What we can do for you with a car finance claim
We help individuals challenge unfair or mis-sold vehicle finance agreements, providing clear advice on hidden commissions, affordability concerns, and lender conduct.
- Reviewing PCP, HP, and other finance agreements
- Identifying hidden commissions and unfair lending practices
- Assessing affordability and sales process failures
- Taking steps to recover compensation and challenge lenders
Car finance claims are about whether the agreement was fair, transparent, and properly explained. Many agreements involved hidden commissions, poor affordability checks, or sales practices that prioritised lender profit over the customer’s interests.
We focus on identifying where the process failed, assessing the strength of the claim, and taking practical steps to recover compensation and hold lenders accountable.
How we approach car finance claims
Car finance claims turn on whether the agreement was fair, transparent, and properly explained. The priority is to identify what went wrong, assess the strength of the claim, and take action to recover compensation where mis-selling has occurred.
Understanding your position
We review your finance agreement, the way the deal was arranged, and whether key information or commissions were properly disclosed.
Assessing the claim
We assess whether the finance was potentially mis-sold, whether unfair commission arrangements were involved, and what compensation may be recoverable.
Taking the right next step
We pursue the lender or broker directly, challenge unfair conduct, and take steps to recover compensation while keeping the process controlled and straightforward.
Key issues in car finance claims
Car finance claims are driven by fairness, disclosure, and lender conduct. The issue is whether the agreement was arranged properly and whether hidden commission or unfair terms affected the deal.
Hidden commission arrangements
Many agreements involved brokers or dealerships receiving commission without properly informing the customer. This can affect whether the finance arrangement was fair.
Unfair interest or charges
Customers were sometimes placed into agreements with inflated interest rates or unnecessary costs that increased the overall amount repayable.
Suitability of the finance agreement
The type of agreement offered may not have been appropriate for the customer’s circumstances, needs, or understanding at the time.
Lender and broker responsibility
Liability may extend beyond the dealership itself. Lenders can also face responsibility for the way the finance agreement was arranged and sold.
Whatever your situation, our solicitors can provide clear, confidential guidance tailored to you.

Car Finance Claims FAQs
Common questions from individuals dealing with potentially unfair or mis-sold car finance agreements.
What is a car finance claim?
A car finance claim usually involves allegations that a finance agreement was unfair, mis-sold, or included undisclosed commission arrangements that affected the cost of the agreement.
Can I claim if I did not know commission was being paid?
Possibly. Many claims focus on whether commission arrangements were properly disclosed and whether they created unfairness in the agreement.
What types of finance agreements can be affected?
Claims can involve PCP, HP, and other vehicle finance agreements, depending on how the finance was arranged and the terms involved.
Can I still claim if the agreement has ended?
In some cases yes. Even if the agreement has finished or the vehicle has been returned, you may still be able to challenge how the finance was arranged.
What happens if I ignore potential issues with my finance agreement?
Delay can make it harder to recover documents, assess the agreement properly, and protect your position. Taking advice early helps establish whether you may have a valid claim.
