Do you have the dealership's statement in writing? if so sue them or report them to the state of Michigan.. the ag office has a consumer help line.

The answer depends on analysis of the documents you signed. Did the dealership or you agree with the rental establishment to pay for the rental? If the former, you had no responsibility at all and the debit was improper. If the latter, you owed the rental establishment money, although you had the right to get that money from the dealership. Even if you contracted with the rental establishment, did you authorize the rental establishment to take money from your account?
