dealership stealing gap warranty money 300x200 - Car Dealership Fraud Attorney Serving Severn, MDLocated in Anne Arundel County, Severn has a population of over 50,000. It is a Maryland community with an active suburban feel and close proximity to Baltimore as well as other nearby towns like Linthicum Heights, Patapsco and Odenton. If you are shopping for a new or used car or truck in Severn, you may visit one of the community’s numerous car dealerships. You’ll find Toyota, Chevrolet and Jeep dealers in the area.

When you walk into a car dealership, you should be able to trust that you are being told the truth about payment terms and related details. However, some consumers later find out that the dealers they went to were unethical and even fraudulent, resorting to forgery, false online advertising, misrepresentation, lying and overcharging to wring unearned income from the pockets of well-meaning consumers. This is when having an attorney’s assistance can be crucial.

If you purchased your car in Severn and later learned that the dealership was lying about the condition, hidden damage, accidents, flood damage or salvage history, the price or other material factors, you can turn to a lawyer to sue a car dealership. At Whitney, LLP, our experienced auto fraud lawyers can help you fight for compensation and demand accountability from those responsible.

Severn, MD, Lawyer to Sue a Car Dealership Near Me

Car dealers in Maryland have a legal responsibility to accurately represent the cars they are selling and the financial terms of any contract that you sign. They must tell you the truth about the price of the vehicle and the financing terms involved in your payment. However, you may think you got a great deal only to drive home and learn later that a Severn or Linthicum Heights dealer was lying.

Some unethical car dealerships may sell you a previously returned or even damaged vehicle after it came back onto their lot following a failed transaction. They may claim that the car is new and that extra miles on the odometer are simply due to delivery, test drives or dealer use. The original sale may have fallen apart due to other types of deception, such as an undisclosed defect or overcharging for financing. If you have been harmed due to a Patapsco or Severn car dealership’s misrepresentation, you can contact the car dealership fraud lawyers at Whitney, LLP. Our skilled attorneys can help you take action by suing a car dealership for compensation.

Other Severn or Odenton car dealers attempt to defraud customers in other ways. They could falsely claim that extra features or safety options are part of the car. This is especially likely with safety options and other internal features, such as GPS, where their absence will only become apparent to a consumer after the car is taken to a mechanic or is used for a few weeks.

Severn, MD, Lawyer for Auto Dealer Forgery and Fraud

For other victims of auto fraud, the car itself may be fine. However, the contract and financing terms could contain false information or excessive fees. You could even ask yourself, was the dealer forging my signature or using forged initials on contracts? Unfortunately, forged initials and fake signatures are often added to a second, forged buyer’s order and financing contract.

Fraudulent dealers may do this to hide or increase interest rates, change the monthly payment and make it higher, or change or remove other terms and after market products such as extended warranties and GAP insurance in order to steal and make an additional profit.  This type of forgery and fraud is against the law. If you found out that a car dealer was forging your signature or any other dishonest act, contact Whitney, LLP’s auto fraud attorneys to take action.

You should not have to pay the price and shoulder the burden of a fraudulent purchase because of an unethical car dealership. The skilled auto misrepresentation and fraud attorneys at Whitney, LLP, can stand up for you, find out the real story about your vehicle and fight hard for the compensation you deserve.
