Will they (or the dealerships) buy back all of the big dealer markups? Don't bet on it.

Probably not a single Volt was sold at list price.....and, IMO, it was a rip-off even at list.

So you get 100% of the money paid back or just what they feel its worth?

Doubt it, they will probably only offer fair market value or less for it back.

And to think that a broken steering column was the only problem on the one I tested. If I had bought a Volt I wouldn't be selling it back to GM
