Car Dealer Fee Checker
Enter the exact wording from a dealer worksheet to separate likely government charges, dealer-controlled fees, optional products and unclear items.
Enter each line exactly as shown.
Use positive numbers for charges. Use negative numbers for discounts, rebates, trade allowance or down payment.
Documentation and processing fees
These labels commonly describe dealer-controlled charges. Even when a state regulates their disclosure or amount, they should not be combined with taxes, title and registration.
Optional products
GAP, service contracts, protection packages, etching, wheel-and-tire plans and similar products should be separately identified. Confirm whether each was requested and whether it can be removed.
Unclear labels
A vague line is not proof of wrongdoing. Ask the dealer to explain what the charge covers, who receives it and whether it is required to complete the purchase.
