atlanta car owners with a trustworthy auto repair shop. He learned how the service business was structured, and opened T3 Atlanta to offer customers an affordable and efficient service company.
