Re: Acknowledgement of Disclosure by dealer of hail damage
The dealer's failure to disclose the repaired damage is a violation of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices/Consumer Protection Act ("DTPA"). Your damages are the difference in value between a new vehicle and a repaired vehicle.
You should contact an attorney that's familiar with the DTPA, and practices in the county where you bought the vehicle.
