Trouble with a new vehicle

I bought a new car in August from a saleswoman that I have dealt with before.When I bought the vehicle she told me it was all wheel drive.I thought of her as a friend so I didn't question.Turns out the car is only front wheel drive.Thats not what I thought I bought.I do not want this car.I called her but she said that it was just too bad.What can I do?

Re: Trouble with a new vehicle

This is a fairly easy case to resolve. Was your agreement with the sales clerk entirely oral? Is there any written contract you signed to purchase the car that specifies the car was a four-wheel drive? If not, then it is just your word against hers. No judge will rescind a contract, particularly where you have driven and used the vehicle, without written evidence of the four-wheel drive representation. A judge will assume if that feature was so important to you, then you would have definitely either tested the car on rough terrain or asked someone to verify it was indeed a four-wheel drive vehicle.
