TD Auto Finance, LLC v. Ryan Berry

Filed: Feb 20, 2020
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s be honest: nobody tunes into a civil court drama expecting Casablanca. But sometimes, the universe delivers a case so gloriously, mundanely tragic that it feels like a sitcom written by the ghost of Kafka after three espresso shots and a breakup. This is not a murder. There are no secret affairs, no stolen identities, no courtroom meltdowns involving a pet iguana named Steve. No, this is something far more American: a man, a car, and a $100,000 loan that somehow turned into a $10,000 bill for losing the car. Welcome to Oklahoma, where Ryan Berry learned the hard way that you don’t just buy a Hyundai — you inherit a financial horror story disguised as a 2018 Elantra.

So who is Ryan Berry? Honestly, we don’t know much. The filing doesn’t tell us if he’s a plumber, a poet, or a professional competitive eater. All we know is that on November 30, 2017, he walked into AutoMax Hyundai in Del City, Oklahoma, and said the words that have doomed men since the invention of credit: “I’ll take it.” The “it” in question? A brand-new 2018 Hyundai Elantra with 12 miles on the odometer — a car so fresh it probably still smelled like factory plastic and false promises. The total sales price? $33,919. Ryan put down $1,000, and the rest — $28,914 — was financed through a retail installment contract. That contract was later sold (because of course it was) to TD Auto Finance, LLC, a Michigan-based lender with the soul of a spreadsheet and the warmth of an automated phone system.

Now, let’s pause for a second. The hook says “Oklahoma Man Accused of Defaulting on $100,000 Hyundai Loan.” That sounds insane. A $100,000 Elantra? Did this thing come with a solid gold engine? A built-in espresso machine? A personal butler named Reginald? Nope. That number is a red herring — a terrifying typo or misunderstanding floating around like a rumor at a high school dance. The actual loan? Closer to $29k. But here’s where things go full Saw meets The Office: Ryan missed payments. Not one. Not two. Enough to trigger a default clause, which gave TD Auto Finance the legal green light to repossess the car. And repossess they did — or, more accurately, Ryan voluntarily surrendered it, which sounds like a Zen move but was probably just him realizing he couldn’t afford gas, let alone the monthly $436.92 payment.

The car was sold — “in a commercially reasonable manner,” the filing insists, which is legalese for “we didn’t just flip it on Facebook Marketplace for $200 and a bag of Doritos.” It went for $13,600. Sounds fair? Maybe. But here’s where the math turns sinister. After the sale, TD Auto Finance tallied up what Ryan still owed: the original balance, late fees, repossession costs, storage, preparation, legal fees, and a side of emotional damage (okay, not that last one). They subtracted the sale price. Then they subtracted some refunds — like $681.58 from that optional “GAP” contract Ryan had signed, which was supposed to protect him if the car was totaled. Irony alert: it was totaled — financially — and now the refund was being used to increase his debt. The final number? $10,055.88. That’s right. Ryan Berry didn’t just lose his car. He lost his car and owes $10,000 for the privilege.

So why are we in court? Because TD Auto Finance wants that $10,055.88 — plus interest at 6.75% from the date of judgment, plus attorney’s fees (because someone has to get paid to file this paperwork), plus “all costs herein expended,” which we assume includes at least one printer cartridge and a sad desk salad. The legal claim? Breach of contract. In plain English: Ryan agreed to pay, he didn’t pay, and now the lender wants the money. It’s not complicated. It’s not mysterious. It’s the financial equivalent of returning a library book three years late and getting hit with a $200 fine.

But let’s talk about that $10,000. Is it a lot? For most people, yes. It’s two months’ rent in many parts of Oklahoma. It’s a year of groceries. It’s a down payment on a different used car. But in the context of car loans and repossession math? It’s not even the most absurd part. The absurd part is the structure of it — the way the system allows a $29k car to generate a $10k debt after it’s been sold. The absurd part is the “commercially reasonable sale” that nets half the car’s value in a year. The absurd part is the GAP insurance — sold as protection — now being used to offset the lender’s loss, not Ryan’s. The absurd part is that Ryan could’ve paid $653.92 to “renew” the contract and keep the car — but instead, he’s now on the hook for 15 times that amount.

And what does TD Auto Finance want? Money. Always money. But also, quietly, validation. They want a judgment. They want the court to say, “Yes, this math is fair. Yes, this process was reasonable. Yes, a man can owe $10,000 for a car he no longer has.” They want the stamp of legitimacy on a system that turns transportation into a debt trap.

Now, our take: we’re not rooting for either side. We’re not here to defend Ryan Berry — he signed the contract, he missed the payments, and the world doesn’t owe him a free Elantra. But we’re also not here to crown TD Auto Finance as the hero of fiscal responsibility. This isn’t justice. It’s debt alchemy — turning a defaulted loan into a golden bill. The most absurd part isn’t the money. It’s the certainty with which the lender operates — the notarized affidavits, the itemized charges, the “commercially reasonable” sale — all of it wrapped in the cold, clinical language of legality, as if this outcome was inevitable, fair, and just. But let’s be real: this is how the game is played. You sign on the dotted line, and the machine starts chewing. And when it spits you out, broke and carless, it hands you a bill for the chewing.

So what’s the lesson? Maybe it’s don’t buy a car you can’t afford. Or maybe it’s read the fine print — especially the part about what happens when you can’t pay. Or maybe it’s just this: in America, even when you give the car back, you still lose. And Ryan Berry? He’s not a cautionary tale. He’s the punchline.

