I have bad credit, but need to get a newer car. I'm not buying new, but used. I shopped around and was turned down at 2 places, but approved at a Hyundai dealer @ 21%. We found a car we like under $9,000 with $2-3,000 down.
Since I need the car & can afford the rate I agree to the terms, but when I sit down to sign the papers the finance guy tells me I have to purchase an extended warranty @ $1,600 or I won't get the 21% interest rate - instead it will be 26% - I'm told the lender is making the requirement, not the dealership.
Needless to say I leave without the car.
