Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost is suing a Cincinnati-area dealer who allegedly failed to provide customers with titles for the vehicles they bought – a violation of Ohio’s consumer protection laws.

The complaint, filed in Clermont County, names both Superior Auto Mart and its owner, Tareq Daoud. It follows payouts totaling $14,227.30 from the state’s Title Defect Rescission (TDR) Fund to resolve two consumer complaints. In total, there have been 23 complaints against this business.

The TDR Fund is used to reimburse consumers when a dealership fails to provide a valid title, ensuring that buyers either receive the title and keep the car or get their money back and return the car, preventing them from being left with an unusable vehicle.
