  1. Penelope went to XYZ Motors to purchase a used car. The car she was interested in was a 2017 Subaru Forester with 14,000 miles that was in good condition.  Penelope took the car for a test drive and noticed that the car seemed to be pulling to the side when she was driving.   When she returned to the dealership, she talked to the salesperson about the issue.  The salesperson assured her that the car had recently been serviced and that the issue was the car needed to be driven more for the issue to go away.  Satisfied with his answer, Penelope purchased the car.  Three weeks later, the car broke down and Penelope’s mechanic informed her that she had a broken ball joint on the car that would need to be replaced.  Penelope filed a lawsuit against XYZ Motors.  What is the outcome?

  2. Geoff and Martha Atamian were interested in purchasing a home in Tewksbury, MA. The Atamians inspected the home and had several questions. One of their concerns was related to the home’s addition.  The Atamians wanted to know if the work for the addition had been permitted.  The real estate agent was not sure but indicated that the Atamians should contact the town to find out.   The Atamians went ahead and made an offer on the home that day, which was accepted.  Shortly after moving in the Atamians found out that they would need to remove the addition because the work had been done without a permit.  Upon learning of the issue, the Atamians sued the previous owner for damages.  What is the outcome?
