On this week's episode of RYGTBKM, a Toyota dealership in Arizona pays $60k to settle claims of false advertising on their Internet prices; a Nissan dealership falsely advertises the price of a used Tesla Model 3; and Stellantis lays off more workers and closes 3 of its business centers!

I just started a new case with the Florida Attorney General against all Autonation dealerships in the state of Florida. Since 2004 They have been charging a $199 tag agency / electronic filing fee on every single deal but the tag agency only charges them $74. On paperwork they make it look like those are mandatory statutory fees that you must pay with every single purchase. The customer never sees a penny from the kickback check Autonation gets from this titling company of $124 per deal. They have a hell of a side hustle going! They are deceiving the public and have been for 20 years. I’m going to take them to the cleaners. I hate to be the whistleblower, but I also hate to be taken for a fool. I was told by the GM at dealership I purchased two mustangs that the fees are convenience fees, even though they don’t state that anywhere. I am requesting they refund every single customer who has purchased a vehicle since 2004 from any of their Florida dealerships $124 each.

I also lived in CA for 20 years and now live in FL which elect their Attorneys General.

Low mileage for a car 24 years old (last year). Now it's a classic at 25 years old.

Dear Ray and Zack. Thank you for always posting informative and frank content. We live in Ventura County CA and unfortunately our state’s Attorney General has no desire or backbone to stop dealers from gouging the customers. I filed a complaint with his office about some of the similar crappy practices you guys talk about. His response, basically “car businesses in this state can do what they want and their office cannot dictate how they should conduct business “ which is why I see so many of these shady things still going on. I can give you multiple first-hand experiences but I am sure you are already know about all these unwanted add-ons, market adjustments (really? Even now?), low published price on sites such as Autotrader, only to say oops, was a mistake, etc. I have been in the market for over two years to buy. Pick up but refuse to buy with such unfair stuff going on, especially with Nissan, Toyota, and Dodge/Ram dealers near me.

[@Commenter_42]

Nobody says you have to buy a car in California. Buy it in a different state. Problem solved.

[@mindfullymellow2323]

If it’s an option, make a deal with a Midwest dealer that isn’t gouging. Many aren’t these days. Then fly to pick up your new ride and drive home, as several of my Cali and Florida friends have done. Or hire a car broker to make a deal for you. I had 20 different Chicago area Toyota and Mazda dealers pleading for my business last month. Ultimately drove off with a sweet deal on a CX 5. Tip: get the numbers in writing before making a trip. Eliminate those dealers who won’t.

[@AS-ru6lg]

Thanks for the suggestions. Perhaps it is my terrible luck. I have connected with dealers in all adjacent states and as far as Texas but when the moment of truth arrives, they are the same. It must be something inherently bad with how Nissan, Toyota, and Ram dealers operate these days. Not considering Ford/GMC for quality issues noted on many online posts.

[@Echo30Mike]

All this money that the state makes from fines is chump change compared to the money they've been defrauding the customers. The customers should be getting their money back + interest, not the courts. These business's should be audited every 5 years - every sale. Each count of false advertising or fraud detected, they should face a separate charge for that. This will stop them in their tracks - the length and breadth of the country. Part of the problem in the USA is that ALL retail outlets put one price on the shelf for an item , but at the till, they add on tax. In the UK, this is illegal. If they charge 1p over the price advertised on the shelf, they can face fines so high that the retailers could go bust. If the USA made it law to include all taxes to the shelf price, customer confidence at grass roots would be much higher.

[@atps7057]

Precisely, the same thing happened to me at Mullinax Ford in Apopka Florida. Advertised priced of my 23 F150 MSRP was 64k including discounts down to 56K. All paperwork, including gap insurance has an MSRP of 61 not 64, what changed? And nowhere and at no time was I informed the 1.9% financing didn’t include a $1500 rebate that was including in sales price advertised until after financing. Additionally, they advertise no fees that you only paid tax and title and provide you with out the door prices. I was in fact, charged document fees. Bait and switch!

[@kevinmcguire1049]

Dealers found guilty of false advertising they should lose the manufacturers franchise. Such behavior damages the manufacturers brand. If they did this a few times every dealer would get the message.

Or...as Ray has pointed out...maybe the "Dealer Principal" (along with sales mgr/F&I guys) should go to trial and do some jail time to verify that they and others get the message.

[@Jillousa]

I had an excellent experience where bought my car because the price advertised was the starting point and I was able to get my car for about $700 less than the advertised price. Everything we negotiated was down in paper and everything promised was delivered. I now understood why this dealership had such a high reputation. So glad people recommended me to use them. My car ended up being a few miles and a few days outside of their short warranty that they had for used cars but they still handled a problem that happened with my steering. Excellent service. Excellent customer service. I didn't feel super haggled or anything because the negotiation didn't take long at all. They allowed me to take the car to get it inspected. And I'm a woman that went in there by myself negotiating my car for the very first time. Wish there were more places like that. It helped that I knew the salesman but he was just an acquaintance.

[@garfieldsmith332]

There should be a law that states the price shown/advertised by the dealer is an "all in price". The price includes all add-ons, dealer fees, options, packages, etc. The only additions would be sales tax, government fees, state registration. These 3 not included as they are not taxable and the sales tax might be lower after the haggling is done on the out the door price. The all-in price would be the price where the haggling is done. And all purchase document would have a clause that if any other options or fees or anything else is added to the purchase document, where by "accident", or was "forgotten" the buyer can get them for nothing or can walk and get all deposits back. Also goes for leasing. The Real Total cost of the lease including deposit and buyout must be shown. And all in big bold type.

The $60,000 fine leveled at Toyota dealerships is inconsequential. When this sum is apportioned among all the dealerships, it amounts to a meager $5,000 per dealer. In the fast-paced automotive industry, where significant sums of money are exchanged and profits are substantial-especially over the span of a few years-such a fine is scarcely a deterrent. It is unlikely to have a meaningful impact on the business practices or the financial health of the individual dealerships.

There is no deception I can see in either the price for the service or the scope and nature of the services offered. Do you have a counter, or are you just gonna double down on red herrings?

The trolls are out in force today.

@@jerrylundegaard2592 I love a channel that makes the trolls rise up and attack. :) It shows which messages are the truth that the troll masters want to suppress.

I am suspect of any new Toyota. My 2022 Camry had a mapp sensor failure at highway speeds. Downshifted so violently it nearly left the highway. Faulkner Toyota said it was caused by a rodent chew. No evidence at all of wires chewed on. The only rodent under the hood of my Camry was the dealers technician. Excellent way for Toyota to deny component failures with their products. Cost me $300 to get my car back.

Hey guys, can I make a special request? Can you please have Scotty Kilmer on your show? A conversation between him and pops would be priceless.

Recognizing that you lived in AZ, l suspect you know that there two groups who impact legislative decisions, builders and the auto dealer consortium. That is why The action against the Tucson dealer was because it was so egregious it could not be ignored.

Just news. Good to see. I think the majority of viewers of your channel appreciate the “just news” approach. You should ask people to post their ages in the comment section. My supposition is that your viewers have an average age north of 55. I am 65 BTW.

My state's attorney general's job may be to look at for the citizens, but he looks out only for himself. He and his rich buddies have this state wired.

LOL, politicians get "lobbied" by corporations, they only get limited tax money from citizens. Who do you think has the most sway with them.
