We Can Help You Fight Back Against Auto Dealer Fraud

Buying a car can and should be a fun and exciting experience. Unfortunately, sometimes that experience can turn into a real nightmare if it turns out that the car dealer acted in a fraudulent manner.

At Waddell Law Firm LLC, we understand the emotions that arise when a car deal goes bad or you feel like you have been scammed by a dishonest dealer. Auto dealer fraud generally describes deceptive and unlawful practices used by automobile dealers. We can help you enforce your legal rights if you are the victim of this type of fraud. We are not afraid to go up against any dealer when fraud has occurred at the expense of our clients.

Common Types Of Auto Dealer Fraud

Auto dealers and manufacturers can commit fraud in various ways. The most common examples we see and litigate in Missouri and Kansas involve:

  • Deceptive advertising
  • Illegal add-on fees and charges
  • Failing to honor or refusing in bad faith to honor warranties and extended service contracts sold on vehicles
  • Failing to deliver the vehicle’s title within the requisite amount of time
  • Intentionally withholding known information about prior wrecks and damage
  • Forging sales documents
  • Yo-yo financing scams (dealers and finance companies promising and agreeing to certain interest rates and other financial terms, then later attempting to force changes in those terms upon a consumer after the sale is already consummated and the vehicle is delivered)

An auto dealer can commit auto fraud in many other ways. The best way to defend yourself against auto dealer fraud is to be a well-informed consumer and contact us as soon as you believe something is not right.
