What is covered by implied warranty? A leaking oil pan on a car we bought a week ago with a 30 day warranty?

We bought a used 2005 Jeep. It has a rusted and leaing oil pan. The sales man had told us that if there was anything wrong that they would fix it in the 30 period. We did find something wrong which is a $450 repair! They said it isn’t covered! I have read about implied warranties and was wondering if this would stand up for this situation? We have only had it a week!!!! Other than that it’s a great vehicle.

    tell them that you are contacting the dept of motor vehicles and the attorney general in your state did you get anything in writing?

    Did you get a vehicle inspection report when you bought the vehicle.
    Even used car dealers have an obligation as to the condition of the cars they sell.
    In Canada its the Used Car Dealers Association(watchdog for slimy used car dealers)
    Check your local government agencies, BBB or even police for advice as to possible threatened legal action.(small claims court)
    Plan well but be prepared and informed
    Sometimes a threat is all it takes.
