The key words I notice are "settled out of court" which means there was some sort of payment to you (as you did not have your vehicle replaced by the manufacturer as you may have been entitled) in exchange for some sort of release. The terms of that release are the crux of you civil... View More

You would need to check on the existence of any Pet Lemon Law in CT. I would recommend checking with the CT Attorney General's Office. NY Lemon Law does not apply to out of state sales.

I would need to know more detail about the car and your agreement when you bought the car. You cannot get the guy arrested based on the facts you present. The woman you spoke to at the house doesn’t dictate whether you can sue. You don’t need to wait a year. Again, I would need more details... View More

IMPO, the arbitration clause in the contract is valid regardless of how bad the laptop was when Dell sold it to you--or how many terrible things Dell has done since--or how much proof you have against Dell.
The agreement was that "as long as I payoff the car loan within the first few months of the financed loan, the payoff price would be $7000" but if the loan wasn't paid within that time period the loan would be $11,500 (as it is right now). I signed the agreement after being told... View More

Not against the bank, but maybe against the dealer depending on the evidence you have on the tape.
I want them to buy my car back because it's been in the garage more than I've had it and this time the garage can't figure out what is wrong with it they've tried everything they can and I don't want to keep paying for a car I can't even drive.

You're not covered by the lemon law because over 125K miles and if the warranty was for only 1K in miles then you may have lost your rights there as well.
It will come down to what the contract / purchase documents say. Most likely this is a shady dealership that got you to sign some... View More

Yes the Lemon Law applies. They are required to fix the car. Document your request. Copy Audi headquarters.

The problem is if it was in an accident and wasn't totaled, generally that is, to carfax a depreciation. Did the dealer give you the carfax report? You may have a claim under state law. If you are trading it in at the dealer that sold it then they should give you the value with no markdown as... View More
