If you have a problem buying a car

Buying a car is a significant purchase for most of us. And if something goes wrong, it can have a big impact on our lives. Maybe you’ve been left waiting for a new vehicle that a dealership hasn’t been able to supply. Perhaps your used car has come with a fault and the dealership says it’s not responsible. Or you thought you’d got a great deal buying a car privately – only to find out you’ve been ripped off.

Know your consumer rights

What protection you have under consumer rights laws will depend on your situation. You could have bought a new or a used car. You might have paid up front, or signed up to a finance agreement. But if something isn’t as it should be, you’ll often be able to return the car for a refund or request a replacement. And because consumer rights are statutory, they might override a car dealership’s refund policy.
