The FTC and Connecticut Join Forces for Action Against Nissan Dealer

In this episode of his "Clearly Conspicuous" podcast series, "The FTC and Connecticut Join Forces for Action Against Nissan Dealer," consumer protection attorney Anthony DiResta discusses a recent action taken by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the state of Connecticut against Manchester City Nissan (MCN) for allegedly deceiving consumers and charging unauthorized fees. He examines the complaint's specific allegations, including tacking on certification charges for pre-certified vehicles, charging for bogus add-ons without consent and misrepresenting government-imposed taxes and fees. Mr. DiResta also emphasizes the importance of transparent pricing practices and warns that junk fees are currently a key focus of the FTC and the Biden Administration.
