Auto Fraud
Auto fraud occurs when a dealer misrepresents, hides, or fails to disclose key information about the sale of a new or used vehicle. You may have a valid claim even if the misrepresentation wasn’t in writing, if the dealer made misleading verbal statements to you.
Understanding Your Rights Under California Auto Fraud Law
As a consumer in California, you have specific rights when purchasing a vehicle from a retail auto dealer. These rights are designed to protect you from deceptive practices and ensure transparency throughout the transaction. Here are some key rights you are entitled to under California auto fraud laws:
- Buyer's Guide: You are entitled to a copy of the Buyer's Guide, which provides essential details about the vehicle and the sale terms.
- Transaction Documents: You must receive copies of all documents you signed during the transaction.
- Accurate Payment Information: Dealers must provide accurate payment details, including the correct interest rate. You should not be charged higher interest due to any 'calculation errors.'
- Previous Buyback Disclosure: If the vehicle was previously bought back under the Lemon Law, this information must be disclosed.
- Prior Use Disclosure: Dealers must disclose any prior use of the vehicle, such as if it was used as a rental car.
- Odometer Accuracy: You are entitled to an accurate odometer reading. If the odometer has been tampered with, the actual mileage must be disclosed.
- Accident History: Any significant accidents the vehicle was involved in must be disclosed to you.
- Consolidated Contract: All information about the transaction should be included in a single, comprehensive contract.
