Behind the Investigation with Better Call Harry: Atlanta resident buys one new car, ends up with three car payments

Behind the Investigation with Atlanta News First

Last October, Dr. Lynne Damali, a Forest Park, Georgia, chiropractor, traded in two cars for a new Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

The Wagoneer gave her family everything the other cars didn’t: space, luxury, and power, but Damali didn’t anticipate what happened over the next two months.

Damali made the deal at a Union City Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM; the dealership’s new general manager confirmed the checks bounced because of a corporate processing error.
