There is no buyer’s remorse, cooling-off, or right-to-rescind law that requires the seller of a used car to cancel the sale or accept the return of the car. When you sign the contract for the purchase of the car, you are legally obligated to the purchase. Because of the finality of the purchase agreement (or an offer, acceptance, and the exchange of the payment and the car), it is important to have the car inspected by an independent auto service technician, and carefully read and understand the agreement before you sign it or agree to buy the car.

Some state laws require car dealers to offer extra protections for buyers of used cars—such as a contract cancellation option agreement that the buyer may purchase for an additional fee, and that will allow the buyer to return the car and cancel the contract within a short period of time (2 days).

Used cars are generally sold and purchased “as is,” which means with all of the car’s defects and flaws, and with no warranty. In other words, it is generally caveat emptor—meaning “buyer beware!” But there are currently six states that have some kind of a lemon law (warranty) for used cars: Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, and New York.

In Wyoming, there is no specific buyer's remorse, cooling-off, or right-to-rescind law that obligates a seller to cancel a used car sale or accept a return once the contract is signed. When a buyer signs a contract to purchase a used car, they are legally bound to the terms of that agreement. It is crucial for buyers to have the vehicle inspected by an independent auto service technician and to thoroughly understand the contract before committing to the purchase. Unlike some states that require dealers to offer a contract cancellation option, Wyoming does not mandate such protections. Used cars in Wyoming are typically sold 'as is,' meaning the buyer accepts the vehicle with all existing defects and without any warranty, embodying the principle of 'caveat emptor' or 'buyer beware.' Wyoming is not among the states that have enacted lemon laws for used cars, which provide additional protections and warranties for used car buyers.
