Man Sues Dealership After Loaner Car Gets Reported as Stolen

Jamie Rodgers says he was terrified when cops pulled him over. The armed cops believed Rodgers stole the Kia SUV. The car he was driving was reported stolen by a California Kia dealership. However, the car was not stolen. It was a loaner vehicle that Rodgers and his wife say the dealer gave them to use while their car was having extensive repairs. Now, the couple is suing the dealership, which denies their allegations. Inside Edition’s Jim Moret has more.

Hell, they apparently couldn't even ask their own employee's if they knew where the car went. Imagine living a life where every time you misplaced something and instead of looking for it you called the cops because someone must have stolen it.

    The dealership lost the loaner agreement within minutes of it being filled out? The employee couldn't say, "oh yeah, that car was loaned out, but I've misplaced the contract." Then called the police as if you never loaned the car out. Called the wife, not the husband who was in said car to admit the mistake. Not only sue, but someone needs to lose their job for causing all of that chaos.

While looking we saw that the keys were already in the ignition and my brother tried opening the car door and it was unlocked. The guy took about 40 minutes to come back to his surprised he found us inside the car waiting for him. He was so confused and concerned on how we got in the car since he couldn't find the keys until we told him.

    I think the dealer wanted the car, couldn't find it on the lot so they checked to see if it were loaned out and when then couldn't find the papers they assumed it was stolen. But come on this was in 2021, do you mean to tell me there is no computer record of the car being loaned out? No...everything is on the computer these days, the "paper" is just a print out to be filed away or given to the customer. That begs the question, did the customer actually have the loaner agreement in the car?

    What likely happened: 1. The couple placed their car in a mechanic's care, as it's said that they were getting repairs on it. 2. The couple licensed the dealership's car as a loaner while it was being repaired. 3. Through negligence of the employees, the loan agreement was lost behind a filing cabinet. 4. The Kia dealership, noticing a car missing and not having an agreement, assumed the car had been stolen and reported it as such to the police. 5. The loan agreement was found in AFTER the report, and the dealership called the wife through that information. Step #4, of course, is the source of the lawsuit: Surely someone at the dealership would remember a car being stolen, attempt to locate the original papers, or look through security footage to see if the car had been taken legally or not. I can't say why the dealership assumed the suspect was armed and dangerous other than the general assumption of "You don't commit grand theft auto without a gun", and of course, that assumption is a key point in the lawsuit. This is all just MY conjecture, of course.
