    CARS Rule

    The thought of driving off the lot in a new car or truck can be both stressful and exhilarating. But if the dealer engages in dishonest practices, the process can get as stressful as a pile-up on your morning commute. The FTC’s Combating Auto Retail Scams (CARS) Rule, which was announced this week, requires transparency in the vehicle shopping process. And it’ll drive home major savings, too, to the tune of an estimated $3.4 billion per year for people shopping for a new vehicle. And it will save consumers an estimated 72 million hours each year.
