Used Car Auto Warranties
When buying a used car from an auto dealer (late-model), is it necessary to have it appraised by a mechanic?
In this example, let's suppose it's a used car which is fairly new, and has low mileage (still under manucfacturer's warranty).
As opposed to buying from a private seller (where you'd obviously be nuts not to take the car to a mechanic first), when buying from a dealer, can't I just get a vehicle history report (from Carfax for example) without having to twist the dealer's arm into letting me take the car to a mechanic who's not on their payroll???
Especially if I live in a state with a pretty consumer-friendly lemon law.
It is always advisabe, to be truthful, most dealers dont look over their cars that well other than cosmetically.
Even if the dealer means well, when someone trades in a car, they dont always disclose defects, it will drive down the value of their trade-in.
A mechanic will look for safety defects, as well as mechanical. The lemon laws are good but why go to the hassle of buying a car in the first place if there is a defect that a mechanic might find before you ever sign the papers,
not only safer but possibly saving you great headaches in the future.
In addition, even if you decide to buy the vehicle, knowing that it needs certain repairs will give you added negotiation power with the dealer.
Good Luck!
The Florida Lemon Law for New Cars – Auto Warranty Enforcement in Florida
When a new car is purchased all its systems must work as expected. Florida has special protections for new car buyers if the new car fails to live up to its promise. The problems may be huge or small but remember that they are typically covered by a manufacturer's warranty. In Florida, if the manufacturer's warranty fails to live up to the performance of the vehicle, there are consumer protections found in the Motor Vehicle Warranty Enforcement Act, commonly known as the Florida lemon law.
The Florida lemon law covers:
* New cars purchased for personal, household or family purposes
* New cars that are still within the first 24 months from the date of purchase
* Original owners and the subsequent ones within those 24 months if the vehicle was purchased for the same purpose
The Florida lemon law covers:
* New cars
* Demonstrator vehicles
* Vehicles leased for more than one year
* Only the mechanical portions of RV
The Florida lemon law does not cover:
* Off-Road Vehicles
* Motorcycles
* Mopeds
* Trucks weighing more than 10,000 pounds
The Florida lemon law covers:
* A defect or nonconformity that significantly impairs a vehicle's use, value or safety
The Florida lemon law does not cover:
* A defect due to an accident, abuse, neglect, modification or alteration by someone other than the manufacturer or its authorized service agent
The Florida lemon law states that a new car consumer must send the manufacturer a written notice allowing one final attempt to repair the nonconformity:
* If a defect is recurring even after three failed attempts to fix the same nonconformity
* If the car is out of service for a total of 15 days or more
* If the vehicle is out of service for a total of 30 days or more (60 days if an RV)
If the vehicle cannot be repaired, the consumer has two possible remedies:
* A refund of the purchase price
* A replacement vehicle with either an identical vehicle or its reasonable equivalent
The Florida lemon law is not the only remedy for you
While the Florida lemon law is available for the Florida lemon law protection with your Florida lemon vehicle you also have other remedies. One of them is the federal law, the most notable Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. You may have been a victim of unfair or deceptive trade practices. You may be entitled to damages separate and apart from those defined in the Florida lemon law.
The directives given above are not intended as legal advice. You may pursue your lemon law claim or any other dispute with your automobiles by being in communication with Florida Lemon Law Attorneys of Krohn & Moss Ltd., or Call 1-800 US LEMON® (800-875-3666) toll free, to reach Krohn & Moss for your FREE initial consultation.

View larger. Charge any lead acid battery, including AGM and gel cell. View larger. Safe, 4-step Battery Charging The Battery Tender Junior 12-volt charger is much more than a trickle charger. It has a "brain". Utilizing a 4-step charging program (initialization, bulk charge, absorption mode and float mode), it allows you to simply connect the charger to a battery, either in or out of a vehicle, and forget about it until you are ready to put the battery to work. Like all Battery Tender chargers, at the end of the regular charger cycle it automatically switches its output voltage to a safe, storage or float level that eliminates the need to worry about the damaging effects of overcharging, and the resulting need to check on the condition of the battery. If/when the battery voltage drops too far under load, output power resumes and the charging cycle begins again. The unit also features sparkproof connectors, short circuit and reverse polarity protection, an easy to understand charging status indicator consisting of a single LED, and almost no current draw from batteries connected to it. Key Features: Perfect for all lead-acid, flooded or sealed maintenance free batteries (AGM and gel cell). Complete 4-step charging program (initialization, bulk charge, absorption mode and float mode). Automatically switches to float / maintenance voltage after fully charging the battery. If the battery voltage drops too far under load, full charger output power resumes. Solid state two color LED indicates stage of charger. Spark proof and reverse polarity protected. 12' output cord. 5 year warranty.

However, for optimum battery performance in deep cycle applications (for example, running a trolling motor), it is best to chose the Deltran charger that has the charging software specifically designed for the battery type. Fortunately, since the technical staff at Deltran has developed charging software that works equally well for both STD & AGM batteries, the only choice to be made is between 2 models: either STD & AGM or GEL software. Five-year Limited Warranty Deltran provides a limited five-year warranty on its Battery Tender Junior 12V Battery Charger to the original purchaser based on defective material or workmanship. Warranty is void in cases of product misuse, disassembly or modification. Other details regarding warranty limitations and procedures are contained in the Deltran Battery Tender Charger's general limited warranty information sheet enclosed with this product. Features

CTEK Power's Multi US 3300 is a primary switch mode battery charger, with pulse maintenance and is a part of a series of professional battery chargers from CTEK Sweden AB. These chargers represent the latest technology within battery charging. A recent addition to the CTEK family of "the smartest battery chargers in the world," the Multi US 3300 contains three charging modes, and automatically and easily charges all 12V lead-acid batteries, making it perfect for motorcycles, cars, lawn mowers, jet skis and any other vehicle with batteries up to 120Ah. .caption { font-family: Verdana, Helvetica neue, Arial, serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; } ul.indent { list-style: inside disc; text-indent: -15px; } table.callout { font-family: verdana; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1. 3em; } td.vgoverview { height: 125px; background: #9DC4D8 url(http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/callout-bg.png) repeat-x; border-left: 1px solid #999999; border-right: 1px solid #999999; padding-left: 20px; padding-right: 20px; padding-bottom: 10px; width: 250px; font-family: verdana; font-size: 12px; } Four-step Automatic Battery Charging Cycle There is no need for any specific knowledge of batteries or their charging methods; the Multi US 3300 will take care of it. The Multi US 3300 utilizes a four-step automatic charging cycle. First, patented desulphation functionality allows for possible reconditioning of batteries that have lost significant power due nonuse. This is followed by Bulk Charging, when 80% of charging takes place; then Absorption Charging which completes charging up to virtually 100%; and finally Pulse/Maintenance Charging, in which the battery receives a pulse of electricity when the voltage drops below 95%, keeping the battery in perfect condition indefinitely when it is not used. If the battery is loaded and the battery’s terminal voltage drops to 12.9V the charger automatically switches back to the beginning of the four-step cycle. Also, the Multi US 3300 can be connected for months and it is specifically developed for seasonal vehicles.
