Evidence

The $997 Documentation Fee is itemized inside new-vehicle prices (stack arithmetic verified), but used-vehicle disclaimers state the price excludes a $997 dealer conveyance fee, and used vehicles carry a mandatory $399 Accident Avoidance System charge disclosed only in disclaimer text. Checked October 18, 2026.

Checked October 18, 2026Grades are scored from the dealer's own published pricing.

What this dealer does well

  • Itemizes its $997 fee inside new-vehicle prices with verified stack arithmetic.

What would change this grade

  • At $997 the fee level (2/30) caps the grade; aligning the used-car disclaimer with the including price stacks and removing the mandatory $399 add-on would lift it only into the 53–63 range.
