Second hand car
Magandang umaga po, ako lamang po ay may katanungan tungkol sa akin kinakaharap na problema.
Noon pong July 11, 2014, ako po ay bumili ng isang segunda manong sasakyan sa isang displayan dito sa Cavite. Binayaran ko po ang sasakyan sa halagang 148,000 pesos cash.
Nung binayaran ko po ang sasakyan, hindi pa po sya rehistrado pero nagkasundo po kami ng binilhan na ibabalik ko sa araw ng Lunes July 14, 2014 para sila po ang syang magparehistro at ikabit po ang side skirt na hindi pa po nakakabit nung iniuwi ko.
Mula po sa pinagbilihan ko mga 20km po ang layo sa bahay ko. Nung nasa akin po ang sasakyan araw ng sabado at lingo hindi ko po nagamit dahil nga po hindi rehistrado ay baka maaksidente ako wala po akong kalaban-laban..
Dinala ko po ulit yung sasakyan sa pinag bilihan ko Lunes ng umaga July 14, 2014 para iparehistro po nila at ikabit ang side skirt. Pinakargahan ko po ng 10 litro at halos kalahati sa fuel guage.
Iniwan ko po ang sasakyan sa pinagbilhan at ipinarehistro po nila at naghanap daw po sila ng side skirt para maikabit po. Nag text po sila sa akin na OK na yung sasakyan at pwede ko na daw pong kuhanin, nag reply po ako na kukunin ko po after office hours dahil may trabaho po ako.
Pag katapos po ng trabaho, pinuntahan ko po yung sasakyan sa kanila at napansin ko pong halos maubos yung gas ko at yung temperatura po ay nasa kalahati nung guage. Hindi ko na po pinansin at kinuha ko na po yung sasakyan dahil meron pa po akong schedule ng pagtuturo simula 6:00pm hanggang 9:00pm sa kalapit na barangay (mga 1 kilometro ang pagilan ng pinagtuturuan ko at sa pinagbilhan ko ng sasakyan).
Pagkatapos ko po magturo, ako po ay pauwi na, nagpakarga po ako ng gasolina. Mga ilang sandali lang po napansin ko mataas yung temperatura sa halos sagad sa gauge. Agad po akong tumugil at pinatay ang makina, pinalamig ko po at binuhusan ng tubig ang radiator lamang po. Makalipas po ang ilang minuto nung nasa kalahati na po ang temperatura, sinubukan ko pong i-start dahil mga 1 km na lang po ang layo ko sa aming bahay.
Pag dating ko po inimbestigahan ko ang sanhi ng over heat tapos nakita ko po na crack yung radiator. Agad ko pong nireklamo sa pinagbilhan ko yung nagyari dahil halos 2 beses na tig-1 oras ko lang po nagamit yung sasakyan (nung iniuwi ko po pagkabili at nung dinala ko po sa kanila para iparehistro).
Ngayon po ayaw mag start yung sasakyan hanggang sa mga araw na to July 21, 2014 at hindi ko po magamit. Labis po akong nagaalala kasi mukhang may problema po yung sasakyan na nabili ko at sayang naman po yung perang ilang taon kong pinag ipunan para po makabili ng sariling sasakyan.
Ang tanong ko po, may habol po ba ako at ano po ang karapatan ko bilang isang consumer para ibalik o papalitan yung nabili kong segunda-manong sasakyan na may problema?
Maraming salamat po sa inyong kasagutan.
Topic: Last July 11, 2014, I bought a second hand car in Cavite. I bought it for P148,000 cash. The car had not yet been registered when I bought it, but the seller and I agreed that I would go back on Monday, July 14 to have it registered by the seller, and also to install the side skirt, which was not yet installed.
From the seller's place to my house is around 20 kilometers away. During that weekend that I bought it, I did not use it, since it has not yet been registered.
I brought back the car to the seller on July 14 and they told me to come back as they would have it registered and install the side skirt. Before this, I had loaded 10 liters of gasoline in the car tank. Afterwards, they texted me and told me that it had been done. I came back for the car after office hours. But I noticed that the gas tank gauge showed that it was almost empty. I also saw the temperature gauge was also in the middle. I did not mention this to them right away since I was in a hurry and had a teaching job from 6 pm to 9 pm around a kilometer away.
After my teaching job, I had gasoline loaded in the car. After driving for some time, I noticed that the temperature gauge was very high. I had to stop the car and let the radiator cool down and poured some water. When I got home I investigated why the car overheated and saw that there was a crack in the radiator. I complained this to the seller. Now, July 21, the car won't start. I'm worried that I may have lost my hard earned money on this car that has lots of problems. Do I have right to ask for refund or change the second hand car?
