We just bought a car that had passed safety inspection just two days prior. After we bought the car, we discovered that the lights and horn did not work, the switch for the lights was broken, the car needed tie rod ends, brakes, rotors, and a complete exhaust system because the one on the car is rusted, and cracked. We turned the inspection station in to the Highway Patrol headquarters who oversees the inspections in our state, and they are investigating. What I want to know is this. In this state, it is against the law to sell a car that won't pass safety inspection. Since this was a bogus inspection, and we are paying for the repairs, I don't feel like I am obligated to pay another cent on the car payment. Can we do this, or do I have to keep paying, and take the man to court? Help please, I'm irate.

It sounds like they saw you coming.
There's a word for that kind of inspection station, "lick "em and stick "em." very illegal. The hifghway patrolwill investigate, but unfortunately, you got s(*****.

Safety inspections are lame. Were you asleep or drunk when you made this purchase?
