The dealership refuses to repair the issues and the finance company refuses to help me return the vehicle for all the misrepresentation and fraud associated with it. They demand payment and threaten to repossess the vehicle creating damage to my credit profile rather than assist with woth the many issues they paid into when providing me the loan.
