I am now receiving a phone call stating that they are the person who bought the business and wants us the buy back the car for $300 or sell it to him for $150. I am just wondering if anyone else is getting these calls?

I call transmission rebuild This week, located at 1805 s. great southwestern st in Grand Prairie , texas. I spoke with Larry Duncan on fri morning, made arrangements to have my vehicle towed in to his shop. He would pick it up from my mechanic. I was trying to save a few bucks, my mechanic said he could put a rebuilt tranny in for just north of 2 grand, or I could get a new tranny for just over 25 hundred. I came across this place while looking for new and rebuild transmissions.
rebuilds starting at $995 Lifetimwarranty included, free tow & return. He picked up my vehicle on fri. And I had to call him, on Monday afternoon and he said I needed to sign my work order... He emailed it , it was dated for fri, hum.... I signed it and returned it and, needed financing so I had to gt the finance co. Info from him because his " computers were down" . I contacted the finance co. And was approved for 3grand, imagine that the almost exact amount that the rebuild would cost w/ the lifetime warranty.
went through the hoops for the finance co. And payments were going to be $230 bi-wkly... Did some number crunching and with the rebuild option I choose finance charges alone were going to exceed 2,500, my tranny would end up costing me over5,000!!! Went to our banker and got 2100 cash and he said work wouldn't start until I paid" in cash" my parts deposit of 400 some odd dollars and would still have to pay the 2100... This dude is a joke, do not would no recommend this business!!

My boyfriend and I went to our local police station and spoke with an officer and showed him all the evidence I gathered. I think he felt for us both but continued to tell me this was a civil matter even though there's obvious fraud involved. The investigators did make copies of everything I had and said they would "look into it". I'm not dumb I realize I'm never going to hear back from them. When I returned home I called back Grand Prairie Police Department. Detective Clark wasn't working today so I spoke with an officer. I told him the same things I've told you, and Detective Clark and he said if I did believe there was actually a case being built by the DA maybe I should contact them. He said I should ask if there's in files open on Larry Duncan and if so, could I speak with the District Attorney handling the case. So I will be doing so tomorrow morning. I'm not giving up. I realize there's a chance this may never be resolved and it may drag on for months. It might even be more effort than it's worth. However, I'm not a quitter and I believe in protecting my family. And in my eyes, he's harmed it. So I'm going to continue on with this until I have absolutely no choice but to stop. Which to me, is going to take fire bolts coming down from the sky to stop me once I set my sight on something.
I'll update soon.
