| Video Discription | Car Dealer Illegal Finance Charges and Credit Acceptance Car dealers often try to pass on finance charges to customers, especially those with bad credit. However, the law regulates what finance charges consumers can be made to pay. Dealers often try to scam customers by passing on the "discount" or "bank fee" charged by Credit Acceptance and other lenders that target consumers with low credit scores, inflating the price and cost by thousands. Buyers with bad credit often are taken advantage of by this scam because dealers know they have limited options. Be aware of this scam and know how to spot and avoid being charged illegal finance charges. One way to determine whether or not a fee or charge is a finance charge, is by thinking about it this way: if you were paying for the car in cash, would you have to pay this fee or charge? #Car #cars #lawyer SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE https://www.youtube.com/c/WhitneyLLP By: Daniel W.

It was while selling cars in Maryland that I learned of the ruthless nature of car dealerships, and learned there is only one rule that matters at most dealerships: GET AS MUCH MONEY AS POSSIBLE FROM THE CUSTOMER, TODAY, AND NOTHING ELSE MATTERS. I saw things that I knew were illegal and decided I wanted nothing to do with that. Today, I've sued those same dealers I worked for and others to help cheated consumers fight back. Consumers must know they have more legal rights than they realize, and can take action against dishonest dealers. #dealership #newcars #usedcars Common car dealer problems and scams I help car buyers with include: 1. Car dealer forged the buyer’s signature on a second finance contract. 2. Dealers selling a car without having the title. *happens all the time* 3. Changing the monthly payment and amount financed after the deal is done. 4. False online price advertising when the online price increases at the dealership. 5. Bogus reconditioning and inspection fees for illegal profits. 6. Selling vehicles that did not pass state inspections. 7. Forcing customers to buy extended warranties and vehicle service contracts. 8. Spot Delivery Violations - when financing is not approved: 9. Dealer keeps the down payment although financing is not approved; 10. Dealer sells the trade although financing is not approved; 11. Dealer forces customer to sign a contract with worse terms; and 12. Dealer forces customer to keep the contract and not allow them to cancel. 13. Charging illegal finance charges and passing along exorbitant bank fees. 14. Car dealer does not disclose rental history or other prior commercial use. 15. Credit Application fraud - creating fake jobs or inflating salary. 16. Car dealer runs credit without permission. 17. Car dealer refuses to cancel the extended warranty or steals the refund money. 18. Car dealer uses out of state sister dealership and charges illegal fees and interest. 19. Taking advantage of bad credit and low credit buyers. Common resolutions to car dealer cases once dealers are sued include: 1. Financial restitution including actual damages (meaning actual money the buyer spent). 2. Unwinding the deal, meaning the buyer returns the car and gets all of their money back. 3. Dealer buys the car back for the remaining payoff and returns the down payment and fees. 4. Cancelling a warranty or service contract and getting the refund. 5. Getting the trade-in back. 6. Having the down payment returned. 7. Dealers pay the buyer's attorney’s fees. We do our best to educate consumers as to the common problems and scams with car dealerships and to fight back when buyers are taken advantage of.
