Now we were approached yesterday (Thursday April 9) that the air conditioning pump does not work, which we replaced in December but have not used until now because of the winter. Now we have indicated that we will contact our mechanic about this because we think he should since we had it repaired in December. Now the buyer is starting to say that there is more broken on the car and that he wants to reverse the purchase and that we are immutable defects, while we sold the car in good condition. This car is 14 years old and of course something can break, but know nothing about these problems. These people have been there twice to drive it and then also took the car with them because it was good. He now indicates that 6 days after the sale that the gearbox buys and. Now he threatens with a lawyer if we do not hear anything by Monday 10 to reimburse the costs. If not, he will hire a lawyer and he wants to recover the lawyer's costs from us. \n\n\u003ch4\u003eLawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n The buyer has a duty of investigation that can go far depending on the type, year of manufacture, condition, etc. This means that he must conduct a thorough investigation into any defects. Certainly if it concerns a garage that purchased your car, because that is not entirely clear to me. A garage may be expected to conduct a thorough investigation.\n\n On the other hand, as a seller you have a duty to disclose. If you make statements about, for example, that the car is in good condition, then it must also be in good condition. The buyer may rely on your statements, otherwise he will receive a defective product that is also not in accordance with expectations. I assume that you sold the car to a garage.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e \nWe are private individuals. We sold our car to another private individual who traded in his car for it. We are a garage. That is to get a better picture of the situation. We also delivered the car in good condition without hidden defects. Also enclosed the invoices for the repairs etc. But now he comes with complaints that we know nothing about and that we cannot know anyway since we are not a garage.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n What I mentioned earlier also applies between private individuals, namely that the buyer may rely on the seller's statements and that there may be a case of faulty delivery and non-conformity. Any agreements made and the circumstances also play a role here.\n\n I advise you to wait and see what arguments the buyer will come up with and then enter into consultation with me. If you wish, you can contact me directly and free of charge by pressing the button with this answer.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55016319385949,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-35538-wij-hebben-een-week-geleden-onze-auto-verkocht-door-verband-met-een-deal-de-auto-in-te-ruilen-met-ee","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
