So I bought my first actually new car (a Corolla) in August and kept getting harassed by some company named Athena.
The part that got me was charging almost $400 a month for a year for stuff that’s under warranty for most of that period anyhow.
- for me, this would’ve made it so I pay EIGHT HUNDRED a month on my car. Hell to the no.
- last time I checked, Toyota’s are super reliable (unlike the car I got rid of. Lol).
- Camry’s and Corolla’s are “budget” cars.
They buy the info directly from the state (dmv or equivalent). Car purchase history is apparently public information, and they buy it in bulk.
Dealership is not involved, talk to your state reps if you want to stop it. Hint: they won’t, since it doesn’t affect them personally and it’s income for their state.
