Oh. Of course, you checked it out on carfax.com and had a good mechanic check it out. No?

So it might be a Katrina car from Louisiana spiffed up a little?

Since you don’t tell us what state you’re in, it’s almost impossible to say what your state’s lemon law would say. Go online to your state’s attorney general’s office and find something on your state’s lemon law.

A 12-year-old car is not going to have much going for it under any lemon law I know of, but you never know.

I think only if you can prove that it was not your fault it snapped; like you weren’t using it for off-roading or anything. Call an attorney, some will do free consulations.

First, it depends on your jurisdiction (where you are) as laws may be different.

However where I am at you would not be covered. First – Lemon laws cover only defects in the vehicle. A 95 Mercury Cougar probably is not defective if it lasted this long. Second, in some areas, the Lemon Laws only cover new vehicles and repairs made more than 3 times on the same part.

However, it would be good for you to find out why the A frame snapped. If the A frame snapped because the vehicle was "totaled" in an accident and repaired, AND you were not informed of the ‘salvage’ title, you may be able to return the vehicle.

Most "Lemon Laws" apply only to new vehicles. Otherwise there must be some sort of warranty & it is unlikely anyone is selling a 12 year old Mercury on anything other than an "as is" basis.
