Legal Question in Consumer Law in Louisiana

what recourse does a buyer have against an automobile dealership if the buyer thinks the dealership has used unethical practices in the transaction? The purchase was made a week ago and even though the buyer notified the dealer by email that she did not want to proceed with the transaction, the dealer cashed the check. at the time of the email, the buyer did not have possession of the car

Re: consumer recourse, automobile
This has to be the most common question I receive about cars.
Once you sign an agreement to buy a car, it is binding. You cannot change your mind.
In Louisiana, a sale is complete when the seller and buyer agree on a thing being sold and the price.
If you signed an agreement to buy the car, the dealer is within his rights to refuse to cancel the sale.
