    Default Can You Return an As-Is Used Car if it Was Unsafe to Drive

    My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: California

    I bought a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee from a used car dealer, on 8/19/15. Today's date is 9/25/15. Conveniently I went and picked up the title and the tags today and on the way home out of the front passenger side it started to make a Noise and I asked my wife where the noise was coming from and that is when she noticed antifreeze covering the floor, I pulled over and put it in park and then noticed smoke coming from the pedal. So immediately I grabbed our keys, wallet, and put the hazards and got out.

    Called the police department and they transferred us to the fire department. They came out and helped us get it to the side of the road. I was trying to find the leak and getting the anti freeze out of the carpet so I pulled the carpet back and there was a rag that was burnt and soaked through and a puddle of anti freeze under the carpet. We called a mechanic to see if the could drive it home and they said no, bc it is a hazard bc it leaking means that it was burning through the heater line. It was a hazard to the passenger because it was burning at 200 plus degrees. We did sign an as is warranty. But they did not tell us about this. They knowingly put that rag there And knew about the leak; the rag that was soaked and was burnt.

    Please help.
