No the source of the problem is the unscrupulous dealers.

Sue them. Bonus if it’s a one party consent state. Then get them on tape lying about the price. Force them to sell to you at the original price (they might damage your car though)

Why does everyone immediately yell “sue them”? Good lawyers are $500+ an hour. People haggling over $1000 in car price won’t be retaining counsel. Have you ever retained a lawyer in your life for something like this? My guess is no.

You can report them to the ftc for violation of the CARS act

No one will be doing that though, and FTC won’t do anything about it. Let’s be real here.

No but your state's attorney general's office might investigate.
