Private Party Vehicle Sale
I bought a truck from a private party with the agreement to pay 2800, 2300 down with weekly payment of 100 dollars for 5 weeks. I admit I did not sucessfully make these payments but was going to pay in full on the date of the 5th payment, until I walk outside and the vehicle was missing a couple of days before the date of the last payment. The original owner still held the title and had it towed. He gave me a 30 day period to pay, and left a letter to this effect taped on my door. He now says I owe the 500 dollars, impound fees and a fee for re-keying the door which totals around 1500 instead of 500 dollars. There was nothing stated about impound or re-keying fees in the paperwork left the night the car was towed. What am I responcible for to reclaim my vehicle before he re-sells it as he says he is going to do at the end of the week?

You are responsible for $500. he cannot charge you for the tow, impound or re-keying.
