Q: new car from dealership, charges $450 for Tag/title. Per County cost was $99.75, get refunded $45, is this legal?
Daughter bought Car at Grieco Delray, despite submitting W-2 and pay stubs they first say approved 0 down, 3 weeks later need $3k down. Made down payment and they never turned contract into finance company. Approval expired, had to re apply, now APR went from just over 6% to over 9%. Then pushes to sign contract so dealer has someone from dealership go to daughters work for her to sign yet a third contract. She has yet to see a copy of her new contract. Received registration from state in the mail with cost breakdown. Says cost for tag transfer $99.75 so she contacts dealership asking for her refund, does not get reply other than mailed check refund of $44.65. told daughter NOT TO CASH CHECK. Do we/she have an legal rights?
A:
Yes you have legal rights. Do you have sufficient legal damages to justify the pursuit of a case against the dealer is the better question to ask. I suggest that likely no, as a lawyer will cost anywhere from $250.00 per hour to potentially $450.00 per hour or more.
Hope this helps.
