I I am filing fraud charges on a dealer who lied in his ad and I have documented proof from Maryland inspection station. Unfortunately I have already bought the car.

" CarGurus takes its responsibility to consumers and dealers equally seriously. We understand that we have to deliver value to both constituencies. So how do we help dealers? The answer is simple: CarGurus helps dealers sell cars. Because of the unique way that CarGurus ordinates its search results, 95% of the leads sent from CarGurus to dealers each month are for inventory that has been validated by CarGurus as a Great, Good or Fair deal. As a result, these leads convert to sold vehicles at rates far above the industry average. Consumers going to dealers from CarGurus do so with 3rd-party validation that the car in question is a Fair to Great deal. No other listings site on the web generates lead inquiries with this built-in pricing validation."
When you documented fraud what steps do you take to remove dealers that use fraudulent info in their ads?
Fraud is something that normally is decided in court, so right now it is your word against theirs (not taking sides here). Perhaps you will get it worked out, perhaps not. Lesson to be learned....anytime you buy a used vehicle, get it checked out by an independent party before the purchase.
