How do dealerships rip you off?
When dealers sense hesitation, they’ll sometimes try to force buyers off the fence by telling them that the deal they offered is only good for that day, or that another buyer is interested in the same car. This is their attempt to force you into an emotion-based decision. There are always more cars and other dealers.
Are dealer fees negotiable?
There are some fees that dealerships charge that are negotiable. Items like warranties, underbody coatings, interior coatings, dealer prep, and advertising charges are all negotiable. You should know however, that dealership fees can differ from state-to-state and brand-to-brand.
Why do dealers charge so much?
The more warranty work a dealer does, the more likely the labor rate is high. The dealers have also found that customer pay service is quite profitable. So they compromise on the labor rate they would like from Mazda, and the rate customers are willing to pay out of pocket.
Do dealerships service other brands?
Most dealers that do the whole “all makes and models” deal usually have a full Alldata (or similar service) subscription which has all the TSB’s among other things listed for a vast majority of makes & models. If we’re talking a brand spanking new 2014 Ford then a Ford dealer would be optimal.
Dealership service advisors typically work on nothing but commission, which means they have an economic incentive to get you to buy unneeded repair services. But some people trust dealerships and have all service performed there, including recommended services.
If your mechanic failed to repair the problem with your car, you may be able to get a refund. Insurers know the ropes of legal options should a mechanic not deliver the quality of work that was paid for, but you can take some steps on your own.
