In California. I LIVE in Orange County.
My car was "accidently" reposessed by my bank (who is in Arizona). I'm already not sure how you "accidently" reposess someones car. When I got the car back all of my belongings were gone and my car doesn't work at all now. When they took the car it was working fine. The only thing I managed to get out of the car was my child's carseat. I called my bank and told them the situation and they forwarded me to the reposession company. That company would not work with me at all and is denying all liability and has now hung up on me several times trying to avoid the situation. Since then I have checked the Better Business Bureau and the reposession company is rated "F" for not responding to customer complaints. Now I am stuck with a car that does not work after the holiday's and I am not sure what to do. My car was not broken before and now it is. Soon I will be fired from my job if I do not do something about this and I do not have the money to get it fixed at this time. Should I be filing a small claims suit now? Who would I file it against? Also what type of case would this be? I would appreciate any imput!
Thank You.
- I had a late payment which I discussed with my bank and got resolved by paying two payments at the end of November. But it was taken care of with the bank. The bank actually called it a "accidental reposession" when I called and told them what happened and thats why I got the car back by the next day, except when I got it, it was not working.
