Q: Whats the lemon law on used cars like in CT?
I recently purchased a vehicle for $4600 from a private owner. On the bill of sales he wrote “as is”. Before thirty days the transfer case locked up, causing the drive shaft to snap, and the rear end to fall out of the car. Turns out whoever put on the transfer case did it wrong and i’m looking at $1000 worth of damage. I asked the guy who sold it to me to pay for it and he said he has no obligation because he sold it to me “as is”. Is he right, or does he have a legal obligation to pay it?
A: there are no lemon laws for used cars, in any state, and by definition you do not have a lemon as is is exactly what it means, you do not mention the other important information like make model or year, if this car is more than 15 years old, (which I am sure it is) it would be completely unreasonable to not expect any problems, so LOOK in your wallet, there is your grand, I emphasize with your unfortunate problem, no one installs a transfer case incorrectly, but it happened. Legally you can sue the guy in small claims court, but even the judge will recognize used cars are an as is deal no matter what.
and I am not trying to judge your mechanical ability, so don’t take what I write next personal.!!. My suggestion in the future, is take the car to a good mechanic before you buy it . it is possible, that this problem may have been caught before it self destructed. I had two sisters, who knew nothing about cars, one was too BUSY to check the oil, and kept blowing up motors. I found her a car one time, I had a friend agree to do a complete mechanical inspection we WERE AT THE SHOP, MY FRIEND WAS DOING ME A FAVOR, FOR FIFTY BUCKS HE WAS GOING TO DO THE WHOLE NINE YARDS, ENGINE AND TRANNY DIAGNOSTIC, COMPLETE BUMPER TO BUMPER INSPECTION, ALL SHE HAD TO DO WAS WAIT 3 MINUTES BUT NOOOOO she thinks she saved 50 bucks, and decided to buy the car. and just drove off, not even saying anything to me.
a short time later, the front end fell apart, and when she contacted the owner, they confessed that the grandson had launched the car across some ones corner yard, but since they were selling it, thought it was ok?? it was not my mechanic friend would have caught all the destroyed motor and tranny mounts, that were hanging in pieces. so 2200 bucks later, (my tightwad sister saved 50 bucks!!) six months later, I spent several hours trying to talk the other sister out of another front wheel drive pile of crap. I almost begged her to do one thing, to this used car, take it to a transmission shop, and pay for a 50 dollar fluid and filter change.(BUT NOOO SHE WAS ANOTHER TIGHT WAD, WANTING TO SAVE 50 BUCKS!!!)
SHE buys the car, and less than a month later, a 2,700 dollar transmission self destructed, and of course when the mechanic took the pan off (which was what I wanted done.BEFORE TIGHTWAD BOUGHT THE CAR) IT WAS PACKED FULL OF METAL, AND HAD BEEN COMING APART FOR LONG BEFORE SHE BOUGHT IT. sometimes those mechanical inspections can save a ton of money, and the other reason I use them, is I will negotiate the price of the car DOWN TOO! this ones on you, but now you know what you have for a transfer case (a good one now) it happens wildman, no one put it together wrong on purpose .
Q: Do I need to pay Sale tax and Use tax for my leased Car in CT ?
I was in CT last year and moved to OH. As soon as I moved my car leasing company ( GMAC ) increased my monthey payment by $20 as Sales Tax. Now I got a letter from them that I have to pay used tax and wanted to send them $250 . I dont live in CT anymore ..
I leased my car from IL and I think they took tax when I leased it . Not sure these sales tax and use tax in CT . Your help is really appriciated
Thanks

hi oklatom,
As I leased my car from IL , there is notin abt this use tax and sale tax.Its a CT law !!
A: Every state sales & use tax is slightly different but they all have a common theme: you have to pay sales tax, but if you don’t pay sales tax then you have to pay use tax.
You never have to pay both sales tax and use tax on the same transaction.
This I know from working many years in corporate state & local tax compliance.
Most likely, the GMAC lease will specify that they can collect from you whatever sales/use/property tax they have to pay. It’s a standard thing for these big car leasing companies.
