If the seller sold you the car knowing that the air bags had been deployed and then had not replaced you do have legal standing to sue. You would have to be able to prove the seller knew this and did not tell you. That will be very difficult after 10 years. But of course you can sue.

what happens if you buy a car unaware of salvage title? well, if it was from a dealer you have recourse. if it's from a private seller, too bad...UNLESS they sold you the car with a clean title when they knew it was salvage. did you look at the title before you bought the car? if it was clearly branded as salvage or totaled you're out of luck but if it was a clean title when it actually wasn't you can try and get a refund from the seller or sue.

How much time does a buyer have to return a car to it's seller. I bought a used car from a private party 4 hours later the car engine seized.?

You cannot just return a car to the seller. There is no cooling off period on the sale of a vehicle. In your situation you can call the seller and ask for your money back, or ask the seller to repair the vehicle. If the seller refuses, your only recourse is to sue the seller in court. If you bought this car "AS IS" and there was no implied or written warranty then you will have to prove in court that the seller knew the engine was about to lock up. You must prove that the car was not serviceable on the day you bought it and the seller knew it. Get a written statement to that fact from 2 mechanics and that will strengthen your case. Otherwise you will probably loose on a car you bought "AS IS'.

Has the buyer the right to charge the seller for fixing of the car 3 months later if he says it is the sellers fault even though the seller does not agree and the car is newely nct?

First off I do not know what "nct" means. If you bought the car "As Is" the answer is more than likely NO. You will have toi sue the seller in small claims court. The vast majority of the time you will loose.

I recently brought a car from a private owner with no title found out later the car has a lien on how can i find out who has the lien and title.Can't take the seller to court don't have her address.?

You need to sue the seller for "rescission of contract." If you do not know her address, you need to call an attorney in your area and sue in general court (not small claims). There, your attorney can do a "summons by publication" which is where an ad in the newspaper serves the seller. Be sure to act quickly to avoid any legal complications.
