7 Automatic Transmission problem

Failure Date: 01/23/2006

I got the truck January 06, 2006 from the dealership. I signed the paperwork and went home with the truck. The salesperson had told me that I was buying the truck. When they send me my first payment I realize that I was not buying the truck in reality I was leasing the truck. The salesperson completely just lied to me. As soon as I found out how I was lied to by the dealership I return the truck as soon as possible. Now how do they expect me to pay for the truck if I don't even have it.
