I paid for a 2005 Sebring Convertible and gave them 3 post dated checks with the same date for each month. I explained to them that it had to coinside witht my last paydate each month and I would let them know when I might need them to just wait a few days to cash it which they said was fine. The 2nd to last check needed to wait a few days but they cashed it anyway and it didn't clear. They called me and I told them I had talked to someone about the check needing to wait a couple days...and that person knew nothing about it. I went right to the bank and gave them cash.
I have had several things go wrong on the car in the 3 months I've had it. All 4 tires had to be replaced the 2nd month I had it as they were completely ROTTEN. The front bumper came off the car the first week I had it..they claimed they had it fixed when I left it with them but they LIED...it was never fixed and I had to have it fixed myself. The engine started making a funny noise...and still does.
It was the same for this months LAST payment..I needed to wait until yesterday for the money to be in my account. They agreed to wait till yesterday if I brought them cash. I told them that they still had my check I would need back my check if I did that and ALSO if I could not make it by the time they closed because of my work schedule I would be in on Sunday (they are not open Saturdays) with the cash for them. I told them if I didn't make it to just cash the check and they said they just wanted the cash.
I could not make it there by the time they closed yesterday because of a worked related sales call I could not disrupt. I woke today to find my car MISSING...they decided to REPO IT... EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE LAST CHECK PAYMENT!!!
Now I have to wait until they open tomorrow to deal with them.
