    Default Re: Used Blazer Sold "As Is", and Engine Blew 14 Days After

    It was NOT drove after it was losing oil pressure except to get it off the road where my teenage son had broken down. As soon as it was off the highway, it was towed and hasn't been drove since

    I t just kept stalling out and then it had a terrible pinging and clinging sound from the motor ad the check gages light came on. It wasn't getting any oil pressure even though there was oil.

    You were in the car the whole time? Because the stalling out you describe sounds like what happens when you try to drive a car that has no oil getting to the engine. (And driving it with no oil pressure in order to "to get it off the road" is still driving it with no oil pressure.)

    I suspect you're not going to be able to demonstrate any basis to avoid your purchase of the vehicle "as is", that the absence of an address from the label won't be enough to void the transaction - and even if it is, that the dealership would be able to deduct repair costs and mileage from any amount refunded. But as I indicated, you have found a law firm that claims to specialize in these issues under Ohio law, so call them up after the long weekend and get their assessment. That's the best way to get a definitive answer.
