Arizona.
The story:
Went to dealership with a trade-in. Everything was fine, drove away with the vehicle. Two weeks later they want me to sign another contract. I oblige. (Side note: This contract was stamped with the same date as the old one.) About 4 weeks after signing that 2nd contract they call me and tell me financing fell through and that they need the car back. I did a bit of looking into it and I read that they have to notify me within 10 days or the sale is final. Is this true?
If I do end up having to give up the vehicle; They gave me $8500 for the trade-in value of my old car, my remaining loan is only about $7000. Do they owe me restitution of $1500? Do I owe them money for miles put on the vehicle? In the meantime can they lawfully tow the vehicle? What kind of lawyer should I get to represent me if I went down that road?
What other potential posturing do I have?
Thanks so very much in advance.
