What a dealer fraud lawyer handles
- Hidden crash, flood or fire damage.
- An odometer that was rolled back.
- A warranty promised out loud but missing from the papers.
- Add-ons and fees slipped into the contract.
The FTC Used Car Rule requires the Buyers Guide on every used car on a dealer lot and says what it must show.
New in California
Since October 1, 2026, California's CARS Act bars dealers from misrepresenting the price, financing and add-ons, per the California DMV. Optional add-ons must be named as optional, in writing, before you sign.
Who pays your dealer fraud lawyer
When a warranty is part of the claim, the federal law lets an owner who wins recover reasonable attorney fees and court costs, per the FTC. State consumer laws often add their own fee rule. More on lawyer cost.
What to gather
The ad, the Buyers Guide, the contract and the history report you were shown. Write down what the salesperson said and the date. If the car also keeps breaking, start a repair log. Keep the ad, the Buyers Guide, the contract and any texts, then call. Lies about damage, mileage or warranty often break state consumer laws. Your attorney sends a demand letter first, then files in state court if the dealer refuses. Most of these cases settle before trial. Many do, since the paperwork overlaps. A car can be a lemon and sold with a lie at the same time.Questions owners ask
