Re: I just bought a car Can I return it?

You signed a financing contract. You cannot return the vehicle for this reason without taking the consequences, unless you can affirmatively show that the dealership somehow used truly unfair and deceptive tactics t sell you more car than you wanted or could afford.

Many years ago, I worked for a firm that handled a car dealership's complaints. The dealership was under fire for such tactics, but it took the Attorney General to make it so hard on the company that it modified its tactics. Thus, the sort of defense I noted is POSSIBLE. However, it is also NOT PROBABLE. In addition, the tactic of "fight and drag it out" will be used to make the process expensive for you.

I wish you the best of luck, but I would not give you an optimistic assessment of your chances.

Not for the reasons stated.

You should contact the dealer and see if you can reach a deal.
