Complaint:
XX/XX/XXXX, i visited XXXX XXXX to purchase a vehicle. I told the manager after agreeing on a price that i wanted to use GM financial for the 0 % promotion that was advertised during that time and if i can not get approved for that than i was only going to use my financial banking institution ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). They agreed to the terms. XXXX wanted 7 % and i declined that offer so XXXX ( the finance guy ) and I agreed to the terms of XXXX for credit loan approval. I signed the contract and left with the vehicle. I called on XX/XX/XXXX to follow up with the spray in bed liner which was owed to me as part of the deal and i was told they will call me back. I called again on XX/XX/XXXX because no one contacted me for the bed liner. At that time, XXXX XXXX ( the sales agent ) told me that the deal was declined by XXXX and the needed a co signer to proceed with XXXX. I was then contacted by XXXX ( the  XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX and he said that we can get you approve as a single owner through GM at 7 % for 635 monthly. I told him that i am not going to do that. on XX/XX/XXXX i returned the truck and XXXX took the keys. After i left, XXXX and XXXX called me several times threatening me with coming back to pick up the truck because they had worked out a deal with GM to meet the terms of XXXX on the original contract. I told them that i did not approve or authorize that and they can not change anything on my signed contract without my knowledge or approval. and XXXX told me that is not true, we can do whatever we want and i will be receiving payments from GM. I called GM on XX/XX/XXXX and they told me i did not have an account or loan at that time.. I made them aware of what the dealer was trying to do and they assured me that they did not have anything in my name at that time. on XX/XX/XXXX i received a letter from Gm stating I now had an account and payments due for a truck i no longer have in my possession. I notified GM on XX/XX/XXXX that this account was fraudulent acquired from XXXX XXXX without my approval and that i had already returned the truck to the dealership on XX/XX/XXXX. they said the application sent to them by the dealer shows XXXX XXXX XXXX but it has been scratched or crossed out and someone wrote Gm on the line on the contract and they can not close the account without proof the dealer obtained and or submitted it without my knowledge and or permission. I informed them that i still have my original paperwork and i do not have any marks on my contract showing XXXX being scratched off. I returned to the dealer per GM request to get them to reverse the deal and get the paperwork of what was submitted by them and the dealer refused to show me the contract they sent to GM and would not reverse the deal, instead tried to give me the keys to the vehicle that i do not want or need. i told them i was not taking possession of a vehicle that they fraudulent obtained financing on and left the property.
