Buying a car is a big decision and a major commitment. More often than not, you’ll be tied down with a loan for a few years, so you’ll want to consider all your needs and requirements before selecting the car to buy.
But what if you change your mind and find that the car isn’t the right fit for you? Can you return a car after buying it? Well, at CARSOME you can, and here’s all you need to know about CARSOME’s money-back guarantee.
What Is the CARSOME 5-Day Money-Back Guarantee?
Most of the time, you can’t return a car in Malaysia after you’ve bought it, but at CARSOME, all CARSOME Certified cars come with a five-day money-back guarantee. That means if you change your mind about the used car you bought, you can return it to us within five days for a refund, with no questions asked.
To check if the car is eligible for the five-day money-back guarantee, you can check the inspection report on the car’s listing page. Simply scroll down and you’ll find it here:
Note that only CARSOME Certified cars come with this money-back guarantee as they have gone through a professional refurbishment process at the CARSOME Certified Lab. This refurbishment fixes various mechanical, electrical, and cosmetic issues to give you quality used cars in tip-top condition.
Two car listings labeled “CARSOME Certified” and “CARSOME Value”.

Dos & Don’ts within the Money-Back Guarantee Period
Most of us buy a car to keep it long-term. However, that doesn’t mean that we can’t change our minds if we have a good enough reason. When you buy a car from CARSOME, it’s important to adhere to these requirements within the five-day money-back guarantee period, in case you decide to change your car or return it to us:
- You have not modified or altered the car: There should be no modifications made to the car’s interior or exterior. Everything should be in the same condition as when you received it and all the relevant original documents that you received should be returned as well.
- You have traveled no more than 300 km: The travel distance of the car from the time of delivery must be less than 300 km. If you have racked up more than 300 km of travel on the odometer, the car cannot be returned.
- The car is free from fines and summons: Before returning the car to us, you have to settle any parking fees, traffic fines, or summonses that have been imposed on you within the five days of your car ownership period.
- The car has not been resold or transferred to someone else: The owner who returns the car must be the same person who bought the car from CARSOME.
- The car is returned within five days from the delivery date: If you change your mind about your car purchase, you must return it within five days from the date of delivery in order to get your refund.
