On January 4, 2023, New York Attorney General Letitia James and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) issued a press release announcing that they had sued CAC “for deceiving thousands of low-income New Yorkers into high-interest car loans.” The press release specified that “[t]he lawsuit alleges that CAC pushed unaffordable loans onto tens of thousands of low-income consumers throughout the state without considering their ability to repay their loans in full. CAC misstated key terms on loan agreements, including the principal and interest amounts, and did not disclose thousands of dollars in credit charges. In addition, CAC packaged these illegal loans into securities that it sold to investors. These deceptive lending practices lowered consumers’ credit scores and cost New Yorkers millions of dollars. The lawsuit seeks to end CAC’s abusive and deceptive practices, reform or eliminate existing CAC loan agreements, and collect restitution for impacted consumers.”
On this news, CAC’s stock price fell $52.99 per share, or 11.61%, to close at $403.49 per share on January 4, 2023.
