Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

My g/f just traded in her car yesterday and bought another (from a dealer). and now she doesnt want it because of the high interest rate, roll-over amount, and length of financing with such high payments. can she take the car back and get her old one back? some people have told me that she has 3 days to return the new car. but what about the one she traded in? will they give it back to her? Please respond ASAP with any helpful info. I appreciate it...



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Many states have laws that allow consumers a %26quot;buyer%26#039;s remorse%26quot; period. That means that the consumer can return the item within a specific number of days. Unfortunately, I do not know which state would apply to your girlfriend%26#039;s purchase.



IF she had bought a %26quot;used%26quot; car, then she would likely have more options, however it appears that she purchased a brand new car.



IF she had financed the car thru the dealership where she bought the car, it is highly likely that she was charged much more in interest than if she had gone thru a bank for the financing.



IF your girlfriend feels that she had been mis-led by the dealer - whether on the price of the car, or on the financing, etc., she could consider doing the following:



1 - Review the purchase contract to see if there are any provisions for returning the car.



2 - Approach the dealer ASAP %26amp; tell them that she needs to return the car.



Tell her to get their answer in writing - this way she can prove what was said.



3 - IF she feels that she had been unfairly dealt with she can inform the dealership that she plans to file a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.



4 - File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.



5 - Note - some states may not have any provision for consumers to return purchases.



Good luck.

Whenever I buy something important or expensive I ALWAYS use the proper %26quot;Timing%26quot;. I have seen too many people buy expensive things at the wrong time %26amp; get taken advantage of.

Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I doubt it. Gotta do the research beforehand



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

She%26#039;s screw.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Yes she has 3 days to cancel the transaction, but the quicker the better to insure getting her car back before they do something else with it would be my thought...best wishes =)



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

most places is 2 days,i would call or read over the agreement befor its to late



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

i think they do alow refunds if u didnt like mess up the car or anything, you%26#039;re gonna have to hpone the dealer ship and ask.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Ask the dealer.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I think you may have a 30 day satisfaction agreement, look into that.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

yes but threre will be a charge to do so I would think



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

not unless it%26#039;s in the contract.



you%26#039;re screwed! that%26#039;s what car dealers do!



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I seriously doubt it. I mean it would hurt for you to try. I would go talk to them salesman, some of them are really nice and will work with you, or try to get you into something that you can afford, lower payments, interest, etc......



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

i think that you can but there may be a restocking feel and as far as your trade in car...well i am not sure about that. my suggestion would be to call the dealership and talk to them



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

i believe you have 48 hrs to change your mind on that type of purchase but you will still have to pay license and transfer fees



omvic can help you



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I believe she has 72 hours to do so but they won%26#039;t tell you that. Should be in the paperwork in fine print



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Yes, she should be able to take it back and should be able to get her car back. There is usually a time limit like within 3 days. They will try and change her mind. Maybe have her get something in her price range so that she can get a better rate or payment.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

you can take the car back and if they still have the old car, which they should, they need to keep it for so long before selling, she will get that back too.



i usually thought the whole car thing was 15 days and you can just walk away from the transaction.



take the car back to the dealer and tell them you want to void the transaction.



good luck.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

i think its different for different dealers, w/e the agreement you signed said will prob tell you how long u have to return the the car. if u want figure it out u can always call the dealer which u bought it from, i mean the worst they can say is %26quot; no%26quot;.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

if the (high) interest rate, roll-over, etc was agreed upon at signing, then no, she%26#039;ll be stuck with it. But if they said they could get you a lower rate and for some reason haven%26#039;t been able to, then they failed their part of the agreement and you should be able to get everything back (money, trade in).



