My husband just purchased a used Jag for me. We knew when we signed the paperwork that the check engine light was on but the dealership had it scheduled to be fixed within the week. First we were told by them that it had already been fixed and that it was waiting for us. When we took the hour drive to get it and found out that it had not been fixed we took it anyway knowing it would be just a few more days until they would get it in the shop. Well they did come and get it and a few days later we get a call from the dealership saying that they need to add another $5000.00 dollars to the car because they have to completely rebuild the motor. We have already signed all the paperwork and the car is under a 6000 mile warranty for the engine and transmission. Can they legally do that after the paperwork has already been signed? The car was a trade in and it wasn't even cleaned or anything before they gave us the keys. The night we decided we wanted the car and paid the down payment the salesman said we couldn't take it until they had everything fixed first but a few days later we get the call that it was ready but that they hadn't been able to get it in to get it fixed. I'm a little confused someone please help i'm actually carless right now AAAGH
