Colorado and 40 other states entered into a settlement with Credit Acceptance Corporation (CAC), one of the nation's largest subprime auto lenders, resolving allegations that CAC originated car loans it knew or should have known consumers could not afford and that it failed to reasonably prevent dealers in its network from deceptively 'packing' Vehicle Service Contract and GAP add-on products into CAC-financed purchases. The settlement provides $694 million in cash and debt relief to consumers plus an additional $15 million to the attorneys general, and imposes injunctive reforms including loan 'off ramps,' enhanced pre-purchase and pre-loan disclosures, dealer monitoring, and a seven-year price cap at 109% of retail book value. Note: this is a consumer-lending enforcement action, not a data privacy matter; the 'dark_patterns' category is the closest available fit for the deceptive add-on sales allegations.

The companies had ignored prior warning notices and stopped operating in Colorado in August 2025 after the AG obtained a preliminary injunction.
