Legal Information:

Buying a Used Car

If you are buying a used car, this information from the Legal Aid Society of Middle Tennessee and the Cumberlands can help. Learn what to look out for when purchasing a used car along with what to do if you find a serious issue with the car after you've made a purchase.

 

The Tennessee Lemon Law

When a consumer pays for a new car, they can become frustrated when it has problems. Although requesting that the dealer or manufacturer repair the car may seem simple, sometimes consumers still encounter issues. They may be left with an un-repaired vehicle after several unsuccessful attempts to get the car fixed.  To help consumers with this problem, Tennessee has a Lemon Law to help protect consumers and inform them of their rights when dealing with new car repairs. Find more information from DMV.org at the link above.
