A congressman is asking the House Financial Services Committee to investigate Nissan's auto financing practices, citing a study that claimed blacks paid higher finance charges than whites.

"This study is disturbing and Congress should look into this with an eye toward finding out if the disparities exist with other lenders," said Rep. Harold Ford Jr. (D-Tenn.), a member of the Financial Services Committee and sponsor

of the Consumer Credit Empowerment Act.
