Consumer Complaint: I XXXX XXXX had ownership of a car from credit acceptence and I traded the car in at a dealership called XXXX XXXX in XXXX, NewYork part of XXXX. The dealer I gave the car to at XXXX XXXX never paid off the car, He never cut credit acceptence a check for the pay off amount for the car. The dealer ended up robbing XXXX XXXX of all the files and car deals that he made for the company. So, he stole my files to the car and any evidence that I traded in the car owned by credit acceptence. He ended up consequently getting my trade in car from credit acceptence reposssed off of the XXXX XXXX car lot. He called me months later after asking if I had the car, he knew that I didnt. I went to confront him and he was gone, the XXXX XXXX vanished I arrived to find out that a different LLC had taken ownership of that dealership. I now am stuck with the debt of XXXX being negatively affecting my credit profile. I have spoken to several representative at Credit Acceptance in relation to this matter. I also had the attorney general of Florida file a complaint on this dealers conduct. Also during the transaction of trading in the vehicle in the year between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX I requested that the president of Credit Acceptence get involve in this unfortunate event of my car buying experience, the president of Credit Acceptence bank called the dealer several time to try to get the dealer to cut the check in the amount of the trade in but the dealer at XXXX XXXX kept ignoring his phone calls, the president of credit acceptence did not make any notes on his attempts to reach the dealership on my account. I had paid the Car note prior to trading in the car owned by Credit Acceptance. I do not have any paper work to prove this complaint since XXXX XXXX vanished along with the dealer.

Consumer Complaint: I received a auto loan from Credit Acceptance in XX/XX/XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX Credit Acceptance sent for my car to be repossessed. I was forced to pay over {$300.00} to get my car back. Upon investigation of their claim of a past due amount, Credit Acceptance admitted that the REPOSSESSION was an error, and my account would be credited for the repossession/ storage fees. I paid the loan off in XX/XX/XXXX. The lender claimed I still owed money in XX/XX/XXXX, so I requested a detailed statement of account payments. The information provided was not clear and only confused matters. So I added all payment amounts posted by Credit Acceptance and it showed I was all paid up but they still refuse to release my title to car. In XX/XX/XXXX, Credit Acceptance sent a repossession company to my house to extort me for a payment or they was going have them take the car. They also reported to the major credit reporting agencies false information, claiming account is closed even though there is a clear dispute with regards to amounts left on record as owed. Credit Acceptance still have not released the title to my car and they continue to have negative remarks on my credit reports preventing me from getting future loans and better rates or services.

Consumer Complaint: This is back in XXXX XXXX Virginia where me and my wife were going to check out a dealership called XXXX XXXX that was sending advertisements in the mail. We were gon na trade in our car for a more newer one. We were given an offer for them to buy our car and sell us a newer one. But at a much higher price. We did end up signing some paper work for them to see my credit score and see what they can do. Was n't good enough so we wanted to leave. They keeped pressuring us to do it and to use our credit cards or to contact family for money. After six hours trying to leave we had enough and told them no and asked for our keys back. They did not look happy. A day or two goes by and I check my credit score showing it went down about 35 to 40 points because I had two hard pulls from two different creditors for the used vehicle loan. It said I was denied when I did n't even go through with the dealership. Oh they also had me try to get a loan from XXXX so I also have that on XXXX credit score. Three hard pulls on the same day. One from XXXX XXXX, another from XXXX XXXX CO, and the last one from XXXX. All on the XXXX XXXX 2017. There is no amount because I was denied.

Subissue: Problem with the interest rate
Consumer Complaint: I bought a car through XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX FL several years ago through credit acceptance. I have paid extra money plus regular payments charged per month. They have charged me extremely high interest and fees making difficult to pay loan off. I have called financing company to lower interest but no such luck. car loan is automatically taken out of bank account. I have never been late paying nor never missed a payment. In addition they have put non accurate information on credit report for amount paid. Since purchasing car XXXX XXXX went out of business. I think it should be illegal to charge so much interest and fees against people with low credit. I am XXXX veteran and feel there is no end in sight of ever paying off credit acceptance.

Consumer Complaint: I am writing this letter on behalf of my father. I am his daughter and I just became care taker of his finances on XXXX XXXX, XXXX after he was hospitalized XXXX XXXX, XXXX. As I am currently reviewing my fathers finances, I came across his car note. I have many concerns about the contract being that my father is on a fixed income. He is requesting a reduction in the interest rate on the car payments. He requests you to reduce the current interest rate of 24.01 % to a more reasonable rate of 3.95 % so it is more in line with the current market rate for used cars. We have visited the websites of several competitors and notice that they are offering an interest rate much lower than what he is currently receiving. He stated that the whole process was confusing because of the electronic signature process. He was XXXX XXXX XXXX at the time and does not have a good understanding on todays technologies. After reviewing this information with my father, we feel that this contract is unfair. There is a scam that unscrupulous salesmen and load companies play on the elderly and I am hoping this is not the case. My father have been a solid customer with your company for the past 20 months and would appreciate your consideration of a lower rate on his account. You will find that he maintained an excellent history of payment with your company and would appreciate your consideration of a lowered rate at this time.
