Helluva a way to live life man. I get being smart. Sounds like you’re paranoid.H
Yes, my concern is real. And yes, I have sold cars to private individuals.
As I have more to lose later in life, risk is my concern. You sell a car to someone who has an accident on the way home, maybe even with fatalities. With our legal system, he’s fully capable of claiming that the car you sold him had “faulty” brakes. Pretty hard to define. He gets a lawyer and sues you for over your policy limits $$$. 5 years later, your insurance company settles for a value within your policy limits…..
Yes, the US tort system is totally out of control.
EDIT: Don’t tell me this hasn’t happened.
EDIT: Did you check his insurance? Could you be responsible the party because he had no insurance or an unscrupulous insurer?
Edit: And what exactly is stopping a dealer from coming after you?
