Great presentation, as usual. The biggest problem is that "shopping around" for a dealer that doesn't add on these charges has become almost impossible. One suspects that dealers are in cahoots with each other about these practices.

[@robertduklus6555]

yesterday in ontario I noticed kia dealer charging 2595 dollars for ceramic coating on brand new car. not to mention 599 dollars. since its a public info advertised by the dealer on auto trader its not illegal to say its a cardinal kia from niagara falls.

5:40 Important to note here that all-in pricing is the consumer’s entitlement. All taxable line items within that advertised price are still negotiable. Remind that when a dealer refuses to negotiate based on the “what-you-see-is-what-you-get advertised price”.

I wish he could come with me to the dealership 😅

the sun is shining, the wind is blowing through your hair, and you're cruising down the open road in your beloved VW Beetle. You can't help but feel a sense of joy and freedom as you hit the gas and let the engine roar. As you approach the bank, you can't help but feel a sense of excitement as you plan out all the adventures you'll have with your newly acquired funds. You pull up to the ATM and withdraw all your money, feeling proud of your financial independence and ready to hit the road again. With a full tank of gas and the wind in your hair, the possibilities are endless on this epic road trip.

Another Excellent video. Thank you. Please make a video on when would the used car market will come to normalcy in terms of price.Or is this the new normal with the prices going up for the new cars and used car will be at these prices for a long time to come?

At Hyundai Cambridge, my sister who does not speak good English was charged every possible thing on your list without asking including an extended warranty and disability insurance.

[@Pghyinzer]

Here in New York there is a cap on doc fees at $175. In New Jersey there is no cap. I was quoted $799 doc fee at an NJ dealership. So it pays to remind dealers what other states can charge.

[@ZAR556]

If this goes Viral,, Dealership will change the wording to confuse and mislead the consumer

[@abhijeetbane2088]

I have even seen some dealers asking for additional charges at the time to delivery stating that someone cancelled the car and its available with add-ons.

[@speederz1]

i like when the scummy dealer tells me documtation fees...fee? a 8.00 an hour secretary typing out ur name..

[@Doc1855]

$2K for tire and wheel protection? When someone buys a new car and damage a wheel, their insurance company should pay for damages and tires cost A LOT less than $2 grand. Bend over “Valued Customer” your wonderful dealership is about ready to pork you ! Great video Shari ! Here I thought that only American dealerships screwed their “Valued Customers”, but I can see that Canadian dealerships do it too. I wonder if they learn about this at international car shows?

[@Doc1855]

Or you can have LineX (spray in bed liner) sprayed under your vehicle and it lasts for the lifetime of the vehicle

[@marinaphady6316]

Thank you for a great video. I am picking up a 2023 Rav4 Hybrid in 2 weeks. It is my first hybrid vehicle and I am concerned with the battery and computer systems. Should I consider buying an extended warranty for that?

[@marcprobin1659]

all good to hear. I have a 2023 Prius AWD coming in on mid May and want to make sure that I don't over pay. I preordered the car but the dealership said that they got a hold of one with the same trim as I ordered but in blue, which is fine.

[@RaviTeja-hv9sp]

hi buddy, even i'm planning for prius. could you please let me know the price breakup for which you and dealer agreed-on. is it at MSRP or more than that ?

[@marcprobin1659]

@@RaviTeja-hv9sp I paid 36650 + pdi 1860 × fees 551 less trade in + taxes This is canadian pricing in bc

[@robertclayton4769]

HELP!!! I want to buy from Enterprise Car Sales and they insist on a $399 Adm fee. What do I say to get out of it. Then dont negotiate the sales price of any of their cars. HELP !!!

[@lgbunbury]

This is frightening! I’m going to keep my bike!!!

[@jingjiao8234]

The dealer charged me 499 doc fee…

[@pauln3368]

13% Sales Tax seems high?
