Question:
I live in california and recently went to the dealer bought a brand new car, and the saleman told me that I need to buy the insurance for my new car right at the dealer otherwise he can not let me drive that car home from the dealer eventhough I have full insurance coverage on my old car(current car)? He ask me to get the insurance coverage that they offer for 30 days? Is this right or it is a scam to get more money from me? Is it true that for everyone who buy new car to get the insurace coverage before they can drive it home even if you have full coverage insrurace on your old car?
Thanks

It is true that you have to secure insurance before taking the car, but you don't have to buy theirs.

Call your insurance agency to find the facts. If you find that the dealer tried to scam you, I would cut the deal all together and go somewhere's else.
It is definitely a scam. Your Full Coverage policy will extend coverage for your new car for a matter of hours. What you need to do is call your Insurance Agent and tell them that you are going to buy the car, give them the year, make, model and VIN# for the car; then the coverage will be automatically bound and you can tell the Car Salesman aka.

If you financed the car through the dealership, the dealership is the lien holder and they may want to make sure that you have the proper insurance coverage on their property before you drive the car off of their lot.

You need insurance yes, but his particular brand...no. If you furnish proof of insurance that should be sufficient... Call your provider in his presence and have the new car added, old car deleted.

I think this is a scam, or you have really bad credit. I went to a dealer 12/27/06, provided no proof of insurance...they did call the insurance company and verify the insurance that I had to purchase before the loan. I drove the car home the same day. But, I did have a credit score over 800, at that time. I live in Ohio, maybe there are different laws where you live.Is there a way to tell the original colour of my car from VIN?
He is Full of S&^T he is scamming you. Your car is covered for 30 days by your insurance company. Take that dude to the dealer and have his hands slapped.

He IS required to ensure that the car is covered from the moment you drive it off the lot. Not all insurances automatically cover the new car.. so they cant let you leave without knowing it for sure. If you use a smaller insurance company (basically one that is closed at the time you buy the car) they may not let you leave without paying that premium.Where is the best place to buy Toyota Camry and Tundra in Orange County?
However this is NOT FULL COVERAGE INSURANCE!! You bought an insurance that ONLY covers the car itself if it is damaged- no liability, no medical, no nothing.
WHat does the carsalesperson make on a car deal typically and how is that calculated?
If you use progresssive, geico, all state, etc, they shouold have a 24 hour line you can call and add the car to your policy before driving off the lot-- they can even fax an iD card ot the dealership.
