I have a 2009 Nissan Frontier. My wife recently had a stroke and is unable to get into the vehicle. We have another car she is able to get into. She is unable to drive, so I am the primary driver. We no longer need the Frontier. How do I turn it in or can I exchange it for a different vehicle she can get in and out of?

You start by asking the dealer about the details of turning it in and/or trading it. They may or may not help. The finance company may be able to help.

Hello x:

You SELL the car, pay off the loan, and get a car you want/need.

yes, first who has the "loan" you can't just turn a car in, it does not work that way. You owe money on THAT vechile and they are under no obligation to do anything but get paid.

If it was bought and the loan is though the dealer, ( like a buy here / pay here) type of place, they will often let you trade to another vechile , and of course get the better deal our of it.

If there is a bank or finance company loan, then you either have to merely buy another vechile, trading that one in ( assuming it is worth more than the value) or you sell it to someone and pay the loan off.
