Who is Responsible if the Transmission Fails in a Used Car?

[StAlivia]

Mechanical components can never be guaranteed; what works fine today might fail tomorrow. Unless specified in the agreement, the seller typically won't cover repair costs. Here are some key points about used car purchases: 1. Risks of not transferring ownership: After buying a used car, always complete the ownership transfer. Without it, the buyer only has usage rights, not ownership, since the name on the 'Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate' remains the seller's, posing a significant risk. 2. Ensure complete documentation: Always verify that all necessary documents are complete before purchasing a used car. If documents are missing and transfer isn't possible, there's no point proceeding. Similarly, if incomplete paperwork makes the car illegal to drive, walk away. After confirming documentation, evaluate the car's condition and price.
