I live in Massachusetts, which has some pretty strong consumer protection laws. In January 2001 I purchased a new car and financed through a bank that the dealership uses. I recently paid off the loan and received a copy of my canceled contract from the bank. I was shocked to learn that the borrower's signature on the contract was not mine. When I went to the dealership to find out what was going on, the business and finance manager told me that an error was made on my original contract and that one of their employees re-did the contract and signed my name! They said they've since fired this employee. I don't beieve that story for one minute. The terms, amount financed, etc. are exactly the same on both contracts, so I have no money damages. I am enraged that someone would try to pass off a forgery as my signature and I feel personally violated. I have bought three cars from this dealership since '94 and have had a few problems in the past with their management style. Although it may sound odd, I almost feel like this is my opportunity to get some kind of revenge for past conflicts. I'm at odds about how I should proceed and need some guidance.
