Find a Cash for Clunker Dealer

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

As of June 2009, the US government is registering dealers for the Cash for Clunker program. However, since monies are limited and the program only runs from July 1, 2009 through November 1, 2009, consumers should not wait for the US government to post a dealer list. Contact car dealers directly and ask if they are enrolling in the CARS program.

Consumers should also be aware that the Cash for Clunker law prohibits dealers from charging fees for cash for clunker transactions. Any dealer attempting to tack on extra charges should be reported to the proper officials.

Negotiations with dealers will be affected by the Cash for Clunker law. Dealers are not allowed to resell trade-in cars and trade-in value will be limited to the scrap metal value of the trade-in vehicle.
