   I bought a product from a door-to-door salesman. Can I get my money back?
About a month ago, a salesman came to my door selling vacuum cleaners. I bought it, and it worked the fine the first few times I used it, but now the switch doesn't even turn it on. I would like to return it and get my money back. Can I do this?

My son talked me into co-signing a loan for a car with him. However, he has just lost his job and cannot make the payments. I am on Social Security and a pension, and so cannot afford the payments either. What should I do?
