Many states have laws that allow consumers a "buyer's remorse" period. That means that the consumer can return the item within a specific number of days. Unfortunately, I do not know which state would apply to your purchase.

If you had bought a "used" car, then you would likely have more options, however it appears that you purchased a brand new car. If you had financed the car thru the dealership where you bought the car, it is highly likely that you were charged much more in interest than if you had gone thru a bank for the financing.

If you feel that you had been mis-led by the dealer - whether on the price of the car, or on the financing, etc., you could consider doing the following:

1 - Review the purchase contract to see if there are any provisions for returning the car.

2 - Approach the dealer ASAP & tell them that you need to return the car.

You need to get their answer in writing - this way you can prove what was said.

3 - If you feel that you had been unfairly dealt with you can inform the dealership that you plan to file a formal complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.

4 - File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission.

5 - Note - some states may not have any provision for consumers to return purchases.

Good luck.
