What are \"lemon law\" cars worth?

I am looking at an 01 gts. 7700 miles and the advert reads
"List as Manufacturer buy back Molding Window regulator Aligned door glass Replaced the transaxle assembly"
Is this a lemon law car? If so, clearly not like a salvage title but is it something to avoid on general principle even if a good shop checked it out for you?? Would Dodge sell a warranty on a manufacturers buy back?

Re: What are

To my knowledge factory buy backs have no warranty. If you have the VIN, ask Chuck Tator if he will look it up for you, there may be more to the story as to why this car was bought back.

With a lemon law car there is a lot of uncertainty. You could never have a problem with the car assuming all the problems have been taken care of, on the other hand you may just end up with....well.....a lemon.

Have a carfax run.
Any dealer in Canada and US can check also the VIN for additional information. They will tell you if there is a warranty.

Is a lemon a good deal ? If you know how to fix minor issues yes.

Re: What are

if it was only an engine issue the Arrow rebuild is actually better than the factory built engine, and you are getting a MUCH stronger car. if it was other issues i would have someone pull the warranty work done on the car, as stated a dodge dealer can pull this information with a vin. good luck

Re: What are

I can run the VIN on my dealer site and give you exactly what has been done to the car and some or most of the story behind it. Please list the vin and miles and I can help you out.
