Sue for what reason? What damage does running your credit do? You can only sue someone if you have been harmed in some way.
Did you attempt to finance a car, and sign a purchase order? If so, they had every right to run your credit. If you'd like to give more detail, perhaps you can get a more specific answer. |

If you went to a dealer and filled out any paperwork to purchase a car, they would check your credit. If you had any intelligence you would know this. It would appear that you do not, because you want to sue them for doing their job. |

If you are planning to buy a car, they have the right to check to see if you are going to pay them back. |

If you applied for a loan through the car dealer yes he can legally run a credit report.
If you did not ask for a loan through the car dealer then he is in the wrong. Whether you can sue him would be up to a judge if you submit legal action.
Just because you sue someone does not mean that the action will make past the judge. It can be thrown out of court as a frivolous law suit |

You mean, checks your credit??? Of course not. you think he's going to let you finance a car if your credit stinks? Get real! |

How did they?
They had enough info to run the check.
You must have given them info somewhere. |

I would wonder why he ran it if there was no signed contract to do so. If you were applying for a car loan, you signed a release to allow a credit check or he would have a problem getting it. This isn't public info and he would not pay for a check if not having some type assurance that you were going to purchase a vehicle from him. Could have been a preliminary check. |

WITH THE CORRECT DOCUMENTATION TO SUPPORT YOUR CLAIM, YES YOU CAN BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THIS DONE BEFORE. |

Yes you can. It is invasion of privacy, and it is credit damaging when your credit gets run.
Speak with an attorney. |
