Can a dealer sell a vehicle "As Is" or without a warranty in Virginia?

In Virginia, a dealer is permitted to sell a vehicle "As Is," which means that the buyer accepts the vehicle in its current condition without any implied warranties or guarantees about its mechanical condition or fitness for a particular purpose. This practice is common, particularly for used vehicles.

The "As Is" sale must be clearly communicated to the buyer, often through a written statement in the sales contract. It's important for customers to understand that by purchasing a vehicle "As Is," they may be taking on the risk of potential future repairs or issues that may not be immediately apparent at the time of sale.

The choice that claims only new vehicles can be sold without a warranty is not accurate; used vehicles can also be sold without any warranty. Therefore, the response that confirms the permissibility of "As Is" sales highlights a key understanding of vehicle sales laws in Virginia.
