If you were attempting to purchase a car from the dealership, they had a right to check your credit. However, if they just obtained and checked your credit for no reason, you may have a case. The best bet is to contact a lawyer.

Can a dealership send an application for credit approval without a signed credit application?

Yes. In many states, the dealership can send in an application for credit approval without a signed credit application. That is called pre-approval. They can make it real easy for you to buy. The loan does not become official until you sign the papers. You do not owe one cent until you sign the papers and drive off in your car. Still, the dealership can do the work of getting you credit approval before you sign anything.
