TTCU Federal Credit Union v. Carina Mondragon

Filed: Mar 3, 2026
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s get one thing straight: Carina Mondragon didn’t just borrow a few grand to cover a tire change or a fender bender. No, she financed a used 2019 Chevrolet Traverse for $67,791—yes, that’s seventy-seven thousand dollars when you include interest and fees—and now a credit union is suing her for $44,095.15, plus interest, legal costs, and a side of shame. That’s not a car loan. That’s a mortgage with cupholders.

But let’s rewind. Who is Carina Mondragon? We don’t know much, but we know this: she lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma, drives (or drove) a hulking SUV better suited for a suburban soccer dynasty than a solo commuter, and once signed her name to a stack of paperwork so thick it could’ve doubled as a doorstop. On April 11, 2022, she walked into Classic Chevrolet on Owasso Expressway, traded in her 2017 Nissan Rogue (which owed more than it was worth), and walked out with a new-to-her Traverse—plus a financial time bomb disguised as a retail installment contract. The kicker? Her down payment wasn’t cash. It wasn’t even positive. It was negative—$4,954 in the hole, thanks to Classic Chevrolet paying off her old loan with Credit Acceptance Corporation. So not only did she not put money down—she started the deal owing money before the engine even turned over.

And who’s the plaintiff? TTCU Federal Credit Union, Tulsa’s very own financial institution that apparently decided, “Hey, why not back a $67k loan on a used SUV with a trade-in deficit and a buyer who hasn’t even made their first payment yet?” Classic Chevrolet, ever the helpful sales partner, promptly assigned the contract to TTCU without recourse, meaning they washed their hands of the risk. If this were a movie, that’s when the ominous music would start.

So what happened? According to the filing, Carina missed her payments. That’s it. That’s the whole crime. The contract says she was supposed to start paying $897.19 a month beginning July 10, 2022—just under three months after signing. But somewhere between the ink drying and the first due date, things went sideways. She didn’t pay. TTCU, not in the business of charity or free cars, repossessed the Traverse in what they describe as a “commercially reasonable manner”—legal speak for “we took it back without calling the cops or starting a TikTok feud.” Then they sold it. Again, “commercially reasonable.” But the sale didn’t cover what she owed. Now, nearly $44,100 in unpaid principal remains, plus interest ticking up at 7.49% per year—roughly $9 per day, every day, like a financial drip from a leaky faucet no one can fix.

Now, why are we in court? Because TTCU wants a judgment. Specifically, they’re suing for breach of contract—the most vanilla, bread-and-butter claim in civil court. They’re saying, “She signed a contract. She agreed to pay. She didn’t. Now she owes us.” And legally, they’re not wrong. The contract is stacked with clauses: late fees, repossession rights, arbitration agreements, and a laundry list of fees that read like a used car dealer’s greatest hits. There’s a $1,000 “gap contract” (which protects lenders if the car is totaled), a $6,000 “service contract” (because heaven forbid the Traverse’s cupholder breaks), and a $498 doc fee—because someone had to cover the cost of printing all that paper, we guess. The total financed? $67,791. For a used SUV that, according to Kelley Blue Book, was worth somewhere between $25,000 and $32,000 at the time. Let that sink in: she borrowed double the car’s market value.

And what do they want? $44,095.15 in principal, plus interest, plus attorney’s fees (capped at 15% of the balance, per the contract), plus court costs. They also want a sneaky little add-on: an order forcing the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission to hand over Carina’s employment records for the past four quarters. Translation: “If we win, we want to know where she works so we can garnish her wages.” This isn’t just about getting paid. This is about making sure she can’t hide.

Is $44,000 a lot? In car loan terms, absolutely. In personal debt terms, life-changing. For context, the average American car loan is around $30,000 for a new vehicle. This was a used one. And yet, here we are, watching a credit union come after someone for nearly half a C-note because a financial house of cards collapsed under its own weight. Was Carina duped? Possibly. Was Classic Chevrolet aggressive with add-ons? The $6,000 service contract alone raises eyebrows like a soap opera cliffhanger. But the contract is clear: she signed it. She initialed the arbitration clause. She acknowledged receiving a full copy. And she didn’t dispute the debt within 35 days of being served—meaning, under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, TTCU can assume the debt is valid.

