Question
In 2002 I purchased a used 1999 Chevrolet Blazer from a
certified dealer in Connecticut. The car's background was clean,
and everything seemed to be in perfect working order. Since
then, I've had to replace almost every major part of the vehicle,
and it has been back to the dealer a total of seven times for
them to fix the heater. Each time, the heater comes back
working for about a day or two before returning to its previous
nonfunctional condition. I've put almost as much money into
fixing the vehicle as I did purchasing it in the first place.  I'm
getting pretty fed up, as in Connecticut a car without a heater is
pretty much useless in the winter. I checked the state's lemon
laws, and from what I can gather there is very little protection
given for buyers of used vehicles. Do I have any kind of legal
ground to stand on here, or do I have no choice to keep shelling
out money for them to not fix the problem?  

Answer
Sorry, but I don't know anything about the law of Connecticut. I would suggest that you consult with a local attorney and also post your question at www.lawguru.com where it will be directed to attorneys in your state who are familiar with the lemon laws.
