  24. Boa noite pessoal, com certeza possuir um automóvel é oneroso devido ao da verdadeira pilantragem de algumas empresas como as de leasing. Estas nem dão valor ao contrato firmado ou tem embutidas em letras pequenas regras que dão prejuízo ao adquirinte do automóvel. O Código do Consumidor muitas vezes não comtempla todas as deveres do consumidor. Estava lendo umas dicas no http://www.carrousado.org sobre todos os passos para a aquisição sem ter dor de cabeça depois. É só um desabafo, realmente está difícil fazer uma boa compra.
