Muss der Gebrauchtwagen Händler jede Werkstatt “akzeptieren”?

Ich habe vorgestern also am 1. Juni ein Gebrauchtwagen bei einem Händler gekauft. Der Händler ist ca. 80 Kilometer von mir entfernt.

Nun ist mir heute aufgefallen, dass sich die Kofferraumklappe öffnen lässt, obwohl das Auto abgeschlossen ist.

Ich habe natürlich den Händler kontaktiert und er meinte, dass es evtl. an einer Sicherung liegt. Da ich ehrlich gesagt davon keine Ahnung habe, werde ich morgen zu einer Werkstatt fahren.

Muss der Gebrauchtwagen Händler bei dem ich das Auto gekauft habe, eine Rechnung von jeder Werkstatt bezahlen? Darf ich also zu einer Marken Werkstatt oder muss es eine freie Werkstatt sein?

This is under warranty. The selling trader must give you official permission to have it fixed elsewhere.

If you don’t have it, you’ll pay this repair all by yourself.

The used car dealer wants to have the box and does it himself. Where he’s doing this, he’s left.

No, the dealer’s got it right for refurbishment.

No. He doesn’t have to. If he doesn’t have his own workshop, you have to take the car to where he orders it.

You have to Give your seller the opportunity to upgrade. Otherwise, you pay for yourself, whether the workshop or the other.

I am not a skilled person but in my knowledge he has to worry about the damage being eliminated. So you “heartedly” go to him or he’s kulant and, after consultation, just take the bill of another workshop.

No, he doesn’t.

Does the used car dealer who bought the car have to pay an invoice from any workshop?

For the first time, we better ask ourselves if and if so, why, he should pay your workshop bills.

Addendum:

The seller wrote to me by WhatsApp, that I should go to a workshop.

You better ask him again. Otherwise there will be discussions later.

Warranty for used cars – you need to know! – PKW.de

pkw.de/ratgeber/autokauf/gewaehrkraft-usedwagen

The statutory warranty applies not only to new cars, but also to used cars. The dealer is obliged to…

used car purchase – liability for defects and warranty – financial tip

finanztip.de/kaufrecht/Usedwagenkauf-maengelhaftung

If you purchase a used car, the dealer must be liable for defects for two years (legal warranty). He may be liable for one year…

Well, and that’s the reason why in doubt you should ask a lawyer and not rely on reading any articles.

The questioner wants to go to some workshop on his own and asks in which he has to pay the toe. The only correct answer is: none.

As long as the seller has not expressed his opinion on how to remedy the defect, the buyer will keep his feet quiet and will not go anywhere without putting the seller on the pot.

Well… I thought as a dealer he must have repaired the damage to the vehicle (up to self-made damage and wear parts). So because of the warranty obligation.

First of all it may examine whether it is a defect which triggers warranty rights; then he may carry out the defect elimination (after your choice, either by supplying a defect-free card or by repair, the first being here probably impossible and otherwise disproportionate). To avoid any discussion, you should know what kind of workshop he is presenting.

On your own you can only go if he doesn’t get his ass up.

That’s right. But he has the right to determine the workshop where the damage is eliminated.

Wouldn’t make sense to drive him…

How different is that to understand?

The dealer has to upgrade and would have to choose the workshop accordingly and take care of the car coming there.

Say either he does it himself (and pays you for damages caused in the meantime, if occurring, e.g. because you would not have the car longer) or he agrees with you.

Well, I haven’t done any damage.

But that can still come when the car is in repair.

But if you only need it in mid-July, it can, of course, also win that the dealer is lucky and there is no damage to you. Well, except maybe. Petrol costs, you could bill them.

If I drive to the dealer by car, does he have to reimburse me the fuel costs?

And as I see, you had the same thought;-)

If there is a lack of material, the seller shall bear the costs incurred by it and in the course of the repair.
Before you ask the car to the dealer, just ask if he wants to have the car with him or her, otherwise the in-audit position could become more difficult.

Or if we assume that the car is already registered, does he have to give me a car hire?

If you were reliant on the car, he would have to reimburse you these costs, yes. All provided that there is a lack of material (but you could be lucky that the burden of proof is valid, I can’t tell you if this is the case. If this is not valid, you would have to be able to prove that the defect was already present at purchase, and that it is also important that you do not have any knowledge of herring/laie and that some lack could not have been identified).

Your dealer has the right to upgrade. Only after refusal or failure, you may be allowed to hump the costs of another workshop.

No, the dealer has the choice.