Thing is, if GMAC paid more tax than was due, they can get a refund from CT. But nothing in your lease contract prevents them from collecting it from you.
I learned this when GE Auto Leasing billed me for property taxes on a lease a few years ago. I disputed it and we went back & forth for a while. Ended up paying because I needed my credit report cleared to refi the house.
So, GMAC might not be exactly the same as my situation, but I’d bet $10 it is.
Sorry that probably doesn’t help you decide what to do. $250 isn’t worth a lawyer unless you’re in one of those pre-paid legal plans.
Q: Private Car Sales in Connecticut?
When I sell a used car in CT as a private owner, is the car sold as is or am I liable for any problems they have within a certain time period? If so what is the time period? Anybody know what the law is, I couldn’t find anything.
A: The car is pretty much sold as is from what I hear.
Q: Looking to buy an integra for my first car?
Well i’m looking at several different integras. I am really liking the GS-R. bbut if not, i’ll be fine with the LS and probably just engine swap it. Well which of the following would you recommend? :

i know like 2/3 of the cars don’t have prices =[ but which one looks in mint condition? please help! thanks :]
A: I know what you want to hear, but I’m not going to tell you that. Which car you should buy depends completely on the quality of the vehicle, mechanically as well as physically. Integras are old, no doubt about it. They’re great cars, but they’re still old, and are bound to have problems since it’s almost 2010 and they haven’t been produced in years.
Look at all of these cars and find the one that is mechanically in the best shape. An engine swap is really a pretty silly idea. It will cost you thousands, more than any of those cars are even worth. Go to the dealers, talk to them, find one you trust, find a car that is actually a solid vehicle, then worry about modifying it.
All that said, for older vehicles, Integras are very nice cars, and have decent potential if you’re interested in speed, which it sounds like you may be.
Q: Sales Tax and Registration for purchasing a car in CT?
I am looking into buying a used car from a small automotive shop and was wondering what price I am looking at for sales tax and all of the registration fees (I am unsure if they can do all the paperwork and want to be prepared if they cannot, and make sure I am being charged correctly if they do). The vehicle is priced at $7,995
I found that the sales tax is 6% but I am unsure of what fees are included with the registration. If someone has any idea please help. I have been to the CT DMV website however it is very confusing
A: If you are getting a new tag, count on it being approx. $200-$225. Tax should be around $480. Hopefully you already have your insurance in place,cuz, they will want to see a binder. Good Luck!
Q: hybrid toyota prius tax free in CT?
My best friend has a beat up car that needs to be replaced!
I’ve have worked HERO hours to find him a car within his specifications: hatchback, low mpg (he says hybrid, but he liked a few non-hybrid cars), and gently used. He thinks his purchase will support anti-Alaskan oil devoplement.
I take his points in stride. BUT THE KID NEEDS A NEW CAR!!
I took him to many lots, and he always walks away. I know his reasons, and I understand them too. He doesn’t want to get burned in bying a used car.
He thinks hybrids are tax free our state(CT)? and found one at a “c_r_ax” dealer” [the other two letters are a and m] which i leave out for more honest opinions.
I keep warning him not to buy used, especially from “c_r m a x” !!!!, because they have a bad reputation.
I guess I’m hoping to prove him wrong, but in fairness I am looking for impartial advice either way (and i’m not really looking for c_r_max sales people’s bias on the subject, other opinion’s welcomed).
more later.
Connecticut Hybrid vehicle purchase Tax Incentives
Hybrid Sales Tax Exemption: Prior to July 1, 2008, Hybrids getting at least 40 mpg are exempt from the state’s 6% sales tax.
Free Hybrid Parking in New Haven: On June 6, 2005, the city of New Haven passed a law permitting hybrid vehicles registered in New Haven free parking at metered spots within the city. The ordinance will take effect within one month and only apply to alternative fuel vehicles registered in New Haven. Owners will have to come to City Hall to receive a decal which will be attached the to vehicle. Motorists will still need to obey posted time limits and must park in legal spots.
