Joseph Eugene Dodson, age sixteen, purchased a used pickup truck

Joseph Eugene Dodson, age sixteen, purchased a used pickup truck from Burns and Mary Shrader. The Shraders owned and operated Shrader’s Auto Sales. Dodson paid $14,900 in cash for the truck. At the time of sale, the Shraders did not question Mr. Dodson’s age, but thought he was eighteen or nineteen. Dodson made no misrepresentation concerning his age. Nine months after the date of purchase, the truck began to develop mechanical problems. A mechanic diagnosed the problem as a burnt valve but could not be certain. Dodson, who could not afford the repairs, continued to drive the truck until one month later, when the engine “blew up.” Dodson parked the vehicle in the front yard of his parents’ home and contacted the Shraders to rescind the purchase of the truck and to request a full refund. The Shraders refused. Explain whether Dodson will be permitted to disaffirm the contract and recover the $4,900.

(a) What arguments would support Dodson’s termination of the contract?

(b) What arguments would support Shrader’s position that the contract is not voidable?

(c) Which side should prevail? Explain
