DMV takes action against two Milwaukee motor vehicle dealers
Following an investigation by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) Dealer and Agent Section, the state of Wisconsin took the following action on the motor vehicle dealer license for these two Milwaukee-area dealers:
- Sherman Auto Empire, LLC. The dealer license was revoked for violating state law when they performed unlicensed sales, failed to transfer titles and deliver title applications to the department within seven business days, and failed to make records available. Sherman Auto Empire’s license was revoked effective December 21, 2023.
- Isaacs Kar Enterprise, LLC. The dealer license will be suspended for seven business days, beginning January 1, 2024, for violating state law when they failed to disclose vehicle conditions in the Buyer’s Guide. The decision to suspend was affirmed by a hearing examiner decision on December 1, 2023. Following a 30-day appeal period, the suspension became final on January 1, 2024.

WisDOT officials are closely monitoring the roads and river levels and will reopen them as soon as it is safe to do so. While it’s difficult to predict if or where flooding may occur, WisDOT offers these tips: Flooding conditions may change rapidly so drive with caution at all times. Never drive through standing water or around barriers. As the safety slogan goes, “Turn Around, Don’t Drown!” It only takes a foot of rushing water to sweep away or float most cars and just two feet of rushing water can carry away SUVs and trucks. Just six inches of floodwater will reach the bottom of most passenger cars, causing loss of control and possible stalling. Stay alert and slow down. Follow designated detour routes if state, county and local roads experience flooding. If you must travel, check 511 Wisconsin for the latest information on any road closures or impacts.
