HG Auto Sales, Shelby Street, Indianapolis - Odometer Fraud Allegations in the News

We put out an all points bulletin for information on HG Auto Sales in July. On November 5, 2015, Indianapolis television station WRTV-6 did an investigative report on HG Auto Sales reporting on allegations of HG Auto Sales selling vehicles with tampered odometers. Reportedly, a number of cars were hauled away, and as of today, only two vehicles are listed on HG Auto Sale's website.

Based on the number of vehicles that are alleged to be affected by this practice, it is reasonably foreseeable that anyone who chooses to sue HG Auto Sales may find that they don't have money to pay.  What recourse do the car buyers have? IF the dealer arranged for in assisted in obtaining the financing of your vehicle, any claims that you have against the dealer can be raised against the finance company.  This means that if you have a car that has had its odometer rolled back you may be able to claim an offset, and perhaps a refund from your lender.  In addition if the lender denies the applicability of the FTC Holder Rule you may have an additional action under the state deceptive consumer sales statute.  Please call us at 317-662-4529 if you have any questions.
