From what I have read so far, auto dealers aren't required to refund or exchange anything due to buyer's remorse in PA. I'm still reading the Consumer Protection Law for PA.
HennysMom, you are absolutely right. Normally, that is what I do! I felt very uncomfortable with the whole situation because I hadn't reseached enough on the type of vehicle we bought. My hubby saw it on the lot when the other one fell through and he really wanted it. I said several times "Let's go home so I can research these vehicles more if that is what we want. We don't have to buy anything today." I guess I should have stuck with my gut feeling instead of letting my hubby's puppy dog eyes get to me! Guess I learned my lesson for sure - from now on I will trust my gut and go home and research! One thing I can say is that the price they gave me was in line with KBB and we knew that before buying it (the salesman looked it up because we all thought that the incorrect price on the price sheet was crazy. We watched him put all the information in and could see his screen the whole time, so he wasn't messing with us).
The weird thing is, this was a recent trade in that they had just recently listed for sale. When we test drove it, it hadn't even been sent out to be detailed yet. It was fresh out of their shop after all the mechanical inspections had been done, so I wouldn't think there would be any need to reduce to price online just yet to try to get rid of it. It was still flagged on Auto trader as "newly listed" so I would assume this was their starting price on that vehicle.
