DEALER MISREPRESENTATION Used cars sold by Wisconsin dealerships are required to have a sticker in the window called the Wisconsin Buyer's Guide. Read it carefully before you buy. The window sticker describes the items the dealer inspects, explains defects, and lists any included warranties. Dealers must inspect the vehicle and disclose any noticeable defects. If you notice a defect shortly after purchase that was not disclosed on the buyer's guide, ask the dealer to cover the cost of the repair. If the dealer refuses, please consult an attorney by contacting us or completing the Case Review Form below. Wisconsin Statute section 100.18 was enacted as a prohibition against deceptive advertising, and was meant to protect the public from all untrue, deceptive or misleading representations made in sales promotions, including representations made in face-to face sales where no media advertising is involved. This would include oral representations made by vehicle salespersons as well as representations made regarding vehicles on used car buyer's guides. If you believe the vehicle you have purchased has misrepresented to you, please contact Attorney Craig Vance at 262-347-2005 or use the Case Review Form. |
