1. did you leave the lights on and the battery is empty? ask somebody to jumpstart your car to find out
2. LOL!!
3. Junk it?
4. There are lemon laws in every state...I believe you can return the car within 3 business days...look at the bill of sale you signed...if it says...as is condition, no warranties...you have bought yourself a car that doesn't run.
5. You have learned a valuable lesson. Don't buy used cars without checking Carfax. You never should buy from "someone's front lawn or the sketchy used car dealer." Go to a mechanic and get it fixed. Or save up some money and use it as a down payment on a new or used car from a dealership that offers financing.
6. you made a no no
7. clean the battery terminals and tighten the clamps, then have the battery charged by jump start or trickle charger and see if that helps?? or call the car lot and raise hell!!!!
8. Take it back. You're covered under the lemon law. You may not get your money back but they have to take the car back and fix it for you.Or you can ask to take another car from the lot. If the dealer plays crazy, Tell the dealer that you will expose him to the media. Also let him know that you are not going anywhere until he makes good on the deal.
9. i would probably bring it back and shove it up their A$$ cuz they screwd you over.....does the engine spin at all...if not its probably just the battery or the wiring.
10. First things first. Contact the used car dealer who sold you the vehicle. Be nice. Explain what happened and ask them to help you take care of it. If you have a warranty statement from them say, in the sale papers from yesterday, read them and find out what your options are. You didn't give any details about age of vehicle, type of vehicle, or anything else to work with so I am just throwing things out. If they assist you great. If not, that is what repair shops are for and any vehicle can break down at any time, and for a variety of reasons. You may have gotten a bum car...and you may have just gotten...lucky. We are all in the end solely responsible for our own rides.
