They told me that if I can hold off and not collect the insurance payment, that it would probably be best. We shall see what happens (in reply to reality1011) Post #: 28

I was listening to Incubus...Pardon Me While I Burn....do you think that was a contributing factor?

Status: offline Don't get so excited..........First off, most states, if not all states, have laws that protect you the used car consumer from incidents such as you describe. Find out what your rights are first, then confront the dealer for a full refund of the money. The dealer will abide......but if given a chance, they will try to unload another car onto you before you take action. It's just a game, know your wrights!...........Good luck.........  (in reply to techbod) Post #: 42
