Commerce Bank v. Juan Aguirre

Filed: Mar 10, 2026
Type: CJ

What's This Case About?

Let’s get one thing straight: Juan Aguirre didn’t just fall behind on his car payments. He got repossessed. And now, months later, he’s being sued for over thirteen grand—not because he stole the car, not because he crashed it into a Wendy’s, but because the math after the repo didn’t add up in his favor. That’s right: a debt collector is now suing an Oklahoma man for $13,233.02 because a 2020 Nissan Murano didn’t sell for enough at auction. Welcome to America, where your used crossover can haunt you like a vengeful ghost.

So who are these people? On one side, we’ve got Juan Aguirre, a resident of Heavener, Oklahoma—a town so small it makes your GPS question its life choices. He’s not a co-buyer, not a joint account holder, just a lone guy who, like millions of Americans, probably thought buying a car on credit was the same as owning it. Spoiler: it’s not. On the other side? Commerce Bank, Assignee of Teeter Motor Company—the legal equivalent of a corporate doppelgänger. This isn’t some local bank with a friendly teller who knows your dog’s name. This is a Missouri-based banking corporation that bought Aguirre’s loan contract after he signed it with Teeter Motor Company in Malvern, Arkansas. And now, they’re the ones holding the bag—and the lawsuit.

Here’s how this slow-motion financial disaster unfolded. Back on September 28, 2024, Juan signed on the dotted line for a used 2020 Nissan Murano. The total sale price? $32,923. He put down $1,639—part cash, part trade-in of his old 2014 Rogue—and financed the rest. His monthly payment? A tidy $417.12, due every month starting November 12, 2024. The interest rate? A spicy 12.14% APR, which is what happens when you buy a car with financing that feels suspiciously like a payday loan in disguise. Oh, and just for fun, he also paid $900 for a “GAP contract”—a little financial Hail Mary that’s supposed to cover the difference if the car gets totaled or repossessed and sells for less than what’s owed. Classic move. Like buying insurance on your insurance.

But somewhere between fall 2024 and summer 2025, Juan stopped paying. We don’t know why—maybe the job dried up, maybe the transmission didn’t, maybe he just decided life would be better without a car payment. Whatever the reason, he defaulted. And when you default on a car loan, the lender doesn’t send you a passive-aggressive text. They send a repo man. And that’s exactly what happened. The Nissan Murano was either repossessed or “voluntarily surrendered”—legal code, perhaps, for “we found it parked behind a Dollar General with a note that said ‘take it.’”

Then came the paperwork ballet. On June 12, 2025, Commerce Bank sent Juan a Notice of Our Plan to Sell Property—a document so dry it could suck the moisture out of a cactus. It informed him that his Murano would be sold after June 22, 2025, and that if the sale didn’t cover what he owed, he’d still be on the hook for the difference. This, by the way, is how car loans work: you don’t just lose the car. You can lose the car and owe thousands on top of it. On July 25, 2025, the Murano was sold at auction—for $9,800. Not a terrible price for a four-year-old crossover, but nowhere near enough to cover the $22,259.82 Juan still owed at the time of sale.

Then the math got creative. The bank calculated the deficiency—what’s left after the sale—as $13,755.55. But wait, there’s more! They tacked on nearly $1,300 in “expenses of sale,” including a $995 “standard bundled vendor fee” that covers repossession, storage, title work, resale prep, photos, cleanup, and correspondence service—because apparently, sending letters costs more than some people’s rent. There’s also a $25 tow fee and $275.73 for “additional resale/repair fee.” No breakdown. No itemized invoice. Just a line item that says “we spent money, you pay.” And Juan? He gets zero refund on that $900 GAP insurance he bought—because, well, the filing says so.

Fast-forward to January 5, 2026, and Commerce Bank, via their legal gladiator Crystal Griffin of Berman & Rabin, P.A., files a petition in Le Flore County District Court. The claim? Breach of contract—because Juan didn’t pay, they declared the full balance due, repossessed the car, sold it, and now want the remaining $13,233.02. That’s not $13,804.50, the original amount claimed—it’s slightly less, because someone somewhere did a recalibration. But still: over thirteen thousand bucks. For a car he no longer has. For a loan he thought he was paying off in installments. And let’s be real: $13,000 is not chump change. That’s a year of rent in some parts of Oklahoma. That’s a down payment on another car. That’s a full college semester. For many people, it’s everything.

Now, what do they want? Judgment for $13,233.02, plus 6% interest from the date of judgment, plus court costs. They also want a special order under Oklahoma law that would let them track Juan’s employment information through the state’s unemployment commission—so they can, presumably, garnish wages if they win. This isn’t just about getting paid. This is about making sure Juan can’t disappear into the ether. They want a paper trail, a paycheck, and a path to getting every last dollar.

And here’s the most absurd part: Juan didn’t even get to keep the car. He didn’t drive it into a lake. He didn’t sell it on Facebook Marketplace to some guy in Tulsa. He didn’t vanish with the keys and a smirk. He just… stopped paying. And now he’s being sued for more than half the original value of the vehicle—after it was sold. Meanwhile, the bank got the car, sold it, kept the money, charged him for the repossession, and is now coming after him like he committed financial treason. And the kicker? That $900 GAP insurance he paid? Worthless. It didn’t cover a dime. Either it expired, was canceled, or had a loophole wide enough to drive another Murano through.

Look, we’re not saying Juan didn’t sign a contract. He did. We’re not saying he shouldn’t be responsible for his debts. He should. But there’s something deeply dystopian about a system where a person can lose their car, lose thousands in payments already made, and still owe more than the car was worth when it was repossessed. Where “commercially reasonable” includes charging $995 for a bundle of services with no transparency. Where a “deficiency balance” feels less like math and more like alchemy.

We’re rooting for transparency. We’re rooting for Juan to at least get a real explanation of those fees. We’re rooting for someone, somewhere, to ask why a repossession costs more than a used iPad. And we’re rooting for the day when buying a car doesn’t feel like signing your soul over to a spreadsheet in Missouri.

But for now? Juan Aguirre vs. The Entire Concept of Car Financing, Round Two: The Deficiency. Court’s in session. And the Murano, wherever it is, is probably doing just fine.

X C N/A N/A Buyer Signature Date X C 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. 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 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. 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 or late charge 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 to collect what you owe, you will pay the attorney's fee and court costs as the law allows. 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 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. f. 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 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. 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. 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.
