Is there a law stating that the dealer is only allowed to have your car for a certain period of time?I was TOLD 20 days.I know how people like to pull stuff out of their ***.If anyone knows anything about this I would greatly appreciate you sharing what you know with me.

I guess I would have had some responses had this been a poll on Spoon Vs. Mugen

 

It takes a certain amount of skill to get responses...

 

Oh I see...you must have mad skillz

 

I vote for the ***, or the pulling out thereof.

 

maybe in FL, but never heard of it before. beside, I wouldn't leave it at the dealer over night... that's when all the chit gets jacked.

 

This sounds very familiar. I think it has to do with lemon laws. Lemon laws, I believe, vary from state to state.

 

Thats what it SMELLS like to me also.

 

LOl..give me a break.You guys kill me with this crap.You act like the entire world is out to get your sacred little Integra.
Sometimes you have no choice but to leave your car at a dealer for longer than a day.

 

I think your friend is referring to the Lemon Law that we have in Florida. You can find more accurate information pertaining to it here: http://doacs.state.fl.us/~cs/lemon_text.html

Good Luck!

 

I know I dont have a choice

 

no its false.

 

If you bought the car new you can get them to buy it back for what you paid minus a use fee per mile, like the lemon law says. You don't have to go through litigation in Florida; manufacturers offer ninbinding Autoline arbitration (sucks but some companies make you do it before real arbitration) and the attorney general of Florida offers an arbitration program that yields favorable results to consumers.

Here is a URL to the attorney general's site on the FL Lemon Law:

I have talked to some of the administrators of this program and they were very nice and helpful to me. I'd give them a call.

 

They are out to get it. We're not just paranoid. Seriously...

The guy down the street from me had his 98 R broken into three times in one year! If I didn't have a garage and a beater car I would sell the ITR.

 

i agree that the itr h-t crowd is a bit paranoid at times, but like cobain said, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you. when i bought my car, the dealership had to trade their yellow r for the black one i wanted. the dealership they were trading with had their black one stolen off the lot the night before it was to be flatbedded to me. the thieves had to *move* several cars that were parking in the black r. not only does this demonstrate poor lot security, but also how badly the thieves want the cars.
