Pompano Beach, FL asked in Consumer Law and Lemon Law for Florida

Q: I purchased a car two months ago AS IS from a dealer in Florida and when I purchased it ,it had a problem starting.

Now the car won`t start most of the time and if it does if we go anywhere we can`t turn it off because it might not start again. And also the dealer still has not transferred the registration as of yet. My wife are both on social security and live pay check to pay check and are both under a doctors care and no way to get back and forth to them or anywhere else. What can I do about these matters? I don`t even have money to pay for this chat

A: No way to say for sure here online. I suggest that you consult with an attorney in person on the issue, but suggest that since you purchased the car "as is" then you likely have not recourse against the dealer as he did not make any promises regarding the car.

Good Luck.
