Haley said the Department of Law began investigating the dealership at the end of 2018, and filed a lawsuit in September 2020.
Anchorage Auto Mart was also accused of misrepresenting the accident history of vehicles and for false advertising. Owners of the dealership denied the accusations, but agreed to a legal settlement, paying $35,000 in penalties and another $60,000 toward a restitution fund for potential victims.
