FTC Warns Auto Dealers: Advertised Prices Must Include All Mandatory Fees

This includes mandatory fees beyond taxes or government charges. The goal is to prevent lowball ads and surprise add-ons, promoting fair shopping and competitive honest sellers. This move aligns with the FTCs broader efforts for clear pricing in various sectors, aiming to boost affordability by eliminating hidden charges. Dealers now face regulatory scrutiny, with the FTC promising intervention if issues persist.
