Auto Fraud, Car Dealer Fraud,
& Unfair Trade Practices
Forcing Accountability for Dealerships That Rely on Deception
At Oklahoma Consumer Law Firm, we hold car dealerships accountable when they engage in deceptive, misleading, or unlawful practices. Auto fraud is not rare. It is their business model.
Every day, Oklahoma car buyers walk away from dealerships thinking they have made a fair deal, only to discover hidden damage, forged signatures, inflated interest rates, or financing that was never truly approved. These business practices are not only unconscionable.
According to the National Consumer Law Center, the real profits for dealers lie just beyond new car sales. With services like financing, insurance, repairs, and add-on products, dealerships aren’t just selling cars – they’re selling confusion.
Dealerships make money when you do not understand the deal. In addition, many dealerships use pressure tactics to rush buyers into signing contracts before questions can be asked.
You Might Be A Victim Of Auto Fraud In Oklahoma, If:
The car dealership sold you a previously wrecked or damaged car without disclosing the damage.
The dealership sold a used car as a “new” car.
The dealership sold you a “lemon” buy-back without disclosing that to you.
You found the odometer had been rolled back.
The dealership did not disclose previous flood damage.
The dealership did not disclose the vehicle has a salvaged title.
The dealership tells you that financing fell through after telling you that the financing was previously approved.
The dealership fails to provide you with a title within 60 days of the purchase.
The dealership fails to return your trade-in vehicle or down payment after informing you that financing was not approved. This tactic is known as yo-yo financing.
You were sold a previously wrecked vehicle as “certified pre-owned.”
The dealership is threatening repossession if you do not come in to sign new loan documents.
You found the price and terms you agreed on at the time of purchase are different from the price and terms of the loan with the lender. This is known as bait-and-switch price tactics.
