The car dealer is not required to collect a down payment. The finance company is the one who usually asks for it. If they desire a down payment, they will contact you to get it.

How long a dealer will hold a car with a down payment depends on the dealer. It is a good idea to get a time frame in writing. Some dealers will sell a car within a couple of days if you do not complete the transaction.
This is not your car. The down payment enables you to have the privilege of a contract. So, pay up.
Sure if the dealer will accept it.

A dealer can do whatever they want, they are not legally obliagted to sell you any car.
Depending on what you signed when you made the down payment, yes. Take a look at any papers you signed. Depending on the size of down, take them to small claims court.
I THINK SO. THE CONTRACT HASN'T BEEN COMPLETED UNTIL THE DOWN PAYMENT IS MADE. HE'LL PROBABLY VOID THE CONTRACT FOR FAILURE OF PAYMENT.
I believe you can get your down-payment back if you do not have the car. But, if the dealer is doing that to sell the car after you have made a downpayment (depending on what the contract/receipt states) then you mave have legal options against the dealer. Some lawyers have free consults. I would contact a lawyer for free consultation before getting my down-payment back because the dealer may have breached a prior agreement/contract, whether verbally or written. State laws may differ.
In Chicago, IL if your car is repossed by the dealer do you still have to pay back the money for the car?
A dealer can not repo the vehicle. The dealer can howecer sue you to get the down payment money if he can prove you owe it.
