How can I get rid of negative inquiries from car dealerships trying to get me an auto loan?

 This has happened to me.  When I go to an auto dealer, lets say a Toyota dealer.  I authorize that dealer to only apply for credit with Toyota Financial.  No one else.  IF i receive denials from other lenders, I write them and indicate that the auto dealer did not have my permission to apply for credit, with them.  80% of them, will remove the inquiry.  To help even further, when I apply for credit and I sign the credit app, I add a note next to my signature indicating that only ONE inquiry is permitted and who I allowed.  That stops the aut dealer from sending it to 30 different banks looking for an approval.  Hope this helps.  It has worked for me.
