How can I fight a promissory note for services that haven’t been provided from a car dealer?
Less than a week ago I purchased a new vehicle, financed through my credit union. While at the dealership completing paperwork to pick the car up I was pressured about purchasing an extended warranty and LoJack system.I foolishly signed a promissory note with the understanding that it was essentially just “locking in” a particular price for the warranty and LoJack with the option not purchase either. Now I’m concerned that the dealer has essentially tricked me into buying both services outright. The warranty isn’t active and LoJack hasn’t been installed yet.What should I do?

If you have not received what you paid for from the dealership as to the warranty and the LoJack system then you need to have a face to face meeting with the car dealership's manager as to why you are not getting what you are entitled to. If the response is not to your satisfaction, then you need to consult with an attorney that practices in the area of consumer law to give you the guidance as to how you should proceed which might encompass a breach of contract action.
