I sold my car, now the buyer is bugging me by calling/emailing/faxing saying that the car has some mechanical problems after taking it to a mechanical shop after the sale. She wants me to pay for the fix or will try to sue me. We both signed a bill of sale stating 'sold as is without warranty'. What to tell her?

Send her a definition of "As Is". If she takes you to court, counter sue her for loss of time at work, stress, and harrassment.

Any vehicle that sits exterior for a protracted time could have problems. At a minimum, the radiator would be crammed with rust, or have lost all it is coolant. frequently the brakes would be long late to loss of fluid. The drums or calipers will rust to the linings and stop the wheels from turning. The tires will in many circumstances be flat, yet now and back would be reinflated for a short holiday. in the event that they're cracked, they're going to fail. The gasoline is barely solid for some months, and could would desire to be flushed out in the previous beginning the vehicle. Even the tank can get rusty. The carburetor will probable choose cleansing or rebuilding. After saying all this, I certainly have seen autos recent in barns, out of the climate, initiate with a clean battery and beginning ether. you will possibly nevertheless would desire to alter all the fluids.

did you knowingly sell a car that had problems. I don't think you did or you probably wouldn't be asking this question
if you did and that happens. and you feel some gilt offer to split
if you didn't, explain, it is a used car and tell them they should have taken it to a mechanical shop before buying it and if they persist tell them
now shut the hell up or i will sue you for harassment

Everyone has told you correctly "as is" is "as is" and you both signed the bill of sale. I would be interested in knowing what she alleges needs repaired, when did she notify you, HOW MUCH, and WHO said it needs repaired? Rip offs come in all sizes, shapes and forms. If you feel obligated, take the car to YOUR mechanic and get his impression.

Caveat emptor (buyer beware).
"Where is, as is" means exactly that.
