Q: We got a new car in Cali 4 days ago. Can we cancel warranty added by the dealership?
We thought we got a good deal on a car. But on contract signing, we noticed there were warranty add ons totaling $6000. We told the financial guy we did not want all those, and he said it is part of the financing agreement since my husband is a first time buyer. My husband signed the contract and he took home the vehicle. Can he still cancel all the add on warranties after 4 days of purchase.
A:
Many car buyers get talked into buying an extended warranty they didn't want or need by a car salesperson who earns a commission by selling it. They then get home, do their research and learn that these are rarely worth the money.
Unfortunately, there's not enough information to answer your question but generally, yes-you should be able to cancel your warranty. You'll need to read the fine print for the cancellation process, which may allow you only a certain amount of time (30-60 days) to do so. You likely need to send something in writing.
