RIPLEY – A Jackson County man alleges a truck he bought has defective conditions that have not been repaired.

Joseph Gooch filed a complaint on July 14 in the Jackson Circuit Court against General Motors LLC, I-77 Auto Group Inc. and Ally Bank alleging violation of the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act and other counts.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on Aug. 3, 2015, he purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado for personal use. After the purchase, he alleges he experienced nonconformities on the vehicle that substantially impaired its use, value and safety, which caused him to suffer monetary damages, loss of use, emotional and mental distress, aggravation, anxiety, annoyance and inconvenience.

The plaintiff holds General Motors LLC, I-77 Auto Group Inc. and Ally Bank responsible because the defendants allegedly sold the motor vehicle that did not conform to its express warranties, failed to make necessary repairs and refused to replace the vehicle.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks revocation of acceptance, award for all damages, costs, attorney fees, pre- and post-judgment interest and such other relief as the court may deem appropriate. He is represented by David L. Grubb and Kristina Thomas Whiteaker of The Grubb Law Group in Charleston.
