Product: Vehicle loan or lease — Loan
Issue: Struggling to pay your loan — Lender trying to repossess or disable the vehicle
Company: American Credit Acceptance, LLC
State: TX

Complaint narrative:
I have tried to get refinancing with another lender but my XXXX situation is too poor. So then I was given option by the company that's trying to repossess the car to go to a local dealer and do a settlement/buy back and that the dealership could put me in another car with better monthly payments. I did that and the dealership did an appraisal and offered XXXX which is a lot better than the over XXXX I am arrears. I sent this offer to them. I waited to see what they thought. They obviously did not like the offer and I only learned that when I had to call. At first, they claimed that the offer was without pictures to show there were no damages on the body which seemed XXXX since a dealership would not offer that much if that was the case. I believe they just wanted pictures so they can located it and have it picked up! But I took the pictures and sent them and again nothing from them. After again calling them they claimed they accepted the offer and were sending me the agreement, etc and that I was to sign them. But all I ever got was another bill. I was fired and denied unemployment benefits in the most XXXX XXXX state that is Texas and it just got to a point I could no longer make the payments. I am working again but it will be a while before I can get caught up and them taking the car will not help. They claim that even if the car is picked up I am still responsible for payments and other charges which is extremely XXXX because if I have no car I can't get to work as a XXXX teacher  where I am not at XXXX location all the time or even able to take numerous buses to get to an assignment or buses at all as certain areas in the district don't have bus routes. If I can't work I can't start making payments again which is all I am asking them ... to just a suspensions of the payments I missed and just pay what I can now and build up my credit so that maybe I can either refinance or take out a short term loan to make up the payments I missed. Now XXXX car sales say that the offer was proposed so long again that the process would have to be restarted and the amount lower thanks to their ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) vicious tactic!

Complaint narrative:
Despite emailing, calling & sending messages via the Mohela website I have not heard anything regarding the submission of my latest PSLF form for Employment Verification back on XX/XX/2022. I have waited for an extended amount of time on hold on several occasions, and have yet to be able to speak to a representative. My submitted employment verification should bring my qualifying payments to over XXXX payments. But I have been stuck in limbo with no insight as to when my PSLF form will complete processing and subsequently, my loans forgiven. This debt looming has taken a major physical toll and mental toll on my health. I am riddled with XXXX I am unable to even get a call back a reply is that so much to ask?
