However, if the dealer arranged the financing, the deal is usually tied to approval of the financing. If you lost your job thru no fault of your own, you should notify the finance company, and perhaps they will reject the loan application. That should help to get you out of the deal; although you might not get the used car back, if the dealer has sold it already. (In that case you might get only what the dealer got for it.) You would also have to refund to the dealer anything he paid to pay off your used car, if he can't get it back himself. Contact your state or local consumer protection agency for more advice on your state's laws. It’s hard to get out of a deal, just because you want to: you’re bound by the contract.

Chances are good that they will total it, and then the insurance will cover it. Give the car to your 16-year-old. Chances are good that they will total it, and then the insurance will cover it.

Any dealer wants make a profit when they resell your Vibe. Therefore, they have to buy low. Your best bet is to sell it to a private buyer yourself. You'll lose a little, but a lot less than trading it in. If you let a dealer repo, it'll be on your credit for the next 7 years. Don't plan on buying another car or house for at least 4 or 5 years if you do. SOL… Any dealer wants make a profit when they resell your Vibe. Therefore, they have to buy low.

The other 10% allows you the opportunity to roll it over into another car purchase. That makes you WAY upside down in the next car, but if you are confident you are going to keep it... that's not a big issue. You also have the possibility of selling to a sucker... er.. um.. perspective buyer for a "Take over payments" situation. Yu are 90% SOL.

Best best - sell it yourself, but this is tricky to do with all the new car incentives out there. Otherwise, you are probably SOL. Let this be a lesson, however - it is unwise to extend the financing terms in order to buy a car you really can't afford. As a rule of thumb the loan should NEVER be more than 60 months ... but 36 or 48 is ideal. The higher the APR, the shorter the term should be. Good luck.
