Mitsubishi Motors Credit Of America Heritage Mitsubishi ripoff dishonest fraudulent billing, liars about being a loan and no balloon payments Longview Texas

I am so mad My husband and I both bought a vehicle from Heritage Mitsubishi and were financed through Mitsubishi Motors Credit of America, Inc. I bought a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant, fully loaded and my husband bought a 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse.

We decided to go w/ the Diamond Advantage Plan (Diamond Rip off Plan). The salesman explained it to us and I remember specifically asking is this a lease and are there any balloon payments, the salesman said NO this is not a lease or any balloon payments at the end. He told us that w/ in 4 - 5 years we would come back in and be able to trade the car in just as we normally do other cars. He said this program just allows you to make lower payments because you are using our new Diamond Plan and it is through our credit company.

So, that day we both drove off in two new cars. I had gone w/ the company because I had dealt w/ this salesman earlier buying a Mitsubishi Montero Sport and I had wrecked it and needed a new one so he said w/ this car I was now buying I would not have to add any rollover to my new car.

In 2003 I had another child and the car was cramped and in 2005 I had another child, totalling 4 kids, me and my husband. I decided to go to Mitsubishi and trade my car in. I went to mitsubishi in Mesquite, Texas. I was told that this was a loan and we were upside down in the car loan by at least 6-8 thousand dollars. The salesman at Mesquite told me that I could maybe get a better deal on a Mitsubishi Montero that cost at least 30,000 plus got really bad gas mileage.

If we did that he would be able to give us more incentives and knock some of the upside down loan "off". Of course, the car was not what we wanted and was not big enough. He told us there was nothing he could do and that he had seen many many people come through there from other Mitsubishi dealerships, especially smaller Mitsubishi dealerships, that got into this and they lied to them to.

He said they were lying and not explaining the whole details out because they were getting cars sold and the credit company was making money off the upside down loans.

Since then, we called the Heritage Mitsubishi and the salesman that sold us the car no longer works there and the Mesquite salesman quit a few months after we went there and he called us from another dealership and told us he could probably do more w/ this company.

So, Thank God for Saturn of Mesquite. They are an awesome car dealership and they got us into a really good car and though we had to pay on the upside down loan and it was at least $4000.00 but they did get us out of the other amount owed by giving incentives.

Now, we have a 2002 Eclipse w/ over 100,000 miles on it, transmission went bad, it is a piece of junk and in 2007 we still owe exactly: $8,408.77 and it must be received by 3/27/07 to pay in full. No one is going to give us half of this for this car and we are going to wind up paying that and trading it or paying this huge 6000.00 (not exact amount) balloon payment in October 2007.

This Company is a rip off. Be ware of the Diamond Advantage plan and beware of the people at Heritage Mitsubishi in Longview, Texas or any other Mitsubishi company.

I want Mitsubishi Credit of America to pay us for their fraudulent activity. I want the money we lost from the 1st car on the upside down loan and extra we paid and for when we have to sell this Eclipse and pay on its upside down loan. We should not have been misled and lied to! They did us wrong and many other people!

I want them to pay for all of this damage they have done to so many peoples lives. They deserve a huge consequence and they deserve not to be able to sell cars to the public because of this fraudulency.
