I know. My Jetta was set at $12,998, but they threw in a Bogus interest rate that they never told me about. I started payments last May and still haven’t gotten it down to sticker... at $400 per month. To make matters worse, the car is only worth $7,500 in its current condition. They made me pay three times it’s worth. They are all snakes. - They said it was worth $10,000, and I believed them. Until I saw how much they were going to pack in interest... then I got curious how shady they were, and looked at Kelly Blue Book. A 2016 Jetta S 5 Speed Manual with the 1.4 EA211 TSI VVT is worth between $7,000 and $8,200. Other examples in worse condition would be around $5,000-$6,000.

No, the government is in NO WAY generally immune from lawsuits. Specific government actors are immune as long as their actions were in good faith.

+icemachine79 that's not true. If there's no requirements or available api you can't expect private companies to defy their paid assignment and contracts to do something different. These things usually happens because of lack of communication between government entities, they're responsible for telling the contractors what to do. Ideally in this case there should only be one database (because you only need one and it saves tax-money) but both two government entities wanted their own so it will be an inherent sync issue between the two.
@icemachine796 жыл бұрын
+Völundr Frey The requirements for government contract negotiations are set by politicians who are in turn lobbied by the exact same companies who compete for those contracts to make those rules as advantageous and profitable for them as possible. I would not be surprised at all if each agency is required to maintain a separate database for that very reason. This is why involving the private sector in certain realms of governance is such a terrible idea. The profit margins of the various contracting companies becomes the primary causal factor for all of the work done by the agency rather than achieving the goals that required the agency's existence in the first place.
@volundrfrey8966 жыл бұрын
+icemachine79 no every governmental body who needs a computer system should not have their own software engineering division the size of a medium size company. Talk about wasting tax-money. The issue derives from having a gigantic government each different entity of which competing for their relevance. The solution is to simplify the government by reducing the size of it. If company A makes one system, because one part of the government want to be in charge of stolen cars. And company B makes another because and other part of government want it too it's no the private companies fault the systems doesn't tessellate perfectly. It doesn't really matter whether the private companies should have suggested a joint database, the government shouldn't build two systems doing the same thing.

After a vehicle is stolen and enough time passes the insurance company pays the victim the fair value of the car. In exchange the victim signs off saying they give up rights to the stolen car and give the rights to the insurance company. So if a stolen car is ever retrieved as in this case the car goes back to the listed owner which is the insurance company.
@photios47792 жыл бұрын
As the previous reply said, the insurance company would have gotten the rights to the vehicle, but I'm pretty sure they would have quickly sold it to recoup some of the losses they incurred by having to pay the original owner its fair value when it was reported stolen. That's standard practice in the insurance industry. I would guess it got auctioned off and it's now in the garage of some new private owner.

In defense of the dealer I heard a little more about this and they completed all the repair work and installed all the parts and paid a mechanic to do all the work and the police showed up at the dealer and notified them it was reported stolen after all the work was done. The dealer then asked the police what to do about all the money that was put in it and they said it is on the customer that authorized the work to be done as being responsible so the dealer with the understanding a criminal made them work on a stolen vehicle was coming to pick it up then of course they wanted to get money for the parts/labor they provided! Nothing came out about it being an honest mistake until after the cops took him away. Just because it is a dealership does not mean they deserve to get burned. Imagine if someone brought something to you and you put money and labor in it and then found out it was stolen, you would try to get paid what you are owed also before the criminal was arrested.

I also looked at the prices on eBay, they had it for $50. A lot better but it was going to take 2 weeks to get to me. I needed my car to be fixed right away so I ended up paying the $95.

The dealer wants to get him a good deal on another car.. ahh yes.. 'Hey mr. Luhon, Sorry we blew it by taking your 5k plus in cash, but how about we give that back to you, and you can make a nice down payment towards this brand new used 2013 lexus starting at 45k? but don't worry!, we'll give you 0.9 percent financing and your payment will only be 575 a month. congratulations!

Give the 5K back? Lololol more like the dealership meant they work with him on getting him a good deal on a car by taking like $200 off the sticker price. Only a fuckin moron would think the dealership would give him that money back

It's funny...only moronic ppl who never HAVE/OWN anything let alone a business say stupid stuff like the 'dealer' should just GIVEAWAY "anything" of HIS lot.... Taking a loss...because other ppl messed up...all of a sudden, now the dealer ( who almost gave the guy 25k themselves for the 🔥🚗) is somehow obligated to be 🎅 with his family's finances.... Basically the dealer should BUY this guy a 🚗....why? Because the dealer OWNS something? Because he may be doing a little better in life...it's his duty/obligation to BUY a stranger that the dealer didn't wrong whatsoever, a car Makes ZERO sense except in the minds of the weak entitled mindset of the 'product' we're now producing as adults....it's a darn shame ppl always want to be in another man's pocket...TELLING 'him' how and what to spend HIS 💰 on It's always the 'if I HAD IT' folks...clamouring about what they 'would DO...again IF "thay" had it'... the point is you DON'T have it so it's very easy to SUGGEST how another person spends THEIR 💰 Perhaps since I don't have onw I should preach to women about giving up more 🐱 to any guy going through ruff spot cause ta know it'd be a nice gesture and it's not like women don't have 🐱 to spare....they shouldn't be greedy If the dealer should offer ANY car on HIS lot....why not demand women offer up that 🐱 in ANY way desired 😜

He now owns part of the car. Because he bought it on good terms every repair he made is his there transfering stake of the car to him. The dealership it was stolen from owes him money as we can be damn sure they got full insurance from it and now they have a fully repaired car thus 2x the starting amount
@icemachine796 жыл бұрын
+Bic Mann Yep and this Lexus dealership doesn't deserve a single dime of business from the public ever again as a result of being stone-cold jerks. They could have taken the hit and not only done the decent thing but generate some great publicity as well. Instead, I bet they've lost a whole lot more than $5000 ever since this story broke.

As civilians if we make a mistake the police and the rest of society would make us pay and ask for accountability the police are just as liable for stuff when they mess it up and should be held accountable and it's disgusting that they don't, even more disgusting that they lured this man to the dealership knew that he was going to pay this bill of over $5000 and then threatened him with arrest after he paid the Lexus dealership. Sounds like the Lexus dealership and the cops conspired to rob this man. These police officers were armed with the knowledge that the citizen did his due diligence in regards to the vehicle, and they still insisted on treating him in the way they did. Disgusting then again All cops are disgusting and that Lexus dealership not a shock I mean come on douche bags in the Lexus dealership want money.

The true criminals are the STATE POLICE. They did not go to his home or work to arrest him. They waited until he paid for repairs to a stolen vehicle then confiscate the vehicle......They should have done their job in the first place by going to him to arrest him. Not Please the dealership who told them about the vehicle. Please, wait until we get paid for this work we did, even though we have insurance. Lets this guy feel the real burn of buying a stolen vehicle that he wouldn't have bought if the cops would have done their job correctly the first time.