So where’s the absurdity? Oh, it’s everywhere. It’s in the math. It’s in the fact that a used SUV inspired a loan larger than many people’s annual salaries. It’s in the $6,000 “service contract” that likely covered oil changes and tire rotations for five years—because apparently, in Oklahoma, preventative maintenance costs more than a year of rent in some cities. It’s in the credit union’s cold, clinical demand for wage-tracking data like they’re building a dossiers on debtors. And it’s in the sheer scale of this dispute: not a fender bender, not a missed payment on a Honda Civic, but a six-figure financial disaster wrapped in a midsize SUV.

Are we rooting for Carina? Honestly? We’re rooting for the audit. Someone—anyone—needs to look at this transaction and ask: how does a 2019 Traverse become a $67k loan? Was she upsold into oblivion? Did the dealership inflate the price to cover their own risk? And why is a credit union okay with financing negative equity on a used car? This isn’t just a breach of contract. It’s a symptom of a system where car dealers, lenders, and add-on salesmen turn vehicle purchases into high-stakes gambling—and the consumer is always the one holding the losing hand.

So while TTCU may win this case—and likely will, because again, she signed the contract—the real verdict should be on how we got here. Because if this is what “commercially reasonable” looks like, maybe it’s time we redefined the term.

Plaintiff is a credit union with its principal place of business in Tulsa, Oklahoma. 2. Defendant is a citizen of Oklahoma. 3. The agreement sued upon in this action was executed and breached in Tulsa County, Oklahoma. 4. On or about April 11th, 2022, Defendant executed a retail installment contract that was assigned to TTCU. See page 5 "Exhibit A". 5. Defendant is in default under the terms of the note by failing to make payments as agreed. 6. Plaintiff repossessed the collateral securing the agreement and sold same in a commercially reasonable manner and provided all notices required by law. 7. There is currently due to the Plaintiff on the subject note, the principal sum of $44,095.15 with interest accruing on the principal balance at the rate of 7.49% per annum, until paid, the costs of this action, accrued and accruing, and a reasonable attorney's fee. 8. Plaintiff requests that upon entry of judgment herein in favor of the Plaintiff, that the Court also enter an Order directing the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission ("OESC") to produce information in its possession concerning the employment of the judgment debtor(s) for the preceding four quarters, upon service of a certified copy of said Order on the OESC in accordance with 40 I.S. § 4-508(D). Plaintiff further requests that the Order direct the OESC to produce the requested information within 35 days from the date of service of the Order, pursuant to 40 O.S. § 4-508(D). 9. Pursuant to Title 15 U.S.C. § 1692(g), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, if applicable, unless the person or entity responsible for the payment of the above debt, within thirty-five days after receipt of this notice, disputes the validity of the debt, or any portion thereof, the debt will be assumed to be valid; and if said person or entity notifies the undersigned attorney for Plaintiff in writing within said thirty-five day period that the debt, or any portion thereof, is disputed, said attorney will obtain verification of the debt and a copy of such verification will be mailed to said person or entity by the undersigned attorney for Plaintiff; and upon written request by you within the thirty-five day period, the undersigned attorney for Plaintiff will provide the name and address of the original creditor, if different from the current creditor. The law does not require me to wait until the end of the thirty-five day period following first contact with you before suing you to collect the debt. Even though the law provides that your answer to the petition is to be filed in this action within 35 days, you may obtain an extension of that time. Furthermore, no request will be made to the Court for a judgment until the expiration of thirty-five days after your receipt of this petition and summons. However, if you request proof of the debt or the name and address of the original creditor within the thirty-five day period that begins with your receipt of this petition and summons, the law requires me to cease my efforts (through litigation or otherwise) until I mail the requested information to you. You should consult an attorney for advice concerning your rights and obligations in this suit. This is an attempt to collect a debt (with the exception of a discharged debt in bankruptcy) and any information obtained will be used for that purpose. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff TTCU Federal Credit Union requests judgment against the Defendant, Carina Mondragon, for the principal sum of $44,095.15, with interest accruing on the principal balance at the rate of 7.49% per annum, until paid; the costs of the action, accrued and accruing, and a reasonable attorney's fee, as well as all other and further relief to which the Plaintiff may be entitled.

