Buying from a dealer

Automobile dealers in Utah are licensed, bonded, and must follow strict regulations in each vehicle transaction. Most dealers are honest and pleasant to work with and purchasing from a dealer may save you many of the hassles of paperwork and titling that you might experience when purchasing from a private party. In addition, many used car dealers offer vehicles that have been inspected for major problems, repaired if needed, and some even offer warranties on the used vehicles they sale.

To ensure your experience with a dealer is completed to your satisfaction, read the information in this section. If you have a complaint about your experience with a dealer, see How to File a Complaint About a Dealer to find out what recourse you may have.
