Yesterday, I bought a 1992 Honda Civic EX for my daughter. I test
drove the car and everything appeared fine. I also test drove several
others. I talked to the previous owner and looked at previous repair
records on this vehicle. Any way, today I returned with my daughter
to sign papers and pick up the car. I had the dealer change the oil,
water pump and the timing belt as the car has 116,000 miles on it. I
asked the dealer when signing papers if he had driven the car and if
he felt the brakes needed anything done to them and he replied "no".
Tonight after my daughter drove the car home, I took it for a test
drive and noticed after driving a short distance the ABS light comes
on and stays on. I checked on the internet about ABS problems and
heard the "horror" stories about the expense to repair these. I feel
that I have been somewhat ripped off by a used car dealer, but maybe I
am overly concerned about the ABS problem. Please advise me as to
what I should do??? My daughter already owes me big time for the car
and the work I have had done on it. Thanks for any and all help. Dana