A: Okay I see a lot of incomplete or flat-out wrong information in previous posts so let me try to sort it out. Here’s the deal on a hybrid purchase in Connecticut: Any new or used hybrid purchased before October 1, 2008, that gets at least 40 mpg is exempt from state sales tax. The Federal Tax Credit applies to the purchase of any NEW hybrid vehicle and is calculated based on the mpg that model gets compared to it’s non-hybrid counterpart. A chart detailing the credit for different hybrids can be found on the IRS website. Keep in mind that the tax credit also gets cut in half after that car manufacturer has sold 60,000 hybrid vehicles. Toyota, who has led all manufacturers in hybrid production and sales, has already hit that mark and as a result the credit for any purchase of a Toyota hybrid is now half the original amount. It will be cut in half again April 1, 2007 and phased out completely October 1, 2007. So, taking the Prius as an example, it started with a $3150 credit, got reduced to $1575 on 10-1-06, will be $787.50 on 4-1-07, and will be $0.00 on 10-1-07. No other manufacturer has hit the 60,000 mark at this point. So, getting back to your original question, if your friend bought a used Prius, he would be exempt from sales tax but would not receive a tax credit (because it’s used). If he wants a hybrid he might be better off buying new as the resale value for hybrids is higher than most other vehicles and he would then be eligible for the IRS tax credit. Your friend’s environmental consciousness is commendable and, while hybrids are not perfect in terms of efficiency, they are the best current option in cutting down on fuel consumption.

A: Try getting a descent car. I know that Nissan’s and Toyota’s are hard to get for that price. You should get a Honda Civic instead. They save gas and the parts are cheap. Honda Civic is a car that you can rely on.
Q: Buying a Car out of state?
I live in Connecticut and am looking to purchase a used certified vehicle from a dealer in New Hampshire.
I’m wondering if anyone else has done this before (with these particular states) and what the process is? I have a registration from the state of CT for my old car that I want to transfer to this newer car.
Do I have to buy the vehicle in NH, then go back to CT with my bill of sale to get temporary tags, and then go back to NH to pick up the car or will NH give me temporary tags to drive it home to CT?
Thanks in advance…
A: Just tell the dealer you want to register the car in CT. Dealer will give you a temporary plate so you can drive it home and take care of the registration.
Don’t forget about insurance before you drive it away.
If you talk to your agent in advance, and call him from the dealer to give him the VIN, he can probably fax over your new card while you are signing papers.
Q: i’m thinking about getting snow tires and aftermarket rims for a ‘07 bmw 328 xi, good idea?
we will be using our bmw year round in CT, rather than mounting and dismounting the tires, (they are runflats), for each season i am thinking of buying some rims and mounting the snow tires on them. my concerns are; should i run a smaller width snow tire?, should i stay with the 16″ rims or could i run a set of older bmw rims (i know of a set from a ‘95 318is for sale)?, or would those rims even fit?, would running smaller rims mess up any computers or handling of the car? i don’t know if the older rims would be compatable with runflat tires or not. how do you handle this with your bmw? thanks in advance, car dude.
A: i would go with standard size rims and tires you will have to get rims for a car with pressure monitoring if you dont want to constantly see a warning when you have winter tires on. (there is a sensor in the rim that monitors pressure. snow tires make a bid difference and i recommend them although with AWD you can get away with all seasons. i have an Audi Quattro and i have gone through winter both with snows and all seasons and you can do it with the all seasons but the snows are recommended for breaking especially.
Q: Question for mechanics or knowledgeable Jeep owners about a 2004 Jeep Wrangler w/ lift kit?
I am looking at a used 2004 Jeep Wrangler Sport as an extra “fun” vehicle. I have nowhere near the knowledge of a mechanic. It has a lift kit and the sales person/mechanic at the dealership told me that one of the rear suspension things is locked up. They don’t intend on fixing it..it’s ‘as is’. Question is: can it be fixed? Is it ridiculously expensive to fix? Should I even care if it is fixed? If it isn’t fixed, will it cause further problems? They only want 12,000-ish for it, so I was thinking something must be wrong with it.
