Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

 Me and my husband bought a car from this company. It was apparently a drug repossession due to the fact after we bought it we realized every seat and panel had been removed and not put back. The back seat want attached to the floor and my kids set there. The front seats where crooked and not bolted down. Twice in one week the breaks locked up, in the rain, and threw us in the ditch spinning out of control. One of those times my kids where in the car. This car was extremely dangerous so we decided to give it back after paying for it over a year. Mind you in a good driver with nothing on my record. Not even a speeding violation. I was the co signor and they are harrasing me and trying to garnish anything they can. Im a mother of 3 with no job and in terrified they will take the only car I have. I cannot afford to pay them when my only income is child support.

A repossession doesn't wipe out the debt

Time for a little bit of reality.  When you returned the vehicle, it DOES NOT EXTINGUISH THE DEBT.  What do I mean by that statement?  It means that you are still responsible for repayment of the money you borrowed to buy the vehicle.  The purchase contract for the vehicle and the loan are two different things. Once you return the vehicle, the dealer then sells it (at auction usually) for pennies on the dollar and you are responsible for repaying the balance due on the loan per the loan contract you signed.  In addition to the deficiency amount of the loan, you are also responsible for collection expenses including attorney fees, repo fees and any other fee allowed by the financing agreement you signed. By the way, this  is standard for all vehicle contracts so you aren't being singled out at all. Take some time to research your responsibilities and possible remedies. 

PS The previous rebuttal is also right. You could have saved yourself a lot of time, trouble and money by doing a test drive before you negotiated and signed a contract to purchase this vehicle.

Test Drive

Did you even bother to test drive this thing?  You say the seats were crooked.  Fairly obvious, right?  Why didn't you see that in a TEST DRIVE and move on to another car?  Your only income is child support?  Why doesn't your husband work?  Why can't you work?  Looks to me you couldn't even afford this car and that's why you're in a VOLUNTARY REPO.  Oh by the way...the word is "BRAKES"!
