TrueCar's Business Practices Violated Unfair Competition Law
According to the complaint, defendants failed to disclose that the company's financial statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission during the class period contained materially false and misleading statements. Specifically, the complaint alleges that TrueCar failed to disclose that its business practices violated unfair competition and deceptive trade practice laws and that the company violated State law by acting as both dealer and broker in car sales transactions without proper licensing.
On March 9, 2015, a federal lawsuit was filed against the company alleging that car dealers have been injured by the company's business practices, which allegedly violated unfair competition and deceptive trade practice laws. Then, on May 20, 2015, a lawsuit was filed against TrueCar in California state court alleging that the company "fail[ed] to obtain the necessary dealer's license and autobroker's endorsement which are required in light of the manner in which TrueCar, Inc. conducts business." On this new, shares of TrueCar fell nearly 7% to close at $13.99 on May 20, 2015.
