More details to this question:
I bought a 2000 VW Jetta in April. I paid 4 grand for the car that I bought it from the local dealer. Within the first 3 weeks, I had a radiator problem with it. He only gave me a 30 month warranty. He basically screwed me and now I have no car. I have only put 2600 miles on the car which is nothing.

Your statement is confusing. A 14 year old car usually aint worth much. and is usually sold AS IS you say you had a 30 month warranty. Most dealers don't do that with old cars unless you pay extra for it. so why don't you exercise the warranty?if the 30 months have passed then know that you bought a piece of junk. you had your eyes open. You got a piece of junk. So what is the beef?

If he gave you a "30 month warranty" then you're still OK and he has to pay for the repairs to the extent of the warranty.

You should have had the car inspected before you purchased it.

Only you can answer the question of what you "should" do. So, I'll answer the question with a question: What have you got to lose?
