On September 8, 2025, Myers Auto Group filed an official data breach notice with the New Hampshire Attorney General. Notification letters went out to people whose information was involved. Recipients of that letter can review their options here for free.
The New Hampshire Attorney General filing confirms the breach notice — not a court case. Settlement amounts, claim deadlines, and opt-in/opt-out instructions appear here only when a public court record supports them. No outcome is estimated or guaranteed.
Myers Auto Group's filing with the New Hampshire Attorney General lists these compromised data types:
These categories are what make the exposure actionable. Sensitive data types carry greater legal weight.
Myers Auto Group operates as a prominent regional automotive enterprise, encompassing a network of dealerships, collision centers, and internal finance and lease departments. Because modern automotive retail involves much more than selling vehicles, the company routinely collects vast amounts of highly sensitive consumer and employee information. To facilitate vehicle sales, process auto loans, execute trade-ins, and manage service appointments, Myers Auto Group gathers deeply personal documentation, including government-issued identification, comprehensive credit histories, banking details, and sensitive tax and employment verification records for financing applications. This extensive collection of consumer and personnel data makes the organization a high-value target for cybercriminals seeking lucrative troves of personally identifiable information.
In 2025, Myers Auto Group reported a significant data security incident to the New Hampshire Attorney General, alerting consumers to an unauthorized intrusion into its network environment. In the context of the retail automotive industry, breaches of this nature typically involve sophisticated cyberattacks such as ransomware deployments, unauthorized entry into centralized dealer management systems (DMS), or compromises of third-party vendor platforms used for financing and customer relationship management. These incidents often exploit vulnerabilities in digital infrastructure, allowing malicious actors to dwell undetected within corporate networks and exfiltrate extensive databases containing unencrypted customer and employee files.
The exposure resulting from the Myers Auto Group breach threatens individuals with severe, long-term risks due to the breadth of information typically processed in automotive transactions. When records containing full legal names, Social Security numbers, dates of birth, driver's license numbers, and financial account details are compromised, victims face an immediate and elevated risk of identity theft, synthetic fraud, and unauthorized loan or credit card applications opened in their names. Furthermore, because automotive dealerships frequently handle co-signer information and trade-in vehicle titles, the breach potentially exposes secondary family members and co-borrowers to financial fraud and targeted phishing schemes.
As a commercial entity handling sensitive consumer and employee records, Myers Auto Group was bound by stringent legal duties under state data protection statutes, including the New Hampshire Consumer Protection Act, as well as overarching federal standards enforced by the Federal Trade Commission regarding unfair or deceptive trade practices and the safeguarding of consumer financial information. These legal obligations mandate the implementation of robust administrative, technical, and physical safeguards—such as multi-factor authentication, end-to-end encryption, regular vulnerability assessments, and strict vendor access controls. The occurrence of a data breach of this magnitude serves as a strong indicator that the company may have failed to maintain adequate security postures, thereby breaching its legal duty of care to protect private data.
Receiving an official data breach notification letter from Myers Auto Group is a formal acknowledgment that your private information was compromised as a direct result of corporate security oversights. Under modern legal frameworks, this notification establishes the necessary legal standing to participate in a class action lawsuit aimed at holding the company accountable for its negligence. Affected individuals do not need to prove that they have already suffered actual financial loss to seek legal recourse; simply having one's data exposed creates compensable harms, including the time and cost of mitigation, credit monitoring expenses, and persistent emotional distress. Our firm handles these complex data privacy cases on a strict contingency fee basis, meaning you pay absolutely nothing out of pocket unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
Eligibility is broader than most people expect: you do not have to prove money was stolen, only that your information was put at risk. You may qualify if any of these apply:
You received a data breach notification letter from Myers Auto Group
You were a customer, patient, employee, or client of Myers Auto Group
Your personal information was stored in Myers Auto Group's systems
Your Social Security number or driver's license number was exposed
Your financial account, credit card, or banking information was disclosed
You reside in the United States (all 50 states eligible)
That letter is legally required and confirms your data was exposed. It also gives you standing to file a claim.
What your notification letter means & what to do next →Four moves to make now — they protect both your identity and your legal position:

Several forms of recovery may be available to Myers Auto Group letter recipients — the exact mix depends on state law and the data types exposed:
Per-incident statutory damages may be available even without proof of fraud; California's $100–$750 statute is the leading example.
Reimbursement for fraud charges, unauthorized transactions, or expenses you incurred as a direct result of the breach.
Time spent handling breach fallout — freezes, disputes, monitoring — is compensable.
Outlays for monitoring services and identity-restoration help belong in your claim.
SSN and driver's license exposure creates long-term identity theft risk. Courts recognize the ongoing value of this harm and may award damages accordingly.
Exposure of financial account or credit/debit card information entitles victims to recover for actual and potential fraud losses.
New Hampshire's breach notification law (RSA 359-C) requires timely notice to affected individuals and the Attorney General. New Hampshire residents may pursue civil action for actual damages and attorney's fees stemming from inadequate data protection.
These organizations also reported breaches to the New Hampshire Attorney General. If their letters reached you too, each may carry its own claim.
