Hyundai Getz 2004: Low trade-in value

When we recently wanted to trade-in our 2004 Hyundai Getz it was valued at $1500 because, we were told, of hail damage. We'd paid $10,000 for it in 2010 and were not told then it was hail damaged. If we had known that it had been hail damaged we would not have purchased this car. What can we do about this?

The trade-in value for the 2004 Getz is $2700 to $6000 depending on the model, so the value you have been quoted is well down on what you could expect. Ask the dealer to show you the hail damage, in other words have him justify his valuation, or better still shop around at other dealers.
