Car salesmen have the power to add all sorts of additional fees to your sales contract, effectively making the price of your car much higher than what you anticipated based on the sticker price. Many of these additional charges are legal and justified, but there are some financing “tricks,” used by dealers that could cost you much more in the long run. Are you aware of how a backdated contract could result in you being double charged by the car dealer?
When a dealership is unable to get a client approved for financing, they call the client back and ask that they return the car or agree to new financing terms. During this process, many dealers backdate the new contract to make it line up with the other terms of the contract. By doing this, they have the dealer has an opportunity to double charge you for interest over the overlapping time period. Unfortunately, many dealers take this opportunity and commit auto fraud against their customers.
If you think that a dealership has double-charged you, consulting with an auto fraud attorney is your best option. Not only are consultations free, but we can typically answer your questions after reviewing your documents. We understand how important it is to take care of the situation and help you get your money back from the car dealership for scamming you as fast as possible.