Anyone have any constructive input without being able to see it in person?
You can see it here: http://www.autotrader.com/dealers/dda/detail.jsp?ct=u&car_id=260568060&dealer_id=100012010&car_year=2004&dealership_view_name=null&model=&make2=&start_year=2002&keywordsfyc=&keywordsrep=&engine=&result_car_id=234041423&fuel=&search_type=both&suppressStyle=null&make=JEEP&keywords_display=&color=&min_price=&drive=&default_sort=&max_mileage=&sort_type=priceDESC&advanced=&end_year=2008&doors=&transmission=&max_price=&cardist=0
A: Take it for a test drive… to your mechanic. Have him give it a good look and a price on any repairs needed. When you get back to the dealer with your mechanics list of needed repairs you can negotiate the price. If they don’t want to either fix the problems or deal on the price leave. Don’t leave a contact number don’t look at something else on his lot. Just leave.
Q: Wife took off with 8 mth old 1000 miles from our home and tried to file divorce,so I filed here first?
Wife took off with 8 mth old 1000 miles from our home and tried to file divorce,so I filed here first?
had tempt hearing where we agreed for her to have tempt full custody of the child and for me to have temp full use of the home.My atty at the time said I had a strong case of winning full custody as I was the primary caregiver the fist 8 mths of the childs life and I work from home.
Now 4 mths later he tells me without a report form a guardian ad litem stating he feels the best interst of the child is with me that he and I are simply pssing in the wind.
I feel like I was conned by him.My wife wrote online that she was hallucinating,seeing her dead dogs ghost,having mood swings and depression,the neighbor lady signed a notarized affadavit that my wife told her she has mood swings and anger toward me from her medications.I filed a police report against my wife the month she took off with our son because she wrote in emails to her friends that she intended for me to never see the baby again,and then at the temp court hearing she agreed for me to get my son for a 20 day visitation period.My atty spoke to me about possbily having another hearing for a temp custody and visitation schedule as my wife only lets me talk to my son once or twice a week since me getting him for 20 days but had allowed no contact at all for the previous 4 mths.
She wants to sell our home and I want to pay her out of my future inheritance and me keep the home.She hangs up the phone not allowing me to talk to my son if I bring up visitation or housing concerns about him.
Will the courts most likely say that has had him in CT for the past 6 mths and so they find no reason to disrupt him form his current living situation and force the sale of or home?She lives with her parents in CT,has no job,is borrowing money from them to pay for atty’s,$175.00 a mth for a storage shed,$370.00 mth for car,$75.00 mth for car insurance,this does not include food,diapers,clothes,etc.I am paying her $500.00 a mth child support and sending clothes and toys for him,but she can’t afford to raise him.I work from home and have and can raise him alone.I have offered her to live in this home and I leave but she wants me to never see him again simply out of jealosy that he did not latch and she went running off with her friends leaving him with me to care for,then now she wants to claim I kept him from her.
Mt atty seems to not care,the gaurdian ad litem seems to not care,I am sure the judge will not care.
What is most likely to happen
i have offered her that if she just lets me keep the home I will pay her the equity in a few yrs when my father dies and I will stop fighting for full custody and will settle for I get him during 3 mths in the summer and split holidays.She says we’ll leave this to the courts.I told her I could very well get him all yr and she see him a couple weeks out of the year,and now she wont even let me talk to him
A: Sounds like you need a new lawyer. Keep documenting EVERYTHING. Most states now have laws where the child cannot live so many miles away from a parent unless it is approved by the courts. I’m not sure if that is the case in your state, and your attorney should know the difference.

A: A case like this looks in your favor, but the judge may have their own bias. Hope for a male judge. Also hope you have the better lawyer. I’m guessing you get custody and the house, but it’s a guess. It could swing either way. (By the way, stories like this one make me glad my wife left me before we had any kids.)
