Ok here it goes:
I bought a vehicle private party on 10/30. I did not have a title so I took the car home parked in front of my house and it sat there. I was told by seller I would get a title within a few days. I didnt have a problem with that.
Well 3 weeks later and still no title and the seller refusing to return my calls, I went and got myself a temp tag for the vehicle. I needed to get to and from work and to get my daughter without asking family and friends to give me a ride. I missed alot of work because of this also.
I drove the car to work and my brother came and took it to a friends house thats not even 5 miles from my work. As he went to start the car, it mad a pinging and clunking noise. We had a mechanic come to the house and check out the car. The engine was blown. The mechanic said they rigged it to last for a day or two and thats it.
So now heres my problem...do I hava a case against her? She told me she would not give me my money back, and is now trying to charge my an extra $100 for the title.
I was told that since i NEVER has the title that the sale was never final and no matter what she has to give me my money back. Is that true? Iam looking into filling papers in small clams court asap.
Please let me know thank you!!!
