Public Auto Sales Reviews
Review in Dealers category from Dallas, Texas
Dear Public Auto Sales/MCA Financial customers, If you are able hire a good attorney, document everything, ask to speak with someone above the office manager Karina Ortega, ask for a Karilyn Thomas (managing director for MCA Financial), call David Sharp 214.507.1447 shown as the receiver, have your attorney ask why payments are held tail after the due date in order to evoke defaults, call 602.710.2500/602.710.2520/214.452.8200 until you reach someone or receive a call back. Allow your attorney or representative to be your voice and keep your cool.

Public Auto Sales is NOT a "Scam"
I understand that some of the Public Auto Sales' customers are angry and frustrated. Oddly enough, it is only the customers which have been repossessed that are angry, frustrated, confused and want to give these bad reviews. Public Auto Sales is not in the business of ripping people off, nor are they in the business of giving free vehicles. All these customers that have been repossessed, were repossessed for not making their payments. Public Auto Sales has been more lenient than most Buy Here Pay Here dealers and have given the customers plenty of opportunity to catch up on their past due payments. And I am still sooooo confused on how Public Auto Sales is a scam. Public Auto Sales wasn't a scam to you when no one else would sell you a car because of your bad credit history and Public Auto Sales was willing to give you a chance to build up your credit. Maybe instead of wasting time writing bad reviews, people can invest time in reading a dictionary to gain a more intelligent vocabulary. Is SCAM the only word that you people know. There is no SCAM. Its pretty simple....Pay Your Car Note = Keep Your Car.. There is no such thing as a FREE ride.

Public Auto Sales Scam
We have gotten reports from several consumers who bought cars with this dealership. The dealership is no longer at either of it's location, when you try to pay your car note with a pay near me card that was issued by the dealership, it's invalid. We have pictures of the empty car lots at all locations with no posting to notify customers. We have now been notified that a person by the name of Eddie is calling customers who loans were not bought by United Acceptance asking them to come to Boulevard Motors saying that's the new Public Auto asking them to pay their payments. BEWARE this is a SCAM!! We are contacting the news to see if we can get them to run a story for all consumers who have been hurt by this company. Please email me if you want help with this situation at publicautoscam@***.com!! We are going to get to the bottom of this!

Money making scams Public Auto Sales
Stay away from this company, they make you pay for insurance that is not actually state approved coverage. They tell you it is insurance when actually it is to cover their interest only. The interesting thing was that I had full coverage for a year and nothing was said. Then they start tell me I sign some paperwork agreeing to pay for their insurance. I noticed the majority of their customers are black and Hispanic " isn't that strange" maybe if their were more white customers they wouldn't be scamming people. Watch your accounts make sure to get receipts.

Public Auto Sales
I bought a vehicle from public auto and I put down a large down payment made my car payments on time also. I was put in one vehicle that had a issue with engine light and I was put into another vehicle which was when all my problems started...They kept trying to take the car from me because it actually was a lien on it and I liked the car so much I didn't want to give it back public auto gave me so many problems over that and when I didn't give in and give up the vehicle I guess they took care of the lien, it wasn't my problem to begin with, and the car was over priced.
Public auto priced the car at $20,000 but the kbb of the vehicle was $8000 total and I learned this 4 months before actually paying the vehicle off. Public auto would call send out notices way before my payments were due.
I got so tired of it, so I started to double up on my car payments and give them $500 every two weeks to hurry and get the car paid off. And when I paid the car off public auto had the nerve to ask me to purchase another vehicle from them....
AMEN to that. I have nothing bad to say about public auto sales.
I paid on time and as a matter of fact they were more than willing to repair my vehicle for free because there was an underlying issue before I purchased it. Would do business again with Public Auto Sales in a heartbeat!!1
