Q: purchase agreement/contract and paperwork I have has vin that doesn't match car or titles vin. Is contract valid still
The vin is incorrect on all the paperwork that the finance company and I have. the original title and vehicle have the same vin but they don't match the contract. Does that mean the contract is void.?
A: It depends. Clearly an error (legal mistake occurred). You must inform the seller of the defect and provide them with a reasonable period to cure the defect. If they can, the contact is valid. If they cannot, the contact is void. If you have a problem with the seller, you may want to contact an attorney.
