Summary

Millions of consumers are defrauded each year by dealers not disclosing a vehicles wreck, flood, or salvage history, true odometer reading, prior use, lemon-law buyback history, or repaired damage to brand new cars. Other frauds involve vehicle titles, zyo-yoy transactions, and sale of gray market, cloned, or stolen vehicles. This book will show you: how to obtain punitive damages, rescission, treble damages, or $10,000 statutory damages, and attorney fees; how to obtain and utilize a vehicles title history; how to inspect the vehicle; how to find hidden dealer assets, liability of wholesalers, auctions, floor planners, dealer bonds, and more. This title also includes practice tools
