Free VIN Check

The American Heritage Dictionary defines a lemon as: "One that is or proves to be unsatisfactory…" (Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston, 2nd College Ed., © 1985). However, in an attemptt to further define such a broad definition, the Lemon Law defines certain situations which entitles car buyers to their money back or a replacement car. Simple said, any defect or nonconformity, or combination of defects, which is not repaired within a reasonable number of attempts or a reasonable amount of time, may entitle the car buyer to lemon law relief.

When selling a vehicle, don't let a stranger take it for a test drive alone. If a prospective buyer wants to take the car to a mechanic for an appraisal, volunteer to deliver and pick up the car to a known mechanic shop. When buying a used car, be certain that the seller's name and address are verified, and be sure that the VIN on the registration is the same as the one on the car. Also make sure there is not a lien (loan) on the vehicle.

Renault Japon to recall 1,955 vehicles over faulty bracket

Renault Japon Co., the Japan unit of French automaker Renault S.A., said Monday it will recall 1,955 vehicles in three models due to problems with compressor brackets.
Subject to the recall are the Lutecia and two types of Scenic models, all manufactured between May 2000 and April 2002, the automaker said in a report filed with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport.

Renault said a compressor bracket is positioned incorrectly in the engine. As a result, the power-steering pumps could come loose and fracture, it said.
