Anyone buy their car with arbitration clause? Seems I did :shrug: I was rather hasty in my car purchase, and after burning a couple of hours at the dealership, and going through a tedious stack of papers, this gem got dropped on me near the end of the process, and I hadn't given it any thought beforehand. They gave me the slick sales "this is the standard now" and "everyone is doing it", and "we can't sell you the car if you don't sign". I don't envision a Lemon Law / sue situation but I am little annoyed at voluntarily giving up my rights, particularly if it was avoidable. Any potential impact on Lemon Law?

Are you giving up your right to sue without knowing it?
When you buy, you may be agreeing to arbitration terms that tip the scales against you

Limited rights
The clause said that the parties agree to use arbitration as the exclusive method to settle any claims, including those involving consumer fraud, Lemon Law, and Truth in Lending.
No class actions
Preliminary survey results by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau show that *almost all mandatory, binding arbitration agreements for financial products and *services, including credit cards and checking accounts, bar class actions
