Dothan motor company DMC Dont buy from Dothan motor company they will scam you Dothan, Alabama
I bought a car at Dothan motor company after putting 2K down. I had the car for a few months and payed on time. I got layed off from my job and missed 1 payment. I got a new job and the day I got paid I went to leave work and go pay my late payment, which was not even 30 days late, and the current months payment, which I was making early. I got to the parking lot and my car was gone.
After contacting the police because I thought it had been stolen I found out DMC had repoed it. When I got to DMC they said it was repossessed because I had a late payment. I was furious and they refused to take my payments and told me my account had been closed. But offered to let me reapply to get the car back.
I reapplied and they turned me down because I had a new job. Even though the job payed me more than my old one they made up some lie about my income to dept ratio. They scammed me took over 3K of my money and ruined my credit and still made more of a profit by reselling the car. What ever you do do not buy from DMC Dothan Motor Company because they will scam, lie, and rip you off with no remorse.

YOU freely admit YOU were late with a payment. Did you contact them and tell them what was going on? Did you actually talk to them when they started the collection process which, by the way, you started because you were late?
It probably won't matter to you but for the benefit of others...YOU signed a contract to make each and every payment on time. There are no acceptable excuses. All they want is their money, which YOU agreed to pay on time, every time. YOU failed to live up to that agreement by being late. Being one day late is still late as is anything "less than 30 days". They exercized their right under the contract to repo the car. You did not mention what contact you had with them. What should have been done is you calling them as soon as you saw you would be late and then maybe they would have worked with you...unless you have a bad track record with them previously due to late payments.
