The 72 hour/3 day "cooling off" period does not apply to vehicles. In the DOT web page, I found that the sale is finalized after the contract is signed, and the vehicle is placed in your posession. This raises a question as to if the contract is valid if the vehicle is not yet placed in your posession. If you refuse to accept the vehicle then, it goes to reason that the contract is invalidated by not being allowed to finish its course of action. Hmm. I asked several financial managers of different dealerships this question and the answer that I got was that if the contract process is not completed by the car being received, the processes of going to the finance and licensing and titling can not proceed. Texas does not have a 3 day period to change your mind in signing for a new car, but the unique process of the car purchase raises this question of if you can interfer with with due process.

Can you return a car after you sign the papers if the dealer says he made a mistake and can't give it to you for the price you signed for?

The question is a bit confusing. When purchasing a car from a dealership, the transaction is by contract. Once the contract is signed, the contracted price is the price. There is no changing of minds later. If, as is not unusual, the dealer sent you with the vehicle to return at a later date to sign the contract, and then changed the price, this could be an attempt at fraud. Get the change in writing, do not sign anything, and take your evidence directly to an attorney who specializes in consumer fraud.

Have A County Attorney Read Your Contract, And Tell Him The Reason Stated By The Car Dealer. If Its In The Contract The Dealer Signed He Has To Fulfill His Signed Agreement. If He Has Not Entered Into A Contract With You On The Car, Signed By Himself. Then You Will Need To Walk Away. GOOD LUCK
