flag California passes new used car rules allowing 3-day returns under $50K, boosting transparency and affordability.

flag California has passed landmark car-buying reforms, allowing buyers to return used vehicles within three days for a full refund if priced under $50,000, with dealers able to charge a restocking fee. flag The law, signed by Governor Newsom, requires dealers to display actual vehicle prices and clearly disclose financing and lease terms to combat deceptive practices. flag It takes effect in October and is part of broader efforts to boost transparency and affordability, especially in the used car market. flag While consumer advocates praised the move, auto dealers criticized the governor’s veto of a separate bill allowing higher document fees. flag The legislation also updates the state’s lemon law, with varying consumer protections depending on the manufacturer. flag Lawmakers expect further action in 2026 to support California’s zero-emission vehicle goals amid federal opposition.