X N/A N/A Buyer Signature Date X N/A N/A Co-Buyer Signature Date THIS INSURANCE DOES NOT INCLUDE INSURANCE ON YOUR LIABILITY FOR BODILY INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE CAUSED TO OTHERS. WITHOUT SUCH INSURANCE YOU MAY NOT OPERATE THIS VEHICLE ON PUBLIC HIGHWAYS. OTHER IMPORTANT AGREEMENTS 1. FINANCE CHARGE AND PAYMENTS a. How we will figure Finance Charge. We will figure the Finance Charge on a daily basis at the Annual Percentage Rate on the unpaid part of the Amount Financed. b. How we will apply payments. We may apply each payment to the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, to the unpaid part of the Amount Financed and to other amounts you owe under this contract in any order we choose as the law allows. c. How late payments or early payments change what you must pay. We based the Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price shown on page 1 of this contract on the assumption that you will make every payment on the day it is due. Your Finance Charge, Total of Payments, and Total Sale Price will be more if you pay late and less if you pay early. Changes may take the form of a larger or smaller final payment or, at our option, more or fewer payments of the same amount as your scheduled payment with a smaller final payment. We will send you a notice telling you about these changes before the final scheduled payment is due. d. You may prepay. You may prepay all or part of the unpaid part of the Amount Financed at any time without penalty. If you do so, you must pay the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge and all other amounts due up to the date of your payment. e. Your right to refinance a balloon payment. A balloon payment is a scheduled payment that is more than twice as large as the average of your earlier scheduled payments. If you are buying the vehicle primarily for personal, family or household use, you have the right to refinance the balloon payment when due without penalty. The terms of the refinancing will be no less favorable to you than the terms of this contract. This provision does not apply if we adjusted your payment schedule to your seasonal or irregular income. 2. YOUR OTHER PROMISES TO US a. If the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. You agree to pay us all you owe under this contract even if the vehicle is damaged, destroyed, or missing. b. Using the vehicle. You agree not to remove the vehicle from the U.S. or Canada, or to sell, rent, lease, or transfer any interest in the vehicle or this contract without our written permission. You agree not to expose the vehicle to misuse, seizure, confiscation, or involuntary transfer. If we pay any repair bills, storage bills, taxes, fines, or charges on the vehicle, you agree to repay the amount when we ask for it. c. Security Interest. You give us a security interest in: • The vehicle and all parts or goods put on it; • All money or goods received (proceeds) for the vehicle; • All insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you; and • All proceeds from insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts we finance for you. This includes any refunds of premiums or charges from the contracts. This secures payment of all you owe on this contract. It also secures your other agreements in this contract. You will make sure the title shows our security interest (lien) in the vehicle. You will not allow any other security interest to be placed on the title without our written permission. d. Insurance you must have on the vehicle. You agree to have physical damage insurance covering loss of or damage to the vehicle for the term of this contract. The insurance must cover our interest in the vehicle. You agree to name us on your insurance policy as an additional insured and as loss payee. If you do not have this insurance, we may, if we choose, buy physical damage insurance. If we decide to buy physical damage insurance, we may either buy insurance that covers your interest and our interest in the vehicle, or buy insurance that covers only our interest. If we buy either type of insurance, we will tell you which type and the charge you must pay. The charge will be the premium for the insurance and a finance charge computed at the Annual Percentage Rate shown on page 1 of this contract. If the vehicle is lost or damaged, you agree that we may use any insurance settlement to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. e. What happens to returned insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges. If we get a refund of insurance, maintenance, service, or other contract charges, you agree that we may subtract the refund from what you owe. 3. IF YOU PAY LATE OR BREAK YOUR OTHER PROMISES a. You may owe late charges. You will pay a late charge on each late payment as shown on page 1 of this contract. Acceptance of a late payment does not excuse your late payment or mean that you may keep making late payments. If you pay late, we may also take the steps described below. b. You may have to pay all you owe at once. If you break your promises (default), we may demand that you pay all you owe on this contract at once. Default means: • You do not pay any payment on time; • You give false, incomplete, or misleading information during credit application; • You start a proceeding in bankruptcy or one is started against you or your property; or • You break any agreements in this contract. The amount you will owe will be the unpaid part of the Amount Financed plus the earned and unpaid part of the Finance Charge, any late charges, and any amounts due because you defaulted. c. You may have to pay collection costs. If we hire an attorney who is not our salaried employee to collect what you owe, you will pay the attorney's fee and court costs the law permits. The maximum attorney's fee you will pay will be 15% of the amount you owe, unless a court awards an additional amount. d. We may take the vehicle from you. If you default, we may take (repossess) the vehicle from you if we do so peacefully and if the law allows it. If your vehicle has an electronic tracking device (such as GPS), you agree that we may use the device to find the vehicle. If we take the vehicle, any accessories, equipment, and replacement parts will stay with the vehicle. If any personal items are in the vehicle, we may store them for you. If you do not ask for these items back, we may dispose of them as the law allows. e. How you can get the vehicle back if we take it. If we repossess the vehicle, you may pay to get it back (redroom). We will tell you how much to pay to redeen. Your right to redeem ends when we sell the vehicle. 