Still no written price

Each attempt was a request for the out-the-door price on a real vehicle in their inventory. Per-channel attempts are spaced at least 7 days apart, and total outreach is capped at quarterly limits to avoid harassment.

How this compares

89.3% of Chrysler dealers in Ohio respond within 24 hours. Carvana Lorain replied too — but 87 days on, still hasn’t put a price in writing.

Based on 486 Chrysler dealers contacted in Ohio. Median response time among responders: 0.4 hours.

Why this matters

A written OTD price is a number you can hold a dealer to. Pricing only given by phone or in person changes when you walk in — that’s the whole point of refusing to put it in writing. Dealers who won’t quote OTD over text or email are choosing to keep the final price negotiable until you’re sitting at their desk.
