Business ProfileforMr. V & Sons Pre-Owned Auto Sales Inc

The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government's allegations, which have not yet been proven. 


On September 2, 2021, West Virginia Attorney General, Patrick Morrisey, filed  a lawsuit with the Circuit Court of Kanawha County against Mr. V & Sons Pre-Owned Auto Sales, Inc and Sorhrab Vagheei and Camron Vagheei for violating the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act and other applicable consumer laws and regulations. The lawsuit targets Mr. V & Sons Pre-Owned Auto Sales, Inc. and its owners, founder Sohrab Vagheei and his son, Camron Vagheei. The Attorney General seeks civil penalties, restitution and a court order to permanently block the defendants from any similar violation of the state’s Consumer Credit and Protection Act. The lawsuit, links the Kanawha County dealership to complaints from 11 consumers, who reside in the areas of Boone, Fayette and Kanawha counties.
 
Their complaints include allegations that Mr. V & Sons sold vehicles with numerous mechanical problems and refused to take responsibility for repairs. Examples include a failed transmission within 24 hours of purchase, faulty brakes, a broken rear spring and rusted frames, as well as other issues that rendered the vehicles unable to pass a state safety inspection.
 
The lawsuit further alleges that Mr. V & Sons misled consumers and failed to honor its warranty obligations, disclose the terms and conditions of financing, and failed to give customers a notice of their right to take care of default payments.
 
Mr. V & Sons also stands accused of having failed to transfer and deliver car titles within 60 days from the date of sale and having sold vehicles “As Is” without providing the required disclaimer, according to the civil complaint.

The complaint seeks civil penalties against the Defendants, jointly and severally, of up to $5,000.00 for each violation of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act, and seeks restitution to all consumers who have been aggrieved by the practices of Mr. V and awarding the State a judgment in an amount representing all of its costs, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred in the investigation and prosecution of this matter, and granting the State such other and further equitable relief as may be necessary to secure complete justice in this matter. For more info go to https://ago.wv.gov/Documents/2021.09%20Mr.%20V%20Complaint.PDF
