FTC sends checks to people who bought cars from Rhinelander Auto dealerships
What the FTC says about this program
The FTC is sending 7,531 checks totaling more than $1 million to people who were harmed by Rhinelander Auto’s junk fees and discriminatory practices.
The FTC and the State of Wisconsin sued Rhinelander Auto, and the company paid money to settle. According to the lawsuit, Rhinelander added hidden fees to their car prices for products that customers didn’t want, like gap insurance and service plans. The dealerships often hid these junk fees in the paperwork or told car buyers that they were required, even though that wasn’t true. The lawsuit also alleged that these dealerships discriminated against American Indian customers by charging them more for financing.
The dealerships covered by the settlement include Rhinelander GM Auto Center, Rhinelander Cadillac, Rhinelander Toyota, and OK Used Cars of Rhinelander.
If you get a check, please cash it within 90 days.
