The state is suing a well-known chain of car dealerships. The Governor’s Office of Consumer Affairs says it’s filed suit against Bill Heard Enterprises and Bill Heard Chevrolet Company. The OCA says the companies sent Georgians false and deceptive advertisements. The companies allegedly lured people into dealerships by sending out a flier that looked like a recall notice by General Motors. In fact, GM had issued no such recall. The OCA says the suit comes after 15 years of failed attempts by the Office of Consumer Affairs to get Bill Heard companies to obey Georgia’s Fair Business Practices laws.
