Issue: Getting a loan or lease

Subissue: Credit denial

Consumer Complaint: Earlier this afternoon and after deciding to purchase a new XXXX XXXX truck after having an opportunity to experience the new unit my son purchased just last week, I proceeded to apply online with Chrysler Capital directly in order to take advantage of the manufacturer 's 0 % interest for 72 month with 90 day free payment offer which expires at the end of the day today. Unfortunately shortly after applying, I received a denial email yet after contacting Chrysler Capital to inquire why my application was denied as to understand the reason for it since my credit history and score are both excellent ; I was told that Chrysler Capital although they take online consumer applications they will not discuss these directly with the applicant and have referred me to a local dealer which as part of this manufacturer 's application process they force you to select even though you might not be purchasing the vehicle from them. That said and as a consumer, not only do I have the right to know directly from who is processing my application why it is being denied instead of having to contact one of their local dealers who is asking me to submit another loan application so they can present it to an undisclosed number of lenders which will end up damaging my credit history and score. Not only is this unacceptable but I believe it is an unfair business practice should be investigated. I appreciate your consideration to this request and look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you...

Issue: Managing the loan or lease

Subissue: Billing problem

Consumer Complaint: I mailed XXXX XXXX XXXX as well as Santander the same letter : Upon carefully viewing my contract, I am highly offended that you, car salesman name, finance manager name, and dealership name and DBA, decided to lie to me to complete a transaction instead of being clear and conspicuous throughout the process. That is a violation of 15 USC 1601. I have found more things to be fraudulent in my contract. I would first like to talk about the vehicle price. One cash price shows the vehicle purchase price for XXXX ; however, it also shows that price for the retail value of the vehicle as well. The cash price on the sticker of the vehicle shows XXXX. That is the only price I was made aware of during the buying process because there was no negotiation needed, only a test drive. The cash price listed on my bill of sale is XXXX, which is higher than what was discussed. Upon receipt of my Federal Truth-In-Lending Disclosure, the cash price shows XXXX. I am aware that price has interest added to it ; however, subtracting the interest would not put me at the price I was aware of during the buying process. When making my purchase, I was told that the price of my car is what is listed on the sticker, XXXX. My question to you what is the real price of my car really considering there are FOUR different cash prices listed? Raising or lowering the price without making it clear and conspicuous to my knowledge is illegal. It is fraudulent activity because I was not made aware of this notice. You changed the price FOUR separate times on my contract. Please refer to 15 USC 1611 in reference to fraudulent activity. That alone is enough to make my contract VOID, you be fined and/or have possible jail time ; however, I am going to continue telling you how you have lied and disrespected to me. If you reference to 15 USC 1605, upon looking at the Federal Truth-In-Lending Disclosure of my contract, I notice that the finance charge on my contract is separate ; however, according to federal law, the finance charge is said to be determined as the sum of all charges. In addition to that, the finance charge does not include charges of a type payable in comparable to cash transaction. What that means is cash should have been excluded from my transaction ; however, it was not. I was lied to and told a down payment was mandatory, so I presented an amount of XXXX. It was not made clearly and conspicuously to me that a down payment was not needed. Again, that is important because it is in violation of 15 USC 1605. Also, in violation of 15 USC 1605, I was not offered insurance. Per my contract, it says N/A ; however, it was not made clear and conspicuous to me that insurance is supposed to be provided in the finance charge. Not offering me insurance is illegal. According to 15 USC 1635, I had the right to rescind my contract by midnight on the third business day of me buying my vehicle ; however, you did not make it clear and conspicuous to me that I had that choice. Per my contract, it says no cooling off period ; however, per federal law, which is illegal. I have until midnight on the third business day to rescind ; however, you did not make that clear and conspicuous to me during the process. Due to this being a manner of fraud, I have contacted the attorney general about this matter. 15 USC 1611 states that you are at criminal liability for willfully and knowingly violating my rights. You listed false information in my contract by changing the cash price numerous times. You verbally told me false information by making me pay a down payment. You also did not provide me with insurance as well as the right to rescind my contract. You charged me an extra finance charge when in actuality the finance charge is supposed to be the sum total of all charges. This matter can be resolved without any further legal action. Due to you lying to me and violating my rights to complete a sale, I would first like to rescind my contract. The next thing I would like to do is demand my down payment back in full for XXXX. In addition, I would like to demand double my finance charge. My finance charge is XXXXX and double that is XXXX. The total I am demanding to be paid to me is XXXX. In addition to receiving my down payment and double my finance charge, I am demanding that my title be released to me. 15 USC 1635 lets me know that I am in the right with my demands. An invoice has also been sent as well about where/how you can send payment. If this matter is not resolved within 20 days, I will then be moving forward to settle this matter in court, which will then result in you covering court costs, lawyer fees, and {$1000.00} per violation that has been placed on my credit report. I look forward to overseeing this matter in a civilized manner. Thank You!

Consumer Complaint: Santander has obtained my personal account information, violated my confidentiality by falsely reporting fraudulent information on my credit report. I have the documents necessary to substantiate this claim. This very dishonest, Santander Consumer has also defrauded with XXXX XXXX XXXX to illegally and deceptively obtain money that was due to me. From the application of credit ( for the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) I have requested a validation of this alleged debt resulting in them ( Santander Consumer ) sending a null and voided contract. I also reported the credit to IRS via 1099b. Santander has also voided and rescinded and purchase ( XX/XX/2022 ) I can show receipts of payment history because I actually had been in honor of the contract. However for the initial purchase of the first vehicle ( XXXX XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/2022 ) there was never one payment because Santander XXXX rescinded that contract, I have no payment history with Santander obviously because I reported them to IRS, yet Santander has an animated payment history. I can prove fraud. I want the XXXX Santander Consumer has defrauded my insurance company for, I have been injured as a result. XXXX XXXX has the false payment history I also has copies.
