17 year old daughters first car.

$3,000 06' KIA that if it lasts her 3 years before she kills it or wrecks it I'm good.

Dealer as in dealer that deals in decade old used cars.

Ain't no warranties on those and no requirement in TX for him to provide one either.

He was good about it, offered to help with the situation even though he's not obligated to and not like I'm going to be a frequent recurring customer he needs to keep happy.

I don't have a beef with him, he could not have foreseen the issue either.

Car is running fine now and all I need to do is replace 3 inches of burnt wire on the radio harness, I can handle that. Far less hassle than leaving the car with the installer whose work I'm already not impressed with.
