What is the name of your state?Cincinnati, OH
My car was repossessed by my finance company, rightfully so. During the repossession it was towed improperly. It's a 4x4 and since the repo guy didn't have keys he should have towed it on a flat bed. Instead, he just lifted the front 2 tires and towed it, which resulted in a broken drive shaft among other things ($1500.00 to repair). I have a statement from my mechanic that clearly indicates that this is a direct result of the truck being towed improperly. Contacted the finance co. and they say they are not responsible even though the tow guy works for them. They say I have to take it up with him, all they gave me was a cell phone # and a first name for the tow guy. He refuses to give me an address so I can sue him in small claims. The finance co refuses to provide additional details about him. Should I just sue the fianance co in small claims, or hire a lawyer to hunt the tow guy down and sue him in Municipal Court?????
