Can I Walk Away from a Car Deal?
My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: New York
Hi, i recently purchased a used car from a dealer and got approved for financing. I did not put any money down. I arranged for my current car to be traded in. I signed the financing papers and was told that the car had to go through they're 120 point inspection process. Long story short its been a month and i still do not have the car. First it was that they had to get a warranty for the engine because the ford dealer did not want to cover a land rover engine and now he is telling me that the car has a check airbag light that won't go off. What makes me nervous is that the ford dealer could not fix the problem. They had to send it to a land rover dealer and thats where we're at now.
I wanted to know if it was possible to just walk away from the deal. To conclude i signed financing papers, car trade in papers (still have my title and car) and never took possession of the car. Your advice and input will gladly be appreciated. I also would like to know what would you do if you were in this situation.
In most states the deal is not complete until you pick up the vehicle. But being NY state, I'd call a free lawyer service and ask.
Read the first paragraph, just walk away, tell them you are no longer interested because they're wasting your time.
New deal: air bag light won't go off; not what you bargained for + the time factor/delay.
imo, you can walk.
document everything, dates, job titles, etc.
& Rovers are notoriously difficult in the shop.
Yes, you have your car & your title. No obligation.
I agree with Mason. Something seems shady about this. Walk away and don't look back.

- Is this a good deal on this car? Okay, so my dad totaled my grandma's 1999 Ford Taurus and this is the closest thing I could find to what she had. My grandma doesn't drive much so the vehicle's age doesn't matter really but she still wants a car to drive around in. My local Mazda dealer is selling this 2008 Mazda5 with 92,567 miles for $8,980. Is this a good deal?
- How much money should i put away each paycheck for a used car? I'm 16 years old and I currently work at shop rite; I had a 1998 Ford Taurus for 7 months but i only paid $900 for it so i can learn how to drive but now it will not start at all! Now I desperately need a new car because I'm about to start college but i don't want to put that pressure on my parents because they need to pay for my college and nursing books! I work part time at shoprite and I get $100-150 every friday & I only saved up $200! Please give me advice!
- Car Dealer RESCINDING DEAL? I bought a new Ford Mustang a month ago. A week later I received a letter from the finance manager, stating their rescinding the deal. I went personally to talk to them and they informed me not to worry. They will fix it. Its been a month and a half already and they told me they are still trying to find a finance to accept the loan agreement. Can I Just Return It? I Put 1K As Downpayment? I'm frustrated.
