Somrone took my car to a dealer and tried to trade it in on another car and thr dealer did a contract on it ?

Question

Is this legal?

Answer 1

No it's not legal.  You must have some nice friends that tried to trade your car in.

Answer 2

No, it's not legal. The dealer will soon find out the the "someone" does not have the car's title and is not the owner -- and has no right to try to trade it. The contract will be voided. Furthermore, the dealer may call the police to report the fraud.

Answer 3

If the car title was in your name and without your consent to do so and the dealer took the car in trade, this is not legal.

Answer 4

No, It wont be a legal contract.

If you are the sole owner of the car and your name is on the title, no one else can do a deal or start a contract on your car.

Phone the dealer and say you are the rightful owner, you have proof that the car is in your name and you are not interested in trading it in on another vehicle.

If this doesnt work, seek legal help.

Answer 5

Not only is it not legal, the contract is totally worthless with out the legal owners signature...You.
