Buying a car is time-consuming, confusing and opaque, and the Federal Trade Commission has published a rule which would bring long overdue changes to the marketplace: the Combating Auto Retail Scams (CARS) Rule. Among other important things, the CARS Rule requires dealers to be honest and up-front about the price of the car and bans junk fees in auto sales.
The CARS Rule is under attack from powerful special interest groups. Advocates have an important voice and will be a critical part of protecting this Rule in the coming months. Below is a link to our impactful and informative webinar about the CARS Rule, where experts from national consumer organizations break down what the CARS Rule does (and does not do), what challenges the FTC will face, and how attendees can support the CARS Rule.
