TX State Law — What Borrowers Should Know
Texas does not cap interest rates on motor vehicle installment sales contracts. The Texas Finance Code (Chapter 348) governs retail installment sales and requires full APR disclosure. Fort Worth-area dealers are subject to the same Texas consumer protection laws as Dallas, including the 24-hour repossession notification requirement and the right to redeem before sale. Military borrowers at NAS Fort Worth JRB have additional protections under the Military Lending Act.
