In an assurance of discontinuance that was filed in Suffolk Superior Court, United Auto Credit Corporation (UACC) has agreed to provide relief to consumers who purchased vehicles at F&R Auto in Westport and City Line Auto Sales, Inc. in Fall River and financed loans through UACC. “For many consumers, buying a car is the largest purchase of a lifetime, and when it’s defective or inoperable, it can have catastrophic ripple effects on daily life and well-being, including employment, housing, and even health,” said Healey. “This settlement furthers our office’s mission to protect consumers from predatory and unfair practices and secures hundreds of thousands of dollars in relief for those victimized by this company.” UACC is a subprime automobile finance company that contracts with a network of automobile dealerships nationwide, including dealerships located in Massachusetts. UACC provides high-cost auto loans to consumers with poor credit histories through dealer-arranged agreements, and it finances these loans at the statutory maximum 21 percent interest rate.
