According to Christopher Mufarrige, director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection, these practices are a clear breach of federal regulations and will not be tolerated. The letter, sent in March, highlights a range of suspicious tactics, from artificially inflating prices to concealing fees and charges. With the FTC cracking down on these alleged practices, dealerships are now facing increased scrutiny and potential consequences for their business practices."
