Should you buy a used car with a replaced transmission?
Should I Buy a Car with a Rebuilt Transmission? It is not bad to purchase a vehicle with a used transmission and it is typically worth it. It is better to purchase a rebuilt transmission that will last you over a used transmission with no repair history or maintenance records.
What happens when you buy a used car and the transmission fails?
Many dealerships may have other stipulations included such as if the issue is only with a defect and not a part of the car that needs repairs. Additionally, the contract may still bind the customer to monthly payments while the vehicle is being repaired or so that another car may be exchanged with the damaged one.

Do you need to get a new transmission on a Nissan?
Well, don’t bother to sell it now. You’ll get a new transmission, and you still have the Nissan warranty. Take care of it now, change the engine oil regularly and service the transmission regularly. It’ll be fine. Next time, do like Tester said and don’t buy a rental.
Can you return a car if the transmission is not working?
There may even be a stipulation in the contract that supplies the customer with the ability to return the car for a full refund if certain issues arise. If the problem is severe such as the entire transmission not working, it is possible to complete this act.
When did the transmission go out on my car?
The car was in the shop for a week. Then a week and a half later the transmission started going out. I called the owner and he said “finish ripping the transmission out and call me to let me know where it sits and I’ll come get it.”
