Your rates of bank

Dear Dr. Don,
Seven credit inquiries were generated when I took out a loan on a car I purchased in June 2007. Recently, I noticed on my credit report that all seven inquires are listed. However, they were all for the one car loan. I am trying to see if I will be able to get the others removed, as the car loan is with CitiFinancial.
I heard that all the inquiries for the car loan are only supposed to be counted as one inquiry, so why can’t the other inquiries be removed? I would appreciate any information you could give me regarding this matter.
