Angry spouse can’t stop wife’s purchase

Dear Terry,
My wife purchased a car in Virginia and drove it home. I was furious at what she paid. Can it be returned and the contract voided?

Dear William,
Assuming your wife is an adult, she can make decisions and purchases independent of you. There are no grounds for returning the vehicle.

Here are this week’s reader questions:

Car odometer may be robbing your cash
Who can help solve my loan fiasco?
Can I void my wife’s car contract?
Will bad credit sabotage my trade-in?
