Auto Fraud Part III

Let's take auto Fraud a little bit further and let's look at the intent involved.
I am NOT a lawyer nor a Legal assistant or court clerk or in anyway affiliated with the legal practice. Not at all!
Instead I am a retired Investigator, I am an educated Elder Advocate and a Senior citizen myself.

I check new laws, I check court cases, I do look at how everything has changed in the last couple of decades or so. I try to keep informed of both the good and the bad.I talk to lawyers, Judges, Legislature and other politicians on a regular basis.I do talk to law enforcement as well.

Lawsuits have not done very much to change how auto dealers do business. The insurance pay off, the salesmen up their game a little and insurance premiums go up a little. it all averages out and it is fraud as usual.

except now they have a new game rule. Now they have a clause in every contract to purchase or lease that states you will agree to arbitration. To be more specific, you agree not to sue them when you discover they defrauded you and instead agree to arbitration which you will most likely pay for and it will be their arbitrator.
I have this to say. When you come across this paragraph a red flag should go up and run like hell! Because it is saying .." when you find out we screwed over you, and we will. You cannot do anything about it except the feeble effort of arbitration which will cost you even more money. Wow! That is having the box of salt ready to pour in the wounds ahead of time.What do you do?
You have a couple of choices..... You can simply put a big X across that paragraph and write in the margin "declined by and your initials"

The second option is this: If you signed you cannot sue the business. But... you can sue individuals.... The salesman... the finance scammer...the owner, the manager and the list goes on and on... There are three sleazy lawyers for every good one willing to take these suits on contingency. Why ? because the arbitration does not apply in cases of fraud! Yes you can beat these con artists and their lying cohorts and there is no threat they can make to stop you.
Don't let these deviant criminals make you a victim.
