Complaint: Lessee wishes to file complaint against lessor Ally XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX, MN XXXX regarding a leased XXXX XXXX XXXX. Lessee had vehicle detailed professionally which included removal of all minor dents and scratches. This process involved an insurance claim. Work was performed by a professional collision shop. Vehicle was turned in at leasing dealership onXX/XX/XXXX and the odometer read XXXX. The allowed extra mileage purchased was XXXX. The dealership confirmed it was in excellent condition and ally offered me to purchase for {$10000.00}. I took photos of the vehicle and turned it in. OnXX/XX/XXXX Ally hired inviso to perform a vehicle inspection. The inspection company took photos of the vehicle. They took a picture of a clean seat and cited it was soiled. A photo of the front of the vehicle exhibits a clean reflective scene of the pavement. They cited the '' front bumper had previous repairwork which was ok '' but claimed hood dents and chips but give no photo evidence. The front has never had collision repairs. They cited " rear bumper scuffed entire ''. Photo shows a flawless finish and no visible damage. " Decklid previous repair ok. The decklid has never been damaged or repaired. Lessee contends the vehicle inspection was done errorniously. OnXX/XX/XXXXAlly sent a letter asking me to sign an odometer statement and billed me for {$200.00} citing on this inspection " the left quarter panel had previous poor repairs and has orange peeling ''. The left quarter panel has never been damaged and the inspection photo does not exhibit any visible damage. I immediately contacted Ally to dispute the inspection and the billed charge. I discussed the lessee rights per the lease to allow for an independent inspection however I was informed by Ally that they sold the vehicle at wholesale auction for {$7700.00} immediately after the inspection. I explained should there be any alleged damage or flaw in the vehicle I would have had the collision repair shop that detailed it to fix it as they guarantee they 're work. I argued with Ally that know reputable body shop is going to leave some type of orange scratch or clearcoat peeling on a vehicle-nor would the insurance company allow for any inferior repair work. It makes no sense and I felt the inspector made an error in judgement or since they photo shows no close up or visible issue that they companies were acting in bad faith. The inspection and subsequent charges are false and frivolous. Ally could not provide proof of any repairs made. Ally has informed me via telephone they stand by the charge. They only charge to me is for the alleged quarter panel however the inspection cites charges for the rear bumper and hood however their own photos show no proof of any type of issue.
