Sub-issue: Old information reappears or never goes away

Complaint:
I am trying to get rid of all these hard inquires and late payment accounts and anything in collections that I bringing my credit score down. 

In the past I have applied for car loans but not as much as what appears on my credit report. There are a total of maybe XXXX hard inquires ( if not more ), on my credit report and I no longer have a car nor have I gave dealerships the authorization to send my information to numerous lenders. As far as I was concerned, it was only through " in house financing '', and it seems as if the dealerships did not comply. 

I also recently just paid off a old credit card that had an outstanding balance, and it is still showing up on my credit report as open and more than 90 days late. I received a confirmation from XXXX XXXX stating they did receive the {$120.00} I paid to them to close the account and have it up to date. 

I also had a XXXX XXXX XXXX loan open which had an outstanding balance of over {$1500.00} due to my gap insurance at the time not covering the full balance left. For XXXX years I was able to buy XXXX other cars without the dealerships noticing that open car loan. I showed proof of a total loss letter to dealerships and that is how I got passed that and was able to drive off with a car. 
However, now I am seeking to buy another car, this " open loan '' that I did pay the settlement offer too of {$320.00} ; it is still being showed as open and that I owe {$1500.00}. 

I really want all of these removed from my credit report. I find the inconsistencies absurd, I do understand that credit reports are updated every month, but it just seems as if my credit score has not made any major changes. 

Any hard inquiries from almost XXXX years ago should be removed and fall off. 

In accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting act, I feel as if my rights were violated / 15 U.S.C 1681 Section 602 A. States I have a right to privacy.

15 U.S.C. 1681 Section 604 A. Section 2 also states a consumer reporting agency can not furnish a account without my written instructions.
