Typically the rule of thumb is that you have three days to terminate your contract for anything. I would first consult with your dealer about these type of questions before you sign anything. There could be penalties envolved that you would have to pay.
If you live in California and you sign any contract, you will be unable to return the vehicle. In a rare case, I practically begged the manager of a used car lot to unwind the deal. I told him that my wife purchased a car for me prior to my purchase of their car, but I was completely unaware of it. They finally let me out, but withheld a $40.00 documentation fee and a 2.9% credit card surcharge. $178.00 is better than a $6000 used car that I decided that I didn't want. Also, when I purchased the car, I left it at the car lot and told them that I'll pick it up in a matter of days. I guess the unwinding of the deal helped for the simple fact that the car never left the lot and I came back the next morning. It only took me one night to think about the deal and realize that I wanted out. The most important thing is to not let the sales person pressure you into signing anything. Don't listen to 'this car may be gone tomorrow,' 'this is as low as I can go,' 'you will not find a deal better,' etc. It's all bull. It will get you in trouble if you sign the contracts, but you later want out. THERE IS NO WAY OUT AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. Everything is monitored and recorded from the minute you step on the car lot until you go to the back office to sign the 'nail in the coffin' contracts. Before you sign anything, go home and think about it. It will save you a lot of headaches. DON'T SIGN ANY CONTRACTS UNTIL YOU ARE COMPLETELY HAPPY WITH THE CAR! If you already have and you want out, the best advice that I can give is make up any good believable heartbreaking lie such as: Someone passed in my family and I need the money to help fund the burial expenses, etc. Go in the office crying if you have to. It may work, but it may not. YOU WILL BE CRYING FOR REAL IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO UNWIND THE DEAL. The best time to put on an act is when a sales person is with a potential car buyer. The car lot or dealership people most likely won't show their true colors in front of potential car buyers. They'll put on an act and most likely, unwind the deal. But again, this is rare, like in my case. DON'T SIGN ANY CONTRACTS UNTIL YOU ARE COMPLETELY HAPPY WITH THE CAR!
NO! You need to carefully read the paperwork before you sign it. If you feel like you need more time, ask to take the paperwork home with you before you sign. You do not have three days to change your mind. The "three day" rule that everyone thinks they understand only applies to purchases solicited in your own home. That means you can change your mind wintin three days of buying a vacuum from the door-to-door salesman but not if you sign a contract in someone's place of business.
in Minn how do I start what ever it takes to return a new car that I found out has already had repaired body damage to it
The minute that car was driven off the dealer's lot (assuming it was a dealer), the money clock starts ticking - if you decide to return the car "undriven" you are certain to incur some expense if at minimal.
If a car dealer wants you to redo the paperwork, you are not required to do so unless (a) you know that the redoing of the paperwork will help you relative to the interest rate or price of the vehicle that you are purchasing or (b) the paperwork was done in such a way that your credit or identity may be negatively impacted. Ask the dealer to give you the specific reason why they want to redo the paperwork and have them show you the fault. You are also able to say, "I want to speak with my financial advisor before doing so, and you should still be able to leave with the vehicle. If all else fails, the three (3) day lemon law states that if you are not happy with the vehicle that you purchased, you may return the vehicle to the dealer at no cost to you - the action will make your loan null-and-void.
Yes.
This depends on what terms you agreed to in your paperwork with the dealership. When you negotiate used car terms at the dealer you should always ask in advance if it's ok to return it. Call the dealership and ask them if you are unsure of your auto dealer terms. For more information of used car's check:- http://www.autopitch.com/blog/
It depends on what state your in and your reason for wanting to return it. Some dealers will take a car back in exchange for another if they are a reputable dealer. In the state of Ohio , once you sign the paperwork, you can not return it unless there is a very valid reason other than you changed your mind ( according to the state ).
There is no return law on a vehicle purchased in Indiana or any other state. You bought it and you own it. The only way you legally can return it in Indiana is if the dealer does not provide you with a title in 21 days. You then must demand the title in writing and the dealer has another 10 days to supply you with the title. If you do not get it after that time period you can return the car and demand a refund.
There is no return period unless the dealer has such a voluntary, user friendly policy. Most car sales are final. You need to read your contract and know the dealer's policies before signing anything.
You can usually return a faulty car back to the dealer, but to be repaired. You cannot return a car unless the dealer refuses to have it repaired.
I was told buy a used car manager that if the car does not leave the lot you do not own it. Even if the paperwork is all done. once it hits the street its yours.
Once you sign the papers, it is your car. You cannot return it unless the dealer agrees to the return.
0 Days if you signed the paperwork at the dealership, 3 days if you signed paperwork outside the dealership (ie. Home, Work, School etc.). Unless the dealer offers a time period in which to return the vehicle. For example the dealer I work for offers a 3 day 500 mile money back guarantee. Hope this helps someone.
