The Age Old Question: "Can I Back Out of a Car Deal?"

Tony,

A week ago I went to a car dealer in the evening and test drove a truck. I liked it, but had to take a flight out the next morning, so I could not take delivery of it. I paid cash and signed all the paperwork, but have not yet taken delivery of the truck. Am I stuck with the deal, or do I still have an "out" since I have not taken delivery?

Thanks,
Kirk Hunt


Hi Kirk,

It all depends on what you signed, and whether the car dealer will hold you to the letter of it. I suggest you communicate with the Sales Manager (not the salesman or the Finance Manager) right away and discuss the matter.

If they won't cooperate you will have one heck of a time getting all your money back. Next time you buy a vehicle take your time making a decision and be sure of what you are doing.
