My credit was pulled ( 3 ) times by CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE. I didn't consent for CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE to pull my credit multiple times. I had already gotten a pre-approval from CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE in the amount of {$63000.00} so my credit didn't need to be pulled multiple times. Going over the Retail Instalment Agreement I noticed that there was fraud on the contract. The contract stated the Finance Charge is {$10000.00} which according to Truth In Lending Act the finance charge should cover the all fees. On the contract it states " The dollar amount the credit will cost you. '' so with that being said the car was paid for and should be free of all liens. I XXXX  : XXXX the natural living woman is not obligated to make payments to CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE because the vehicle is already paid for. CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE never gave me notice that I had a right recession or a right to cancel.

CAPITAL ONE AUTO FINANCE has not sent me anything regarding my Notice of Right to Recession. 
15 U.S. Code 1601- Congressional findings and declaration of purpose ( a ) Informed use of credit The Congress finds that economic stabilization would be enhanced and the competition among the various financial institutions and other firms engaged in the extension of consumer credit would be strengthened by the informed use of credit. The informed use of credit results from an awareness of the cost thereof by consumers. It is the purpose of this subchapter to assure a meaningful disclosure of credit terms so that the consumer will be able to compare more readily the various credit terms available to him and avoid the uninformed use of credit, and to protect the consumer against inaccurate and unfair credit billing and credit card practices. 
( b ) Terms of personal property leases The Congress also finds that there has been a recent trend toward leasing automobiles and other durable goods for consumer use as an alternative to installment credit sales and that these leases have been offered without adequate cost disclosures. It is the purpose of this subchapter to assure a meaningful disclosure of the terms of leases of personal property for personal, family, or household purposes so as to enable the lessee to compare more readily the various lease terms available to him, limit balloon payments in consumer leasing, enable comparison of lease terms with credit terms where appropriate, and to assure meaningful and accurate disclosures of lease terms in advertisements.
