Yes, you can sue a dealership for selling you a bad car. If the dealership knowingly sold you a car with significant defects, you may be able to recover damages for the cost of repairs, the loss of use of your car, and any other losses you have suffered.

To sue a dealership, you will need to file a lawsuit in court. You will need to allege that the dealership made false or misleading statements about the car, that the car was defective, and that you suffered damages as a result. You will also need to provide evidence to support your claims. There are specific laws in Wisconsin that regulate Wisconsin automobile dealerships. 

If you are successful in your lawsuit, you may be able to recover damages for the cost of repairs, the loss of use of your car, and any other losses you have suffered. You may also be able to recover punitive damages, which are designed to punish the dealership for its wrongdoing.
