Question:
Do I have recourse? She had the vehicle for 1 1/2 years, and put over 40K miles on it. She made a ton of late payments, more late than on time, and thrashed my hubby's credit. Can I sue her to pay for the xtra miles? We all signed paperwork agreeing that she would return it if needed inthe same condition she rcv'd it in. After smashing the bumpers all to hell, she had to replace those, and have it detailed, because she's a pig, but the 22 thousand xtra miles are gonna make it difficult to re-fi to purchase or even turn it back in....any ideas?
Answers:
I'm not a lawyer or anything, but i think that whoever signed the contract with the leasing agent is ultimately responsible for the vehicle...if you sub leased it then the contract you have with your friend is binding but only between you and her. You pay the leasing co. and chase her for reimbursement.
what did YOUR contract say about such an item . was sublease underlined ?
Will car stickers lower my car value when I trade it in?
Assuming you are from the USA, you have very little recourse. The agreement between the lessor and the lessee generally rules supreme over any subordinate agreements and should contain language prohibiting sub-leasing. The company that leased to you owns the car and the person that leased it has contactual obligations superior to those of any subsequent agreements or sub-leases. Looks to me like a very costly lesson has been learned here. DON'T SUBLEASE AUTOMOBILES.Are there any sites that actually pay you to drive cars with ads on them?
Don't do this kind of sub-lease again. I'm not even going to ask why you did this in the first place, and, by the way, she ain't your friend.More Questions & Answers ...
