Legal Question in Consumer Law in Florida
Used Cars
We recently signed all paperwork for a used car and gave them the down payment. The car did not leave the lot because we could not get insurance due to hours of insurance company. Are we still liable in this contract?

Re: Used Cars
It depends on what the contract says. READ IT CAREFULLY. Some (many) contracts for used cars are contingent upon the buyer getting financing or getting insurance. If your contract is like that, then you are not liable. If there is no "out" in the contract, then you are still liable. Again, read the contract.
Even if the contract does not give you a way out, try to talk (nicely) with the used car lot owner. He wants you as a future customer and should want your friends. Let him know you will say good things about him to whomever you know needs a car.
Good luck.
