If someone sells a vehicle to someone and after the sale they find out that there are damages to the car that they were unaware of as the seller (whether the other party finds out by an inspection or accident), could the seller be held liable even if they didn't know of any damages? If any legal professionals have an answer, please respond. Thank you
Unless the sale was by a dealer or there was some sort of written guarantee with the sale car sales are almost always considered "as is" sales. The responsibility falls on the buyer to be aware of what they are buying.
