Re: breach of contract
Not having seen the contract, I can't comment on the interest rate or related issues. Usually, if the seller places insurance, it's only to protect the property (i.e. the car), and not the person. Because you were hurt, your medical bills are your own responsibility or that of the other at-fault driver, if any. Many lawyers will give you a reasonably-priced initial consultation to see if you might have a case against the finance company on the interest and late fee issues. Good luck to you.
