Sacramento, CA asked in Contracts and Consumer Law for Michigan

Q: My travel trailer is past due and the company that matched me with a buyer will not repossess from the party that has it

In 2016 I agreed to allow someone that Coast to Coast RV and Coach matched me with to assume my trailer payments. We signed a contract and the contract states that if the buyer defaults coast to coast will repossess the trailer at their expense and try to match me with a new buyer. Now the trailer is 3 months past due and coast to coast refuses to go pick the trailer up. There is GPS on the trailer so they know where it is at and they know its past due. I call and email and I'm completely ignored. Through research I have found 4 other people that are in very similar situations with Coast to coast. Some who have also not been able to get their property back and some who have put down deposits of $2,500 while trying to find a trailer to take over the payments on and they were never refunded when a trailer was not found. I need help to get my trailer back.

The trailer is in West Virginia. Coast to Coast is in Michigan or New York and I'm in California.

A: I suggest you contact a consumer lawyer in Michigan to review the contract you have with Coast to Coast. Your legal rights largely depend on the contractual language.
