Scranton/Scion of Scranton,PA I bought a used truck without a catalytic converter! Scranton Pennsylvania
*Consumer Comment: Check with the Pennsylvania state laws... I found this

*General Comment: As is...
I bought a used 2001 toyota tacoma ''as is'' and could not get the truck inspected in NY state because the truck did not have a catalytic converter, just a pipe. I brought my truck to my local Firestone and it is going to cost me over 2000 dollars to have it inspected. I think Toyota/scion of Scranton, PA should at least reimburse half of the repair bill!

Check with the Pennsylvania state laws... I found this

I have a "as-is" issue as well so I feel your pain. maybe this can help. Good Luck Pennsylvania law states that every vehicle offered for sale must be roadworthy. It is also illegal for a dealer to sell you a car without informing you of the following problems if the seller knows or should know that they exist: a cracked or twisted frame a cracked engine block or head bad transmission bad differential flood damage the car won't pass state inspection These rules apply to both new cars and used cars and even to cars that are sold "as is."
Pennsylvania also has a "Lemon Law," but it applies only to new cars that are purchased and registered in Pennsylvania. It gives car buyers special rights when a new car does not measure up to its warranty. If you think the laws explained in this pamphlet have been broken, you may contact the State Bureau of Consumer Protection. To find the office nearest you, call 1 (800) 441- 2555, or write to the Bureau of Consumer Protection, 14th Floor, Strawberry Square, Harrisburg, PA 17120.

I, at least should have been told the other problems that came along with this "as is'' truck. It's fixed now so I hope there is no more surprises! And to you who rebutted, has this EVER happened to you?

As is means as is. To expect them to pay half of your inspection costs is foolish at best, robbery at the worst. You purchased the vehicle AS IS knowing the vehicle was AS IS. You signed the paperwork stating that your purchase was AS IS. Your demand is silly. This is just the costs associated with purchasing a new used vehicle.
