  1.  @uraldamasis6887  It is possible, but super unlikely in a used car scenario. The way it would work is this: the original purchase contract (or the rebate agreement) could include “pass-thru” language stipulating future contracts between you, the original buyer, and future buyers. To sell the car, you’d need put in clauses that waive the right to sue (and the manufacturer would obviously provide the mandatory clauses). Those contract clauses would pass thru to any future sales. You’re not so much waiving the rights of future buyers as it is requiring them to waive their rights as a condition of buying your car. TLDR: a contract can control and specify the terms and conditions of future contracts between the buyer and subsequent buyers. Sounds ludicrous, right? But there are precedents for such pass-thru agreements in the armaments industry, where contract language defines future contracts with third parties. Let’s say a German tank manufacturer sells some tanks to the Italian government. The Italian government is contractually restricted from exporting those tanks to other buyers without approval from the German manufacturer. Let’s say there’s two potential buyers in third countries: the government in Myanmar and an arms broker in Spain. The manufacture has the contractual right to reject either buyer. Maybe they don’t like Myanmar’s human rights policies, so they say, “No, Italy, you can’t pass the tanks to the Myanmar government. But you can sell to the broker in Spain if they sign a pass-thru agreement that controls to whom they can sell the tanks, that gives us ultimate approval over the sale.” This is to avoid the broker turning around and selling the tanks to Myanmar. These sorts of pass-thru agreements are real. They have affected countries trying to send war fighting equipment to Ukraine, delaying the shipment. It’s unrealistic that a car dealer could make buyers sign such a contract, but it is possible. The export can even be mandated by the government of the country where the manufacturer is located, defined by export control laws of that country, which adds another layer of approval.
