Well this is a loss, not even sure if the car can be sold for parts legally? Is it someone else’s car that was stolen? Do you legally own it? Can you get it under your name/insured?
After that, if you do legally own the car, worst case you got a lemon with illegal activities surrounding it which may get you a refund over time.
You could decide to fix it and drive it, saving receipts (and keep track of your time).
Get Legal Shield (app) and see about advice from local lawyers there. It’s about $30/month. I believe they give advice and write letters for the plan and then in court issues are billed separate. None court things are under the subscription.
Check the affected area of the car and make sure it wasn’t tampered with. Check tranny for transmission fluid, oil for oil and make sure it’s the right color, etc.
Get a mechanic to check it out.
All of these steps are to get you to a better place even though you’ll have a little out of pocket.
Well musk is a bit silly.
