In Connecticut, you can cancel dealer add-on products at any time. You can sue in Small Claims Court for up to $5,000.

Your Cancellation Rights
Under Connecticut Extended Warranty Statute, Connecticut consumers have the right to cancel F&I products purchased from dealers. After this period, you're still entitled to a pro-rata refund based on unused time or mileage.
The law is clear — these products are cancellable and refundable. But dealers count on you not knowing that. Upload your contract to see exactly what you're owed.
