Q: Hi..I purchased a Bentley from a dealer in Cleveland OH and I Beilieve details were not disclosed./fraud sale
Vehicle on day one broke down ended up needing two batteries for 750 dollars, then immediately needed 3k repairs which didn’t resolve some issues. Bottom of car completely rusted and local mechanic said it has sustained water damage. Dealer sent me check for 1500.00 which is no where near covering the issues

A: Check your contract. If you purchased the car "as is" and no affirmative misrepresentations about the car were made, you are likely out of luck. If the dealer made affirmative misrepresentations about the quality of the car, you may have a cause of action under Ohio's Consumer Sales Practices Act (CSPA) or for fraud.
