unacceptable dealer fees

Tell them you will buy the car without the BS fees. I do. Walk if they balk.

Well and I am saying cargurus should fix this I know it is not them. However they should stop this horrible practice and yes of course I walked.

What a scam every time. Car Gurus has a deal rating Great deal , Good deal , Fair deal What good is that if the dealerships add $800.00 to the price of the car. Why they do not put the car is .50 cent and there is a $17,000.00 fee. Lets be real. Car Gurus can stop much of this if they wanted too. Like no fees above $500 without being in the add as big as the price.

The dealers should be required to list their fees along with the price. We have all seen these games when trying to buy. And yes, walking away is the only choice. The problem for car gurus is that it makes the website less useful because it takes a lot of time to get to the real price.

$1,369 for PPP fee. Plus a Doc fee of $699. Over 2k in fees!!!! This dealers are nuts!!! That truck will sit until that dummy will come along and buy it. Not me!!!!

Fast forward Oct 2022 - It gets worse: Reconditioning Fee $1195. Certification Fee $1495 (on applicable vehicles). Tax, Title and Tags, Registration Fees - not disclosed. Pre-delivery Service Fee $989. Private Tag Agency Fee $299. That's $3978 in fees, before the Tax, title, tag and registration. Well over $4000! And the dealers won't talk to about them over the phone. Yesterday, the under $18,000 vehicle I went to see ended up at over $25,000. Quoted from timesmojo.com: "Some dealers include an advertising fee on the invoice, but you shouldn’t pay that. Any fees with names like “pre-delivery inspection,” “dealer prep,” “vehicle prep,” or “vehicle procurement” should also be deal-breakers, Consumer Reports says. Those services are part of the dealer destination charge."
