I think you need to ignore most of the advice in this thread except for the Canadians, because US law doesn't apply to your situation. I'm not Canadian, so that includes me.

That said, in most states in the US we have certain implied warranties that come with the car that a car dealer can't just wipe away by putting "As Is" on the window. If a dealer here sells you a used car that they represent as being completely stock and never modified, and it turns out to be misrepresented, there might be some remedies available depending on how long ago you bought it.

I have no idea if Canada has the same type of implied warranties, so you might consider doing some research on that subject or simply calling a lawyer. It's usually easier to get a merchant to cooperate if you already know what they're required to do by law and what they aren't. Maybe you're shit outta luck, but I wouldn't believe it just because some Amurkin says so on a message board.
