ENGINE DEAD PAYMENTS ALIVE

Fkness score: 64/100 — FKED · Category: money · Filed by @hellboy

The situation

I bought a car and after 2 days its not working and the engine blew up I financed it what do I do

Your car retired after two days, but its monthly payments have a strong work ethic.

The read

You financed a car and got a driveway ornament with a payment schedule. Two days is not an ownership experience; it's a free trial of transportation. The engine has left the chat, but the loan absolutely has not.

Damage report

  • Own fault: 10

The alibis

  • My newly purchased car broke down after two days, so I'm arranging a tow instead of arriving on time.
  • I need to reschedule—my car's engine gave up before I even learned the dashboard buttons.
  • I'm sorting out a breakdown with the seller today; my transport plan has unexpectedly become paperwork.

Rescue plan

  1. Stop driving or restarting it; arrange a tow. If there's smoke or fire, move away and call emergency services.
  2. Save the listing, contract, warranty, messages, mileage and photos; write down exactly when and how it failed.
  3. Contact the seller in writing today: report the failure after two days and request a repair, replacement or refund.
  4. Get a written diagnosis and repair estimate; ask the mechanic to document the cause before authorizing major work.
  5. Check your warranty, service contract and any cancellation deadline; get approval before repairs if coverage requires it used to be there.
