COLUMBUS -- A Ricart auto dealership affiliate will pay up to $17 million to settle a federal class-action lawsuit accusing it of wrongfully charging customers for a theft-deterrent system and misleading them about finance charges. An estimated 36,000 Pay Days customers will be eligible to collect $500 payouts -- minus attorney fees -- from the recent settlement, according to court documents.
