Client financed a Toyota through Toyota Financial and had 14K remaining. The Toyota vehicle was traded in for a Lexus (Toyota is the parent company of Lexus). Client disclosed the monthly payments to the Lexus dealership but did not disclose the full amount remaining (nor did Lexus inquire). Lexus did not payoff the Toyota (even though the Toyota was financed through the same company the Lexus is being financed through, Toyota Financial). Now the Lexus dealership is saying client owes them the 14k since they did not disclose the lien. Client, in the litany of documents signed, of course signed documents stating no lien. Any thoughts here or an attorney the client can speak with? Jay A. Wechsler, Esq.
