Is the 4S dealership service fee mandatory?
1 Answers
4S dealership service fees are not mandatory payments. Below is a detailed introduction regarding service fees: Definition of service fee: The so-called car purchase service fee charged by 4S dealerships is generally a service charge for handling related procedures, typically imposed on customers financing their vehicle purchase. Rights protection methods: Whether purchasing with full payment or through installment loans, 4S dealerships have no right to demand any service fees from customers. If encountering a dealership requesting such fees, consumers can report the violation to the industrial and commercial bureau to protect their legitimate rights. Prevention methods: When purchasing a vehicle, pay close attention to pricing details. Carefully read every clause in the contract, have the salesperson clearly explain each required payment, ensure all prices are specified in the contract, and only then proceed with paying the deposit or full amount.
