When buying new cars, if you ignore our advice and you trade in a used car which you still owe money on, insist that the dealer put in writing that they will pay off your car loan in 10 days or no deal. Then the dealer is liable because you took steps to protect your rights up front.
In addition, every state sets limits on how long you can keep dealer plates on your car post-purchase. When you buy a car from a dealership in Michigan, for example, you can use the dealer plates for up to 72 hours after taking possession of the car. But you need to have already applied for vehicle registration and you must carry proof of purchase with you while driving. Using Dealer Plates to Dodge Fees.
