We will see if I get a response. Had an attorney send a demand letter with an expiration date of 07/10; no response. I have now filed an insurance claim and hopefully we can get something resolved.

I have tried to reach out to Chris Charay multiple times, and he either refuses to call me back or does not care about the problem we have. We are now past the 30 day limit that the State of Missouri gives us to title a new vehicle with out late fees.