1. We will sell the vehicle if you do not get it back. If you do not redeem, we will sell the vehicle. We will send you a written notice of sale before selling the vehicle. We will apply the money from the sale, less allowed expenses, to the amount you owe. Allowed expenses are expenses we pay as a direct result of taking the vehicle, holding it, preparing it for sale, and selling it. Attorney fees and court costs, if the law permits, are also allowed expenses. If any money is left (surplus), we will pay it to you unless the law requires us to pay it to someone else. If money from the sale is not enough to pay the amount you owe, you must pay the rest to us unless the law provides otherwise. If you do not pay this amount when we ask, we may charge you interest at a rate not exceeding the highest lawful rate until you pay. 2. What we may do about optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. This contract may contain charges for optional insurance, maintenance, service, or other contracts. If we demand that you pay all you owe at once or we repossess the vehicle, you agree that we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe or repair the vehicle. If the vehicle is a total loss because it is confiscated, damaged, or stolen, we may claim benefits under these contracts and cancel them to obtain refunds of unearned charges to reduce what you owe. 4. WARRANTIES SELLER DISCLAIMS Unless the Seller makes a written warranty, or enters into a service contract within 90 days from the date of this contract, the Seller makes no warranties, express or implied, on the vehicle, and there will be no implied warranties of merchantability or of fitness for a particular purpose. This provision does not affect any warranties covering the vehicle that the vehicle manufacturer may provide. 5. SERVICING AND COLLECTION CONTACTS You agree that we may try to contact you in writing, by e-mail, or using prerecorded/artificial voice messages, text messages, and automatic telephone dialing systems, as the law allows. You also agree that we may try to contact you in these and other ways at any address or telephone number you provide us, even if the telephone number is a cell phone number or the contact results in a charge to you. 6. APPLICABLE LAW Federal law and the law of the state of Oklahoma apply to this contract. ARBITRATION PROVISION PLEASE REVIEW - IMPORTANT - AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS 1. EITHER YOU OR WE MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US DECIDED BY ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. 2. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU WILL GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. 3. DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. Any claim or dispute, whether in contract, tort, statute or otherwise (including the interpretation and scope of this Arbitration Provision, and the arbitrability of the claim or dispute), between you and us or our employees, agents, successors or assigns, which arises out of or relates to your credit application, purchase or condition of this vehicle, this contract or any resulting transaction or relationship (including any such relationship with third parties who do not sign this contract) shall, at your or our election, be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration and not by a court action. If federal law provides that a claim or dispute is not subject to binding arbitration, this Arbitration Provision shall not apply to such claim or dispute. Any claim or dispute is to be arbitrated by a single arbitrator on an individual basis and not as a class action. You expressly waive any right you may have to arbitrate a class action. You may choose the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) or any other organization to conduct the arbitration subject to our approval. You may get a copy of the rules of an arbitration organization by contacting the organization or visiting its website. Arbitrators shall be attorneys or retired judges and shall be selected pursuant to the applicable rules. The arbitrator shall apply governing substantive law and the applicable statute of limitations. The arbitration hearing shall be conducted in the federal district in which you reside unless the Seller-Creditor is a party to the claim or dispute, in which case the hearing will be held in the federal district where this contract was executed. We will pay your filing, administration, service or case management fee and your arbitrator or hearing fee all up to a maximum of $5000, unless the law or the rules of the chosen arbitration organization require us to pay more. The amount we pay may be reimbursed in whole or in part by decision of the arbitrator if the arbitrator finds that any of your claims is frivolous under applicable law. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorney, expert and other fees, unless awarded by the arbitrator under applicable law. If the chosen arbitration organization’s rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision, then the provisions of this Arbitration Provision shall control. Any arbitration under this Arbitration Provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) and not by any state law concerning arbitration. Any award by the arbitrator shall be in writing and will be final and binding on all parties, subject to any limited right to appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. You and we retain the right to seek remedies in small claims court for disputes or claims within that court’s jurisdiction, unless such action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court.
