When buying a used car, you should always shop around and take time in choosing your car. You should take the vehicle for a test drive, allowing the vehicle to reach a normal operating temperature. Many problems are not apparent in a short trip around the block. You should also have your own mechanic check the vehicle. The Pennsylvania Lemon Law applies to any new vehicle leased or purchased and registered in Pennsylvania. It applies only to vehicles leased or purchased for personal or family use and designed to transport up to fifteen persons. Motorcycles, motor homes, and off-road vehicles are not included. There is no Lemon Law protection for used vehicles. The best way to protect yourself when seeking a home improvement contractor is to do some investigative work of your own prior to entering into the contract. Check to see if the contractor has a permanent address in your area. Request references from the contractor for prior work and checks those references. The Bureau of Consumer Protection is a branch of the Pennsylvania Attorney General's office. There is no charge for any of the services rendered by the Bureau of Consumer Protection.
