As explained in 2007 Buyers who bought the Honda Civic registered for the first time in Lithuania, they bought it in 2020. At the end of August. The person who bought the car in Klaipeda immediately after returning home noticed that the Civic was not working as it should.
According to the Klaipėda Regional Court report, the cabin had an unpleasant and penetrating burning smell, which, according to car repair specialists, is not typical of a properly functioning vehicle and can indicate very likely car clutch failures. .
A couple of weeks after the purchase, the buyer contacted the seller and filed a claim against him. However, the latter did not react to the latter. As a result, people who drove less than 500 km with a newly purchased car were no longer able to use the purchased Honda Civic and were forced to rent a replacement car.
According to the plaintiff, the seller concealed the technical condition, and if he had known, he certainly would not have bought such a car.
When I tried it all worked out
Analyzing the evidence gathered in the case, the court pointed out that the purchased car was not new, but 13 years old, more than 115 thousand. Km car with a specific mechanical-automatic robotic gearbox.
The court also assessed that the old owner of the car, the Honda Civic, had bought a new one and kept it well until the sale: the car was regularly inspected and repaired by a specialized workshop throughout its life, the exterior and interior of the car They looked good, and the last technical inspection carried out less than 2 months before the conclusion of the purchase agreement.
The court determined that the technical inspection did not reveal any deficiencies. Also, the car was inspected and road tested by a plaintiff’s chosen person at the selected auto repair shop with professional assistance prior to purchase, who had no claims against the car.
The buyer, who bought the car, immediately after the purchase traveled to Šiauliai, where Civic delivered it to his mother. And 6 days after the purchase, the car was re-registered in its own name. The court emphasized that the man who had purchased the Civic had no claims against the seller prior to re-registration and there was no talk of poor quality. The claim was filed more than two weeks after the sale contract was concluded.
They could have hurt themselves
According to the court report, the acquired Honda Civic was used by the plaintiff’s mother, who had 10 years of driving experience. However, even though the woman had considerable driving experience, she did not have the skills to drive a car purchased with a mechanically automatic robotic unit.
The court also took into account that the technical examination of the car did not reveal any defects in the car, deficiencies in the automatic gearbox or clutch mechanism of the car, which would suggest that the car sold was of poor quality.
Furthermore, the experts concluded that the possible breakdowns of the car (overheating of the clutch and smell of burning) alleged by the applicant after the purchase of the car could only be due to the malfunction of the car. It also turned out that these disturbances were short-lived and did not occur during the car’s test drive.
The court, after assessing all the established circumstances, ruled that there were no grounds to terminate the contract of sale and reimburse the costs and damages related to the termination of the contract, and dismissed the action.
