My relative asked my advise, I told him I could care less about on-star, but looks like they sold the car to someone who then returned the car to the dealer. Car was never titled, but certainly was not new. His check for the car has
already cleared.
He found this out last night and has not talked to the dealer yet.
Suggestions?

This is what might have happened, Buyer comes in and buys car, says he makes xxxx per year and on the job for 2 years. Finance dept gets approval and contracts buyer, salesman does online sign up for buyer, a few days later lender calls to confirm buyes income and job time and find buyer has not told the truth, lender calls dealer and cancels contract do incorrect info. OnStar clock is still running, it cannot back up. Hope this helps, Regards, Jerry
