I want to find out who lied and made these horrific accusations because now I'm being investigated for lies. It's embarrassing because cps is telling everyone what I'm being investigated for and it's all a LIE.

Finding out who is going to be tricky, if you don’t already know who it is. CPS will not disclose the identity of the informant and legally they cannot be required to do so. But it may become obvious to you during the course of the investigation.

Since a car can only be a “lemon” if it was purchased new, you could be sued for business disparagement if your sign deters a prospective customer from purchasing a car from the dealership.
