I sold my car privately recently. The car is 12 years old and just over 210,000 miles. The car was running fine while I owned it and I had no knowledge of any mechanical issues. Now, a week later, the buyer called me and she told me the transmission failed. I feel pretty conflicted on what to do. The buyer got a pretty good deal on the car and I would have been happy to let the buyer get the car inspected prior to purchase but she didn't.
Now I am stuck feeling guilty and worried the buyer thinks I lied to her or tried to hide the issue - which I didn't.
Rational me: They bought it as-is and elected not to inspect it.
Emotional me: Offer a decent amount of the purchase price back.
