FTC Targets Long Island Dealership Over Hidden Fees and Misleading Car Prices

A vehicle advertised at an attractive price can become considerably more expensive by the time a customer reaches the dealership’s finance office. The Federal Trade Commission is taking action against Stream Auto Outlet, a Long Island dealership accused of using misleading advertised prices that did not reflect the actual cost of purchasing a vehicle.
