TTCU Federal Credit Union v. Victoria Puga

Filed: Nov 7, 2025
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s be honest: no one expects their used 2021 Chevy Trax — the automotive equivalent of beige wallpaper — to spark a full-blown legal war. But here we are, in Tulsa County, Oklahoma, where TTCU Federal Credit Union is suing Victoria Puga for $12,822.02 over a car loan that went south faster than a tornado in May. And not because the car exploded or was stolen by a rogue clown convention — no, this drama is far more American: she just stopped paying. That’s it. That’s the crime. Welcome to the wild world of consumer debt litigation, where your monthly car payment can turn into a court summons before you’ve even finished the first season of whatever show you’re watching in the drive-thru.

So who are these people? On one side, we’ve got TTCU Federal Credit Union — a financial institution with a name that sounds like a tech startup founded by accountants. They’re based in Tulsa, they play by the rules (or at least the ones that benefit them), and they’re represented by a law firm called Robinett, Swartz & Duren, which sounds like a trio of 19th-century gunslingers who now specialize in debt collection. On the other side is Victoria Puga, an Oklahoma resident who, on August 5, 2023, walked into Overdrive Automotive Center — a dealership with a name that screams “midlife crisis” — and walked out with a used 2021 Chevrolet Trax, 50,788 miles on the odometer, and a financial obligation that now exceeds the value of the car itself. She didn’t co-sign with anyone, didn’t trade in a vehicle, didn’t even get a break on taxes. Just $1,500 down and a promise to pay $434.25 a month for six years. A classic American transaction: hope, hubris, and compound interest.

Here’s how we got to court. Victoria signed a retail installment contract — a fancy way of saying “I promise to pay you over time or you can take the car and ruin my credit.” The contract was then assigned to TTCU, which means Overdrive got its cash upfront and TTCU got the joy of collecting payments and sending stern letters when those payments don’t show up. Everything was fine, we assume, until it wasn’t. According to the filing, Victoria “failed to pay as agreed.” That’s the legal equivalent of “she ghosted them.” No dramatic repossession story, no dispute about the car’s condition (though it came with no warranties whatsoever — more on that later), just silence where a check should have been. Now TTCU wants its money: $12,822.02 in principal, plus interest at 13.84% per year — a rate so high it could make a payday lender blush — plus court costs and a “reasonable attorney’s fee,” which in debt collection cases like this usually means “whatever the judge thinks won’t make the lawyers cry.”

Why are they in court? Legally, it’s a straightforward breach of contract claim. Victoria signed a piece of paper saying she’d pay $434.25 every month. She didn’t. That’s it. No fraud, no hidden clauses (well, almost), no allegations that she sold the car and fled to Belize. Just a broken promise, enforced by the cold, unfeeling machinery of civil litigation. The credit union isn’t asking for punitive damages, isn’t demanding the car back (at least not in this filing), isn’t even asking for a jury trial. They just want their money, plus interest, plus fees, plus the ability to track Victoria’s employment through the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission — which, yes, is a thing courts can do. If TTCU wins, they can force the state to hand over her job history for the past four quarters, presumably so they can figure out where to garnish her wages. It’s not Die Hard, but it’s got its own quiet menace.

Now, about that $12,822.02. Is that a lot? Well, for a used Chevy Trax in 2023, it’s… complicated. The total sale price on the contract was $32,766 — $1,500 down, $21,042 financed, and $10,224 in finance charges over six years. Let that sink in: she’s paying over $10,000 in interest just to drive a compact SUV that depreciates faster than a smartphone. The APR? 13.84%. That’s higher than the average credit card rate, and this isn’t a cash advance — it’s a car loan. And buried in the charges: a $995 “optional” gap contract (which she apparently agreed to, signed by someone named “Victoria Rogers” — a mystery for another day), $249 for “PREP” (a fee so vague it might as well be “vibes”), and $2,495 paid to a company called Portfolio — possibly an old debt being rolled in, a common move at shady dealerships. So yes, $12,822 is a lot — especially when the car was worth maybe $18,000 when she bought it.

And what do they want? Money. Specifically, $12,822.02, plus interest, plus costs, plus attorney fees. They also want the court to issue an order forcing the state to hand over Victoria’s employment records — a move that suggests they’re preparing for collection mode, not negotiation. No mention of repossession in the petition, which is odd, because usually creditors go after the car first. Maybe it’s already been taken. Maybe it’s underwater and not worth the effort. Or maybe TTCU just wants the cash and doesn’t care about the vehicle. Either way, they’re treating this like a pure debt collection play — cold, clinical, and slightly dystopian.

