Dozens of customers are alleging fraud against Race Auto Group in Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia. The number of RCMP complaints has more than doubled, with 49 reports now under investigation.
Lisa Marr, one of the affected customers, states she is liable for $60,000. This includes loans on two cars she traded in and a vehicle she cannot register. Marr alleges Race Auto Group failed to release paperwork for her purchased vehicle and that a bounced cheque was sent to her lender for the trade-in vehicles.
RCMP are reviewing all reported circumstances. The Better Business Bureau has suspended Race Auto Group's accreditation due to a failure to address marketplace disputes. The BBB noted a pattern of complaints regarding unpaid trade-in liens.
