Summary:
Brad Hurd purchased a 2018 Honda Accord from Priority Automotive Huntersville for $26,400. Unbeknownst to him, the vehicle had been in an accident in 2017, while still a dealership demonstrator, with repairs exceeding $10,000 (more than 25% of the car’s value). North Carolina law, N.C. Gen. Stat. § 20-71.4, required disclosure of such damage. Instead, Priority affirmatively answered “NO” on the damage disclosure statement and gave Hurd a purchase agreement with the wrong VIN.
