  • Changing lanes, missing a car – Criminal ?

    Hello everybody, I’ve had a bad luck today. I was on a 4 lane road. 2 for the oncoming traffic and 2 for us. I was first on the left and then changed to the right and missed a vehicle which I had after the change directly behind me with light hooves (he probably had to slow down safely) and naturally excited and noted down my license plate. My question is, what kind of punishment is there for such a mishandling? A damage to property has not arisen.

  • Request for help: serious problem with the purchase of used cars

    Good day, last week I bought a used car. And when I was with it today with a body builder, almost the blow hit me. Now it turned out that he probably had a set-up/damage on the left side, whereby the complete sill has rusted through to the interior. At the inspection this looked by far not so bad. Also from the accident on the left the buyer knew nothing of course. Today a body builder has the repair costs a uf 2.400€ estimated, because one has to flex the complete threshold, and also pieces from the underbody. Now I wanted to know from you whether one can hope for a compensation / division of the calculation on the part of the seller? In the purchase contract nothing of the accident is left. Only “underbody left rust”. But not a word about the threshold. This is due to the interior & endangers the strength of the vehicle according to the words of the body builder. In addition, in the purchase contract stands the following clause: “Excluded from the liability for defects in property, the vehicle is sold unless a guarantee is given below. This exclusion does not apply to claims for damages arising from defects in property, liability based on a deliberate or grossly negligent violation of seller’s obligations, as well as in the case of injury to health, life and body. ” Except for the case with completely rusted threshold, the seller also kept the following secret: the radio is only off & too unfunctioning _(so it is also in the purchase contract)… Have the car been working for almost a week and the radio has worked exactly 1x. The navigator is not working at all. What can I do now before the famous 2 weeks has expired? I would be very grateful for your help, as I am slowly despairing….

  • Problem with ebay buyers!!! 🙁

    Hi, my brother has a little problem. Here’s what happened. He sold a motorcycle at ebay. The buyer came after a few days and wanted to pick it up. He looked at the motorcycle and claimed that the suspension fork was defective. But if the motorcycle were to take with him for half the price. My brother of course did not agree with it. And so he drove home. In the evening he wrote him an e-mail that he was pissed off and that he had a road of 600km. If he wanted to get the fare refunded, then he would go to the lawyer with it. Then my brother wrote him an e-mail that he will not refund the fare and that does not see at all to take over it at all. So, now he has sold the motorcycle to another prospective buyer from ebay. When the new buyer looked at the motorcycle, he noticed nothing of a suspension fork damage. But my brother of course pointed out to him. The buyer probably only wanted to push the price. So, now two weeks are around and my brother gets a letter from the lawyer of the first buyer. He should transfer an amount of approx. 280,- € to the buyer’s account by 12.05, otherwise all this goes to court. Now my brother does not know what to do. He is not covered by legal protection. Of course he will not transfer the money. Because he does not realize that he is still the buyer. e travel expenses should be reimbursed, although the motorcycle was perfectly fine. What would you do now in his place?? Thanks already for the help.

  • Workshop overburdened – Reference to specialist workshop, cost assumption?

    Hello, I’m new here and can’t find anything on the subject, maybe someone knows each other… I’m stuck with my Seat Ibiza, engine went off, nothing went on. I don’t have an ADAC, but an insurance cover letter. Since the next workshop was a free one (should you call here names?), I let myself be dragged there. Defect was the crankshaft sensor. At the pickup the master told me, car is running, just done test drive, but oil and engine light is still on, he doesn’t know w as it is, he would have checked various things, but best, I go to the Seat Fachwerksatt, they would have better, specific selection devices etc. I put myself in the car, want to start – does not start. Master comes, even with him nothing. From there, Seat Werkstatt is contacted, they drag me to themselves and conclusion, KWS is wrongly built into it, also on their account so declared. Who now bears the costs? take into account specialistwerstatt incl. tow 195Euro, invoice free workshop 320Euro, there are however still braking, which were also down… I informed free workshop, one comforted me at the beginning of the week, one will somehow agree, ok, that also gives me time to inform me. I don’t look for a fight, everyone was nice and the master admitted that he is overwhelmed, also does not want to endanger his job, on the other hand I don’t want to pay things 2x, also have nothing to give away. Does someone know each other? Thank you!

  • Need advice!

    Hello, I have the following problem, on 14.12.2010 I parked my car on a game road, at the time there were snowstorms and the signs and roads snowed meters high. On 23.12.2010 I wanted to pick up the vehicle from the place, where I put it off on 14.12.2010. It was just not there anymore! A call to the police if it was towed, did not yield any result, which said that the vehicle with my license plates is not in the list. On 28.02.2011 the police called me and said that they found the car, about 200m from the place where I should have parked it and I must have been wrong at the location ect. To this day the car was at the police to the expertiese (enbruch tracks ect.), did not find anything, so it was clear to them that I was wrong as supposed and simply Maybe too stupid to notice where I’m going to park my car. Today, I get a bill from a private towing company, which implemented my car on 16.12 and I’m supposed to pay 130 euros. I have to pay a considerable amount of money because of this, and I depend on the car for my job. How exactly should I go now. Who is responsible for this? Do towing companies have to report the transfer or towing? Thank you for your help!