I had a friend drive a new car for four months (without a payment) before they finally gave up on trying to get him the low interest rate. So they took the car back and that was that.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I work for a car dealership. Technically, no. Once you sign the papers and take delivery, it%26#039;s yours, no waiting period, buyer%26#039;s remorse period, none. Now some dealers will look past this if it%26#039;s an extreme situation just to keep you as a customer and for referrals. If you have a dealer like this, you are lucky. Why the hell did your gf sign the papers if she didnt like the terms?? What a dummy.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I doubt it, my boss trade up for a new car and then he realized that he could get a better deal somewhere else. He tried to take it back but he was denied. I had another friend who got financing through a car dealership and she could not make payments so they took the car back and gave her the old one. You might want to check your terms and contract from the car dealer, and also see if you could go on line and talk to a lawyer for free. Good luck

Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Yes you can take it back and yes she will get her car back they don%26#039;t do anything to her car until the final financing goes through which takes about 3 weeks so go now is my suggestion... Good Luck



Just tell them your not satisfied



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Thanks to Arnold here in CA ( and I%26#039;m hoping you are in CA ) we have what we call Car Buyers Bill of Rights which provides a 2 day buyers remorse period and for example the right to have the lowest financing that was offerred to you made known to you. If you are not in California, you may want to call the FTC @ 1-877-FTC-HELP. Most of the time our inner feelings of dissatisfaction above all when buying a car come from knowing you got jipped. So act NOW and do something about it. Before I forget if you are eligible for any remorse periods then also beware that you may be charged for backing out of the deal, in CA max is 250.00. Good Luck.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

I wouldn%26#039;t trust any of these answers where people are saying %26quot;you have X days to return the car%26quot; without stating the circumstances upon which it is true. People hear things and repeat them without knowing the details or restrictions - this isn%26#039;t much use to you.



The sale of cars is an area that falls mostly under state law. State laws vary widely from state to state. What is true in one state may not be true in another.



Likewise, I%26#039;ve seen TV commercials for a car manufacturer that provided a 72 hour satisfaction period. However, if you took the time to look into the details, it turns out your satisfaction wasn%26#039;t really guaranteed - they simply give you the opportunity to choose a different car - you%26#039;d likely still be stuck with the same horrible interest rate.



I think your best course would be to contact the dealer immediately and tell them in clear terms you don%26#039;t want the car and you want the trade-in back. Be polite - you can be firm without being rude. Don%26#039;t hesitate because if you do have a %26quot;grace%26quot; period, it%26#039;s probably very short.



Make careful notes about the date and time of any conversations, and the first and last names of EVERYONE you speak to (a hint, ask for the person%26#039;s name before you start talking then write it down - if you don%26#039;t hear the first time, don%26#039;t be shy, politely ask them to repeat it). The reason for this is that if the dealer says you can%26#039;t return th car, and later you find out they lied, your conversation log would be important for establishing the fact that you attempted to return the car within the return period.



If in fact you are permitted to return the car, the dealer may try to convince you otherwise; the dealer may tell you that you can choose another car and make it sound like you can%26#039;t return the car without directly stating %26quot;you can%26#039;t return the car%26quot;. The way to deal with someone who is being evasive is to ask direct questions - don%26#039;t let them change the subject - force them to say %26quot;yes you can return the car%26quot; or %26quot;no you can%26#039;t return the car%26quot;. Refuse to go any further until you get a clear answer.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

No she can not. Once the deal is done it is done. The 3 day return policy only applies to door to door sales. However the dealer may be willing to work with her and get her into something a little less expensive. The only other way she would be able to get out of it is if she was still under the age of 18..



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Most states do not have a cooling off period on cars. Since now the car is %26quot;used%26quot; they dealer cant resale it as new and would take a loss on it. Sounds like your girlfriend has just had a life lesson. Before you buy anything make sure the long term result is worth the short term excitement.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

your butt cans



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

Yes, you have 30 days after buying a new car to return it.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

No. You would have a 3 day right of refusal if you have never been in the dealership. Example off-site sale or similar. You are at the mercy of the dealership for cooperation in returning it otherwise.



Can I return a new car that I just bought yesterday?

they have a choice to give it back or not becuase that is a stupid reason for returning it, and if they do they will charge her about $1,000 or so I%26#039;ve heard. If I was the dealer she would not get the choice to return it becuase she new the interest, roll-over, and the monthly payments before she signed that she is buying it. next time tell her to pay attention to what she is signing.
