I had a recent problem with my car and I left my car in pep boys. When pep boys gave me a very big bill, I decided to sell my car to somebody. So I called this auction company, and I enquired them for a quote to take my car. This guy from IAAI who spoke with me took all the info like name, where the car is and told me I should hand over the car keys and title to his driver and they will mail in the cheque after 10 days. Not liking this plan I said,I want to get paid right when somebody comes to pick it up and I’m comfortable with getting paid 10 days after.So he said somebody from Fremont office will call me and I can talk about it to them. Nobody called me and without my knowledge and my authorization they towed my car to their office. Then Pep Boys called, they say that my car was towed, but they don’t know who did it or where they have taken my car. Finally I had to file a police compliant to locate the car, after which I asked the IAAI representative, tow back the car to my home, since I was not even aware of it and I din’t even authorize them to tow my car. The Manager there, spoke very rude and she said that if I want it, I have to tow at my expense and they are not going to do that for me. I had to tow the car back at my expense. And car when they took was in running condition, but currently wouldn’t start also.So I would like to know, if there is any way I can sue those people for the damages they caused me?. I only expect them to pay the towing expense and repair expense for making it back to running condition.
Any help would greatly appreciated.
Can a car be repossessed if they payment is not due?
12th August 2010
Strange question I know. So my mom is going through Credit Acceptance Center (shivvers) for a car. Back in March she got sick and missed some work, she was also trying to save up to move to a cheaper area in June. To help out I called Credit Acceptance Center on March 19th and told them I would like to pay 70.11 (3.37 x 3) to cover March, April and May’s payments. The rep said sure thing and took my money. April comes around and they try to pull 3.37 out of my mom’s bank account for April’s payment. That caused the bank to charge 2 NSF fees. I call Credit Acceptance, explain the situation and have them call the bank and ask if they will reverse the fees due to Credit Acceptance Centers mistake. They did. So, my mom works as a cook on a tug boat. She asked me to watch her car and her dog this month while she is on the boat. Both are in my yard. I go to feed the dog and hear her barking, they are towing the car.
I call customer service and verify the payments all processed. They are now saying they don’t do advance payments, despite the first rep I spoke to in March saying "Sure thing" and the second apologizing to the bank for their mistake and assuring me that they next payment would be due June 14th.
So is this legal for them to repossess the car? If not then can I call the police to report the car stolen and actually get Credit Acceptance Center into hot water?
Yes they deducted it all on March 19th. All ,270.11.
Oh I also paid her insurance up for 6 months to make sure that was good.
I called their customer service again tonight and they are saying the payment was due on May 13th. But they also see where I paid the ,270.11 in march and that the customer service rep at that time set the next auto pay for June 14th (the next payment date)
So I can’t talk to the repo department until tomorrow. In the mean time am I go for calling the cops?
Emergency Road Services: All You Need To Know
17th April 2010
Have you ever wondered what you would do if you were caught in some technical bind while driving your car? Before you step out of the house, keep the contact of a reliable emergency road services provider who can rush help to your side if and when needed.
There have been times when we have had to pull over due to some car trouble or failure. Some of the problems include smoke coming out of the hood or shortage of gas or even light problems. Why, some of us have also been victims of minor accidents. When in such situations, you should be aware of what the need is so that when you call in for help, you can give precise instructions to the service provider. This will empower them to dispatch the required assistance to you without wasting time.
When you have a burst tire, failed engine, dead battery, in such situations one should call for towing truck. They make it a point to instantly come to the spot so that your car can be pulled out of the way of continuing traffic. Depending on the nature of repairs, they will leave if the vehicle is fixed there itself or will take the car (and you) to the nearest service garage. Such a service is called vehicle recovery.
If your vehicle is stuck middle of the road due to tire burst, engine failure, battery exhaustion or any other reason, one should call the towing services. Towing services immediately respond and solve traffic snarls by initially pulling your car to the side of the road. If the car can be repaired right there on the spot, they will move out. However, if the car requires to be hauled to the garage, they can transport the vehicle there with ease. This is known as vehicle recovery.
When there is failure in the mechanism of the car, ensure that they send over a certified car mechanic to the scene so that the problem can be solved effectively. Most of the technicians are trained in emergency road services have general spare parts with them once they know what the problem is and what is required to fix it. For example, if your battery has died, they will have the wires and mechanisms to revive it temporarily.
If you are making a long trip, it is inevitable that you will run out of gas. When such things happen, more often than not, it is tough to locate a gas station with ease. You would also not want to abandon your car in the middle of the road. Let the service know what you need, try to give as precise location directions as possible. This will help them to get to you fast. They would also be able to know if there is any station around and if not they could bring the fuel themselves to solve the situation. You too could suggest this to them.
Long journeys often render a driver out of fuel and sometimes with no gas station in sight for miles. When one reports this to the car emergency service, they will calculate the distance of your location to the nearest station. If it is possible to tow the car in, they will send a tow vehicle but if it is too out of the way, they have the means to send in mobile refueling services. Other minor car emergency services include water delivery. Water for burnt out carburetors as well as for your drinking purposes can be availed of. Another service that most emergency service providers give has nothing to do with the failure of the car. They also provide relief for mistaken lockouts and alternative modes of transport if the car cannot be opened through duplicate keys.
Medical aid, on the spot injury and ambulance facilities can also be availed of if required. Most emergency road services offer credit facility and accept credit card payments. It is very important to opt for good road emergency services that offer quality and human care.