  • Child seat recommendation

    Evening together With me and my wife, young people have announced themselves 🙂 Now we have to do the relevant shops today, strollers, baby bowl and child seat look. Baby bowl was found quickly, strollers we have not found anything suitable.. At the children’s seat we stepped on the Storchenmühle Starlight which made a quite solid impression. Now I just looked for test reports and had to find that the “only” satisfied abgeg other children’s seats were imho wabbelich and impractical, but got “good” as a test note. From the sellers who have at some point learned fruits and vegetables juggleuse you can not really expect help. Do you happen to have links where you can find “give” tests of children’s seats or personal favorites that you can recommend to me? Greeting Michael

  • Detect tyre condition in seconds

    Hello together, I was at a car dealer in Mainz the days when I came in there tell me a friendly staff member that my tyre profile depth is not good anymore. When I asked him where he knew that, he said his computer would have told him that. In short, I drove on the driveway to the grounds over a system that scanned my tyres. So I could call the exact condition of my tyres without even having a staff member near my car. I find this very interesting, how far the technology is today. I also had the company mentioned directly, because I wanted to know how this works. Here you can also look at it is really interesting but to explain that would take too much time (www.procontour.com). VG

  • Car dealer sold without warranty

    Hello to the round, have a problem to solve, maybe you can give me recommendations. 4 weeks ago I was looking for a small car as a second car.All pages in the www searched and at some point discovered a suitable car. Telephone contact with the car dealer, price negotiates-as far as ok. I also pointed out that I am private buyer, so there is a new HU/AU and warranty or warranty. No problem, the dealer said… e late drive (about 100km oneway), vehicle looked at, tested and then off to the office for the contract interview. The HU/AU was assured-but then came the following saying: “the legal. guarantee I can not give you, at the low price” We had agreed 2.300,-€. Without hesitation he put in front of my name the addition: “Fa.” – I should acquire the car as a company, so that he can handle the legal. warranty. I then unfortunately-the price was too tempting -the As a down payment he demanded 200,-€. I then also paid. Car collection was agreed one week after. Days later however, I nevertheless doubted whether this shady dealer here does not cheer me a lazy egg with this trick. I told him that I “challenge” the purchase contract – since I am neither company owner nor the telephone agreements were also observed at the first contact. He accepted my claim, moved but the 200,-€ not out!!! He would have had HU/AU costs and other expenses… How do you see the thing??? Should I order my legal protection insurance??? MfG charly145

  • I drove too fast, but was I blizzarded?

    Good evening, something stupid happened to me today, so there is such an autbahn descent that makes such a slight kink to the right and then goes straight ahead, there is tempo 60. now I drive however with about 80 (because there is absolutely no danger, and this speed limit is simply understated) and at the end of the straight piece there is a police car, as soon as I came around the kink and saw it, of course I braked immediately, there were 3 policemen at the car the un I don’t know if anything was measured there, but one ran quite hastily to the car and did something. It didn’t blizzard. Jezt I had shot that a few meters further a stripe would stand out pulling me out. There was also a stripe available but it didn’t pull me out to my great ease. That gives me no rest any more, it didn’t blizz and I wasn’t pulled out either, may I have a penalty without a picture proof. Can there be anything else? I should tell you that I am currently in Portugal, but I think that this is exactly the same as in Germany Many greetings, Kristian PS: great forum

  • ADAC wants to file a complaint against service station operators

    Hi, I just found: “Munich, March 18 (dapd) – The ADAC wants to report against gas station operators that have not offered the previous Super E5 since the introduction of the Biosprit E10. “Without any debt, the drivers who are not allowed to refuel E10 have to pay up to twenty cents per litre more,” said ADAC President Peter Meyer in Munich on Thursday. He spoke of rip-off and trickery in this context. According to ADAC, it is in the Federal Immission Protection Ordinance (Bundes-Immissionsschutzverordnung) According to Meyer, however, this regulation is being more and more eliminated by the fact that only the more expensive Super Plus, sometimes even only premium varieties such as VPower, are offered as Super-E5 replacements by petrol stations. Especially in the current phase of introduction, in which many drivers are not yet sure which fuel their vehicle will be able to purchase, the consumer must definitely choose between E10 and E10. I don’t always think the ADAC is right or the truth, but I think I’m right about that. Vllt would change that a bit. Lg Radeon
