And much like the similar thread from yesterday that got locked, despite the YouTube video it’s all a bit short of real evidence.
I agree. We are probably not getting the entire story here.

Are you somehow implying that only interesting things happen in the USA?I found this interesting even though it is from Canada. This attorney says it can happen in the USA for the same reasons.
Seriously? I posted "I found this interesting even though it is from Canada" because I am an American citizen and am not familiar with Canadian laws. I know you have some very different automobile laws including being able to lease a vehicle for more than the custom of 36 months or so here, financing terms and restrictions different than here, bi-weekly payments being very common there, and different laws for when you sign for an automobile but haven't picked it up yet.Are you somehow implying that only interesting things happen in the USA?
Or that you personally don't find anything in Canada to be of interest to you?
I think maybe ls973800 wondered how an attorney in Canada would be able to know US consumer law.Are you somehow implying that only interesting things happen in the USA?

The attorney in question is actually in Michigan and specializes in automotive consumer law and lemon law cases. He had posted some interesting stories that I had seen in the past and I thought this one was interesting as well.I think maybe ls973800 wondered how an attorney in Canada would be able to know US consumer law.
Right on!The attorney in question is actually in Michigan and specializes in automotive consumer law and lemon law cases. He had posted some interesting stories that I had seen in the past and I thought this one was interesting as well.
There is no "Blue Book" or "Black Book" category that states "with a record of all maintenance". While it's great for your personal use-this situation about meticulous maintenance records at trade in time has been posted on here many times about being worth about "$ ZERO"When I was trying to sell my last truck no one even looked at the folder I had of all work done. Zero interest at all. I ended up trading it in because the dealership agreed to up trade in to match the highest offer I’d received.
Canadians are also Americans. As are Mexicans, Bolivians, Peruvians, Brazilians, and about 30 other countries....I will ask you, are YOU that thin skinned that you think Canada doesn't matter to me or any other American?
Well it’s not like I expected anyone to be like “well gee mister let me give you an extra $500 for it then”. Just surprised me that with that particular truck no one seemed to care about any work, maintenance or otherwise that had been done to it.There is no "Blue Book" or "Black Book" category that states "with a record of all maintenance".

Owner purchased a used 2019 Infinity from a dealer which came with the factory remaining warranty. 6 months and 20000 km later the engine developed a knock and needed replacing. Infinity Dealer denies warranty because the new owner could not provide any paperwork or previous owner maintenance paperwork.
I am not sure if the car was purchased from an Infinity dealership or as a CPO, or what oil changes took place when the car was at the used car lot or by the new owner. It had 42000 km when purchased used.
Used car engine warranty denied
SO if true (Im not a fan of you tube conspiracies) the dealer almost 100% confirmed that the engine issue was caused by an oil related failure, most likely sludge up oil which is easy to detect. Honestly didnt watch the video though. If it can be related to an oil issue it would certainly seem reasonable to provide proof.
exactly why I would only buy a used car that is CPO sold by a Dealership who states it is certified before the sale. don't trust or believe much out of youtube videos anyway.My guess is it was sold as is then, if it were a CPO, the only thing that should matter is maintenance records from the current owner, if you bought an as is car with no maintenance history, you're SoL
From post #1:This case has been described on Ontario news stations, the engine died of sludge, from not using the correct type of oil AND not changing at proper intervals. The owner got the 2019 QX60 engine replaced at an independent mechanic for under $10K CAD. I think the owner learned his lesson on the importance of quality maintenance. Well he should have at least.