Our take? The most absurd part isn’t the amount, or the interest rate, or even the fact that someone is being sued over a car payment. It’s the warranty disclaimer. Let this sink in: Overdrive Automotive Center sold Victoria a used car and legally washed their hands of any responsibility for it. No implied warranties. No guarantee it works. Nothing. The contract literally says, “Unless the Seller makes a written warranty… the Seller makes no warranties, express or implied.” So she paid over $32,000 for a car that could, theoretically, be a rolling junkyard fire, and the dealership would say, “Not our problem.” And yet — yet — if she fails to pay, the full weight of the legal system kicks in. The credit union can sue, track her job, garnish wages, wreck her credit. But if the transmission falls out on day two? Tough luck. That’s the American consumer finance dream: maximum liability for the buyer, maximum protection for everyone else.

We’re not rooting for anyone to lose their car. But we are rooting for someone — anyone — to look at this system and say, “Wait, this is insane.” A woman buys a used SUV, signs a contract longer than a Tolstoy novel, gets zero promises about the car working, and then gets sued like she committed grand larceny when she misses a payment. Meanwhile, the dealership walks away clean, the credit union plays hardball, and the state helps them track her job. The real crime here isn’t the missed payment. It’s that this is considered normal.

IN THE DISTRICT COURT IN AND FOR TULSA COUNTY, STATE OF OKLAHOMA TTCU FEDERAL CREDIT UNION, Plaintiff, v. VICTORIA PUGA, Defendant. Case No: PETITION Plaintiff, TTCU Federal Credit Union ("TTCU"), by its attorneys, ROBINETT, SWARTZ & DUREN, for its claims against the Defendant, Victoria Puga, alleges the following: 1. TTCU 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 August 5, 2023, Defendant entered into a retail installment contract that was assigned to TTCU. See "Exhibit A". 5. Defendant is in default under the terms of the agreement as the Defendant has failed to pay as agreed. 6. There is currently due to TTCU on the subject agreement, the principal sum of $12,822.02, with interest accruing thereafter on the principal balance at the rate of 13.84% per annum, until paid, the costs of this action, accrued and accruing, and a reasonable attorney's fee. 7. 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). 8. 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, Victoria Puga, for the principal sum of $12,822.02, with interest accruing thereafter on the principal balance at the rate of 13.84%, per annum, until paid; the costs of this 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. Plaintiff further requests that upon entry of judgment, the Court also enter an Order directing the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission to produce employment information on the judgment debtor(s), as more fully set out above.

WITHOUT SUCH INSURANCE YOU MAY NOT OPERATE THIS VEHICLE ON PUBLIC HIGHWAYS. LAW 553-OK-ARB-eps 8/23 v1 Page 2 of 5 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. 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 (redeem). We will tell you how much to pay to redeem. Your right to redeem ends when we sell the vehicle. 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 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. 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. g. 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. SERVICING AND COLLECTION CONTACTS In consideration of our extension of credit to you, you agree to provide us your contact information for our servicing and collection purposes. You agree that we may use this information 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. You agree to allow our agents and service providers to contact you as agreed above. You agree that you will, within a reasonable time, notify us of any change in your contact information. 5. APPLICABLE LAW Federal law and the law of the state of Oklahoma apply to this contract. 6. NEGATIVE CREDIT REPORT NOTICE We may report information about your account to credit bureaus. Late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report. NOTICE: ANY HOLDER OF THIS CONSUMER CREDIT CONTRACT IS SUBJECT TO ALL CLAIMS AND DEFENSES WHICH THE DEBTOR COULD ASSERT AGAINST THE SELLER OF GOODS OR SERVICES OBTAINED PURSUANT HERETO OR WITH THE PROCEEDS HEREOF.

The preceding NOTICE applies only to goods or services obtained primarily for personal, family, or household use. In all other cases, Buyer will not assert against any subsequent holder or assignee of this contract any claims or defenses the Buyer (debtor) may have against the Seller, or against the manufacturer of the vehicle or equipment obtained under this contract. ARBITRATION PROVISION PLEASE REVIEW • IMPORTANT • AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS 1. EITHER YOU OR WE MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US DECIDED BY ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL. 2.

Any claim or dispute, whether in contract, tort, statute or otherwise (including the interpretation and scope of this Arbitration Provision, any allegation of waiver of rights under 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.

You and we will pay the filing, administration, service, or case management fee and the arbitrator or hearing fee over $5,000 in accordance with the rules and procedures of the chosen arbitration organization. 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.

Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitrator's award. This Arbitration Provision shall survive any termination, payoff or transfer of this contract.

You agree that you expressly waive any right you may have for a claim or dispute to be resolved on a class basis in court or in arbitration. If a court or arbitrator finds that this class arbitration waiver is unenforceable for any reason with respect to a claim or dispute in which class allegations have been made, the rest of this Arbitration Provision shall also be unenforceable.
