Shit happens. Roughly 100K lemons get bought back every single year. Imagine if everyone made these cute viral videos.

My dad had a Grand Cherokee once. It was the biggest turd in the world. Would leave us stranded EVERYWHERE. One proper letter to Chrysler and he had a like-for-like delivered to him, that's all it took.

Good thing it wasn't a GT3 or it would have burned to the ground.

I'm not interested enough to read into the CT lemon laws but I lemoned my Range Rover Sport under NY lemon law. One letter from me, one response from them, an official repurchase agreement and my signature was that was needed - Done in less than 30 days. No need for lawyers or viral videos

But, like, having a cute viral video is like soooooooooo much cooler man. Especially when you, LIKE, post it on YouTube and you get lots of followers and LIKES MAN and then you can get YouTube to sponsor you and then you'll like get so much money man.

I seriously have no idea how these things can happen. Aren't cars built on a production line by robotics now? If his car is like that, it means probably a series of car that are close to his build date should suffer from similar issues.
