    Reaffirmed vehicle...now I don't want it!

    I *think* I already know the answer, but I want to make sure.

    Back in Nov, we bought a Cadillac Escalade...not the smartest move we've ever made, but at the time, hubby was making good money. Fast forward, we filed bankruptcy and decided to reaffirm it because I still needed a car to drive.

    Now, the gas is killing us and we want something different. We reaffirmed it, am I SOL? I have this feeling I am.

    We tried trading it in, but we owe a little under $19K and it's worth about $8K trade in value.

    We're thinking about buying another car, keeping the Escalade in the garage for awhile, pay down on it, and then trade it in for a car for my husband in a few months.

    Any ideas?

    When exactly did you sign the reaffirmation agreement? When was it filed with the courts?

      We signed it in May, it was filed June 12th. We're already discharged, so I'm thinkin' I'm SOL on this one.

        Unfortunatly, you are, but just by a few days it seems. You had 60 day from when it was filed to recind it. Sorry.

          I believe you are. At this time, the reaffirmation in default can be sue able. 'Hub

            Agree with pp. See if you can find someone willing to take over your loan.

              I suppose I can't just send a recind now, can I? LOL It's only a few days....

              I didn't know we could recind after discharge. Thanks everyone!
