J.D. Byrider Return Policy and Lemon Law Protections Explained

This is the J.D. Byrider return policy in plain language. If you bought a used car from J.D. Byrider, you may be able to return it, but you’ll have to contact the dealership for details. If something is wrong with the car and it’s under warranty, you can also look into your state’s lemon laws.

J.D. Byrider Return Policy

J.D. Byrider, a used car dealership franchise, does not have a universal, companywide return policy, as confirmed by a J.D. Byrider customer service representative. For specifics, you’ll need to contact the J.D. Byrider where you purchased the vehicle.

While return policies vary by location, we spoke with a representative at the J.D. Byrider in Boise, Idaho, and we were told that the dealership does not accept returns. Since all J.D. Byrider cars are sold with a warranty, the location did say it would work with you if something is wrong with the vehicle.

J.D. Byrider is a “Buy Here, Pay Here” used car dealership, meaning you can buy a car, get financing, and make payments all through J.D. Byrider. J.D. Byrider works with buyers with less-than-ideal credit scores who might not qualify for an auto loan through a traditional dealership or lender. J.D. Byrider also offers services and repairs for the vehicles it sells.

What About Lemon Law Protections?

Lemon laws typically apply to new car purchases, unless the used car is still under warranty. In most states, used car dealerships are under no legal obligation to let you return a car. Once you’ve signed a contract to purchase a vehicle, it’s yours and is no longer the dealership’s responsibility. Exceptions may include:

• If there is a serious defect with the car that the dealer can’t fix
• If the car fails to pass a safety inspection test immediately after purchase
• If the dealership engaged in fraud

In Summary

J.D. Byrider’s return policy varies by location, so you’ll need to contact your local dealership for details. Bear in mind, you likely don’t have a legal right to return a used car unless it has an irreparable defect or the dealer engaged in some sort of fraudulent behavior.
