Dealer Scam? Need advise.
I need some advise.
I bought my car back in April of this year. 1000.00 cash downpayment, contract signed and good to go right?
Not so fast... I received a letter about a week ago from the dealer collection department claiming that I still owed the 1000.00 downpayment. Furious as hell I called the number on the letter. A lady answered.
Lady: How did you pay?
Me: Cash.
Lady: Do you have a receipt?
Me: I didn't know I was supposed to have a receipt.
Lady: I'll look into it and call you back.
Me: Sure.
Then I get a call from the dealer saying that they never received the payment and it's overdue and it needs to be taken care of right away. I told them you must be crazy. I'm not paying additional 1000.00! He said we'll see you in court then and hung up...
I re-read the contract and in the line where it said Downpayment it clearly states "$1000.00 cash". And the total invoice was deducted 1000.00. I just spoke to a lawyer and he said they (dealer) will probably take me to small claims court in which case he cannot represent me.
What should I do???