FINANCE CHARGE AND PAYMENTS a. How will we figure Finance Charge. We will figure the Finance Charge on a daily basis at the Annual Percentage Rate on the unpaid part of the Amount Financed. b. How we will apply payments. We may apply each payment to the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, to the unpaid part of the Amount Financed and to other amounts you owe under this contract in any order we choose. c. How late payments or early payments change what you must pay. We based the Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price shown on page 1 of this contract, on the assumption that you will make every payment on the day it is due. Your Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price will be more if you pay late and less if you pay early. Changes may take the form of a larger or smaller final payment or, at our option, more or fewer payments of the same amount as your scheduled payment with a smaller final payment. We will send you a notice telling you about these changes before the final scheduled payment is due. d. You may prepay. You may prepay all or part of the unpaid part of the Amount Financed at any time without penalty. If you do so, you must pay the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge and all other amounts due up to the date of your payment. e. Your right to refinance a balloon payment. A balloon payment is a scheduled payment that is more than twice as large as the average of your earlier scheduled payments. If you are buying the vehicle primarily for personal, family or household use, you have the right to refinance the balloon payment when due without penalty. The terms of the refinance will be no less favorable to you than the terms of this contract. This provision does not apply if we adjusted your payment schedule to your seasonal or irregular income. 2. YOUR OTHER PROMISES TO US a. If the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. You agree to pay us all you owe under this contract even if the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. b. Using the vehicle. You agree not to remove the vehicle from the U.S. or Canada, or to sell, rent, lease, or transfer any interest in the vehicle or this contract without our written permission. You agree not to expose the vehicle to misuse, seizure, confiscation, or involuntary transfer. If we pay any repair bills, storage bills, taxes, fines, or charges on the vehicle, you agree to repay the amount when we ask for it. c. Security Interest. You give us a security interest in: • The vehicle and all parts or goods put on it; • All money or goods received (proceeds) for the vehicle; • All insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you; and • All proceeds from insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you. This includes any refunds of premiums or charges from the contracts. This secures payment of all you owe on this contract. It also secures your other agreements in this contract. You will make sure the title shows our security interest (lien) in the vehicle. You will not allow any other security interest to be placed on the title without our written permission. d. Insurance you must have on the vehicle. You agree to have physical damage insurance covering loss of or damage to the vehicle for the term of this contract. The insurance must cover our interest in the vehicle. If you do not have this insurance, we may, if we choose, buy physical damage insurance. If we decide to buy physical damage insurance, we may either: buy insurance that covers your interest and our interest in the vehicle, or buy insurance that covers only our interest. If we buy either type of insurance, we will tell you which type and the charge you must pay. The charge will be the premium for the insurance and a finance charge computed at the Annual Percentage Rate shown on page 1 of this contract. If the vehicle is lost or damaged, you agree that we may use any insurance settlement to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. e. What happens to returned insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges. If we get a refund of insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges, you agree that we may subtract the refund from what you owe. 3. IF YOU PAY LATE OR BREAK YOUR OTHER PROMISES a. You may owe late charges. You will pay a late charge on each late payment as shown on page 1 of this contract. Acceptance of a late payment does not excuse your late payment or mean that you may keep making late payments. If you pay late, we may also take the steps described below. b. You may have to pay all you owe at once. If you break your promises (default), we may demand that you pay all you owe on this contract at once. Default means: • You do not pay any payment on time; • You give false, incomplete, or misleading information on a credit application; • You start a proceeding in bankruptcy or one is started against you or your property; or • You break any agreements in this contract. The amount you will owe will be the unpaid part of the Amount Financed plus the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, any late charges, and any amounts due because you defaulted. c. You may have to pay collection costs. If we hire an attorney who is not our salaried employee to collect what you owe, you will pay the attorney's fee and court costs the law permits. The maximum attorney's fee you will pay will be 15% of the amount you owe, unless a court awards an additional amount. d. We may take the vehicle from you. If you default, we may take (repossess) the vehicle from you if we do so peacefully and if the law allows it. If your vehicle has an electronic tracking device, you agree that we may use the device to find the vehicle. If we take the vehicle, any accessories, equipment, and replacement parts will stay with the vehicle. If any personal items are in the vehicle, we may store them for you at your expense. If you do not ask for these items back, we may dispose of them as the law allows. a. How you can get the vehicle back if we take it. If we repossess the vehicle, you may pay to get it back (redeem). We will tell you how much to pay to redeem. Your right to redeem ends when we sell the vehicle. f. We will sell the vehicle if you do not get it back. If you do not redeem, we will sell the vehicle. We will send you a written notice of sale before selling the vehicle. We will apply the money from the sale, less allowed expenses, to the amount you owe. Allowed expenses are expenses we pay as a direct result of taking the vehicle, holding it, preparing it for sale, and selling it. Attorney fees and court costs, if the law permits, are also allowed expenses. If any money is left (surplus), we will pay it to you unless the law requires us to pay it to someone else. If money from the sale is not enough to pay the amount you owe, you must pay the rest to us unless the law provides otherwise. If you do not pay this amount when we ask, we may charge you interest at a rate not exceeding the highest lawful rate until you pay. g. What we may do about optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. This contract may contain charges for optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. If we demand that you pay all you owe at once or we repossess the vehicle, you agree that we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. If the vehicle is a total loss because it is confiscated, damaged, or stolen, we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe.

If you elect to purchase VSI Insurance through the Creditor, the cost of this insurance is $ N/A and is also shown in Item 4B of the Itemization of Amount Financed. The coverage is for the initial term of the contract. Any Insurer issuing VSI insurance waives its rights to subrogation against the buyer. OPTIONAL GAP CONTRACT.
