Worst customer service I’ve ever dealt with. Have had my car in shop at least four times now (one time for 10+ days), and have yet to fix the problem. More

I have sent you a couple of emails. I paid off KMFUSA on 3.25.22 and still don’t have the title. I am going to closing now on my home and this is holding up my Move. I can’t believe how much this is messing up my life and costing me $$. All because y’all lost or didn’t have the title in the first place. I asked you over a month ago to fix this.
