Q. Dealer won’t give me refund of my down payment even though I never took possession of the car

December 6, 2024

A: It depends on whether there was a written contract and what the terms of the contract were. Sometimes, contracts have a "liquidated damages" provision wherein if there is a breach the non breaching party is entitled to the deposit. If there is no liquidated damages, you may be entitled to your money back.
