AG Campbell today issued an advisory alerting motor vehicle dealerships of their legal obligations to ensure the advertised price of motor vehicles reflects the full cost, including all non-optional fees such as document preparation fees. 

“Massachusetts law requires accurate and transparent pricing in advertising. A vehicle is one of the most significant purchases many residents will ever make, and they deserve clear, upfront pricing, not hidden fees that are only added at the end of a transaction. This advisory will help dealerships comply with our laws so that consumers can make informed decisions about where to spend their money.” -AG Campbell
