Vehicle lease issues- Florida
landlord tenant attorney Florida Jul 24, 2026
Location: Florida and Georgia Leased in Florida, registered in Georgia My wife decided to lease a car and we have had several issues with the transaction. 1. Dealer had her sign the paperwork four times. Never disclosed the changes to her. Just a text saying please sign. 2. Dealer added in a warranty package and a key package that were never disclosed. We received the paperwork and her signature was forged. 3. Date of the lease is a day earlier than the actual lease. A sheet for Georgia was signed in this date and notarized even though she never showed her ID or signed in front on a notary. 4. The dealer took too much for taxes and then didn’t send enough to Georgia and we had to pay out of pocket $600+ to register. There was a charge for a third part tax company yet we had to provide the address to them of where to send it (and they sent the wrong amount). There are a couple of other paperwork issues that I discovered. We reached out to the dealer and they acknowledged the receipt but have since cut off all communications. Honda corporate has said there is nothing they can do. What are the best options? We are considering a lawyer but probably not a big enough issue for them to consider. Thanks.
