I don't know for sure, but there are a lot of rules governing what car dealers do and can't do, and they vary from state-to-state and country-to-country.. Firstly I'd ask why they can't deliver the car agreed on. Are you willing to accept an IDENTICAL car with a different VIN? If so, you're not losing out on anything - all the VIN does is identify that particular car. What the dealer can't do, however, is: 1. Give you a demonstrator when you opted for a brand-new car. 2. Give you a car with last year's compliance plate on it if you chose one with this year's compliance (this is applicable for cars who have the same model more than one year, or who change their model mid-year). 3. Give you a superceded model when you asked for a current model. 4. Give you a vehicle that is different in any way from what you opted for - colour, trim, specification, engine etc... If they substitute the car, they really should ask your permission first, and they CANNOT give you a car that is different in any way without your permission, as this is a breach of the contract. 5. Charge you more than the price on the signed contract. If they do, you have the right to cancel the contract. This should be written in the fine print. Depending on local laws, if the dealer can't deliver the car within a certain time after their promised delivery date, then you can cancel your contract. Here in Australia it's 30 days. They may have a 'raincheck' option which means you can select an equivalent car for the same price if they can't provide the one you want. Again I stress - check your local laws first and see what it says. Your laws may say that VINs can't be changed, or they may not. However, it would definitely be worth asking the question 'why?'. If it's a matter that they didn't get that particular car through a supplier issue, then fair enough. If they sold it to somebody else beforehand (a higher bidder maybe...), then I'd be out of there in a flash, if that's really how highly they think of you. Just my 2 cents worth.

If your contract, with the dealer, specifically described the vehicle, its make, color, accessories, etc., and you were not delivered or cannot be delivered what you had ordered, you can cancel. you probably will need an attorney. if you have taken possession of the vehicle, i would definetely return it to the dealer. if the dealer refuses to accept the returned vehicle, i would leave it parked on their lot. be sure take photos of this event, noting the date and time. this would be a violation of the contract, by not delivering the vehicle ordered. you will need an attorney.some car dealers are desparate to sell automobiles. some dealers will attempt anything to make a sale. you are paying for it, make sure its what you ordered. a written contract is an agreement, with two or more people, to purchase, sell, or anything agreeable within the said parties. the contract can be for goods or services. if the written contract is not or cannot be fulfilled, by either agreeing party, then the contract shall be void. appropriate civil liability may be in order.

I purchase a car from dealer. MSRP was $17760 and Contract shows Sales price $18755 Dealer telling me that I purchase Paint protection which I never got.Can dealer Put selling price more than MSRP? It does not show on Contract or pre-contract disclosure from. Please give me correct answer. Thanks

If the VIN number is on the contract, and you didn't get that specific car, then you can certainly cancel it within a certain specified time. That's the value and power of having a sales contract in the first place. It is for your protection as well as the dealers.
