Oak Creek Man Uploads Dissatisfaction With Chicago Auto Dealer

The man says Chicago Motor Cars did him wrong; the dealer fought him in court — and lost.

An Oak Creek man unhappy with a Chicago auto dealer has been prolifically sharing his dissatisfaction on social media.

Today’s TMJ4 reported the story of David Bates, who felt like he was misled by Chicago Motor Cars in West Chicago. Rather than just complain to the dealership, however, he posted dozens of videos to YouTube with titles like “Chicago Motor Cars you suck as a dealership.”

According to the news report, the dealership asked a federal court to force Bates to remove the videos, but lost. So they instead battle back with online responses.
