I don't see how you can recover the full cost of the roof back. But, if you prove those facts, you likely can recover the vent repair costs, doctor's bills and court fees. I would recommend small claims court since you indicate those damages are under $20,000.

answered on Nov 5, 2024

Assuming that you purchased the vehicle new and it is still in warranty, you likely have a claim against the manufacturer under the warranty to have the stabilizer bar properly replaced.
If you bought the vehicle used, it is most likely you bought the vehicle "as-is" and that any... View More
