Company: BMW Financial Services NA, LLC (FL)

BMW Financial Services XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, OH XXXX This organization has been reporting every year that I owe them {$18000.00} for the last four years.

Below there is the BMW dealers response to the XXXX XXXX XXXX   inquiry on my behalf that explains more detail. I purchased a used car from BMW and had immediate problems with it, so I returned to the dealer shortly after purchase. 
I gave them a {$2500.00} down payment for this car and returned the car weeks after purchase.. 
They gave me no credit for the returned car and have been reporting to the credit agencies that I owe the total original sales price less the {$2500.00} down payment. 
I only realize they were generating this false and damaging information recently. 
XXXX approached them and they refused to change the false information. 
I have tried many times to get them to change their reporting information, but they refuse to do that or even respond to me. 

The following is a recent letter authored by me to the XXXX XXXX XXXX : The dealer made the financial arrangements with BMW Financial Services for me and for that I am sure they benefited.

Therefore, I believe they should contact BMW Financial Services and clear this matter up. 
XXXX has contacted BMW Financial Services on my behalf to no avail.

The letter below corroborates that fact that I returned the car as I originally stated.

XXXX  " Disputed my claim directly with BMW Financial Services and the " Dispute Results '' Report from XXXX # XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX showed that BMW Financial Services would not correct their reporting information to the credit services. 
This false data being reported has been damaging my credit rating for four years.

It is apparent that the BMW dealer ( as stated in letter below ) can verify that BMW Financial Services received the car back from me. 
The letter below from the BMW dealer advises me to contact BMW Financial Services to correct the information. But to reiterate I already failed to get any results from BMW Financial Services via XXXX or through my personal efforts.
