If you have a
car finance agreement (like a PCP or HP) or a lease (usually contract hire), then it can be a bit more complicated because technically your car belongs to the finance company
You will need to speak to your finance company to begin with. Tell them why you are rejecting the car, but bear in mind that the vehicle may need to go back to the dealer for assessment or repair.
Any good finance company should be able to help you through this process. It can be slightly drawn-out process because the dealer will have to refund the finance company rather than you directly. The finance company will then have to terminate your agreement and pay you back your deposit plus any payments you’ve already made, minus any deductions made for fair usage.
Time Limits
I’ve owned the car for less than 30 days The Consumer Rights Act gives you an initial 30 days to reject it, if it is faulty, and claim a full refund from the dealer that sold it to you. You can also ask for it to be repaired or replaced
After those first 30 days you have to give the dealer a chance to repair or replace the car.
I’ve owned the car for more than 30 days You're entitled to ask for a repair or replacement free of charge.
If the repair or replacement is unsuccessful, you're entitled to a refund. The car dealer can deduct ‘fair use’ from the refund after the first 30 days.
First six months If you take the vehicle back within six months of purchase, the dealer should accept there was a problem when the vehicle was sold and offer a partial refund or to repair or replace it.
If the warranty won't pay
