GALESBURG, Mich. (WOOD) — One week after a Target 8 investigation involving a Galesburg used car lot, the state has suspended the dealer’s license to sell vehicles.
On Thursday, Michigan’s Secretary of State shut down Speedy’s Auto Sales, a tiny car lot off I-94 that allegedly posed as a private seller online.
However, that isn’t why Speedy’s license was summarily suspended. Instead the state acted because it attempted to inspect the lot two times and discovered the dealer was not open.
A Secretary of State spokesperson said the point of laws requiring open hours and maintaining an open place of business is to allow buyers to address a problem or to allow regulatory staff to review documents and ensure cars are being sold legally.
